There are over 3 million people affected by anemia each year in the US. It can lead to reduced oxygen flow to the body’s organs. There are over 400 types of anemia that are divided into 3 groups: anemia caused by blood loss, anemia caused by decreased or faulty red blood cell production, and anemia caused by destruction of red blood cells.

Symptoms may include fatigue, skin pallor, shortness of breath, lightheadedness, dizziness, cold hands and feet, or a fast heartbeat. Treatments include iron supplements to help with iron deficiency, vitamin B supplements for low vitamin levels, blood transfusions for blood loss, bone marrow transplants, painkillers, antibiotics, and surgery.

One of the worst types of anemia is sickle cell anemia. Sickle cell anemia is when the cells die early, leaving a shortage of healthy red blood cells and can block blood flow causing pain (sickle cell crisis). Symptoms of sickle cell anemia include infection, pain, and fatigue. Treatments for sickle cell anemia include medications, blood transfusions, and bone-marrow transplants.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive compound derived from the hemp plant known for its potential therapeutic effects. CBD administration suppressed irregular heartbeat caused by ischemia-induced heart arrhythmias (inadequate blood supply in the heart). Thus, CBD provides the heart with protection. CBD’s benefits for anemia is for the alleviation of the symptoms linked to anemia.

CBD possesses incredible medicinal properties such as anti-inflammatory, anti-anxiety, pain relieving, and antipsychotic properties which can be really helpful in reducing the symptoms of anemia. Weakness, stress, headache, low stamina, reduced concentration are some common symptoms of anemia.

CBD oil by acting on the ECS can help in fighting such symptoms. Eidon Minerals Iron Liquid Concentrate and Good Life Blood Pressure Support capsules are a healthy way to help balance the iron levels in the bloodstream.

CBD for Skin Cancer

Skin Cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S., and is a broad term describing an abnormal growth of cells that can spread. The areas of the body most affected are those that are exposed to the sun, but skin cancer can develop anywhere on the body. The most common cause of skin cancer is to due sun exposure, more specifically exposure to UVB radiation. This type of radiation comes from not only the sun but also sunlamps and tanning booths. Avoiding exposure to UVB radiation and using sunscreen when you are outdoors may help prevent some skin cancers from forming. There are a few common types of skin cancer that include Basal cell, Squamous Cell and Melanoma. Basal cell skin cancer is a type of skin cancer that begins in the basal cells. Basal cells produce new skin cells as old ones die. This cancer typically appears as a white waxy lump or a brown scaly patch on sun-exposed areas, such as the face and neck. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the skin is the second most common form of skin cancer, characterized by abnormal, accelerated growth of squamous cells. SCCs can appear as scaly red patches, open sores, rough, thickened or wart-like skin, or raised growths with a central depression. The most serious type of skin cancer is called Melanoma. Melanoma happens when the pigment-producing cells that give color to the skin become cancerous. Symptoms of this include new, unusual growth or a change in an existing mole. Treatment for skin cancer includes radiation therapy, chemotherapy, prescribed creams, and in some cases surgery to remove the cancer. Each treatment for skin cancer contains negative side effects that includefatigue, easy bruising and bleeding, infection, nausea, vomiting, anemia, weight changes, and fertility problems. Cannabidiol (CBD) is a non-psychoactive compound derived from the hemp plant known for its potential therapeutic effects. When you apply CBD topically, your skin absorbs it. Your skin contains cannabinoid receptors that make CBD a potential therapy for many conditions that range from dry skin to skin cancer.One study showed several cannabinoids including cannabigerol (CBG), non-psychoactive cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabidivarin (CBV) seemed to “switch off” skin cells that grow uncontrollably. Uncontrolled growth of this kind is a factor in skin allergies and skin cancers. In this study, the researchers documented the effects of these three cannabinoids on human skin cell lines. CBD was the most effective of the three in addressing unwanted DNA activity, with CBG coming in second. The researchers in the study claim Phyto cannabinoids such as CBD appear to stop detrimental DNA activity that promotes skin cancer. The Miller Healer 2000mg Tincture can be taken sublingually to help alleviate the symptoms of skin cancer. The Miller Healer 1000mg Salve Stick or Miller Healer 2000mg Cream can be applied topically to help with skin cancer as well. Always consult your primary care physician before starting a new regimen.

THC and CBD for Cancer

admin — Thu, 27 Feb 2020 11:29:00 +0000

In 2019, roughly 1.8 million people were diagnosed with cancer in the United States. Cancer is a disease in which abnormal cells divide uncontrollably and destroy body tissue. Cancer develops when the body’s normal control mechanism stops working. Old cells do not die and instead grow out of control, forming new, abnormal cells.

These extra cells may form a mass of tissue, called a tumor. Cancer is characterized by persistent cough, blood in saliva, bloody stool, anemia, blood in urine, persistent lumps, swollen glands, unusual vaginal bleeding, fever, weight loss, headaches, back pain, pelvic pain and much more.

There are many different types of cancer, but the most common types include breast, prostate, basal cell, melanoma, colon, lung, leukemia and lymphoma.

Treatment for cancer includes surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy.Cancer treatments such as chemo and radiation can produce an array of side effects, such as weakened immune system, bruising, hair loss, nausea, vomiting, neuropathy, labored breathing, constipation, diarrhea, fatigue and different types of body aches and pain.

Research shows that cannabinoids in marijuana may slow cancer growth, inhibit formation of new blood cells that feed a tumor, and help manage pain, fatigue, nausea, and other side effects. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the chemical responsible for most of marijuana’s psychological effects.

One study found that cancer cells died when they were exposed to THC concluding that THC induces apoptosis (cell death) in brain cancer. Studies in several countries would show that THC and other marijuana-derived compounds, known as cannabinoids, are effective not only for cancer-symptom management, they also confer a direct antitumoral effect.

THC slows tumor growth in common lung cancer and significantly reduces the ability of the cancer to spread.THC also selectively targets and destroys tumor cells while leaving healthy cells untouched.

Cannabidiol (CBD) is the non-psychoactive component of the marijuana plant. CBD is a potent inhibitor of breast cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, and tumor growth.

Studies show that CBD kills breast cancer cells and destroys malignant tumors by switching off expression of the ID-1 gene, a protein that appears to play a major role as a cancer cell conductor. Studies that focused on leukemia found that THC and CBD both induce apoptosis (cell death) in leukemic cell lines.

CBD and THC offers hope of a non-toxic therapy that could treat aggressive forms of cancer without any of the painful side effects of chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
