Hi BioBased,
Thank you for posting this information about the usage of Frankincense. I am a huge advocate and personally use quality essential oils as I feel they have tremendous therapeutic benefits for so many health conditions.
Unfortunately, those that are unfamiliar with essential oils tend to be leery of using them as their doctor is most likely not educated in their usage. The high quality oils are also quite expensive but it's important to note that there is no comparison in purity between true essential oils and fragrance oils which are derived from smelly chemicals.
Also very glad to hear that the Frankincense is helping you and your sister! Please continue to update us with your progress ... and hers!
Here is a really informative link from Dr Mercola about essential oils. I hope it interests you and others reading this post.

Months ago I told my sister about an article I read that discussed the use of Frankincense for non-Hodgkins lymphoma which she has. Since she has used the oil topically the very large tumors on her neck have shrunk considerably. Due to this success she researched further and decided to take Frankincense internally. She has a medical background-2 degrees and discusses holistic/alternative medicine with a former colleague who is reknown for a medical breakthrough. He did not admonish her for using the Frankincense, but suggested she add pancreatic enzymes to her daily regimen.
Slightly off topic: During my physical yesterday my PCP asked me if I examined my breasts, which I found embarrassing since I do not and never have. He told me that the medical community has done a 180 on breast self-examination, "you are ahead of the curve."
