Not like a research from Johns Hopkins, but let's consider it

"Florida Atlantic University's Schmidt College of Medicine and collaborators are the first to demonstrate in vivo the chemo-preventive properties of alpha-santalol against prostate cancer development using a transgenic mouse model."

So as with all phytochemicals that aren’t planned to made into medicine we will not see any trials so we will have a difficult time trying to find the dose for humans and best delivery method for prostate or any other cancers.

to be honest I am finding a lot of research on this oil, especially for skin cancer, I would be surprised if someone wouldn't move it to clinical stage sooner or later

Excellent, i was trying to search of extraction methods for sandlewood. It looks like it is done through steam distillation. Which i can do but it takes lots of material to do it. Better to buy it since it is widely used for many things.

I can see it would be very easy to use on skin cancer as it is a direct application. Just trickier to figure how to get it to a cold deep prostate cancer tumor via oral or topical means.

maybe use DMSO to carry it through the epidermis bypassing gut and liver.

I love the smell of sandalwood in the morning... smells like victory...

I use a sandalwood cream that I really like...smooth on the skin and the aroma... magnifico !!!

On a more serious note, I hope FAU can find a collaborator for continued development....maybe...in China....
