Japanese scientists discovered something interesting about the bacteria associated with pimples…they destroy skin cancer cells!

Mie University’s Graduate School of Medicine injected the acne bacteria into mice with skin cancer.  Just one injection halted tumor growth for one month, but two injections almost killed the tumor cells!

They speculate that injecting the pimple bacteria into the tumors causes your body’s white cells to go hyper and attack the cancer cells.  Why wouldn’t the white cells attack the cancer cells to begin with? Because the cancer cells are actually your body rebelling against you, your white cells don’t normally attack your own cells (in some cases they do).  So by injecting the cancer cells with a bacteria your body’s white cells target your cancer cells.
