How You Can Help Make Cannabis Oil Available To All Cancer Patients

It’s hard to believe that multiple governments, including the United Nations still regard cannabis as an illegal drug. Despite the fact that it has a wide range of therapeutic properties, it still faces a heavy opposition, especially in North America. Granted, we might not know for sure with absolute mainstream scientific certainty that cannabis oil, without a shadow of any doubt, kills all cancers in all humans with cancer. We don’t know this, and can’t say it for sure because there hasn’t been any (unfortunately) human clinical trials to see if it’s actually true.

The Science Behind The Claims

What we do know, on the other hand, is that multiple studies in peer reviewed scientific journals have clearly outlined the antitumoral effects of cannabis. For example, a study published in the British Journal of Cancer, conducted by the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Complutense University in Madrid, determined that Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and other cannabinoids inhibit tumor growth. They were responsible for the first clinical study aimed at assessing cannabinoid antitumoral action. Cannabinoid delivery was safe and was achieved with zero psychoactive effects. THC was found to decrease tumor cells in two out of the nine patients. (1)

HERE is a video of Dr. Christina Sanchez, a molecular biologist at Compultense University in Madrid, Spain, clearly explaining how THC (the main psychoactive constitute of the cannabis plant) completely kills cancer cells.

HERE you will find several of studies with regards to the potential for cannabis to help treat/cure Leukemia.

A study published in the Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics already acknowledged the fact that cannabinoids have been shown to possess anti-tumor properties. The study examined the effect of cannabidiol (CBD, non psychoactive cannabinoid compound) on human glioma cell lines. The addition of cannabidiol led to a dramatic drop in the viability of glioma cells. Glioma is the word used to describe brain tumour. The study concluded that cannabidiol was able to produce significant antitumor activity. (2)

A study published in the Journal Molecular Cancer showed that THC reduced tumour growth and tumour numbers. They determined that cannabinoids inhibit cancer cell proliferation, induce cancer cell apoptosis and impair tumour angiogenesis. The study provides strong evdience for the use of cannabinoid based therapies for the management of breast cancer. (3)

A study published in the American Journal of Cancer determined that cannabinoid receptors are expressed in human pancreatic tumor cell lines and tumour biopsies at much higher levels than in normal pancreatic tissue. Results showed that cannabinoid administration induced apoptosis. They also reduced the growth of tumour cells, and inhibited the spreading of pancreatic tumour cells.(4)

A study published by the US National Library of Medicine, conducted by Harvard Medical School investigated the role of cannabinoid receptors in lung cancer cells. They determined its effectiveness and suggested that it should be used for treatment against lung cancer cells.

A study published by the US National Library of Medicine by the Institute of Toxicology and Pharmacology, from the Department of General Surgery in Germany determined that cannabinoids inhibit cancer cell invasion. Effects were confirmed in primary tumour cells from a lung cancer patient. Overall, data indicated that cannabinoids decrease cancer cell invasiveness.

The list literally goes on and on, the truth is that there are hundreds of peer reviewed studies showing that the active constituents within cannabis play a significant role in killing cancer cells. Again, there are hundreds of these studies, and the anti-tumoral effects of it when it comes to cancer have been known for decades. So ask yourself, if all of this has been known for such a long time, why have we not seen any human clinical trials take place?

Human Success Stories

Regardless of the lack of clinical trials regarding cannabis as a treatment, it has not stopped individuals with cancer taking this route as a form of alternative cancer treatment.

Human success stories are similar to the science behind the claims, there are many of them.

One of the best publicly known examples is Mykayla Comstock. You can check out her website here . In Mykala’s case, her cell counts affected by cannabis decreased as soon as she began cannabis treatment, from a 51 % lymphoblast count in July of 2012 all the way to 0 % in August of 2012. July 30th was the very last time they found lymphoblasts in Mykayla’s blood smear. You can read more about her treatment, and how she did it by clicking HERE

A case study we wrote about examines a teenage female who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia with a Philadelphia chromosome mutation. This mutation accounts for a much more aggressive case of Leukemia.The patient underwent standard treatments of acute and aggressive chemotherapy as well as bone marrow transplants. It was found that none of these treatments were effective which led the family to explore alternatives. The alternative they chose was to treat with cannabinoids administered orally in the form of hemp oil. You can read about that here.

In a recent report, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the Federal government’s National Institutes of Health (NIH), stated that marijuana “inhibited the survival of both estrogen receptor–positive and estrogen receptor–negative breast cancer cell lines.” The same report showed marijuana slows or stops the growth of certain lung cancer cells and suggested that marijuana may provide “risk reduction and treatment of colorectal cancer.” You can read more about that here.

The Legalization of Cannabis

The legalization of cannabis for medicinal use of cannabis continues to gain strength, especially in the United States. Medical marijuana is legal in multiple states, and more bills are being brought forward by other states to do the same. We are witnessing a time in history, and currently going through the period where the legalization of medical marijuana is accelerating exponentially.

Cannabis has shown success in not just cancer studies, but a variety of other health ailments. That’s why it makes absolutely no sense to keep it illegal for people who would like to use it medicinally. The science coupled with the human success stories indicates the tremendous medicinal potential that’s available within this plant.

  1. Cannabis oil cure my husband lung cancer

    Cannabis oil is an anti-cancer and it is very effective for curing cancer. My husband lung cancer was cured with cannabis oil

    medication, my husband was diagnosed of lung cancer in 2014 and he has done many cycles of chemotherapy and the cancer was still

    there. Until we came across an alternative treatment which is cannabis oil. We purchase the cannabis oil from Mottiff Cancer

    centre through e-mail mottiffcancercentre@gmail.com and we were given directives on how to use the cannabis oil to cure lung

    cancer permanently. My husband used the cannabis oil for 3 months and the cancer was cured effectively. The family was us

    surprised after the Doctor carried out the MRI and confirmed that the cancer has gone. Cancer patients out there, with cannabis

    oil medication there is hope of living again if you are suffering from cancer.
