I remember nearly 50 years ago I watched a 60 Minutes episode about DMSO. As I recall back then it was controversial because it was being used as a
miracle cure for racing horses (in the veterinary world). The 60 Minutes MSM angle at the time was that DMSO should be banned. I can remember
thinking, even back then, that the whole thing sounded like a ruse to outlaw something which actually worked in favor of gobs of things which didn't
work but were expensive to buy. At the time, DMSO was an unregulated substance by the FDA. I think the angle was, if it could be used on horses,
that someday humans might try to use it...or maybe were. It struck me that the hidden message was...but the pharmaceutical industry couldn't make a
profit off of it and thus it was "bad, just because".
It's funny you would mention DMSO. I was thinking this very thing just the other day. I wondered if you could still get it. I was actually thinking
about trying some of it for my dog (and possibly myself). As I recall, if you rub a little bit of it on your skin within minutes you get a garlic
taste in your mouth and your breath smells like garlic.
Where can you get DMSO? I wasn't able to find it in my brief searches. As memory serves me, it was widely available back in the
late 70's and early 80's (and this was big pharma's main objection to it...that there was no way to mark it up 10,000%...due to its wide availability
and cheap cost.).
edit- Nevermind, I found where to get it.
