QUESTIONS ABOUT TED'S REMEDIES FOR COPD

Posted by Bill (St. Louis) on 02/28/2009

Dear Ted: First let me offer the highest level of gratitude possible for your tremendous contribution to natural health. You are truly a God-send! Thank you, thank you. I am writing to see if you have time to answer a few questions regarding COPD treatment using DMSO and MSM. From what I have been able to piece together about treating COPD (from smoking), I plan on the following:

1.) Purchase 99.9% Pure DMSO (Liquid)
2.) Purchase 99.9% Pure MSM (Liquid)

Question: You mention dissolving 250 mg of MSM in one glass of water, this sounds like a powder form of MSM? Can I use the Liquid, and if so, would it be about one Tablespoon in one glass of water?

3.) Mix DMSO at beginning ratio of 30% DMSO, 70% water (if tolerated, increasing to 50%), and inhale through a nebulizer.

4.) Ingest the MSM, one Tablespoon per glass of water.

Question: You also mention inhaling the MSM in the same manner as the DMSO. Would this also be at a starting ration of 30% MSM?

Question: Which do you recommend, MSM in water, or MSM in nebulizer (In addition to DMSO in nebulizer), or all three?

Ted: I am sorry to learn you are not getting the feedback you need-- I assure you that I will forward the results of this COPD treatment experiment.

Thank you, sir. Bill in St. Louis

Sorry about late responses. The volume of email are large for me. I am struggling to answer them as many as possible (when time warrants me!)

A DMSO liquid generally works better then an MSM liquid. MSM is often side effect free, it won't cause irritations and garlic breath. In practice Dr. Jacob, for example use both. But DMSO is limited by how much a person can handle. The dose I use are far smaller then what present conventional mredicne uses to remain free of side effects in terms of DMSO use. The MSM, can be use at a larger dose.

As to the dose it's generally best to start with low dose FIRST such as 250 mg for example. This allows the body to get use to and find a proper initial dose for the individual to be able to tolerate, especially the DMSO. Some people report being thirsty for example after taking them. So once the body is used to it, furhter larger dose might be considered.

The DMSO later on, I used if taken internally is on the low side, but it's one tablespoon dissolved in a one glass of water and MSM can be taken for more, such as 2-4 tablespoon of MSM liquid or MSM powder. Those are probably the maximum dose. The measurement are not exact.

Generally speaking, it's my hope to get some sort of DMSO such as between 10% -80% to some sort of mist or aerosol spray directly to the lungs a couple of times a day to slowly dissolve them into the bloodstream and once it goes in the body removes them with DMSO taken internally along with MSM. At least that's the plan.

It is my expectation that granulated lecithin may also further help. If breathing is still a problem, it's quite possible, if it is serious, a 500 mg Niacin non-timed release are technically safer, and this helps the capillaries to both expand and help with the breathing.

Question: You mention dissolving 250 mg of MSM in one glass of water, this sounds like a powder form of MSM?

A powdered or liquid form is fine. However, it's should ideally be diluted with water to buffer out and thus reducing any side effects assciated with sudden thirst of water as well as sudden clearing of fluids so the body can flush them out with more liquids.

Can I use the Liquid, and if so, would it be about one Tablespoon in one glass of water?

One tablespoon liquid ore powder is always dissolve in water helps the body to buffer them.

3.) Mix DMSO at beginning ratio of 30% DMSO, 70% water (if tolerated, increasing to 50%), and inhale through a nebulizer.

That's the average and a conservative concentration that has the least problems.

4.) Ingest the MSM, one Tablespoon per glass of water.

This is a median dose with a reasonable water dilution.

Question: You also mention inhaling the MSM in the same manner as the DMSO. Would this also be at a starting ration of 30% MSM?

MSM always mixed with water too, but you use less water with MSM such as instead of full glass it can be just 1/2 glass. DMSO taken internally has more side effects from garlic smell and skin irritation the MSM. MSM is a lot easier to use, but it doesn't dissolve the tar as readily.

Question: Which do you recommend, MSM in water, or MSM in nebulizer (In addition to DMSO in nebulizer), or all three?

As a nebulizer I prefer a DMSO only.

Hello there. I just thought I should comment here regarding DMSO use. I've been doing a lot of research regarding this and have found important information that needs to be added here. DMSO enhances the effects of many drugs, including blood thinners. Therefore, if you are taking prescription meds, I would advise you to be cautious. I almost started using DMSO until I found this information. As I am taking a blood thinner, I don't believe this would be a safe option for me.
