ESSENTIAL TREMOR AND PARKINSON’S DISEASE
Potential future use of THC-V for parkinson's disease and Essential Tremor
We are all looking for more evidence regarding the efficacy treating cancer with CBD and/or THC. There is a plethora of articles on the issue and particularly a lot of data with regard to treating Glioblastomas – a very challenging Brain Cancer that is most common in children.
I believe there are three points to be taken home with regard to Cannabidiol and Glioblastomas backed by the articles below. Again, there are hundreds of articles and these are not the final answer for certain, but consider the safety of CBD and the probably great efficacy of CBD, it seems reasonable therapy to consider.
So, the three major points:
1. CBD helps aid the Glioblastoma cells in committing apoptosis or “cellular suicide”. It is this property that helps prevent the tumor from becoming tolerant to chemotherapy
2. CBD helps increase the efficacy of chemotherapy
3. CBD helps increase the efficacy of radiation
So, cannabis, at least in my opinion, is an adjuvant form of anti-cancer therapy. It works with Chemo and Radiation therapy and perhaps also has efficacy without them

When we think of the “Placebo Effect” we think of an effect that is “imagined”.
I have always been a big fan of Governor Brown and remain so.
Although cannabis now comes in two flavors, Medical and Recreational. There is no doubt that recreational cannabis will survive forever.
