Several new scientific reports have come out regarding the efficacy of essential oils in eradicating cancer cells. The latest two available on Pubmed.gov involve Cedarwood and Frankincense essential oils. You can read more on our blog: On Cedarwood, research has shown its ability to cause cell death in a line of leukemia cells. In this study, several species of Cedarwood were evaluated for their efficacy in eradicating the K562 cell line, which is a variety of leukemia. Of the cedarwood oils mentioned, Ananda carries Moroccan Atlantic Cedarwood, and we may carry Himalayan Cedarwood in the future.

Frankincense is the most widely studied essential oil for its anti-cancer properties. A study titled "Boswellia sacra essential oil induces tumor cell-specific apoptosis and suppresses tumor aggressiveness in cultured human breast cancer cells" by Suhail MM, Wu W, Cao A, Mondalek FG, Fung KM, Shih PT, Fang YT, Woolley C, Young G, and Lin HK, was published in BMC Complement Altern Med. While Frankincense has been shown to cause natural cell death to malignant cells in every organ system tested, this was the first to be performed specifically on breast cancer cells.

In fact, we have had clients tell us that while they were making no healing progress using traditional methods, once they'd started regularly massaging a 10% concentration of Frankincense Carteri CO2 in Kukui oil on location, that they began to make healing progress -- so much so that their oncologies could not believe the Frankincense had the possibility to affect their illness in this manner. Yet the number of studies continues to accumulate. One of the wonderful hallmarks of the use of the oil is that healthy cells are left unaffected at the concentration used, while aptoptosis occurs in malignant cells.
