		<description>Hi Ebony,

Thank you for sharing that information...

I did not indicate a percentage on the frankincense dilution because everyone is different; however, starting with a range from 3% and working your way up to 10% if you can handle the increase is probably best. It can sting if you use it in too high of a concentration.

I did reply to David, but it was at Christmas when we saw each other as we are good friends... so that is most likely why I forgot to answer him on here... but I should have because everyone else doesn&#039;t know that. :)

Have a great day!

		<description>Atlas cedarwood has the highest concentration of sesquiterpenes of all the essential (wood) oils (sandalwood, rosewood, frankincense, myrrh etc.) and is therefore thought to be more effective. In addition atlas cedar is great for not only for facial skin, wrinkle prevention but also for spot weight loss &amp; muscle building. It also helps the adrenals in the black spruce/4 oil combo (along with pine and peppermint) and I do believe is also great for scalp/hair  but would have to look that up. 

It would be nice as David requested if you would answer your readers (not just the rude ones) and indicate the concentration/dilution whether 10% or ??? to be effective.</description>

		<description>Dear M. Suhail,

Thanks for the update. I have very specific question since I would like to suggest this treatment for the patient with bladder cancer without metastasis. The patient has 66 Kgs of bodu weight. Obviously, according to your updated dosage, she should take 12 ml of this oil per day, but should she do it at once? By oral administration? Or divided in subdoses, e.g. 4+4+4? Or what is the best way? Thanks a lot!

		<title>Comment on Carrot Seed Oil and Its Benefits for Skin Care by Michael</title>

		<description>Hi Monica,

Carrot seed oil is FCC, so it can be ingested; however, as with any essential oil, it is very concentrated and when ingestion is concerned it is always wise to start with the least amount and then go from there. 

This oil is usually used more for topical applications in aromatherapy. When you get into ingestion you are waning into herbalism where there are traditional uses for the oil. As always, make sure you do thorough research before ingesting any concentrated therapeutic substance to check for contraindications and possible side effects.

Everyone&#039;s physiology is a bit different, so you have to find what works for you.</description>

		<description>Just an update regarding dose; 
 0.18 - 0.2 ml per kg body weight per day was tested to be well tolerated and matching maximum therapeutic effect. It was proved safe clinically and by biochemical analysis.

		<description>Hey Michael,
Finally got around to investigating your website. You&#039;ve done an amazing job!!
On this particular blog, are you suggesting using the oil topically on the face-- if so,
how much and how often. Love to hear from you!!

		<description>Hi Lola,

Actually, what you cropped out is not exactly what I said. I did say:

&quot;Compounds known as sesquiterpenes are found in frankincense oil, and they fortify the limbic system, so the key glands that secrete the hormones responsible for NOT ONLY the aging process, but for the health of the cells in all organs in the body are stimulated.&quot;

Furthermore, I quite clearly stated: 

&quot;New research is exploring the ability of frankincense oil to stimulate human growth hormone (HGH) production in the pituitary gland at the base of the brain. The pituitary gland slows down the production of HGH after the age of thirty, so the body begins to show signs of aging.&quot; 

It is the increase in the body&#039;s natural production of HGH (human growth hormone), a potent anti-aging hormone, that is responsible for it&#039;s regenerative effects. If frankincense oil increases the natural HGH output, the result is deceleration of aging. 

The context of &quot;aging process&quot; in these statements is related to the effects of the hormones in the entirety of the process, which has to do with biological age moreso than chronological age. Clearly, in linear time, we increase our years. But, biologically speaking, we don&#039;t have to &quot;age&quot; with the consensus reality of what others expect to happen just because we have been taught that as we get older we must age dramatically. Quantum mechanics makes it quite plain that it is simply a belief... a fairly persistent belief because of the impact of consensus reality, but yet still just a belief.

All in all I believe having a mindset of being youthful is the most efficacious strategy of health and anti-aging, and the frankincense is simply an analog that assists the subconscious level of the mind with that process. On a mental level it makes it more tangible. 

There are many people who are biologically older than their years because of poor diet, lack of exercise, and hereditary issues. 

And vice versa... there are many people who are considered biologically younger than their age due to better life choices, such as not smoking, moderate alcohol consumption, low sodium, reduced sugar intake, keeping the body alkaline, elimination of refined foods, trace mineral supplementation, organic meat consumption instead of hormone-packed meats, regular exercise, reducing unhealthy stress, and living in less polluted areas where fresh air is available. 

All of these things contribute to our cumulative experience of aging, or not, and I personally do not believe aging is as linear as we are expected to believe. I have friends that are mid 50s and have not one wrinkle, and unlike Cher, it&#039;s natural. :)

So, that may have been a bit tangential, but I hope it answers your question as to the clarity of my meaning.

		<description>Um...you basically wrote &quot;the key glands that secrete the hormones responsible for the aging process in the body are stimulated&quot;! (I cropped the part that might have gotten you confused, for that is basically what you are saying!) 

If that is correct then it follows that frankincense CONTRIBUTES TO AND ENCOURAGES AGEING! You might want to either alter that sentence or the whole title and topic to &quot;don&#039;t use frankincense unless you want to age fast!&quot;

Which is it? I&#039;m waiting!</description>

		<description>Giving that data build up is so fast and the spectrum of cancer lines frankincense essential oil is effective on keep widening, we cannot find the time to blot statistics.
 In fact we, the research group is planning to establish a website to publish all the details and progress (open source) in the near future.
 Results are extremely promising but a formal clinical trial is not yet established.
 Just imagine; the spectrum of the research start from the soil, the tree, climate effect, processing of resin, different methods of extraction by custom made equipments, chemical analysis, cell line cultures and testing, different molecular biology techniques, pathology, clinical interpretation,,,,etc. and we are only 4 researches thousands of miles away and working without any resources (so every one has its basic job to do!). i doubt that any one of the research group slept well for the last 2 years.
