See Cancer Cells Dying…
The last two newsletters I wanted to focus on some of the basic concerns around smoking marijuana while at the same time acknowledging that there are health benefits.
Today I want to go deeper into the research that is being done on using Cannabis Oil to kill cancer cells.
There is enough data out there now that it cannot be ignored that Cannabis Oil does in fact kill cancer cells in the human body.
In fact, in test tube experiments 100% of the cancer cells died.
Many things are going on as to why the Cannabis oil is able to kill the cancer cells.
Because Cannabis oil is a fat soluble substance it is easily absorbed into the cells of the body.
Some of Cannabinoids’ properties are:
- Anitproliferative: Prevents cancer cells from reproducing
- Antiangiogenic: Prevents formation of new blood vessels needed by tumors to grow
- Antimetastic: Prevents cancer cells from spreading to other organs
- Apoptotic: Induces cancer cells to die
Cannabis Oil is able to destroy cancer cells without causing any harm to healthy normal cells.
Of course this is key to have an agent that can kill the cancer and not harm other parts of the body in the process.
No traditional treatment can make this claim.
This treatment is especially exciting news for brain tumors.
The brain has extra protections from harmful agents passing from the blood to the brain cells.
Because of Cannabinoids’ fat-soluble nature it is able to pass through the protection barriers and reach the cancer cells in the brain and kill them.
New research is showing that the Cannabinoids actually communicate with the cancer cells through Cannabinoid receptors that are on the surface of the cells instructing them to commit suicide.
Another side of this research is that due to THC’s proapototic effect it is able to encourage aging cells to die before having the opportunity to mutate into cancer cells.
Most of the research is being down in Europe as the climate here in this country has been so closed even to the idea of medical marijuana. This is of course changing.
There was even a headline in the local paper. “Republicans ‘experimenting’ with marijuana” with upcoming elections in the horizon.
It is impossible to ignore that marijuana is part of our society both by those who are using it recreational but more importantly by those who found it’s medical benefits to be life saving and at the very least life supportive.
My own hope is that with all the research and information that is coming out it will help people to have access to this plant for its’ life affirming qualities.
