These skin creams were designed initially to benefit from the use of immune supporting proteins which could remove dead, dying and damaged cells, leading to a healthier and more beautiful skin. However, customer feedback soon began to show a different story, that the immune support was helping in many ways that could never have been foreseen. Bear in mind that this is a skin cream and is only ever sold as a skin cream. We make no claims of any healing benefits as the creams have not undergone any clinical trials. All the information contained in this website is anecdotal evidence, and information that we have gathered with the help of our amazing customers. Thank you - this website exists only because of your feedback, advise and help.
It is important to know how to get the best from the cream to encourage a healthy immune response and avoid some of the healing crisis that can be encountered as the immune system begins to interact with previously unresolved pathogens. This is known as the herx, short for Jarisch-herxheimer effect and is a reaction to endotoxin-like products released by the death of harmful micro-organisms within the body. This normally happens during antibiotic treatment, but is also seen when the immune system causes the death of the micoorganisms.
Overview
The immune system proteins within the creams are both an immune stimulant and an immune regulator. Thus the cream can be used to increase an immune response, but it can also be used in autoimmune ailments due to its ability to turn off macrophages (apoptosis) when no longer needed at the site of any infection.
The cream is a very potent product and for those with chronic, long standing ailments such as Lyme disease, CFS, autism etc, it will take a while for tolerance to be built up to enable this to be used as a skin cream as most people would use it. It is very important to start at a low dose and the rose scented cream can be used in very small amounts, in order to build the tolerance. It contains proteins that are specific to macrophages, and when they are 'activated' they will search and destroy pathogens in no particular order.
Lyme disease and some other pathogens release toxins during die-off, these toxins can manifest as headaches, migraines, joint pain etc. Lyme disease in particular, has very toxic outer surface proteins (ospA) which can cause severe migraines. A detox protocol should be in place prior to commencing with any immune therapy, including antibiotics - this can include but is not restricted to epsom salt baths (with added Himalayan salts and bicarbonate of soda to prevent the toxins being reabsorbed), ionised footbaths, addition of PeaPure, LDN etc. A slow die off of the pathogens helps to manage the toxins that will be released and this is why high dose is inappropriate for these conditions.
In autism, early pathogen reduction by an increased immune system can give early gains in communication and sociability, but also an increase in OCD like behaviours. These are associated with yeast flare (Candida), which happens if the ph of the body alters slightly during die off. Support a yeast reduction protocol with products such as Syntol AMD. Yeast seems to be more of an issue with PANDAs. Yeast does even out after a while, but as it is always present in the body, yeast is not seen to be much of a threat by the immune system. In the early days, the immune system seems to concentrate initially on previously unresolved pathogens, enabling yeast to thrive.
The type and amount to use will depend on the reasons for using it.
For general immune support, as we are all living in an environment that saps the immune system, the rose scented cream can be used as a daily skincare. Use as any other anti-wrinkle cream, it works well as an anti-ageing cream. At the same time it offers a daily application of the specialised immune supporting protein
For Lyme disease, CFS, Autism and others that can entail multiple coinfections, the rose scented cream. Use in very small amounts initially, the size of a lentil, on the lower leg at acupressure point ST36, every two or three days. If there is no herx, then increase the frequency and then the amount, until using it twice daily.
For immune deficiencies that do not involve multiple coinfections (ie, where the likelihood of a herx is minimal), the frankincense cream can be used daily. If battling tumors, science studies on similar immune proteins show that 300ng is needed to make a reduction in tumor size. Some clinics go up to 800ng. This would be between 3 and 8 applications of the frankincense cream.
Which cream to use?
For most people the rose scented cream offers the immune support necessary and is suitable for most conditions as a daily immune support. It can be used by anyone who wishes to maintain active immunity.
Because it is simply a protein, the use of which may correct a deficiency, if too much protein is used, the body will simply break it down into its constituent amino acids and reuse these elsewhere. There have never been any reports of any overuse of the skincream - the only issues are around healing crisis which occur when a depressed immunity starts to interact with previously unresolved issues. So even people who are healthy can use it, to ensure the immune system stays in top shape
For general immune support for those with a general compromised immunity, the stronger Frankincense cream may be more appropriate. Offering 4x the protein as the original formulation, this can be used to massage the lymph junctions on the throat, armpits or groin to encourage a healthy immune response to pathogens, or directly onto troubled areas.
Lymphatic massage points for strong immune support
The cream can be massaged into the lymphatic junction points in the throat, armpit, breast or groin areas. Lymph flows from the small capillaries to larger ones and onto the lymph nodes. One of the functions of lymphatic vessels is to move proteins into the bloodstream. A lymphatic massage at a lymph node junction with the cream can give a strong immune response. It is best to vary the site of application to encourage immunity throughout the body.
Other massage points for a more gentle immune support
An application to the back of the hand or lower leg may be more suited when a more gentle immune response is needed (Lyme disease, autism etc). Acupressure point ST36 (google this for more images) is at the top of the lower leg and away from lymph junctions. This may give a gentle immune support. The soles of the feet may also be a good place to apply at bedtime, but not initially as the feet are very connected to the rest of the body (think grounding, Ionic footbaths, reflexology). Ensure the area of application is clean and free of personal care chemicals before applying.
How much to use
Just a dab on the end of the finger is sufficient on a daily basis to help support the immune system. For new users who may have depressed immunity and coinfections, such as Lyme disease and CFS, a tiny amount should be tried initially, a smudge similar to the size of a lentil or a grain of rice. Using a cocktail stick or paperclip will help get a small amount out. Leave 72 hours to assess whether the immune reaction will be a strong one, or not. When it becomes apparent that there will not be a healing crisis, increase the amount and vary the places where it is applied, to include lymphatic points.
Topical skin cream
The cream can be used topically on many skin conditions to encourage the macrophages and other immune cells within the dermis and epidermis to become active. This can then give a cascade effect as the antigen presenting by the macrophages brings other other immune cells to the response. So even applying topically to the back of the hand can encourage an immune response.
It has proved effective in a wide range of skin conditions, from insect bites to burns, eczema to psoriasis, see the feedback for further details
Rose Scented Cream - daily skincare meets daily immune support
This was developed as a nut free / allergen free / vegan anti-wrinkle luxury skin cream. It has the widest range of fatty acids (these are building blocks for cellular regeneration) of any skin care product on the market.
Used daily, just like any other skin cream, this may help to keep the immune system in an active and responsive state, as well as moisturising and improving the appearance of your skin.
OTHER THINGS TO CONSIDER OUTSIDE OF THE CREAM, FOR A MORE EHEALTHY IMMUNE SYSTEM
Diets and Supplements
The immune support proteins will work regardless of whether you eat fast food or a raw vegan diet. However, if you are trying to recover, it is best to avoid introducing foods that contain toxins, as this gives the immune cells something else to do other than dealing with pathogens. Organic whole foods make a lot of sense. There are specific diets for specific ailments - ketogenic, Gerson and Budwig for cancer for example, and GAPS, gluten free, casein free (GFCF) for autism and your choice of diet is your own to research and to make.
To improve the immune response
Levels of vitamin D must be in the 'normal' range, and if supplementing in order to use a high dose protocol, a combined D3/K2 would be better as these two work symbiotically. The best form of vitamin D3 is via sensible sunshine exposure, K2 is from green leafy vegetables.
A wide range of good quality, organic fatty acids are also important. Vitamin D is a fat based molecule, and the immune system proteins are a carrier for fatty acids. Ketogenic is a low carb, high fat, high protein diet with no added sugars. For vegetarians, the Eco Atkins diet gives some pointers, flax seed oil is considered to be highly beneficial for cancer, possibly due to the concentration of B17 in this oil. The cream contains a wide range of fatty acids, the rose scented cream in particular has the widest range of any skin cream on the market. These are immediately available to the immune system as it is absorbed through the skin to the underlying lymph and blood vessels.
Vitamin C has been indicated to be very helpful to improve the immune system overall due to its anti-oxidant properties. Using a liposomal vitamin C may help prevent any of the gastric issues that may be associated with 'normal' vitamin C in high doses. Vitamin C may also be used intravenously, if administered by a professional.
Selenium, preferably from organic Brazil nuts as they contain a balance of iodine and these two work symbiotically together. This can help to feed and increase white blood cell counts.
Zinc and magnesium are again symbiotic, and associated with cell repair and regeneration. Magnesium and K2 are abundant in green leafy vegetables. Supplements should be magnesium l-threonate (used successfully in autism) or magnesium glycinate, which is readily absorbed and bioavailable.
If vitamin D levels are deficient, this may be due to magnesium deficiencies.
Garlic helps to support the immune system and circulatory health.
All these elements are available in whole, unprocessed foods, but if supplementing look for the best quality supplements online (for example www.mercola.com). Those available in the supermarket are unlikely to be of sufficient quality for addressing health issues.
Ideally, you should be working with a nutritionalist who can advise you based upon your individual health challenges, genetic profile and body / blood types.
