The Story of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors and Immunotherapy Federally funded research spanning decades helped scientists develop immune checkpoint inhibitors, transforming treatment for melanoma, lung cancer, and other cancers.

Cancer treatment can change your skin.

Gentle skincare can help restore comfort and support your skin barrier.

Your skin may change during cancer treatment—and that’s okay.

Cancer treatments can make the skin feel drier, tighter, and more sensitive than usual. These changes are common and deserve gentle, compassionate care.

A simple skincare routine focused on hydration and protecting the skin barrier may help improve comfort and support your skin’s natural function.

Every person’s journey is different. If you are currently undergoing cancer treatment, always consult your healthcare team before introducing new skincare products or professional treatments.

Caring for your skin is also a way of caring for yourself.

🧬 Does NAD+ Cause Cancer?

NAD+ supplements have gained attention for their potential role in healthy aging and energy production. But what does current research actually tell us about cancer?

🔬 Here’s what we know so far:

✔️ Current clinical evidence has not shown that NAD+ supplements cause cancer in humans.

✔️ Because both healthy and cancer cells use NAD+, researchers continue to study how these supplements may affect people with active cancer.

✔️ Some laboratory and animal studies have raised important questions, but these findings have not been confirmed in human clinical studies.

At Baru Skincare, we are committed to sharing evidence-based educational information related to supportive skincare and wellness during and after cancer treatment. As research continues to evolve, it’s important to rely on trusted medical guidance when making healthcare decisions.

If you have cancer, are undergoing treatment, or are considering dietary supplements, talk with your oncology care team before making changes to your healthcare routine.

Your skin barrier is your body’s first line of defense.

During cancer treatment, the skin barrier can become weaker, making the skin more vulnerable to dryness, irritation, and infections.

Supporting the skin barrier with gentle skincare and avoiding harsh ingredients can help improve comfort and protect the skin.

Every person’s skin is different, so skincare should always be adapted to individual needs and discussed with the healthcare team when appropriate.
