Amazing for pain??
By Keith
I have ordered this product more than 5 times, and I can tell you that it is in fact 100% pure Frankincense oil. I first started using a product that cost literally ten times per ounce more than the now food brand oil, and when I first found this product I was skeptical that it was the same.. I did a side by side comparison, texture, taste, smell, thickness... in every way it appears to be identical to the other brand but way less expensive.

The reason why I started buying so much of this stuff is because my Dad is battling cancer and a health food store clerk mentioned that Frankincense oil is a good cancer fighter. I started giving my Dad 30 drops daily(not all at once, spread out through the day) of pure Frankincense oil along with 1000mg of Laetrile, and although I don't know if these substances actually destroy cancer, there is no question that within two weeks he was feeling far better because his pain had nearly vanished! At one point he was loaded on morphine and oxycodone to the point of being in a "zombie" state, and now he has been completely off of all pain meds for over 3 months! His type of cancer(tongue/throat) is extremely painful and he has gone many months now with no pain at all! Almost every Doctor he has seen(which has been many), expresses amazement that he has no pain considering the advanced stage of cancer that he had(which may not be so advanced at this point.. :)

I felt compelled to write this review in hopes of helping someone else out there who may be in despair due to life debilitating pain. My Dad was at death's door and in severe pain back in July, and the pain has long since fled and he is getting better week by week. He has also been undergoing chemo and radiation therapy for several months but the pain had completely subsided before this process started). The two biggest factors I credit for the pain vanishing are Laetrile and Frankincense oil, as it was obvious that within weeks after administering this to my Dad he started to "come back to life". Note: I started both at the same time so I cannot tell you which one or if perhaps it's the combination of both that has had this powerful effect.

Good quality for the price
By bkfist
This seems to be every bit as good as another brand I've smelled that comes in a much smaller 1 dram bottle, costing around $29.
From the picture and description I was not 100% positive at the time of ordering if this was the 100% Frankincense, or the already cut version from NOW that is only about 20 or 25% Frankincense. This is the 100% un-cut version of the product.

Be careful of Product You Order
By ryguy
I am very disappointed with this seller. They shipped a 20% concentration of the frankincense diluted in carrier oil, though the page I ordered clearly stated I was ordering 100% pure frankincense essential oil. I contacted the seller immediately to discuss how we can rectify this error, but it's been over a week and the seller has still not even bothered to reply to inquiry. I've waited this long before submitting the review, simply to give the seller a chance to respond and resolve this problem. Should the seller decide to do so, I will update my review at that time.

I noticed when reading some other reviews here that there was a similar story -- the seller substitutes the diluted product for the one they advertise as 100% concentration. I want other potential buyers to be aware that based upon my experience you will not get what you pay for and this seller will not work with or communicate with you. I will definitely not be recommending this product/seller to anyone. If 0 stars were possible, that's how I would rate them. There is simply no excuse for customer service that poor. There are so many other good sellers available on Amazon and this has truly been my first bad experience. I would recommend that you keep looking for another source to buy this product.

UPDATE 7/10: In good conscience I felt it necessary to update this review. Within a couple of days after submitting the original review I received a notice from the vendor that they would refund my purchase. They did exactly that and I could not have asked for anything more. I appreciate their willingness to make things right and hassle-free and have therefore raised my rating from 1 star to 4 stars. I left one star off for the inconvenience/issue, but the product received did seem to be of good quality for what it was and felt it correct to raise the rating based on the outcome of my situation. I appreciate that this seller ultimately did the right thing to rectify the situation
