Life expectancy for pancreatic cancer really hasn’t changed in the last 40 years or so, and only about 5% survive 5 years. In this study of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma it was shown that adding CBD from cannabis (marijuana) to the treatment regimen in these mice nearly tripled the survival time. The authors recommend that clinical […]

CBD is a major component of cannabis (marijuana) and has been found to have many positive effects on human physiology. In this published […]
Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is one of the most malignant forms of cancer and survival rate is only about 1 year. It has been found that pancreatic tumor tissue has higher concentrations of endocannabinoid receptors than normal pancreas tissue. In two animal models of pancreatic cancer, cannabinoids (natural components of marijuana) reduced the growth of tumor cells, […]
