has been shown to kill off bladder cancer cells, U.S. researchers said.
H.K. Lin and his team at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center
and Oklahoma City VA Medical Center evaluated frankincense oil for its anti-tumor activity in bladder cancer cells.
The study authors investigated the effects of the oil in two different types of
cells in culture: human bladder cancer cells and normal bladder cells.
The study, published in the BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine,
found that frankincense oil is able to discriminate between normal and cancerous
bladder cells in culture, and specifically kill cancer cells.
Gene analyses were performed to determine how frankincense oil affects
bladder cancer cell survival and the researchers found that the oil
suppresses cancer cell growth by arresting cell cycle progression and
induces bladder cancer cell death by activating multiple cell death pathways.
"Frankincense oil may represent an inexpensive alternative therapy for patients currently suffering from bladder cancer," Lin said in a statement.

Victor Marcial-Vega, M.D., a former radiation oncologist,
now employs a new approach.
He uses essential oils for bringing relief for a wide range of conditions
including urinary tract infections, high blood pressure, trauma, dental infections,
bleeding gums, hemorrhoids, and breast cancer. He says the quality of the oil
is an important consideration because the plant oils function as potent antioxidants.
Unfortunately, he cautions that many aromatherapy oils are not pure and carry
contaminants that act as mild poisons and some oils may be pure,
but they are not of high quality.

Boswellic acid acetate induces differentiation and apoptosis in
Union Medical College, No1 Xiannong Tan Street, Beijing 100050, China.
The aim of the study was to investigate the antitumor and/or preventive
effect of BC-4, an isomeric compound isolated from the plant
acetate in 1:1, MW 498.3. We used the MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)
2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) assay to study the growth inhibition activity
of BC-4. Tumor cells migration within a three-dimensional collagen matrix
was recorded by time-lapse videomicroscopy and computer-assisted cell tracking.
Topoisomerase II was isolated from mouse melanoma B16F10 cells and its
activity was determined by its ability to cut plasmid pBR322 DNA.
The secretion and activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) from
human fibrosarcoma HT-1080 cells were determined by gelatin zymography.
BC-4 was a cytostatic compound and could induce the differentiation of
B16F10 mouse melanoma cells, blocked the cell population in G1 phase
and inhibited topoisomerase II activity. The G1 phase population of B16F10 cells
was increased from 57.4 to 87.7%, while S phase population was reduced
from 33.3 to 5.9% after treatment with BC-4 at 25 microM concentration for
48 h. BC-4 also inhibited the migration activity of B16F10. BC-4 could induce
apoptosis of HT-1080 cells, as proved by acridine orange fluorescence staining,
Wright-Giemsa staining, electromicroscopy, DNA fragmentation and flow cytometry.
BC-4 inhibited the secretion of MMPs from HT-1080 cells, too. In conclusion, if it
turns out that BC-4 is a well tolerated substance, exhibiting no significant toxicity
or side effects, being evaluated currently in China, BC-4 is a good candidate for t
he prevention of primary tumor, invasion and metastasis. Copyright 2002

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon where
leukotrienes are suggested to play an important role for keeping
inflammation active. Boswellic acids, the biologically active ingredients

FRANKINCENSE….Convention 2010 Statements from Gary Young:
There are several varieties of Frankincense trees and therefore varieties of
Frankincense Resin, but Young Living uses only the purest resin and I “Gary” knows the differences between them all. We chose the very best resin that
has been harvested properly and then distilled properly.
There are many Frankincense resin’s, but most grades are only good enough
for perfumes, yet many companies use them as Essential Oils and claim they
are pure when indeed they are not. There is not a pure Frankincense that is
sold in the U.S.! EXCEPT FOR YOUNG LIVING DUE TO GARY YOUNG'S
QUEST FOR THE BEST….WE ARE THE ONLY COMPANY WITH THE BEST!
Quote: “Most companies “selling” Frankincense are just marketers.
They do not know the first thing about their products purity.
Yet they say they are pure and the best, all the while not knowing this for sure.
Basically, they are lying to you”.
Quote: “Only in Young Living do you have the best.
Only in Young Living do you now have 2 Frankincense’s.
sacra (For spirituality).”
We, Young Living, now have our own distiller in Oman….never before has Frankincense has been shipped from Oman and we are now doing it.
Young Living is the only company that has proven, tested, pure
Frankincense oil. We distill our Frankincense Boswellia carteri in Kenya and Spain.
Young Living members are the only people in the world that has
royalty had the ability to have this product. You Now Have It!
Burning the Frankincense sacra resin was a tradition of people for
10,000 years. Ancient people were closer to God and lived their religion 24/7.
And Frankincense was part of their everyday lives. The smoke coming from
the burning of the resin assesses the emotions working on depression and anxiety.
The people of old used it to purify their clothing and bedding getting rid of (killing)
sand fleas, lice, ticks, mold and bacteria.
Gary stated that what Young Living is doing in Oman is his “Dream”. To be able to:
1. Collect resin from location…knowing you are collecting the resin at
the right time and to get all components from the resin in the EO.
2. Distill resin on location
3. To know we have the purest quality of resin available.
4. Knowing then that we have the purest quality of oil possible.
The 3rd cut of resin from the Frankincense tree is the better resin.
Collection of the resin must be a sustainable process;
we don’t want the trees destroyed.
Frankincense is replacing steroids that are being use in our bodies. Steroids are caustic to life and the body itself, damaging the thyroid and
parathyroid, damaging to the immune system. Frankincense has no side effects.
Emotions play a part in the degeneration of our bodies, our emotions.
Emotions cause inflammation.
Frankincense plays an important part in repairing our bodies
and emotion state.
In 3 years, Frankincense could be used as chemotherapy….frankincense
oil as a whole (he thinks strongly) can be used for cancer therapy and
used for chemo prevention.
Chew Frankincense resin and make teeth strong.
Gary would like to formulate Frankincense toothpaste…..
maybe sometime in the next 2 or 3 years. Use Frankincense
oil for all kinds of arthritis, chest infection, crone’s disease, colitis, asthma.
In Yeman in hospitals, when we talked to them, they did not have cancer
wards because there were not enough people with cancer.
They use Frankincense!
Only 4 cases of cancer and those 4 were not from the area of Yeman or Oman,
but from outside of the area and just working in Oman…..so they don’t count.
Quote Gary: “Frankincense is too beautiful to leave in the
bushel basket any longer”.Richard writes: "Frankincense
was the first oil appointed by God himself'' D. Gary Young
Gary talked to us about a Legend on the first day of convention about
the old people in Oman and surrounding areas told him.
When God put Adam and Eve out of the Garden He gave them 3 things.
1. Frankincense
2. Myrrh
3. Balsam (also know as Gold)
God created different plants for different countries. Palo Santo is the Frankincense for the America's.
Frankincense is oil for the old country.
We now have partners that do the distillation of Frankincense.
One in Spain who has been with us for a long time and one in Kenya.
And now we are the first company to distill in Oman our
It is the rarest and most sought-after aromatic in existence.
A deeper spiritual connection.
Gary reviewed the grading of Frankincense and the different species
of Frankincense. To our competition he said "their oils are not even a good joke''.
D. Gary Young.
Gary has spent many years (15 plus), in his quest for knowledge and finding
the most perfect quality's of Frankincense.
Now Young Living has two Frankincense:
Boswellia carteri, the one we are used to and Boswellia sacra the new one.
Now we have both. Our labs in France, Utah and Ecuador are set up for testing and
share results. No company in the world has better testing than Young Living.
''We don't tell you it is a good oil, we prove it'' D. Gary Young.
(The Frankincense which many of our competition uses is of poor
quality and is more of a perfume grade and has no therapeutic value)
