Melanoma Serum

Blender’s Notes Melanoma Serum:

Steep Me Self-Help combinations are a fantastic way to get health benefits outside of the standard tea leaf. We have developed an oil tincture to naturally help with Skin Cancer ~ Melanoma. This Serum can be applied to any spot on the body you may be concerned about. It does well blended with our Endo~Skin Ointment (available by phone call) or if the protocol calls for Vaseline – it blends together well, allowing these two options to create a poultice to create a barrier of skin protection and healing over any suspicious spots or areas of skin removal.  Skin cancer is the common malignancy in humans [1] which arises due to UV-B radiation. The two types of skin cancer are cutaneous malignant melanoma (CMM) and nonmelanocytic skin cancer (NMSC). Basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) and squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are the two major types of NMSC 1, 2. Malignant melanoma is a treatment-refractory and metastasis-prone malignancy of the skin [3]. UV radiation causes specific mutations in keratinocytes leading to the development of NMSCs, which represent the most common type of skin cancer in humans [2]. Actinic keratosis (AK) (solar keratosis) is described as the earlier stage of SCC in situ [4]. BCC spreads locally with little or no metastasis and accounts for 80–85% of all NMSC 5, 6. SCC can progress to invasive SCC (showing a 2–6% risk of metastasis) 7, 8 and accounts for 15–20% of all NMSC 2, 5. Currently, surgical removal, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and/or cryosurgery are used for skin cancer treatment.

What is Melanoma? Melanoma, which means “black tumor,” is the most dangerous type of skin cancer. It grows quickly and can spread to any organ. Melanoma comes from skin cells called melanocytes. These cells produce melanin, the dark pigment that gives skin its color. Most melanomas are black or brown in color, but some are pink, red, purple, or skin-colored. About 30% of melanomas begin in existing moles, but the rest start in normal skin. This makes it especially important to pay attention to changes in your skin because many melanomas do not start as moles. However, how many moles you have may help predict your skin’s risk for developing melanoma. It is important to know if you are in a high-risk group for developing melanoma skin cancer. Because of the fast growth rate of melanomas, a treatment delay sometimes may mean the difference between life and death. Knowing your risk can help you be extra vigilant in watching changes in your skin and seeking skin examinations since melanomas have a 99% cure rate if caught in the earliest stages. Early detection is important because treatment success is related to the depth of the cancerous growth. Melanoma accounts for only about 1% of all skin cancers but causes many skin cancer-related deaths. It is one of the most common cancers in young people under 30, especially in young women. Melanoma incidence has dramatically increased over the past 30 years. It is widely accepted that increasing levels of ultraviolet (UV) exposure are one of the main reasons for this rapid rise in the number of melanoma cases.

Most experts agree that a major risk factor for melanoma is overexposure to sunlight, especially sunburn when you are young. Statistics tell us that 86% of melanomas are caused by solar ultraviolet (UV) rays. How does the sun cause skin cancer? UV exposure can cause damage to a cell’s DNA, making changes to genes that affect how cells grow and divide. The potential for problems comes when your skin’s DNA is damaged and those cells start reproducing. UV radiation from tanning beds also increases the risk of melanoma and has been designated as a carcinogen (cancer-causing) by the World Health Organization. Tanning bed use may be related to over 6,000 cases of melanoma per year in the United States. Although anyone can develop melanoma, an increased risk for developing the disease is seen in people with ~ A personal history of melanoma. ~ A family history of melanoma. ~ Fair skin, freckles, blond or red hair and blue eyes. ~ Excess sun exposure, including blistering sunburns. ~ An address near the equator or in high elevations — living in these locations may increase your UV exposure. ~ A history of tanning bed use. ~ Many moles, especially atypical moles. ~ A weakened immune system. Melanoma is more common in white people, but it can occur in people of all skin types. People with darker skin most often get melanoma on their palms, soles, and nails.
