In this unimposing book, the author, Herb "Roi" Richards PhD., releases information about the alternative health approaches to using dimethyl sulfoxide. According to millions of DMSO users, they have used this naturally occurring herbal solvent extracted from trees to overcome many health challenges. The author shares the recipes for these remedies, as well as his own experiences using this inexpensive natural substance on and in his body.
If you have heard about DMSO and investigated it thoroughly, all your efforts may have left you with many unanswered questions. This is the book that might answer your questions.
You will learn about DMSO's origin, how it is used, and how not to use it. The author also presents other natural substances that work well when combined with DMSO, and recipes for applying the various mixtures to a variety of maladies.
Surprisingly, the author proposes that DMSO can (and should) be used to replace using needles to inject various materials into the body. According to the author, a recipe could be made, combining DMSO with most any substance that one might like to be injected, then applied topically to achieve similar results. Using DMSO as the delivery agent, you just rub what you want to inject on the body's surface area, and the DMSO takes it through the protective layers of the skin, and into the bloodstream, body mass, and/or bone marrow.
Many books have been written about DMSO, though not about how millions of people are using it. The eye-opening introduction to the many possible health-related uses of this simple inexpensive herbal ingredient makes it standout in comparison to the other books that have been written. Add to that, Richards' easy to administer recipes, and it may be the most valuable addition to any home health emergency library.
I'm really glad I had read more scientific books about this substance prior to reading this. The whole book reads like a snake oil salesman pitch. DMSO is certainly as utilizable as the author states, but there's a lot of personal viewpoints inserted all throughout the book. I didn't like how the use of silver ion water was CONSTANTLY stated as a suitable bedfellow with DMSO and hardly mentioned as it's own thing, or how our bodies don't have a method of dealing with silver and it can stay in our skin forever. Nor is it mentioned that yes, silver water can destroy pathogens, but also doesn't know the difference between healthy human cells and pathogens. Furthermore, I chased the statement of all tumors are a fungus that grows on a mutant cell, and it turns out, not always or even typically the case. I don't doubt the validity of a lot of the recipes in the book, knowing how DMSO actually works beforehand, but it really was difficult to take completely seriously. I feel like a (citation needed) comment is required at the end in reference to this completely unsupported with data guidebook.
DMSO Dimethylsulfoxide for Humans: Recipes & Treatment is an interesting and thought-provoking book for readers who want to explore the history, proposed uses, and broader discussion surrounding DMSO. I appreciated that the book brings together a range of information in one place and encourages readers to learn more about a substance that many people may not have encountered before.
The subject matter is presented in a way that makes it easy to follow, even for readers who are approaching the topic for the first time. I particularly enjoyed the focus on practical information and the effort to explain different aspects of DMSO without making the material unnecessarily difficult to understand.
What I found most valuable was how the book encourages curiosity and further research. It provides plenty of material to consider and can serve as a starting point for readers interested in learning about the history and discussion surrounding DMSO.
Overall, this was an informative and engaging read. Anyone interested in alternative-health literature or the historical discussion surrounding DMSO may find the book worth exploring. As with any health-related material, readers should evaluate the information carefully and consult qualified healthcare professionals before trying treatments or preparations discussed in the book.

I recently had a severe fall which landed me in the hospital. Relieved to learn that nothing was broken, I went home the next day with a massive hematoma on my backside. It took two weeks to wean off the drugs and clear my head. In researching alternatives to drugs, I came across this gem of a read about DMSO.
Excellent book written in a way that everybody can understand. About the fourth book I have read on DMSO and by far the best if you want to understand how to use DMSO.
It does not tell you how to extract DMSO yourself. But how to dilute DMSO for specific use. While useful I would have preferred the process on making my own
