Any way to reduce consumption without reducing relief?

Yeah, in the future I plan to grow aloe as well as some herbs that will partly be distilled, so I’ll have 100% confidence in my product. But til then, gotta find off the shelf. I do always read ingredients, probably obsessively. But better save then sorry. You’re right on the scent being more aggravating. I tend to not have much skin reaction. So I’m not the best gauge, but straight essential oils will be far to irritating. If I can find some aloe around (I know I have some) I’ll try that, and then that plus a drop or two of oil to the whole 1/3 Oz roller bottle. If this works out well, I’d look into a steel roller ball. Plastic cap is ok, but the roller ball is in direct contact (I even have some RSO deposits collecting there) with the DSMO and I’d rather not find out it’s leeching from the plastic. But yeah, at least it doesn’t have to be in constant contact!

Plastic always leeches, but its good to minimize.
We are getting it from everywhere so not really necessary to add more if you can avoid it.

Completely agree, although that does stray a bit from the topic at hand, efficiency.
Chemical and me are broke/between grows.

If I could freely buy a few jars of bud or some brownies, everything would be peachy.
DMSO seem like a very efficient delivery method, although you miss the smoking sensation.

Plus; my main motive is an alternative to edibles as I get very little effect off them. I have a liver enzyme disorder that causes odd drug metabolism.

Not making them correctly or they’ve really under dosed!!

I never turn them down, I just don’t depend on them myself. I’ve had various edibles from the dispensary, from friends, fuck from strangers that were just friends of friends. When I made them, it was as simple as mixing 1g of into brownie mix in place of some of the oil. Had plenty of old fashion pot brownies. Edibles made with distillate. All the same- meh. It’s like a joint that takes half an hour. You don’t get 100% efficiency, joint you lose some to smoke, edibles to your liver. And for me they both last about 1-2 hours. RSO gives me closer to 3-4 hours which is great to let me get some sleep.

Are you eating fatty or carb filled foods prior to taking it? Because that can def fuck it up!!

Yeah, tried it with some good ole KFC, just chicken, no potatoes or biscuit with it. That’s what you want right? I’ve never heard carbs brought into the situation though, you got me curious.

I have some pretty bad esophageal swelling, so eating isn’t my favorite activity lately. If I can figure out anything to eat, I won’t be able to eat much, so I was going for high nutrient density. I eat a lot of nuts because of this so high fat, but I don’t eat hardly any carbs.
