Over 50% of people that have
cancer suffer from chronic pain. Studies show a higher percentage of
bone cancer patients suffer from pain.(Source)
Bone Cancer can result in a
lot of pain. In a recent study on mice and humans it was found that
cannabinoids found in cannabis reduce pain caused by C-fiber
nociceptors, CB2
Receptors(Source)
and WIN-55(Source).
They react to slow down the pain signals going to the brain giving
relief to the pain.(Source)
A low dose cannabis treatment can mitigate the pain associated with
bone cancer.(Source)
The effect of the CB2
receptors from cannabis treatment has shown to reduce bone loss and
fracturing.(Source)
The receptors increase bone cell renewal and reduce bone resorption.
Marijuana has shown to increase bone density and reduce osteoporosis
to keep bones healthy.(Source)
Many cancer patients
describe the cannabis application of Rick Simpson Oil or also known
as Phoenix Tears to help and cure their cancer and reduce pain. Rick
Simpson created his own cannabis oil by slow boiling the whole plant
to get a concentrated form of cannabinoid oil. It can be taken
orally in drops under the tongue or applied topically to the area of
pain or cancer. Many patients have cured their cancer and attributed
it to Rick Simpson Oil.
