Olivia Newton-John
reveals she is using
cannabis oil to treat pain
as she battles cancer for
third time
Olivia Newton-John has revealed
she has been diagnosed with cancer
for the third time in three decades,
saying "I believe I will win over it".
The Grease star revealed she is
treating the cancer with modern
medicine and natural remedies,
including using cannabis oil to ease
the pain.
The 69-year-old actress appeared on
Australian TV on Sunday night where
she revealed doctors found a tumour
in her lower back in 2017.
She told news program "Sunday
Night" she was "treating it naturally
and doing really well".
Newton-John said she had
undergone radiation treatments
since being diagnosed with the
disease for the third time but was
also adopting natural remedies.
The English-Australian actress said
she was using cannabis oil from
plants grown by her husband in
California as she called on Australia
to legalise medical marijuana.
“In California it’s legal to grow a
certain amount of plants for your
own medicinal purposes. So [my
husband] makes me tinctures... they
help with pain,” she told Sunday
Night.
