DMSO is a potent antioxidant, scavenging the highly reactive molecules that contribute to disease and aging, known as free radicals. It  is used as a topical analgesic to block pain signals. 

DMSO has the unusual ability to depress the freezing point of water dramatically, while maintaining viability with many cell and tissue types. It is a sulfur-containing organic compound that is derived from MSM, and can be used internally or externally. 

Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH3)2SO. It can uniquely provide solubility to certain very polar small molecules, such as simple biomolecules with multiple protic functional groups.
