Curaderm BEC5 when not to use

Curaderm BEC5 when not to use
One patient has experienced an adverse reaction when using Curaderm
BEC5. The patient experienced some scarring after using Curaderm BEC5
for several months.

On assessment it was established that:
1. The patient had applied Curaderm BEC5 on DRY SPOTS on the skin
even though a dermatologist confirmed that THE PATIENT HAD NO SKIN
CANCER
2. The patient was on corticosteroid therapy which consisted of
prednisone and cortisone.
Prednisone and cortisone therapy have many side effects, including
adverse effects on the skin. Some reported side effects of prednisone
and cortisone taken orally result in the following:
Thinning of the skin, a tendency to bruise easily and extensively with
slight trauma, development of large bruises, decreased muscle mass and
weakness, dry skin, unusual skin growths, immune and inflammatory
suppression, resulting in infections, and wounds take longer to heal.
These steroids break down protein and suppress inflammation, and
initial fibrous tissue is not laid down in the normal way.

Conclusions
* Curaderm BEC5 should be used to treat non melanoma skin cancers
such as: keratosis, keratoacanthoma, basal cell carcinoma and non
metastasised squamous cell carcinoma. Patients should seek medical
advice for their skin lesions before using Curaderm BEC5 and not apply
Curaderm BEC5 on dry spots on the skin.
* Patients on corticosteroid therapy such as prednisone and/or
cortisone should not use Curaderm BEC5.

The Mysteries Of Nature. Eggplant cures skin cancer; FACT or FALLACY?

Because a plant or its fruit contains anticancer substances, this does not mean that a crude and simple extract of that plant material will have anticancer effects.

An elegant example of this was shown to be the case with glycoalkaloids found in an every day eaten solanum plant, Solanum melongena (the eggplant or aubergine).

Over three decades of medical research, clinical studies and many scientific publications have now undoubtedly shown that glycoalkaloids found in the eggplant have anticancer properties (www.curadermbec5global.com). These glycoalkaloids when extracted and purified are now known as BEC.

Dr Bill Cham, a world renowned scientist, was first to describe BEC. BEC in a cream formulation, Curaderm BEC5, has undergone all the necessary studies to establish itself as an excellent treatment for non melanoma skin cancers.


Consequently, from a layperson point of view, it could possibly be assumed that a crude extract of the eggplant would also be effective for treating skin cancers. In the case of the glycoalkaloids in the eggplant this is not the case. Nature has many "secrets" and it took Dr Cham over a decade to unfold the mystery of glycoalkaloids in the eggplant. What Dr Cham discovered was that the eggplant did indeed contain glycoalkaloids and that these glycoalkaloids possessed very good anticancer properties.

However, the eggplant also contained substances that worked against the anticancer effects of glycoalkaloids. When Dr Cham tested the crude extract of the eggplant no anticancer effects were observed. However, when the glycoalkaloids were extracted in a pure form, now known as BEC, and tested against cancer, excellent results were obtained. The substances that worked against the anticancer properties (known as inhibitors) had to be removed from the plant extract before BEC glycoalkaloids could be used for treating skin cancers.

So, unless you experiment with pure BEC do not assume and expect that the eggplant is a treatment for cancer.

In closing, eggplant cures skin cancer is a Fallacy, but, BEC extracted and purified from the eggplant cures skin cancer is a definite Fact!
