			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In recent years, many medical journals have published articles which advocate prostate massage as a treatment for chronic prostatitis, prostate disorders, infertility, benign prostatic hypertrophy (BPH) and sexual problems.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In the Bible, there are over 188 references to precious oils (essential oils as we call them today). Some of the most well-known essential oils: frankincense, myrrh, cassia, cinnamon and rosemary. These were used not only for the anointing, but also to heal the sick. Essential oils are widely regarded as the first drug mankinds. For centuries, these natural healing oils have been used to treat various diseases and physical needs. ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics and Chinese manuscripts can track the use of healing oils from 4500 BC. Three common essential oils today (incense cedar and myrrh) were not only used in the pyramid temple and religious ceremonies and rituals, but also in the process of embalming. Take for example the incense. This essential oil has been widely used in religious rites. Member Wikipedia &#8211; In the book of Exodus in the Old Testament, was an ingredient for incense (Exodus 30:34), according to the book of Matthew 2:11, gold, frankincense and myrrh were the gifts to Jesus through biblical Magi &#8221; outside the East. &#8221; Essential oils and the traditional use of incense as MedicineMany Science Ayurveda (a traditional Indian system of medicine to the Indian subcontinent and practiced in other parts of the world) and alternative medicine are being investigated. Some of the studies as a treatment for chronic inflammatory diseases like Crohn&#8217;s disease, ulcerative colitis, and osteoarthritis. An aroma therapeutic study (reported in May 2008 FASEB Journal) determines the incense smoke is a psychoactive drug that relieves depression and anxiety in mice. Another study published in March 2009 from the University of Oklahoma Center for Health Sciences reported &#8220;incense oil seems to distinguish from normal cells of bladder cancer and suppress the viability of cancer cells.&#8221; Incense oil derived from Boswellia carteri induces specific cytotoxicity of tumor cells. . Www. NCBI. NLM. NIH. Www governor. NCBI. NLM. NIH. Gov/pubmed/19296830? Dopt = Citation. Research has also shown that the essential oil of incense may be able to bring relief to people suffering from osteoarthritis. A study using an enriched extract of frankincense essential oil, has helped patients in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study demonstrated a marked improvement in your arthritis in just seven days. Pure incense is edible. Chewy in its purest resin ee I would say, as an essential oil, often used for digestion and healthy skin in various traditional Asian medicines. Ayurvedic medicine and Indian incense used for centuries to treat arthritis. Another use for the essential oil of frankincense, is an aromatherapy oil. It has a pleasant scent of balsam and sweet, and very fresh smell. frankincense essential oil is found in many perfumes. Although, perfumed with people burning incense acts as a mosquito repellent. In fact, many of the essential oils and aromatherapy blends of mosquito repellents on the market today (it&#8217;s easy to make your own way) have incense ingredient. As you can see, we have been blessed with a world of wonderful healing oils and natural use for all types of applications. And my favorite way to exploit the power of essential oils is to let the aroma therapeutic scents is to withdraw spirits, moods balance and dispelling negative emotions. Many blessings to you, Deborah Hardman <br/><br/></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Cancer is the name given to any illness resulting from one of our body&#8217;s own cells growing out of control.  There are many processes that control a cell&#8217;s growth and division, each of which can go wrong.  Several of these control mechanisms need to be damaged before a cell becomes cancerous.  There are more than 200 different types of cancers, which are categorized in to carcinoma, sarcoma, lymphoma and leukemia based on the cells from which they arise.<br />
The principles involved in treating cancer are  either directly destroying the cancer tissues or indirectly destroying them by depriving them of blood supply and/or their nutrition.  But the irony is that whatever conventional treatment is used to destroy cancer cells do affect to some extent the normal cells also.  They may damage the skin, liver, intestine the bone marrow and other rapidly multiplying cells.  Sometimes the effect of the treatment is more devastating than the disease itself.<br />
Role of Alternative Medicine in treating cancer<br />
A larger study of Alternative medicine use in patients with different types of cancer was published in the July 2000 issue of the Journal of Clinical Oncology.  It was found that nearly 70% of the patients used at least one form alternative medicine along with the conventional treatment.  The National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM) are sponsoring a number of clinical trials at medical centers to evaluate alternative medical therapies for cancer.<br />
Alternative medicine includes therapies like herbal remedies, vitamins, special diets, and acupuncture among others.<br />
Acupuncture: effective in the management of chemotherapy associated nausea and vomiting and in controlling pain associated with surgery.  Now used in a trial to reduce the symptoms of colorectal cancer<br />
-Homeopathy<br />
-Ayurveda<br />
-Shark cartilage: Being tried in non-small cell lung cancer.  it prevents new blood vessels growth<br />
-Hyperbaric oxygen: In patients who had larynx removed for larynx cancer<br />
-Massage therapy: for cancer related fatigue<br />
-Pancreatic enzyme therapy along with specialized diet for the treatment of pancreatic cancer<br />
