How long can one store dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or methylsulfonylmethane (MSM)?
DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) and MSM (methylsulfonylmethane) are both organic sulfur compounds, but they have different molecular structures. DMSO has a sulfur atom, while MSM has two sulfur atoms. DMSO is also a liquid at room temperature, while MSM is a solid.
Both DMSO and MSM are absorbed into the body and broken down into their respective sulfur components. These sulfur components are then used by the body for various functions, such as promoting healthy joints and reducing inflammation.
While DMSO and MSM are generally considered safe, some people may experience side effects such as skin irritation or a garlic-like taste in the mouth when using DMSO. MSM may also cause mild digestive issues in some individuals. It is always best to consult with a healthcare professional before using these compounds.
Yes, DMSO and MSM can be used together as they both have similar benefits for the body. In fact, some studies have shown that combining these compounds can have a synergistic effect and may enhance their individual benefits.
DMSO and MSM should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It is also important to keep them in a sealed container to prevent contamination. DMSO can also absorb other substances, so it is best to store it separately from other chemicals.
