Cannabis is a depressant drug-it controls brain and body function slowly. Taking large dose of cannabis may cause hallucinogenic effects. The main active chemical in cannabis is THC (delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol). Studies suggest chemicals called phytocannabinoids could stop cancer cells multiplying and spreading, block the blood supply to tumours, and reduce cancer’s ability to survive chemotherapy.
THC, the chemical in cannabis which makes people high could be useful. After reviewing 100 past studies, scientists at Rostock University Medical Centre in Germany have claimed chemicals in cannabis could fight cancer. Exploring phytocannabinoids in plant could produce anti-cancer drug.
Cannabis has anti-cancer effects, previous research has shown cannabis can reduce cancer treatment side effects such as nausea and sickness, but it could also help to directly fight the disease. Studies have shown cannabinoids may stop cancer cells from dividing and invading normal tissue, and may block the blood supply to tumours.
Cannabinoids may stimulate the immune system to fight cancer, phytocannabinoids in the plant could positively stimulate the brain, immune system and hormone system to fight against tumours. Data from previous research also suggests cannabinoids effect and potentially control the way cancer develops resistance to chemotherapy.
