Cannabis Shrinks Aggressive Brain Tumors

MRI Evidence of 3 Recent Case Studies

cannabisvscancer

The essential oil of cannabis may indeed be a “cure” for several diverse cancers once the dosing and other details are worked out. While taking care not to call it a panacea there are simply far too many cases of incredible remissions from seemingly incurable cancers to ignore these reports.

We are running out of time with our “war on cancer.” Experts agree that conventional approaches using drugs and radiation are a failure in treating most deadly cancers. Except of course for the National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society (see below Dr Epstein) who maintain the illusion of progress.

That means we need to determine if cannabis is the winner we all hope it will be. But before that happens we desperately need more human clinical research to prove the claims that cannabis cures cancer. While we pensively wait for that work to be accomplished, presented here are several astonishing cases for you to examine.

Catch 22

Right now we find ourselves in an absurd catch 22: the FDA and the DEA have been telling us for forty years that they need more clinical research to prove the medical value of marijuana before it can be removed from its schedule I status. However, before we can obtain valuable clinical research on humans to help remove it from its prohibitive schedule I status, pot must be removed universally from its current prohibitive schedule I status in all of the United States so that even more human clinical trials may be undertaken.

Explosive Growth

Meanwhile the media and our medical academies have been (until the recent passage of legal Medical Marijuana in a variety of States), curiously silent on the explosion of new cancer cases seen each year both in the US and abroad. In case you didn’t know, the documented incidence of cancer (all cancers combined) is increasing at a disturbing rate. This is particularly true for many of our deadliest cancers. While the rates escalate successful treatments have not. The death rates for the most deadly forms of cancer such as ovarian, pancreatic or glioblastoma have not significantly budged for 40 years.

Novelty Gone Wild

A hundred years ago cancer was a novelty. For example the US total number of lung cancer cases reported in the year 1900 was about 140. Yes, only 140 cases TOTAL. But over the last century it has become a major culling force. Up from a rare group of disorders to affecting one in three several years ago (US and Canada). Finally, as of 2015, American men stand a one in two chance of getting some kind of cancer in their lifetimes. A one in two chance, fifty-fifty. Women are not far behind. That’s astonishing when cancers like these were as rare as teeth on a drake mallard just a generation ago.

Dr. Epstein: Canary in a Coal Mine

We’ve been warned for decades by prominent academic scholars that cancers are running out of control. Much of this shocking news has been revealed to us in award-winning publications by Emeritus Professor Dr Samuel Epstein. His newest tome “Cancer-Gate: How to Win the Losing War on Cancer” is a groundbreaking new book.

It warns that, contrary to three decades of promises, we are losing the winnable war against cancer, and that the hand-in-glove generals of the federal National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the private “”nonprofit”” American Cancer Society (ACS) have betrayed us. These institutions, Epstein alleges, have spent tens of billions of taxpayer and charity dollars primarily targeting silver-bullet cures, strategies that have largely failed, while virtually ignoring strategies for preventing cancer in the first place. As a result, cancer rates have escalated to epidemic proportions, now striking nearly one in every two men, and more than one in every three women. This translates into approximately 50 percent more cancer in men, and 20 percent more cancer in women over the course of just one generation. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0895033542?*Version*=1&*entries*=0) 10/05/201

In other words, as best-selling author Dr Abramson (Overdosed America) claims, we have lost the “War on Cancer.” The age-adjusted death rate for cancers overall is the same as it was in 1971. This means that should you find yourself diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer you will need to think long and hard about your options. One option is to reject conventional approaches and reach for the hash oil especially if you are diagnosed with a brain tumor.

Glioblastoma Multiforme; The Deadliest of All

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a dreadful brain cancer. Clearly, it is the one cancer you certainly do not want; as if there are some that we do want?

Once diagnosed the patient usually will have just enough time to sort out their affairs before saying goodbye. Along with dozens of other deadly cancers rising like dandelions in the spring, GBM is more bite than bark and impossible to treat. Nothing in conventional medicine offers hope; neither chemotherapy, radiation, nor surgery can alter its fatal course. That’s why when stories circulated of people curing themselves of this certainly very deadly type of cancer with a marijuana concentrate even conservative members of the medical community had to take notice.

Recall GBM’s most famous patient: the late senator Edward Kennedy. He predictably presented with a new onset seizure and was dead a few months later after “state of the art” cancer care from the eminent Duke University Medical Center.

The Good News

It turns out that GBM tumors, like many others, are rife with cannabinoid (CB) receptors. Compelling evidence suggests that cancer cells littered with CB receptors respond well to full-spectrum cannabis preparations. The actions on these receptors from THC provides a valuable model to help explain the function of the phytocannabinoids in shrinking brain tumors.

In November of 2014 an article was published in Molecular Cancer Therapeutics which supported this concept entitled: The Combination of Cannabidiol and Δ9-Tetrahydrocannabinol Enhances the Anticancer Effects of Radiation in an Orthotopic Murine Glioma Model, by Katherine A. Scott, Angus G. Dalgleish, and Wai M. Liu. Department of Oncology, St George’s University of London.

Dr. Liu

In a Washington Post interview with Dr Wai Liu, he describes the results of their groundbreaking discovery in which cannabinoids could play a significant role in treating one of the most aggressive cancers in adults and children.

According to Dr. Liu:

“There are more than 85 cannabinoids, which are known to bind to unique receptors in cells and which receive outside chemical signals. These receptors feed into signaling pathways, telling cells what to do. Recent studies have shown that some cannabinoids have potent anti-cancer action. For example, both THC and CBD have been shown in a number of laboratory studies to effectively induce cell death in tumor cells by modifying the faulty signaling pathways inside these cells. Depending on the cell type, this can disrupt tumor growth or start to kill it.

The psychoactivity associated with some cannabinoids, principally THC (which gives people a cannabis high), is also mediated via the same receptors. Because these receptors are found in the highest abundances in brain cells, it follows that brain tumors also rich in these receptors may respond best to cannabinoids.

Depending on the individual, treatment can consist of surgery, radiotherapy, and/or chemotherapy with the drug temozolomide. However, due primarily to the intricate localization of the tumor in the brain and its invasive behavior, these treatments remain largely unsuccessful.

However, as our study showed, combining radiotherapy with cannabinoid treatment had a big effect.” (https://www.washingtonpost.com/posteverything/wp/2014/11/18/how-pot-helped-shrink-one-of-the-most-aggressive-brain-cancers/) 10/06/2015.
