I saw an article today that made my hair stand on end. Researchers have come out and claimed that cancer drug Efudix has anti-aging properties and can erase wrinkles. It is a cream that is placed over the site of a skin cancer and it contains chemotherapy drugs. The skin peels away over time revealing new skin underneath.

A very simple and clinical way to describe a very drastic treatment that has dreadful side effects and makes one incredibly ill at the same time. My mother had to use this for a BCC on her nose a few years back and she suffered terribly for the month she used it

It gives you raw, weeping hamburger flesh on your face that sloughs away – as well as flu-like symptoms and extreme nausea – the drug works to stimulate the immune system into healing the lesion, the cream itself does not do the healing. It was originally used to treat the herpes virus…still think it’s a good idea?

One lady found that it can even be lethal; she left a tube of it on a table among the bathroom safety products in her house and the dog decided to have a go at it. Next morning the dog was dead having ingested the cream.

Still like to try it…?

Give it a wide berth – even Australian doctors are hesitant to prescribe it nowadays. Better still, stay out of the sun – you’ll save the wrinkles and prevent skin cancer all at once. The ‘researchers’ must be out of their minds!
