VIDEO: Watch amazing video on Killing Cancer<\/h3>\n I simply applied the Cymilium several times a day with my finger to my lesion with skin cancer symptoms, briefly working it into the skin until it disappeared. I then rinsed my finger because it became a little irritated over time if I did not rinse it. I usually reapplied it whenever I had to use the restroom. There was a bit of a sting and smell from the ammonia that went away within a minute. Otherwise the treatment was painless for me. For the first few days my lesion seemed to swell somewhat. After that, the lesion became well defined and then started to shrink in size. Significant healing progress of my probable skin cancer lesion was observed within a week. Cymilium is listed for purchase for about $10 US at www.cymilium.com in April 2004. I did not hyperlink this intentionally. I am not promoting, nor do I want to appear like I am promoting this product. This product is apparently not otherwise widely available.<\/p>\n
The good news regarding Cymilium is that the components of an effective topical treatment for skin cancer, at least in my experience, are known. The ingredients disclosed on the Cymilium box are the active ingredient ammonium hydroxide 3% in a base containing aloe vera, cetyl alcohol, diazolidinyl urea, emulsifying wax, methylparaben, mineral oil, pancreatin, petrolatum, polyethylene glycol distearate, propylene glycol, propylparaben, sodium laurel ether sulfate, stearic acid, urea, and water. Ammonium hydroxide is commonly known as ammonia. Petrolatum is commonly known as Vaseline or petroleum jelly. I think the most critical ingredients in the Cymilium product for topical skin cancer treatment are pancreatin, ammonia, aloe vera, urea, and possibly stearic acid. The other ingredients in the Cymilium preparation probably function as preservatives and topical carriers that disperse the active ingredients, maintain contact with the skin, and prevent rapid evaporation. The urea compounds in particular may also act as wetting agents and penetration enhancers. Urea works by breaking up the surface tension of the fluid that surrounds the cancer cells, allowing access of the other ingredients to the cancer cell membranes. Many of these ingredients, except for pancreatin and ammonia, can be found in common skin lotions.<\/p>\n
Here is some rationale for picking pancreatin, ammonia, aloe vera as the most important ingredients of Cymilium. I think the pancreatin enzymes kill the cancer cells by breaking up the proteins in the cell membranes, possibly allowing the cell to be recognized as defective or foreign by other body defenses. Aloe vera contains polysaccharides which stimulate immune defenses. Aloe vera also contains amylase enzymes that break up carbohydrate based strands that can block the access of the pancreatin enzymes to the membranes of the cancer cells. Aloe vera is easily absorbed into the skin and acts as a carrier for the pancreatin. Aloe vera gel may help with detoxification of the dead cancer cells. The ammonia makes the mixture alkaline to protect the pancreatin from acids that tend to destroy it. Ammonia probably has other functions as well.<\/p>\n
Making an experimental topical skin cancer preparation based on Cymilium’s ingredients<\/p>\n
It has become desirable to try to create a topical skin cancer home remedy preparation with commonly available ingredients that will duplicate the success of Cymilium. The major ingredients of Cymilium useful for skin cancer are believed to be ammonia, aloe vera gel, and pancreatin. Stearic acid and urea could also play important roles. I really do not know which of the ingredients of Cymilium are essential and which can be left out. Use this information at your own risk<\/p>\n
Stir it up with a Q-tip or a finger.<\/strong> \nSeal the cap tightly when not in use to prevent the ammonia from evaporating. Mix up new batches frequently. \nThe mixture was applied to the affected skin frequently, at least 3 times a day, with a Q-tip or a finger. If using a finger, rinse it after each application to avoid irritation over time. Treatments were continued for several weeks. Small batches were used because the mixture has an unknown shelf life.<\/p>\nSome people have applied the mixture to just the affected area, others to a much wider area. Applying to a wider area can be troubling if there is widespread skin cancer. Often, the extent of the skin cancer is underestimated, so it initially looks as if the topical treatment is making matters worse. Additionally, any side effects such as nausea will be worse if attempting to treat too much too soon. The pancreatin can react strongly with skin cancer after a single application, resulting in redness, swelling, and itching. Itching can be alleviated by applying a product called Aveeno Anti-Itch Concentrated Lotion. It generally takes about five days to become convinced that the treatment is working and things are getting better instead of worse.<\/p>\n
There are ways to make the mixture more potent but with the possibility of a stronger reaction. One of these is to add a skin lotion called Refresh sold at Trader Joes. Refresh contains orange oil that aids penetration and has cancer fighting properties by itself. Orange oil allows the topical remedy to reach deeper into the skin. Also consider including coconut oil and melatonin in the mixture. Coconut oil seems to make the mixture much more potent, possibly by causing cell membranes to swell. Chewing melatonin tablets into a paste and spitting it into to mixture also adds amylase enzymes from the saliva. Both amylase enzymes and lauric acid in coconut oil should allow the pancreatin enzymes better access to the defective protein structures of the cancer cell. Coconut and orange oils can be applied separately from the pancreatin mixture.<\/p>\n

Ingredients for the topical melatonin and coconut oil skin cancer home remedy<\/p>\n
This skin cancer home remedy is adapted from a topical breast cancer remedy described on the Grouppe Kurosawa website. They combined the principle ingredients coconut milk, an extract from green tea called EGCG, and melatonin, a hormone made by the pituitary gland. The ingredients were combined in an isopropyl alcohol base for topical cancer treatments. It may be unwise to meddle with success, but I am still leery of isopropyl alcohol based on the assertions of Hulda Clark that link it to cancer.<\/p>\n
The version of the skin cancer remedy described here has many good attributes. It is simple to use. Its ingredients are readily available and inexpensive. It can be spread on large areas without affecting normal skin, ensuring adequate coverage. It appears to work gently albeit slowly. It works in harmony with mechanisms already present in the body. It can easily be adapted and controlled by the user. Best of all, as far as I am aware, neither coconut oil nor melatonin have safety concerns regarding topical or oral use so it can be used indefinitely. Regardless, please realize this home remedy is very experimental, immature, and may have undesired results or side effects. Consider using this information at your own risk.<\/p>\n
Coconut oil is a terrific candidate for topical skin cancer treatments. Coconut oil has a variety of saturated fats, several of which have been determined to have anticancer benefits. Coconut oil is about 50% lauric acid (found abundantly in human milk) that enhances the performance of tumor necrosis (killing) factor present in the body by 60 times. When it gets taken up into the mitochondria, lauric acid causes the mitochondrial membranes to swell, thereby making them unstable. This further promotes programmed cell death or apoptosis. Approximately 6-7% of the fatty acids in coconut fat are capric acid, another medium chain fatty acid, which has a similar beneficial functions to lauric acid.<\/p>\n
About 9% of coconut oil is palmitic acid, a saturated fat that is very toxic to damaged tissues and promotes programmed cell death. Palmitic acid is also the direct precursor of ceramide, the so-called death lipid. Palmitic acid simply makes cancer cells unstable. Palmitic acid consumed orally is normally broken down by the digestive system before reaching a cancer cell target, but applied topically it can be all business. Coconut oil is often available in ethnic food sections of supermarkets for about $4 a bottle and at health food stores for a bit more.<\/p>\n
Melatonin is secreted from the brain at night during the dark and is a natural anti-cancer agent. As we age, levels of melatonin decrease as hydrocortisone levels increase. Melatonin is a natural anti-hydrocortisone agent, and this is very important in the treatment of any cancer. Although glucocorticoids like hydrocortisone are used to treat leukemias and lymphomas, they will promote the growth of other cancers. They accomplish this by activating a number of anti-death pathways that allows cancer cells to escape programmed cell death. Melatonin, by blocking hydrocortisone binding, promotes cancer cell death and healing through new normal tissue growth. Melatonin has high affinity for the receptors on the membranes and in the nucleus of all cells so it is acting as a true hormone when it targets a cell. Melatonin inhibits the activation of the 5-LOX gene. When highly metastatic human prostate cancer cells are treated with 5-LOX inhibitors, they die within 2 hours.<\/p>\n
The body makes about 0.3mg of melatonin on a good night’s sleep. Supplements often contain 3 to 10 times this amount with 3mg being typical. Expect to pay about $6 to $10 a bottle for melatonin. Applying melatonin topically can result in relatively huge dosages to the skin. This high dose is one reason it works so well in topical cancer treatments but is also a reason to be cautious.<\/p>\n
Applying coconut oil and melatonin: The simplest technique is to chew a tablet or two of melatonin but not swallow it. Instead, spit the ground residue into the palm of the hand. Next a tablespoon or so of coconut oil is added and mixed with the melatonin paste using a finger. The mixture is then applied just before sleeping by vigorously rubbing and spreading using both hands (to the entire face and scalp of the case I know). The mixture leaves the skin feeling oily but there is not much of a smell. Chewing a melatonin tablet is a convenient way to make a paste but also serves another purpose. Saliva contains amylase enzymes that can dissolve carbohydrate hairlike shafts on the surface of a cancer cell that can protect it from the body’s enzyme defenses.<\/p>\n
Citrus oil home remedy for skin cancer<\/p>\n
citrus oil home remedy<\/strong><\/p>\nThis product containing the citrus oil extract d-limonene was used as a topical skin cancer home remedy.<\/p>\n
This skin cancer home remedy is based on oils extracted from orange peels. D-limonene is a liquid with a citrus odor and taste that constitutes about 90% of orange peel oil. D-limonene and a closely related compound called perillyl alcohol have been the subject of many cancer and heart disease animal based studies over the past several decades. In one study using rats, limonene caused 87 percent of advanced mammary tumors to shrink. Animal studies also show activity of D-limonene against pancreatic, stomach, colon, skin, and liver cancers. It is said to work by inducing tumor cell apoptosis, activating carcinogen metabolizing enzymes, initiating tumor cell differentiation to a more benign type, and inhibiting cell growth regulating proteins. There are studies showing D-limonene accelerates, albeit weakly, cancer development in the presence of tumor promoting chemicals but this mechanism is believed to be unique to male rats and does not apply to humans.<\/p>\n
Applying d-limonene topically to human skin cancers has not been studied. Both long and short term effects on human skin cancers are not really known. This home remedy is certainly not without risks, some of which are mentioned here. D-limonene is considered a skin irritant probably because it removes skin oils. Organic orange oil is an available alternative to consider. People can develop allergic reactions to orange oil, although allergic reactions are less likely using the extract d-limonene. Topical exposure to orange oil makes skin photosensitive (easily sunburned) and can cause dermatitis (rash). D-limonene is also an eye irritant.<\/p>\n
The product used was Ecover Natural Citrus Cleaner and Degreaser. Ecover’s current web site (www.ecover.com) does not mention this product so it may have been discontinued, but it is still widely available for sale on the internet and grocery stores for about $7 US. Similar products from other companies are also available such as Citrisolve. For reference, the d-limonene content of the Ecover product was greater than 30%. Surfactants are added to make the product water soluble. The surfactants also probably help the d-limonene penetrate more deeply into the skin to make it more effective.<\/p>\n
Two food grade orange oil products that could be used in place of the Ecover citrus cleaner as a source of d-limonene. The natural essential oil product from NOW Foods is cold pressed from fresh oranges. The TKO product is made from organic oranges and is available in a spray bottle. Both products cost about $5 US. The NOW label cautions “Not for internal use if undiluted.” and “Reacts strongly to ultraviolet light.”<\/p>\n
While this version of the citrus oil skin cancer remedy described here has many good attributes including decisive action and low cost, it is a bit scary and painful to use. The product was applied to skin undiluted using a cotton ball as an applicator. Applying the product to normal skin resulted in no pain even if the area was not rinsed with water. This suggests that the citrus oil cleaner could possibly be used as a diagnosis tool.<\/p>\n
There was no immediate sensation after applying the Citrus Cleaner to a suspected skin cancer. After about a minute, a tingling was noted. This increased in intensity to full fledged pain (like hot wax) over the next five minutes. The pain began to diminish after about twenty minutes, and at thirty minutes was barely noticeable again. There was a strong but pleasant citrus smell that did not clear until the skin was rinsed. The suspected skin cancer formed a crust of dead skin on the second and subsequent days that readily flaked off leaving reddened skin underneath. After a couple of days, the pain associated with the applications was noticeably less. Eventually, the suspected skin cancer seemed to act and look as normal skin over a period of three weeks, and there was no pain associated with applying the Citrus Cleaner.<\/p>\n
<\/noscript><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
VIDEO: Watch amazing video on Killing Cancer<\/h3>\n To keep a good balance between killing cancer cells and healing, it probably makes sense to apply the citrus cleaner on a weekly schedule. An example weekly schedule is to apply daily for three consecutive days and then take four days off. It would probably make sense to be very conservative the first few times if considering this home remedy by diluting the product with water and applying to a very small area. Always have a source of water and a towel available to rinse skin and eyes if necessary.<\/p>\n
The pain may seem like a significant detriment to using this home remedy, but it possibly gives important feedback regarding diagnosis and healing progress. The pain can be temporarily intense following the first few applications. The affected skin can become very red, but presumably only if skin cancer is present. The redness can be managed by modifying the weekly schedule example.<\/p>\n
Although numerous subtle anticancer mechanisms are associated with d-limonene, the direct solvent action on destroying improperly formed cell membranes may be most important in topical treatments.<\/p>\n

The area was treated with one or twice daily applications of orange peel extract and less frequent applications of household ammonia. The first photo (upper left) was taken on the third day of treatment. (The resulting inflammation was more pronounced at that time than before treatment began.) The second picture (upper middle) was taken on the 6th day, the third picture (upper right) was taken on the 11th day, the fourth picture (lower left) was taken on the 18th day, the fifth picture (lower middle) was taken on the 23rd day. The last picture (lower right) shows the area became well healed on the 33rd day.<\/p>\n
There is a combination of a d-limonene cleaner and household ammonia that has been tried with an apparent very fast response to a suspected skin cancer. In this variation, the d-limonene cleaner was applied to the skin with a cotton ball and allowed to penetrate for about 30 minutes. Then, household ammonia was applied with a cotton ball to the same area, scrubbing the site somewhat. There was a brief stinging sensation associated with the application of ammonia. The skin was thoroughly rinsed with water after about a minute. The site immediately welted and actually hemorrhaged (bleed) slightly. To lessen this reaction, it would probably be better to use a more diluted ammonia and water mixture. The suspected skin cancer site was well defined and bright red for about two days before healing over a week. One observation was the area of subsequent redness was unexpectedly larger than the original suspected skin cancer site. Also, another reader reported using topical lemon ammonia to cure their skin cancer in about one month, although I do not know if that product contained d-limonene.<\/p>\n
The results of using citrus oil extracts are unknown and the risks are also unknown. Also, the results of using topical ammonia are unknown and the risks are also unknown. Do not get any ammonia into the eyes and have rinsing water and a towel nearby. Read all cautions on the products. See real experiences with orange oil in the Topicalinfo Skin Cancer Forums.<\/p>\n
