Seniors, CBD, and Cancerous Cells

Cancer is one of the most common chronic medical conditions that people could develop, and it will only become more common. Cancer takes place when cells in the body divide without being controlled by certain regulatory molecules. The more these cells divide, the greater the chances of someone developing cancer. As people live longer, their cells will divide more times, increasing the chances of someone developing cancer before they die. Recently, a significant amount of research has shown that CBD can be beneficial in the treatment of individuals with cancer. Why is this the case, and what do people need to know?

The Endocannabinoid System

CBD exerts its effect by binding to receptors in the endocannabinoid system. CBD is only one of more than 100 cannabinoids that have been isolated within the cannabis plant. Another common cannabinoid is THC. THC is different from CBD because THC is responsible for the psychoactive effects of cannabis. Even though THC might get you high, CBD cannot.

CBD has been shown to have significant medicinal benefits, but some people do not want to get high. Therefore, some strains of cannabis have been bred to have high levels of CBD while also having low levels of THC.

When CBD binds to the endocannabinoid system, neurotransmitters are released that travel throughout the human body. When these neurotransmitters bind to different tissues, they can treat some of the symptoms of cancer. CBD has become a popular treatment option for individuals who have been diagnosed with cancer.

Full Spectrum, Broad Spectrum, or Isolate CBD

When purchasing CBD products, people often see different types. From, broad-spectrum, and isolate CBD. Full-spectrum CBD has the entire profile of cannabinoids and terpenoids. This means that there might be a small amount of THC, but the small amount is unlikely to get someone high.

Broad-spectrum CBD has been narrowed slightly from full-spectrum CBD, but some cannabinoids, such as THC, have probably been eliminated.

CBD isolate is for individuals who want to be sure that there is no THC present at all. The only thing that is left at the end of the filtration process is CBD. This is a good choice for those who are concerned with passing a drug test.

CBD and Cancerous Cell Treatment

CBD has proven effective in the treatment of certain types of cancerous cells. Many patients experienced severe pain as a result of the drugs that are associated with chemotherapy. CBD can be helpful in the treatment of this pain. Researchers have uncovered that CBD can be helpful in reducing neuropathic pain from chemotherapy.

In the past, some patients have had to stop chemotherapy because of the severity of neuropathic pain. Even though this might make their pain better, it also means that the cancer could get worse. Now, CBD could be an effective treatment option for not only chronic pain but also anxiety, nausea, and other devastating side effects of chemotherapy. CBD could give cancer patients the strength to make it through their treatment regimens.
