Reported clinical response for BCCs and SCCs to hypericin and photodynamic therapy in one study [15], but found the combination to be less effective in another human study [16].
Coffee consumption was related to decreased prevalence of NMSC in two studies [17, 18]. No association between coffee consumption and NMSC in one study [19].
Inconsistent results in human studies. Regular tea consumption was associated with reduced risk of SCC and BCC incidence in one study [20], but no reduction in SCC risk in another study [21]. Case reported efficacy for basal cell nevus syndrome with green tea body wrap [22].

Cases reported no improvement of BCC and extensive skin necrosis with black salve application [23, 24]. Case reported metastasis of BCC with bloodroot [25].
