Tumors and cancer are becoming more and more prevalent in America each year. The cancer mortality rate is currently over 171 per 100,000 Americans. For perspective, this means that over 500,000 Americans die annually from cancer, according to the CDC. Full-Spectrum products are filled with cannabinoids and terpenes that research is showing will fight cancer – often better than western medicine. CBD has been shown to slow the growth of breast cancer cells with incredible success. Many people, including Olivia Newton-John have used CBD as treatment for their cancer struggles. What other cannabinoids/terpenes may help?
CBG
Cannabigerol (CBG) is a major cannabinoid found in That’s Natural’s products that is discussed in this study as a potential treatment for colorectal cancer. The cell growth was examined and recorded. The study concluded by saying: “CBG inhibited the growth of xenograft tumours as well as chemically induced colon carcinogenesis. CBG hampers colon cancer progression in vivo and selectively inhibits the growth of CRC cells, an effect shared by other TRPM8 antagonists. CBG should be considered translationally in CRC prevention and cure.”
CBC
Cannabichromene (CBC) is a another cannabinoid in That’s Natural products that allows more anandamide to remain in a patient’s system because it inhibits its uptake. What does this mean? It means that the body’s immune system is improved so that it can use healthy chemicals like anandamide to rid itself of cancer. These studies show the impact of that on colorectal cancer and breast cancer.
D-Limonene
D-Limonene is a terpene in hemp, and found in That’s Natural Products. This study, from the National Institutes of Health explains that Limonene will actually enhance the impact of chemotherapy. The mammary carcinomas by limonene appears to involve tissue redifferentiation. The study concluded that, “The multiple antitumorigenic effects of limonene are attainable at a high therapeutic ratio, suggesting that limonene and related monoterpenes may be efficacious in the chemoprevention and chemotherapy of human malignancies.”
Alpha - Humulene
Alpha - Humulene is another prominent terpene found in That’s Natural’s full spectrum products. This study from the National Institutes of Health again suggests that it may be helpful in fighting cancer. It concluded that “These results suggest that Glutathione depletion and reaction oxygen species production may be implicated in the cytotoxicity of alpha-humulene and balsam fir oil.”
The research is certainly not limited to these studies, and there are even more cannabinoids and terpenes aside from these that have a remarkable amount of evidence supporting these concepts.
*************
