[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the kid is incredible-what I will say is not about him. It's more thinking about skin cancer and prevention. There is risk in the prevention too. So we all wear lots of sunscreen and are learning those chemicals can be quite toxic, but we do it, especially those of us with more risk because getting melanoma especially would be worse. Why use a soap with a bunch of chemicals too as prevention? If it's an affordable treatment, then awesome, but it will be interesting years from now to see if the research pans out. (Yes, I need to read the article closely too-only skimmed it when it first came out).

I see it's for treatment early on too. Very curious if it's enough. With soap you can't really figure out what dose the person is getting and how much the skin is absorbing vs. what gets washed away.  I commend him for doing this and trying to find it all out. I'm surprised nobody thought of it before. My husband had a skin condition where he was given a special prescription soap as part of the treatment.[/quote]
