DMSO Cold Sore Remedy

DMSO cold sore remedy has been suggested as a herpes or cold sore cure on so many websites that I've decided to review it.

DMSO is a colorless liquid derived from lignin, the material that bonds together the cells of trees. It has the ability to penetrate the body instantly, even when applied topically. It also has a particular smell, usually qualified as garlic-like. DMSO has been used as a carrier product for herpes medications in Europe and is still used as a herpes cream in Spain .

Here are some of the conditions DMSO was suggested for: Alzheimer's, lupus, arthritis, fibromalgia, pancreatitis, scleroderma and herpes. You can get more information at Dr Stanley's website. Dr. Jacob is the medical doctor who first studied the anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties of MSM and DMSO. He has developed a very strong interest in DMSO over the years.

You should know, however, that DMSO cold sore remedy is still not acclaimed. Many papers have been written against the health benefits of DMSO especially in the United States. It is illegal to sell DMSO as a supplement. That is why health stores sell it as a solvent. Anyone who buys DMSO takes the risk of using something of low-quality. Dr Jacob’s own DMSO cream may be an exception. If you consider using H202 (hydrogen peroxide) and DMSO for cold sores, I highly recommend you use Jacob's Lab DMSO.

Not only can DMSO penetrate the skin, but also carry other elements through the skin with itself. That's why using DMSO for cold sores could be very dangerous if you used impure products.

Research suggests that DMSO mixed with hydrogen peroxide could be effective in the treatment of herpes when applied topically to the affected areas. My personal experience confirms DMSO coldsore treatment potential. I have been able to stop about 80% of herpes outbreaks at prodrome time when combined with hydrogen peroxide. It's the combination of hydrogen peroxide and DMSO that works not DMSO alone. For your safety you must never mix DMSO with anything else than food grade hydrogen peroxide.
