Condition
Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma is the most common skin cancer, starting in basal cells of the skin's outer layer after years of UV exposure and often appearing as a pearly bump or a sore that lingers. Little research on supplements for it has been reviewed here so far, so there are no trial findings to report yet. Nicotinamide, a form of vitamin B3, has the strongest evidence among options people discuss, followed by vitamin D.
