Frankincense Essential Oil

Does Frankincense "Kill"?

This is what we have been taught. However, sometimes because of new
information, we have to un-learn what we've been taught and learn something new.

Gary Young made the statement at the 2011 North American convention that
Frankincense does NOT kill abnormal cells. Instead it digests them. It may
seem like nitpicking but upon reflection, there IS a difference between
'killing a cell' and 'digesting' it.

Below in, "Frankincense and Enzyme Blueprints" Gary talks with Dr. Mahmoud Suhail,
Omani frankincense expert, and collaborator with Gary:


"The other day Dr. Suhail and I were talking about frankincense, and he
asked me if I knew something that I wasn’t telling him, and I said, 'Well, I’
ll tell you my feeling. Frankincense does not kill abnormal cells.'
"He replied, 'Well, Gary, I’m seeing the evidence of it every day.'
"I told him that what he is seeing is an illusion and that frankincense
does not kill anything, because God did not create it to kill. Instead,
frankincense digests abnormal cells (breaks them down).
"He came up out of his chair and exclaimed, 'I knew it; I knew it!
Frankincense digests abnormal cells!'

"Dr. Edward Close made a similar statement. He said, 'Thieves does not kill
fungus; Thieves digests fungus.' So, what does it take to digest?
Enzymes.
"Enzymatic 'blueprints' are in every essential oil, so some of the
components in an oil will cause the blueprints of the enzymes to direct the
traffic. We don’t know if it’s the smaller amounts of boswellic acid or incensole
or a combination of the pinenes and the sesquiterpenes that are directing
the enzymatic activity of frankincense in targeting abnormal cells. We don’t
have the answer yet, but one day we will know.
"And so again, are essential oils invaluable to human beings? Absolutely."
