An 81-year-old man, who has not yet been identified, managed to shrink his tumors in half after being diagnosed with lung cancer and refusing traditional cancer treatment such as chemotherapy and radiation.
Ms Mani, from Birmingham, UK, found a lump in her breast in March 2017 and soon after was diagnosed with breast cancer. Doctors offered her chemotherapy, which is standard medical treatment. However, Dee refused because it failed to keep her sister alive. She studied alternative medicine and found out about cannabis oil. Doctors gave her the all-clear just five months after she opted for the oil.
On Monday, Britain’s Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) decided CBD — which can treat illnesses and conditions from severe childhood epilepsy to autism to cancer — warranted the classification as a medicine based on credible evidence of its efficacy. Unlike in the U.S. — where the substance is now considered devoid of medical benefit by the DEA.
As reported by Motherboard, the drug industry is now pushing for legislation that would make CBD oil illegal — by turning it into a drug.6The article discusses a South Dakota Senate bill, SB 95, which would exempt CBD from the definition of cannabis, thereby transferring it from a Schedule I controlled substance to a Schedule IV substance. This would allow CBD products to be sold, legally, in South Dakota, where medicinal marijuana is currently not allowed.
