Ancient Plant DESTROYS Cancer Cells

Boy, things have changed…
When I was first practicing in Tennessee, I’m pretty sure you could get thrown in jail for just SAYING “marijuana.”
Maybe even for THINKING about it.
It’s no secret that the cannabis (marijuana) plant was a major casualty of the “war on drugs” – even though it’s been used in natural medicine for THOUSANDS of years.
But like I said, things have changed.
Because scientists have just made a MAJOR discovery about a special oil made from cannabis.
And it may be one of the most powerful natural cancer-fighters on the face of the Earth.
CBD (cannabidiol) is one of over hundreds of active compounds found in cannabis.
When you take CBD, it doesn’t have any mind-altering effects.
In fact, you could take a bath in CBD oil, while drinking a CBD smoothie, and smoking a CBD cigarette and still have your wits about you.
THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is the chemical in cannabis that causes people to become “high”– most modern CBD oils have no THC in them.
To understand how CBD fights cancer, you should understand how cancerous cells live and die.
Inside every cell in your body is a system of factors that regulate the life and the death of the cell.
The “switch” for cell life or death is a compound called ceramide.
If ceramide is high in the cell, then a cell will soon die (also called “apoptosis”). If ceramide is low, the cell is strong and active.
Cancer cells have receptors (called CB1 and CB2) which cause an increase in ceramide when CBD attaches to those receptors.
So, if you take CBD oil, it travels through your blood, attaches to the CB1 and CB2 receptors on cancer cells, and produces more ceramide, in turn, killing the cancer cell.
And since normal cells don’t behave the same as cancer cells, CBD has no effect on them.
CBD specifically targets cancer cells, while leaving our healthy cells alone.
Many recent studies support the use of CBD with cancer and found it to be safe and non-toxic. CBD increases cancer cell death, keeps cells from spreading, and cuts off their energy supply.
The key is to keep taking CBD oil steadily, over a period of time, to keep pressure on the cancer cells.
CBD oil is legal in most states now, and doctors are becoming increasingly comfortable with recommending it. Your doctor should be able to tell you how to get CBD in your state.
Health and Happiness,
