Skin Cancer and Pre-Cancers
Oral and Topical Curcumin
There is ample scientific evidence that regular use of curcumin can lower your risk of cancer, and skin cancer is no exception. Luminnova Health offers Curcumin Ultra, a highly bioavailable form of oral curcumin, as a strategy for lowering your risk of skin and other types of cancer. We also offer an ultra-high penetration topical curcumin formulation based on the findings of animal studies which showed that topical and oral curcumin can arrest the growth of squamous cell carcinoma. We currently recommend curcumin as a treatment for pre-cancers and as a pre-treatment to boost the effectiveness of standard skin cancer treatments. In exceptional circumstances, we have used topical curcumin to treat established skin cancers with impressive results to date. In fact the response that we have observed is a clear example of the multi-targeted effects of curcumin on cancer cells.
Vitamin D
While we encourage adequate sun protection, we are also cognizant of the dangers of vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency can have very serious health consequences including increased cancer risk. It is important to have your vitamin D levels checked, and if low, this should be addressed as a high priority with a quality supplement.
