New Frankincense Study for Skin Cancer

A new study finds that Topical application of Frankincense cures basal cell skin cancer. A special thanks to Director of Clinical Education, Barb Picciano for passing along this information. In the study they used frankincense essential oil topically. Here is the conclusion:

 

Conclusion: Local application of frankincense essential oil may provide a non-surgical treatment alternative, with no or minimal side effect for carcinoma in situ, minimally invasive carcinoma and pre-cancerous conditions such as actinic keratosis. A study with larger number of patients with both squamous-cell carcinoma and BCC is required to confirm our current findings.
