I’ve been applying DDR Prime, Frankincense, On Guard, and Wild Orange (only at night) on my liver for years to deal with the cancer. The last two week, my wife and I have been dealing with sore throat, coughing, etc. I decided to look into DDR prime a little bit more closely and was surprised how beneficial it was for other things.

I told my wife to try applying DDR on her chest and neck and it offered immediate relief and she’s recovered. The congestion and throat issue hit me and I applied DDR to my chest and throat and again I feel its impact. You may want to get some for your medicine cabinet. Everybody reacts differently to medications, etc. so I would be interested in finding out if others find it as beneficial as I do.

When I was first diagnosed with cancer, I came across a viral email that claimed to be sharing information from a Johns Hopkins Medical Center newsletter from 2007 about holistic approaches to cancer.

Since then, the newsletter has been reported to be a “hoax” by Johns Hopkins. Regardless if it’s real or not, there are some interesting excerpts from the email. Like anything else I share, you should do your own research but I personally made some of these lifestyle changes during my fight against cancer.

“Sugar is a cancer-feeder. By cutting off sugar it cuts off one important food supply to the cancer cells.”

“Milk causes the body to produce mucus, especially in the gastro-intestinal tract. Cancer feeds on mucus. By cutting off milk and substituting with unsweetened soy milk cancer cells are being starved.”

“Cancer cells thrive in an acid environment. A meat-based diet is acidic and it is best to eat fish, and a little chicken rather than beef or pork. Meat also contains livestock antibiotics, growth hormones and parasites, which are all harmful, especially to people with cancer.”

“A diet made of 80% fresh vegetables and juice, whole grains, seeds, nuts and a little fruits help put the body into an alkaline environment. About 20% can be from cooked food including beans. Fresh vegetable juices provide live enzymes that are easily absorbed and reach down to cellular levels within 15 minutes to nourish and enhance growth of healthy cells. To obtain live enzymes for building healthy cells try and drink fresh vegetable juice (most vegetables including bean sprouts) and eat some raw vegetables 2 or 3 times a day. Enzymes are destroyed at temperatures of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C).”

“Avoid coffee, tea, and chocolate, which have high caffeine. Green tea is a better alternative and has cancer-fighting properties. Water – best to drink purified water, or filtered, to avoid known toxins and heavy metals in tap water. Distilledwater is acidic. Avoid it.”

“Meat protein is difficult to digest and requires a lot of digestive enzymes. Undigested meat remaining in the intestines become putrefied and leads to more toxic buildup.”

“Cancer cell walls have a tough protein covering. By refraining from or eating less meat it frees more enzymes to attack the protein walls of cancer cells and allows the body’s killer cells to destroy the cancer cells.”

“Some supplements build up the immune system (IP6 , Flor-ssence , Essiac , anti-oxidants , vitamins , minerals , EFAs, etc.) to enable the body’s own killer cells to destroy cancer cells. Other supplements like vitamin E are known to cause apoptosis, or programmed cell death, the body’s normal method of disposing of damaged, unwanted, or unneeded cells.”

“Cancer is a disease of the mind, body, and spirit. A proactive and positive spirit will help the cancer warrior be a survivor. Anger, un-forgiveness and bitterness put the body into a stressful and acidic environment.”

“Cancer cells cannot thrive in an oxygenated environment. Exercising daily, and deep breathing help to get more oxygen down to the cellular level. Oxygen therapy is another means employed to destroy cancer cells.”

Turmeric (Curcumin) and Boswellia Acid (comes from the boswellia tree that gives us Frankincense oil) are both independently amazing in terms of their health benefits. But apparently researchers have found that when boswellia serrata is paired with turmeric curcumin, the synergy of the pair seems to be more effective than using the single purified compounds alone. It is the combination of these two ingredients, working together, that raises their individual health benefits exponentially. 

You can read an interesting article on anti-aging and turmeric here.

I just talked to my doctor about these claims and he agrees.

I just started taking CurcuminMD by 1MD which combines both in one capsule. It’s also great for your skin!!!

Writeups on Boswellia acid are just as eye opening. Studies show that boswellia may reduce inflammation and may be useful in treating the following conditions:

• osteoarthritis (OA)
• rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
• asthma
• inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)”

My wife and I are getting more occurrences of skin cancer these days so I am doing more research on using essential oils for this disease. It took 5 months of topical application of frankincense to get rid of the cancer in this test case.

Introduction

Basal-cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common form of skin cancer. Incidence of BCC is rising rapidly worldwide associated with a significant increase in health care costs. Various treatment options are available for patients diagnosed with BCC ranging from surgery, electrodessication, radiation, photodynamic therapy to non-invasive therapeutic approaches.

Traditionally being used for aromatherapy, based on the abundance of highly volatile, aromatic compounds, frankincense essential oil prepared by hydrodistillation of Boswellia sacra gum resins, also possesses anti-cancer activity that can potentially provide non-surgical and non-invasive treatment option for BCC by topical application.

This case report discusses the management of BCC of the skin using frankincense ( Boswellia sacra ) essential oil.

Case report

We present a case of a male patient, with two foci (arm and chest) of BCC, treated with local and topical application of frankincense essential oil several times a day, for a period of 20 weeks. Biopsies were performed before and after frankincense essential oil treatment. Pathological study demonstrated total resolution of the BCC on the arm and substantial resolution in the BCC of the chest after treatment. Significant increase in apoptotic cells was observed in the residual carcinoma in the chest. Topical application of frankincense essential oil did not cause redness, swelling, erosion, crusts, vesicles, squamae, itching, tingling, or any other local or systemic side effects in this patient.

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.

Just because your tap water meets federal safety guidelines doesn’t mean it’s actually safe to drink ….

Tap water toxicity is pretty scary. We don’t want to imagine that something we rely on so heavily has the potential to adversely affect our health.
