Hope for those fighting Cancer .
CBD and other chemicals found in Cannabis have an antitumor effect and could be used to improve standard treatments.
CBD successfully stopped cancer cells in multiple different cervical cancer cells.
CBD increased tumor cell death in leukemia and colon cancer.
It also decreased human glioma cell growth and invasion, thus suggesting a possible role of CBD as an antitumor agent.
Cannabinoids may be promising tools in combination therapy for breast and prostate cancer, due to their direct antitumor effects, their ability to improve the effectiveness of conventional antitumor drugs, and their usefulness as a treatment to reduce pain.
Anticancer Mechanisms:
CBD decreased the ability of the cancer cells to produce energy, leading to their death.
CBD treatment helps lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells kill cancer cells better.
CBD blocks CPR55 signaling, decreasing cancer cell proliferation.
What is Prostate Cancer?
The prostate is a gland found in the reproductive system of men.
It is about the size of a walnut, and makes up the majority of semen that carries sperm.
It is found below the bladder surrounding the urethra’s upper part.
The urethra is the tube that carries urine from the bladder.
Men aged 50+ are at the greatest risk for prostate cancer, and it is notorious for being extremely slow growing.
You will not spot many of the symptoms until the cancer’s late stages.
Although prostate cancer can be treated if it remains within the prostate, it is often deadly if allowed to spread through the body.
While doctors are not 100% sure what causes prostate cancer, they agree that diet is a significant factor.
Eating large amounts of fat from red meat is believed to contribute, while any meat cooked at high temperatures can produce cancer-causing substances that may impact the prostate. Doctors also believe that high levels of testosterone increase the risk, while lack of exercise is also a risk factor.
