Essential Oils and Cancer

Information taken from the Essential Oil Desk Reference, Scientific Studies, and Testimonials. Hyper-
thermia reference is “Too Hot for Cancer” by Harvy Kaltsa, DOM, A.P. This document is designed for educational
guidance when using natural practices or present day conditions as well as preventing degenerative
conditions.

Cancers:
It is important to note that many natural therapies--especially those using essential oils---work best in
the early stages of cancer. In fact, citrus oils, high in d-limonene, including orange, grapefruit, and tan-
gerine work better as cancer preventatives than cancer treatments, although they have been shown to
have powerful anti-cancer properties on all stages ofcancer.

A 1996 study at Charing Cross Hospital in London, UK, achieved close to a 15% remission rate in pa-
tients with advanced colon and breast cancer using doses from 1- to 15 grams of
d-limonene from orange oil as their only treatment. In patients with only weeks or months to live,
limonene treatment extended patients' lives by up to 18 months in some cases. (VigushinDM et al.,
Phase 1 and pharmacokinetic study of D-limonene in patients with advanced cancer. Cancer Research
Campaign Phase I/II Clinical Trials Committee Cancer Chemother Pharmacol. 1998; 42(2); 111-7).

Cleansing and Removing Toxins:

Industrial pollutants (i.e., benzene, lead) and lifestyle toxins (i.e., cigarette smoke chemicals,
heterocyclic amines from overcooked meat) contribute to a vast majority of cancers. To help
lower cancer risk, it is a matter of reducing exposure to these chemicals. In any cancer
treatment program, these chemicals should be avoided at all cost, as they can damage DNA,
decrease immunity, promote oncogenes, and accelerate cancer development.

Cleansing and Chelation:

The foundation of any cancer program should begin with a period of fasting, cleansing, and
chelation. Cleansing and chelation can help remove some of the toxin-and petrochemical-
buildup that may have triggered the cancer initially; fasting can be one of the single most
powerful anti-cancer tools available, particularly in the early stages. (It is NOT advised for cancer pa-
tients with advanced cancer or cachexia).

Essential oils that improve liver function and promote glutathione can form the core of any detoxification
program. Lemon and orange oils were shown in studies at Johns Hopkins to substantially increase glu-

 thathione levels in the liver and colon, which can have bene-
ficial effects on detoxification. Chelation can be particularly
important in removing carcinogenic transition metals from the
body. Studies in Germany have shown that transition metals
such as iron, mercury, lead, zinc, nickel and cadmium can
accumulate in high levels in tumors, particular in breast can-
cer tissue. Complexing and chelating to eliminate these met-
als can produce profound benefits in the earliest stages of
cancer. (Ionescu JG, et al., Increased levels of transition
metal in breast cancer tissue. Neuro Endocrinol Lett. 2006
Dec; 27 Suppl 1:36-9).

Rice bran is not only rich in metal-chelating Ip6, it also contains anti-cancer phytonutrients such as
gamma oryzanol, and other compounds. It also rich in immune stimulating arabinozylans that increase
cancer cell death. (Ghoneum M. Gollapudi S. Modified arabinozylan rice bran (MGN-3/Biobran) en-
hanced yeast-induced apoptosis in human breast cancer cells in vitro. Anti-cancer Res. 2005 MaR-
aPR; 25 (2a): 859-70).

The Ningxia wolfberry is rich in polysaccha-

rides that similarly amplify immunity; a number of clinical research tri-
als have shown that wolfberry compounds can dramatically improve
cancer remissions, particularly when combined with immune-
stimulating therapies. (Coa GW, Yang WG, Du P. Observation of the
effects of LAK/II-1 therapy combining with lycium barbarum polysac-
charides in the treatment of 75 cancer patients.
Zhonghua Zhong Liu Za Zhi. 1994 Nov; 16(6); 428-31).

Why Fasting Works:

New research has uncovered one of the properties that make cancer
cells different from normal cells; insulin receptors. Cancer cells have
over 10 times the number of receptors for insulin as a normal cell;
excess insulin can stimulate cancer cells disproportionately compared to well-differentiated cells. Simi-
larly, because cancer cells are fast-growing, they require far more glucose (blood sugar) than normal
cells do. The most effective way of lowering both insulin levels and blood glucose levels is with a fast.
Bernard Jensen ND, used a 180-day fast, composed initially of only barley grass juice, to metastatic
prostate cancer. Even partial fasts in which refined carbohydrates are eliminated and caloric intake re-
duced to 500 and 1000 calories can be potentially very therapeutic.

Essential Oil Cancer Research:

Here is what we learned at convention 2005 on research on the 74 essential oil in the studies of can-
cer. 69 single, and 5 mixtures on Cervical, breast, skin, and prostate cancer cell lines with a Non-
cancerous 3T3 (mouse) fibroblast cells. I would like to share part of this again especially for those who
are new and haven't heard about the research.

OBJECTIVE:
Oils showing 50% or more cancer cell inhibition and 25% or less inhibition of
non-cancer cell growth will be recommended for further study as potential
ti- cancer drugs.
RESULTS:

58% of the 74 oils showed general cancer inhibition of 50% or greater. 34% of the 74 oils showed can-
cer-specific inhibition. Seven of those were active against two or more cancer cell lines
Of particular interest: Oils showing synergistic effects, Oils with significant activity at the lowest concen-
tration tested and Oils with multiple anti-cancer activity.

CONCLUSION:
Essential oils have potential as anticancer drugs.

Screening processes (such as the one used in this study) that are fast, inexpensive and useful provided
good leads about which compounds should be further investigated. Further research should be done
on promising essential oils--this may lead to new cancer drugs. Many technologies available.

ALPHA-SANTALOL Vs SKIN CANCER:

1. Researchers at the South Dakota State University found that the main component
of Sandalwood oil, the alpha-santalol, protected skin from cancer.

2. Application of alpha-santalol to skin exposed to cancer-causing chemicals dramatically delayed the

onset of tumor growth in test subjects.

Protocol: By alternating the following on a tumor site, to keep Cancer in a state of confusion for it can
develop a propensity to ward off constant EO use from a steady application of the same oils with out
changing the kinds of oils used.

Frankincense,sandalwood & Tsuga treat for 3 days then switch to:

Frankincense,sandalwood & Ledum treat for 3 days then use
Frankincense, sandalwood & Lavender treat the tumor for 3 days then use
Frankincense,sandalwood & Clove for 3 days then use
Sandalwood and clove for three days then repeat the protocol

This must be done often daily and depending on the size of the tumor can
take up to 6 months to rid the body of it. Some take less time, some take
more. Be patient and keep the "Intent" clear on clearing the body from the
Cancer and it will work. Get the body in an alkaline condition and stay away
from foods that are acid forming. Because when the body is acidic that is
when disease likes to have fun. Keep the immune system up also and you
may live a long healthy life to 140 years or longer.

Dr. Terry Friedmann, M.D., conducted an experiment cancer program on ten patients. All those who
followed the program are not healthy. One little girl had a massive tumor on her forehead, spinal prob-
lems, and was on morphine. Three days into the program, she went off morphine, and 2 weeks later
went off Tylenol. One month later her tumor was gone, and she had gained 7 pounds with her spine 75
% regenerated.

Researchers have linked most degenerative diseases to lack of nutrients

in the body. Minerals and trace minerals play a large part in nutritional
deficiencies. Cancer requires a strong cleansing and nutritional building
program. Dr. Gary Young, from the Essential Oils Desk Reference
(p.234) suggests doing an intensive cleansing program with Cleansing
Trio and Juva Tone (colon and liver). He also suggests the Burrough's Cleanse using cayenne pepper,
lemon juice, and grade C maple syrup and The Essentialzyme program: Start with 3 tables, 3 times
a day. Increase the amount by 1 tablet every day until vomiting starts.

At this point , stop Essentialzyme for 24 to 36 hours. This is to break loose and
break down the tumor. Then start again with 4 tablets, 3 times a day and in-
crease the amount until vomiting starts again and then rest again 36 hours.
Start again with 5 tablets, 3 times a day. Increase until you vomit. Rest again
and go back to the amount taken before the vomiting occurred. Continue to
take the regular dosage for 6 weeks. Then buy every enzyme Young Living has
and use it when you eat. Avoid red meat and white sugar and breads. Eat eve-
rything fresh and as many greens as possible.

For further knowledge about cancer programs, check the Essential Oils Desk
Reference Book, by Dr. Gary Young. Anyone struggling with cancer needs to
have knowledge! You can stop cancer or slow it way down. Many factors are
involved and all need to be considered for the
desired outcome of wellness.

Use Raindrop Technique for emotional clearing as well as healing the physical body. Use all the oils
that are prescribed in the book. Do the cleansing program without fail.
EVERYTHING must be taken into account and done.

Protocol for Skin Cancer

Melanoma is the most lethal form of skin cancer. It tends to aggressively spread and metastasize,
quickly colonizing the lymph nodes and internal organs. It has a high rate of fatality.

A sudden change in the appearance of an old mole or the
appearance of red lesions, may indicate melanoma. If you
suspect that you have melanoma or any skin cancer, you
should immediately contact your physician.

Emotions and Cancer:
Cancer should always be treated first by dealing with the emotions that contributed to the onset of the
disease. In many cases, negative emotions and traumas not only triggered the cancer appearance, but
many enhance its metastasis. Any kind of negative emotion--anger, fear, rage, helplessness, aban-
donment--can worsen a cancer prognosis and hasten its spread.
Essential oils hen used as the core of and emotional treatment program can have powerfully positive
effects in improving emotions and potential disease outcomes. Essential oils blends such as White An-
gelica, Release, Grounding, Inner Child, Trauma Life, Peace and Calming and SARA can form the core
of any emotional treatment regimen.

Essential oils play an important role in assisting people to move beyond these emotional barriers. The
aldehydes and esters in certain essential oils are very calming and sedating to the central nervous sys-
tem (including both the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems). These substances allow us to re-
lax instead of letting anxiety build up in our body. Anxiety increases an acidic condition that activates
the transcript enzyme which then transcribes that anxiety on the RNA template and stores it in the
DNA. That emotion then becomes a predominant factor in our lives from that moment on. (Cancer
lives on the acidic condition in our body).

When we encounter an emotionally charged situation, instead of being overwhelmed by it, we can dif-
fuse essential oils, put them in our bath, or wear them as cologne. The aromatic molecules will absorb
into the bloodstream from the nasal cavity to the limbic system. They will activate the amygdala (the
memory center for fear and trauma) and sedate and relax the sympathetic/parasympathetic system.
The oils help support the body in minimizing the acid that is created so that it does not initiate a reaction
with the transcript enzyme.

Because essential oils affect the amygdala and the pineal gland in the brain, they can help the mind
and body by releasing emotional trauma and sharpening focus.

INFLAMMATION AND CANCER:

The link between cancer and inflammation ha been strengthened in recent years. It is well known that
the salicylates in aspirin which have highly anti-inflammatory effects reduce the risk of colon cancer
dramatically. The natural salicylates found in the essential oil of wintergreen are very close in structure
to the acetyl salicylic acid found in aspirin. According to Erica Leibert of Harvard University, winter-
green oil is 40% stronger than an aspirin equivalent with very similar anti-inflammatory properties.

Clove has been researched as a potential chemopreventive agent for lung cancer, because of its po-
werful anti-inflammatory effects. The biochemical alpha humulene, found in balsam fir essential oil and
copaiba essential oil, has also been shown to have significant cancer prevention properties through its
anti-inflammatory action.

Boswellic acids found in Frankincense gum resin also have powerful anti-inflammatory effects. Myrrh
gum has been studied for its ability to combat various cancers, included breast cancer.

Research and Testimonial for

Hyperthermia to treat cancer in Bavaria.
Janice told me her story three weeks after she started treat-
ment at theclinic. With a joyous smile on her beautiful face--
and a stomach now flat--she pronounced, "This is my favorite
place in the whole world. I just love it here!" She said she was
completely free of pain, and her energy had been restored. She
received treatment according to a standard Klinik St. Georg
cancer protocol: a week of detoxification and the strengthening
of the immune system with diet and nutritional supplements,
followed by two weeks of localized hyperthermia treatment
(see sidebar) and low-dose chemotherapy. Hyperthermia in-
volves raising the temperature of the body area surrounding a
malignant tumor, or in many cases, the whole body itself, to
t
levels of heat and for periods of time lethal to the cancerous
Friedrich Douwes, M.D.,of Klinik tissue but not injurious to other cells. In Janice's case, the ab-
St. Georg has great success us- dominal area was per fused with the chemotherapy agents cis-
ing a "synergyof treatments"-- platin and carboplatin during hyperthermia treatment. Be-
with special emphases is on the cause the treatment heated the abdominal cavity to 107 degrees

ation and direct electrical current
Fahrenheit (41.7 degrees Celsius) for one hour, the chemothe-
as mainstays of his cancer-killing rapy was able to penetrate the membranes of the cancer cells
strategy. much more easily. Thus Janice needed only half the normal
dose of chemotherapy and suffered none of the usual side ef-
fects. About two months after treatment began, Janice in-
formed me that she was continuing to improve and felt better
than she had in years. Shortly thereafter, she no longer showed
any sign of disease whatsoever. Her CA 125 cancer markers (a
blood test measurement of the level of antigens produced by
ovarian cancer cells) dropped from above 2,500 to the low 100s
and her health is now perfect.
Janice says that, from talking with long-term cancer survivors she
has met at KlinikSt. Georg, and from her own experiences, she is
convinced there is hope for permanent remission. Ideally, before
persons with cancer seek chemotherapy, radiation or surgery, they
Klinik St. George should consult an alternative or complementary physician such as
Prantseck Castle: the Interna- Professor Friedrich R. Douwes, M.D., Medical Director and
tional House of Klinik St. founder of Klinik St. Georg. As an oncologist who integrates holis-
Georg, nearthe Bavarian Alps tic with conventional approaches, Dr. Douwes is widely renowned
for
his successes. He has published numerous papers on alternative cancer treatments and is currently Vice
President of the German Society of Oncology.

Clinic patients have the opportunity to initiate detoxification, nutritional/herbal supplementation for im-
mune modulation, exercise, positive thinking practices and psychotherapy, as well as hyperthermia
and/or electrotherapy treatment (see sidebar). Dr. Douwes is bound by the canons of German medical
ethics to also advise his German patients as to standard conventional chemotherapies, and feels obli-
gated to inform his international patients of every option open to them. But if his patients decline chemo,
then he becomes their biological therapist. What a difference this approach is to that of many conven-
tional oncologists who scare their patients with treatment imperatives that include threatening prognos-
es: "If you don't do this surgery, chemotherapy and radiation, you're going to die in so many months.
"Hyperthermia and electrotherapy.

WHAT IS Hyperthermia?
Two forms of hyperthermia are practiced at Klinik St. Georg: whole body and local region. Both involve
heating the body to a temperature usually between 107 to 111 degrees Fahrenheit forone to three hours.
Both require patients be put on a detoxification protocol for a week prior to therapy, during which time
all vital sign sand organ functions are monitored and evaluated. Of special concern are heart, lung, kid-
ney and liver functions. Individualized hyperthermia treatments are then initiated. A patient is continual-
ly monitored while receiving hyperthermia in the whole-body chamber employing far infrared radiation.
There are several ways high temperatures kill cancer cells and potentiate the effects of herbal and nutri-
tional anti-cancer remedies as well as chemotherapy agents. One crucial way is that heat increases the
cellular metabolic rate, breaking down glucose to lactic acid and thus decreasing pH to very low levels.
This acidic body state, called acidosis, leads to hypoxemia, or low oxygen supply, which deprives the
cancer cells of oxygen and leads to their death. To enhance the cancer-cell-killing hypoxemia process,
Klinik St. Georg's Dr. Douwes often induces a temporary state of hyperglycemia during whole-body
hyperthermia, bringing blood sugar levels up to 300 milligrams per milliliter by adding glucose intrave-
nously. High acidity and hypoxemia also damage the vessels that nourish the cancer cells, thus choking
them off from fresh blood supply. This effect is en-
hanced because, compared to normal cells, cancer
cells have a primitive form of blood supply that is not
able to disperse heat as readily. Another way heat
works besides increasing cell permeability is to dam-
age the membranes, protein sand enzymes of cancer
cells, making them much more vulnerable to anti-
cancer agents--including herbal and nutritional
agents, chemotherapy and radiation. Both in laborato-
ry conditions and living humans (in vitro and in vivo),
studies have documented that, after exposure to high
levels of heat, cancer cells die faster at a fraction of
the usualdosages of chemotherapy and radiation. At
Klinik St. Georg, whole-body and local-region hyperthermia are applied in combination with comple-
mentary methods. Local region hyperthermia is used for cancer of the breast and uterus; pulmonary and
hepatic tumors and their metastases (spreading to other parts of the body); cancer of the pancreas; neuro-
endocrine tumors; cancer of the stomach, bowel and bladder; ear, nose and throat tumors; brain tumors;
lymph node metastases and local lymphomas; and skin cancers.

well to localized hyperthermia--85% benefit from this type of treatment. And as brain tumors shrink,

ery from the brain cancers. Using local-region hyperthermia, Dr. Douwes claims that 87% of pancreatic
cancers treated at the clinic have gone into at least partial remission. With conventional therapies, pan-
creatic cancers are almost always fatal within a year. In local-region hyperthermia, the heat is only di-
rected regionally and straight to the tissue or organ affected by the tumor. This is accomplished by pass-
ing computer-controlled electromagneticshort radio waves (not microwaves) from a transmitter through
the patient to a receiving plate. These are positioned around the body region affected by the tumor.
Temperatures ranging from 107 to 111 degrees Fahrenheit are maintained for 60 to 90 minutes. Temper-
ature is checked either directly from inside the tumor or from outside using a radiometer. The patient is
usually wide awake for the procedure, needing no anesthesia--except when treating prostate cancer,
which requires local anesthesia. In these cases, a radio transmitter is inserted through a ureter catheter
directly into the prostate, and temperatures of as high as 158 degrees Fahrenheit are applied for one
hour. Because cancerous tissue is denser than
normal and radio waves are more readily ab-
sorbed by denser tissue and converted into heat,
local hyperthermia is self-focusing onto areas of
malignancy. Again, because malignant tissue has
a relatively primitive blood supply system, blood
cannot circulate freely through and around a tu-
mor; thus it tends to hold the heat. After local-
region hyperthermia treatment, malignant tumors
(unlike healthy tissues) form peculiarly characte-
ristic protein structures on their cell surfaces.
They are called heat shock proteins (one example
is "HSP 72"), and they trigger Natural Killer cells
of the body's immune system to attack the tumor
cells. Doctors at Klinik St. Georg have treated
numerous cases of breast and colon cancer locally
and have observed the quite remarkable disappearance of distant metastases. This is evidence that loca-
lized hyperthermia induces a type of specific immunity to metastatic cancer cells that have been affected
by the process. Whole-body hyperthermia is especially appropriate for advanced cancers that have a
propensity to metastasize, such as breast, prostate and ovarian (which often spread to the lungs and liver)
and lymphomas. Dr. Douwes says hyperthermia allows lymphomas to "melt away like butter in the
sun." The treatment also has marked effect on pain: within two treatments pain is usually reduced so
dramatically that even patients on high doses of morphine no longer need their pain medications. For the
whole-body procedure, the anesthetized patient lies on a standard-sized hospital bed supporting shiny
reflective, insulated "tent" (sometimes called a whole-body cabin) with an array of infrared-A lamps.
Infrared light, if humans could see it, would appear just beyond the red side of the rainbow, the visible
part of the electromagnetic spectrum. While we cannot see infrared light, we do experience it as heat.
During treatment, monitors are hooked up to measure the patient's heart rate, respiration, temperature,
oxygen, carbon dioxide, blood sugar levels, blood pressure and EKG activity. Intravenous tubes are also
attached to provide water, nutrients, anesthesia and in some cases chemotherapy. Hyperthermia for pros-
tate cancer. After a local anesthetic is administered, a probe containing a tiny radio transmitter is intro-
duced through a transient into the prostate. Short-wave radio transmissions heat the prostate area to be-
tween 113 and 158 degrees Fahrenheit and adversely affect only malignant cells. Typically, it takes one
to one-and-a-half hours under the lamps to raise the body temperature from its normal 98.6 degrees Fa-
hrenheit (37 degrees Celsius) to almost 107.6 degrees Fahrenheit or a bit above. Infrared-A light pene-

is kept at these elevated temperatures for two to two-and-a-half hours, after which there is a cool-down

WHAT IS Electrotherapy?
Klinik St. Georg has successfully used electrotherapy, also known as electrochemical tumor therapy,
Galvanotherapie and electrocancer treatment (ECT), as a stand alone treatment in hundreds of cases,
with some truly spectacular results. ECT was developed in Europe by a Swedish professor and the Aus-
trian doctor Rudolf Pekar. The therapy employs galvanic electrical stimulation to treat tumors and skin
cancers. Marian Reichl, M.D., who heads this department at the clinic, says that ECT is used most often
as an adjunct with whole-body or local-region hyperthermia. Using both treatments, millions or even
billions of cancer cells can be killed--and when killing cancer cells, more is obviously better. This calls
for a note of caution, however. The dead cancer cells are highly toxic, which is why a healthy lymphatic
system is crucial to transport their detritus for efficient elimination from the body. An ECT session re-
sembles anelectro-acupuncture treatment, but with some major differences. Using local anesthesia, the
physician inserts a positively-charged platinum, gold or silver needle into the center of the tumor and
places negatively-charged, platinum, gold or silver needles around the tumor, no farther than 1.5 centi-
meters apart. Alternatively, superficial patch electrodes are placed on the skin, or a combination of su-
perficial skin patches and needles are used. Voltages of 6 to 15 volts are used, dependent upon tumor
size. The most common size of tumor treated is about 3 to 5 centimeters in diameter. Tumors as large as
the 5 to 10 cubic centimeter range have been killed with ECT. To enhance the cancer-cell-killing power
of ECT, sometimes small amounts of chemotherapy agents are applied to the skin and driven into the
tumor by a kind of sweating effect of the electric current ("iontophoresis"). For skin cancers, current is
passed between positively-charged needles placed underneath the base of the tumor and a negatively-
charged skin patch commonly applied to the surface. ECT works by influencing the acid/alkaline (pH)
levels within the tumor and causing electrolysis of its tissue, which is more susceptible to direct current
than normal tissue. The pH change depolarizes cancer cell membranes and causes tumors to be gently
destroyed. After treatment, for a couple of days the treated area will be inflamed as the body breaks
down the waste of dead cancer cells. Then scar tissue forms where once there was tumor. The ECT
process also appears to generate heat shock proteins around the cancer cells, inducing cell-specific im-
munity. This process triggers Natural Killer cells. In some cases, this has also provoked tumor death in
distant metastases. ECT is used for small breast tumors, isolated nodes of the axillary (armpit), supra
clavicular (above the collarbone) and thorax (chest) areas; tumors of the ear, nose and throat area, espe-
cially after radiation and chemotherapy; skin cancers; gynecological tumors; and soft-tissue tumors.
