Frankincense and cancer



Studies on Frankincense and Cancer

History:
Frankincense trees were considered extremely valuable during ancient times and their location was often a matter of state secret. Egyptians used the incense to fumigate their homes, for ritual incense and the oil for cosmetics. It was used as a holy anointing oil and as a general cure-all for all diseases. It was also used to enhance meditation and elevate spiritual consciousness. History shows it was used for embalming and as a perfume AND formed an important part of the Sabbath day offering. Frankincense or olibanum was mentioned inthe Scriptures over 50 times and is found in the books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Chronicles, Nehemiah,Song of Solomon, Isaiah, Matthew, and Revelations.

Actions:
The actions of frankincense include anti-inflammatory, anti-tumoral, immune-stimulant, antidepressant and muscle relaxing. It stimulates the limbic system as well as the hypothalamus, pineal and pituitary glands. It is strongly anti-viral, antioxidant, antifungal, antibacterial, antiseptic and expectorant oil. Frankincense has the ability to relax and revitalize at the same time.


Research:
Cancer Research Using Frankincense

There are a few researchers studying the effects of frankincense on various cancers with some degree of success. In vitro effects show inhibition or stimulation of cell proliferation depending on the concentration of frankincense oil in the growth media.

  • A recent study conducted at the University of Oklahoma showed that frankincense kills bladder cancer cells without harming surrounding tissue.
  • Studies are showing frankincense to be a strong immune-stimulant with some claiming that frankincense has the ability to repair DNA.
  • A Chinese study conducted in 2000, indicated that Boswellia has “anti-carcinogenic and anti-tumor activities.” These boswellic acids from frankincense inhibited “a variety of malignant cells” in people suffering from leukemia and brain tumors.
  • The Cancer Research Institute of the University of Nevada treated cervical cancer with frankincense, in which “there was 72% inhibition and growth of non-cancerous cells.”
  • Other studies have shown that boswellic acids from frankincense exert anti-prolifertive activity toward a variety of malignant cells.
  • Another study showed that boswellic acids are potent apoptotic agents to cancer cells and another one shows that Boswellic acids from frankincense gum exhibit potent cytotoxic activity againstCNS tumors.


Why Hasn’t the General Public Heard about This?
It sounds incredulous but the anti-cancerous effects of frankincense has been known for thousands of years. Does it work for everyone? No, but compared to the effects of chemotherapy, frankincense DOES show great promise now and in the future. Frankincense will never be promoted for the breakthrough that it is because there is no money to be made in its promotion. Frankincense is expensive in comparison to other therapeutic grade oils but “cheap” in comparison to drugs like chemotherapy.

Scientists have observed and do agree that there is some agent within frankincense which stops cancer spreading, and which induces cancerous cells to close themselves down. Immunologist Mahmoud Suhail is quoted "Cancer starts when the DNA code within the cell's nucleus becomes corrupted. It seems frankincense has a re-set function. It can tell the cell what the right DNA code should be. Frankincense separates the 'brain' of the cancerous cell - the nucleus - from the 'body' - the cytoplasm, and closes down the nucleus to stop it reproducing corrupted DNA codes."--Currently, with chemotherapy, doctors blast the area around a tumour to kill the cancer, but that also kills healthy cells, and weakens the patient. Treatment with frankincense could eradicate the cancerous cells alone and let the others live.The task now is to isolate the agent within frankincense which, apparently, works this wonder



History Medical Research (Bosellia serrata)
In Ayurvedic medicine Indian frankincense (Boswellia serrata), commonly referred to as "dhoop," has been used for hundreds of years for treating arthritis, healing wounds, strengthening the female hormone system, and purifying the atmosphere from undesirable germs. The use of frankincense in Ayurveda is called "dhoopan". In Indian culture, it is suggested that burning frankincense everyday in house brings good health.

Standardized preparations of Indian frankincense from Boswellia serrata are being investigated in scientific studies as a treatment for chronic inflammatory diseases such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and osteoarthritis. Initial clinical study results indicate efficacy of incense preparations for Crohn's disease. For therapy trials in ulcerativecolitis, asthma, and rheumatoid arthritis there are only isolated reports and pilot studies from which there is not yet sufficient evidence of safety and efficacy. Similarly, the long-term effects and side effects of taking frankincense has not yet been scientifically investigated. Boswellic acid in vitro antiproliferative effects on various tumor cell lines (such as melanoma, glioblastomas, liver cancer) are based on induction of apoptosis. A positive effect has been found in the use of incense on the accompanying specimens of brain tumors, although in smaller clinical trials. Some scientists say the results are due to methodological flaws. The main active compound of Indian incense is viewed as being boswellic acid.

As of May 2008 FASEB Journal announced that Johns Hopkins University and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have determined that frankincense smoke is a psychoactive drug that relieves depression and anxiety in mice. The researchers found that the chemical compound in censole acetate is responsible for the effects.

In a different study, an enriched extract of "Indian Frankincense" (usually Boswellia serrata) was used in a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study of patients with osteoarthritis. Patients receiving the extract showed significant improvement in their arthritis in as little as seven days. The compound caused no major adverse effects and, according to the study authors, is safe for human consumption and long-term use.

The study was funded by a company which produces frankincense extract, and that the results have not yet been duplicated by another study.

In a study published in March 2009 by the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center it was reported that"Frankincense oil appears to distinguish cancerous from normal bladder cells and suppress cancer cell viability


Study: Frankincense may fight some cancers
January 31, 2006
A Virginia Tech scientist says frankincense oil might be useful in treating malignant melanoma -- an aggressive cancer that attacks humans and equines.

Approximately 54,000 malignant melanoma cases are diagnosed annually, according to the American Cancer Society, and there are many similarities between malignant melanoma in horses and malignant melanoma in people.

Recognizing the opportunity for translational research, John Robertson, a professor in the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine at Virginia Tech, has been studying the disease and an experimental treatment involving frankincense oil.

Frankincense is a botanical oil distillate made from fermented plants that contains boswellic acid, a component known to have anti-neoplastic properties.

During a recent presentation before a regional meeting of the American Cancer Society in Roanoke, Va., Robertson -- director of the college's Center for Comparative Oncology -- said he's found the oil has fairly selective anti-tumor activity and doesn't appear to disrupt normal cells."I think this research on frankincense oil suggests that this ancient medicine may have significant modern uses for chemotherapy of non-resectable malignancies," said Robertson.

Empowerment Through Reiki





Empowerment Through Reiki 



The Reiki Usui System is easy to learn and can be learned by anyone regardless of their age or religious preference. Reiki is not affiliated with any religion; it is universal and available to everyone. The Reiki System of Natural Healing is taught through a Reiki Master Teacher who initiates the student into higher levels of the Universal Life Force Energy. Once a person is initiated into Reiki their energetic system is balanced and cleared, their vibration is raised and their channel is expanded to increase a more concentrated flow of Reiki energy that will flow through them for the rest of their life. The attunement process is a blissful, beautiful interaction between you and your God self. Divine grace opens your heart assisting you to connect to deeper levels of unconditional love, forgiveness, unity and compassion for yourself and the planet.

Each of us are natural born healers. We all have the Universal Life Force Energy running through our system. Without this energy we would not be alive. When someone is in pain, we instinctively connect with the person by giving them a hug, rubbing them on the back or placing our hands over the affected area. The ability to do healing work is inherent in all of us. It is a normal and natural procedure.

A Reiki class will not give you anything you do not already possess. However, a Reiki class will greatly enhance and strengthen your already innate ability to heal. A Reiki attunement clears and expands your central light column, clears energetic blocks and activates you to transmit higher levels of healing energy. The Reiki attunement opens and aligns what was already a part of you.

Think of your body as a house. The house comes equipped with electrical wiring. God gave each of us the freewill choice to live in a house with or without electricity. All we have to do is make the choice to turn the switch on for the electrical currents to be connected. The Reiki attunement is the light switch that turns your power on.


Reiki
Three Degrees


Reiki is transmitted to the student in three degrees. Each degree includes an attunement. An attunement is a sacred spiritual initiation that connects the student to higher levels of consciousness and to an unlimited source of healing energy. The attunement enhances the students connection with their higher self, clears karma and negative energy from the energy body and raises the students vibration opening them up to hold more light, Ki, or Universal Life Force energy.


A physical and emotional cleansing and reorganization of the student’s energy will occur. The attunement elicits a healing response on all levels of the students being: Physical, Mental, Emotional and Spiritual. It usually takes between 30-90 days for the student’s energetic and physical bodies to integrate these new higher vibrational energies. Daily self-healing for at least the first month is highly recommended.


Attunement=Initiation=Empowerment



FIRST DEGREE (“I Am in the Light”) is called Shoden. It is the basic course where the student learns self-treatment and how to treat others. This degree will help you learn how to be a clear channel, how to develop a clear mind and develop a compassionate detachment from outcome by releasing control and simply allowing Reiki to happen.


Once attuned, the student will go through a 3-4 week cleansing period where their body adjusts to higher levels of energy. During this period the chakras are cleared, balanced and enlarged. The hara line or central light column is cleared and expanded and the student is able to channel higher levels of  ki. The student goes from a 50-watt light bulb to a 100-watt light bulb.


Includes the history of Reiki, hand placements for self and others, Initiation with 4 attunements, first sacred Reiki symbol and practice time to integrate the energy and gain confidence.


$35 - Certificate included.

SECOND DEGREE (“The Light is in Me”) is called Okuden. The second level attunement opens the student up even further to channel higher levels of “Spiritually Guided Universal Life Force Energy”. The student is given two sacred symbols as tools to transmit Reiki long distance to a person not physically present and will learn the technique for mental emotional healing. Practice time to integrate the energy and gain confidence.


This attunement focuses on emotional, mental and karmic healing. Old emotions, unhealed former situations, past lives and negative mental patterns resurface to be healed and released. The student will go through a 3-4 week cleansing period.


$75.00 - Certificate included.



THIRD DEGREE  (“I Am the Light”) is called Shinpiden and is taught in two segments. The Reiki 3 attunement is a spiritual level healing. It strengthens your connection to source and oneness with all life.


Reiki Master broadens the students channel even further through another attunement and assists in self-mastery and spiritual growth. The Master symbol is given to the student and they are considered a Reiki Master Initiate Practitioner.


$150.00 - Certificate included.





Taught by Michele Nappi

Reiki Master Initiate Since 1997

Reiki is a Japanese word meaning universal life force energy. It is an ancient technology for fine tuning the physical and etheric bodies to a higher vibratory level. A Reiki Master Initiate offers attunements to those wishing to become a practitioner so that they then can offer this as a healing method to themselves and others. This process enables the person to channel higher frequency amounts of universal life force energy. You will receive a certificate of completion and the first Reiki symbol. We will practice after the attunement is given, learn Reiki history, principals and hand positions. Reiki can also be given in the aura; energy centers of the body. Reiki is a wonderful tool to help develop conscious awareness, the very key to enlightenment. 

This is a path to personal and global transformation. 


I was first attuned in June of 1997. I love the energy of Reiki. There hasn't been a day gone by that I haven't used Reiki for one reason or another. This practice assists in your expansion on a spiritual level.
