Cannabis Kills All Types of Cancer Cells That Science Has Tested so Far
By Dr Cheryl Strayed (Healthinfo) 1.12.2018
Standard cancer treatment must be adapted
to the type and location of tumour, whereas
cannabis is an equal opportunity killer.
Cannabis kills all types of cancer cells.
Curing cancer is the holy grail of medical
research and it’s the most-coveted
breakthrough of our time.
If we could discover a way to prevent
malignant cells from overrunning the human
body, not only would we save millions of
lives, we would end years of suffering. And,
we could finally feel superior to sharks which
are rumoured to be cancer free
Even if the same treatments are effective at
stopping the cancer, the collateral damage to
brain cells is just too risky.
But when cannabis treats cancer, it doesn’t
cause the kind of negative side effects that
chemotherapy, for instance, does.
Although human trials and solid scientific
research are still a ways off, early studies
indicated that cannabis might be the one truly
universal way to kill cancer cells.
Cannabis Stops Blood Vessel Formation For
All Types of Tumours
Is cannabis the way? Studies, so far, show
that cannabis kills all types of cancer cells.
One Treatment Doesn’t Fit All
While chemotherapy and radiation have
certainly helped humanity’s battle against
cancer, research into the recently discovered
(1990s) endocannabinoid system keeps
providing new information about how
tumours form, spread and turn deadly.
But cancer isn’t just one thing.
It’s an umbrella term for a collection of
related illnesses.
What unites these is the method of mayhem:
cancer divides and spreads like ants at a
picnic. And because it’s not just one kind of
ant, we’ve developed slightly different ways
to deal with each species.
Partially, that’s because when cancer infects
the brain, we can’t necessarily handle it the
way we would handle cancer in the foot.
One of the key ways that cannabis combats
cancer is through anti-angiogenic effects.
That sounds like a mouthful, but the concept
is straightforward.
Angiogenesis is the process by which new
blood vessels form from old ones — like a
potato sprouting.
New blood vessels are how wounds heal,
people grow, and new and better pathways
form for circulation.
It’s a vital and healthy part of the body’s daily
regimen. But it’s also how tumours transition
from benign growths to malignant cancers.
Cancer creates cells that don’t have the ability
to divide in a controlled fashion, leading to
out-of-control growth.
But what fuels that growth? For tumours to
get larger and spread, they need a supply of
essential nutrients and oxygen, which they get
from the bloodstream.
So when a cancer begins to grow, it has to do
so at the same rate as the blood vessels which
nourish it.
