A diagnosis of cancer is a very scary thing. The standard treatment for cancer is chemotherapy, however, this is especially problematic because usually there is a narrow therapeutic window and potential for serious toxic effects of chemotherapy drugs. Additionally, several cancer types have been found to be drug resistant. The cannabis plant produces hundreds of compounds with potential therapeutic properties, and many of them have been found to kill cancer and prevent cancer from spreading.
In this episode of CNT, we highlight ongoing important questions - how does cannabis affect chemotherapy treatment and more importantly, why aren't we already integrating these cannabinoids into cancer treatment protocols?
