Distilled water is a likely diluent for the formula. Although it does not state if the ingredients are by weight or by volume. DMSO is a liquid so I would assume that one is by volume. Since Vit C and Glutathione are solids then he could mean by weight. Why not call the pharmacy and ask for more information?
Improved vision is a known effect of DMSO use, even when not applying it to the eyes. There are some reports of DMSO in treating cataracts, retinitis pigmentosa and macular degeneration summarized with original citations on p 68 of the updated (1993) edition of "DMSO Nature's Healer" by Dr Morton Walker. The reports on cataracts used DMSO and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) or DMSO alone directly in the eye. You may want to contact www.dmso.org for more information on DMSO use. Glutathione and SOD are both powerful antioxidants so there is some similarity of formulas. Vit C is an antioxidant as well. If I were playing around with Vit C in my eyes I would not use Ascorbic acid unless you have some way to buffer the solution, you want to keep the pH close to neutral. Or test a buffered form of Vit C like Calcium Ascorbate. The book is available from Amazon. Garnet PS- Here is the address of a DMSO list I started recently if you would like to join us. Hope you don't mind my forwarding this to the list. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/DimethylSulfoxide-DMSO/ On Sat, 2004-02-07 at 19:50, Wayne Fugitt wrote: > In the Feb issue of Second Opinion by Dr. Robert J.
