Budwig Protocol benefits with essential oils, aromatherapy
The Budwig Protocol includes pure essential oils because numerous clinical studies have shown these to be extremely beneficial in your cancer healing journey.
Several studies have shown that essential oils such as frankincense (Boswellia Serrata) have the potential to treat brain, breast, colon, pancreatic, prostate, and stomach cancers.
Myrrh essential oil was able to reduce the replication of human cancer cells. A lab-based study showed that myrrh actually inhibited the growth in eight different types of cancer cells.
Combining frankincense and myrrh provides an even a greater anti-cancer remedy.
Magnolia (honokiol) reduced tumors in several types of cancers. In lung cancer, tumors were reduced by up to 41 percent and liver cancer by up to 80 percent in a study published in the medical journal Cancer in 2012. Scientists at the West China Medical School found that Magnolia (Michelia alba) essential oil could cross the blood-brain barrier and inhibit the growth of brain tumors. This is especially good news for people with brain cancer.
Artemisia essential oil has displayed strong anti-cancer abilities. A patient with prostate carcinoma Gleason score 8 (4+4)) and (PSA) level >800 µg/l. After 14 days on artemisia, the PSA level dropped down to 0, 98 µg/l. Artemisia was also effective in several types of cancer such as:
