Ever since the mid 70s, medical scientists have been well aware of the beneficial effects of cannabinoid compounds over cancerous cell. Further evidence to support the effects of cannabis extract on malignant cells comes from the real life experience of individuals who have successfully overcome cancer by using cannabis oil.
Sharon Kelly was diagnosed with Stage IV non-small lung cancer in January 2014.
Her condition was deemed terminal, although it was discovered that an oral chemotherapeutic drug called Tarceva could potentially extend her life. With the drug, she was given 6 to 9 months to live.
Sharon discovered that cannabis oil could actually save her life, and began using it along with Tarceva in February 2014. She was able to increase her intake by adding cannabis suppositories as well. The combination of treatments proved very potent, and by September 3rd, 2014, a scan showed Sharon was cancer free.
In February 2015, medical tests indicated cancer cells had reemerged in Sharon's lungs. This recurrence is much smaller compared to the original tumors Sharon had, and she is using aggressive cannabis extract therapy to once again beat the cancer.
Her experience has made her one of the most powerful activists in the Australian medicinal cannabis community.
Cannabis cures cancer
Health researchers for the US government claim that cannabinoids — the active ingredients in cannabis — can inhibit the illness by causing cell death and blocking key blood vessels needed by tumours to grow.
They say studies in mice and rats show cannabinoids may be able to kill cancer cells — while still protecting normal cells.
The National Cancer Institute (NCI), one of the federal government sponsored agencies, admits that cannabis kills cancer.They found that, "cannabinoids may inhibit tumor growth by causing cell death, blocking cell growth, and blocking the development of blood vessels needed by tumors to grow. Laboratory and animal studies have shown that cannabinoids may be able to kill cancer cells while protecting normal cells".
