Cancer is a term for diseases in which abnormal cells divide without control and can invade nearby tissues. Cancer cells can also spread to other parts of the body through the blood and lymph systems. There are several main types of cancer. Carcinoma is a cancer that begins in the skin or in tissues that line or cover internal organs. Sarcoma is a cancer that begins in bone, cartilage, fat, muscle, blood vessels, or other connective or supportive tissue. Leukemia is a cancer that starts in blood-forming tissue such as the bone marrow, and causes large numbers of abnormal blood cells to be produced and enter the blood. Lymphoma and multiple myeloma are cancers that begin in the cells of the immune system. Central nervous system cancers are cancers that begin in the tissues of the brain and spinal cord. Also called malignancy. Eucalyptus is a type of evergreen tree that is a member of the myrtle family. Oil from the leaves is used in very small amounts in mouthwash and in medicines and candy used to treat and soothe sore throats and coughs. It has also been used in some cultures to treat many other medical problems. The scientific name is Eucalyptus globulus.
Preview- It`s possible to presume that, eucalyptus oil is far better known for its antibacterial and antifungal actions. In fact, Doctor Lamson explained to me that one of the grad students working for him stumbled upon these cancer related studies while preparing a presentation on some research they had done on using eucalyptus oil to treat respiratory infections. Antibacterial is a substance that kills bacteria or stops them from growing and causing disease. Antifungal is a drug that treats infections caused by fungi.
