Colorectal cancers shrink and die when exposed to CBD and TRAIL treatment, researchers in South Korea find. “Cannabis cures cancer” is a false and dangerous statement — for now. It’s false because although some research suggests compounds in cannabis may trigger cell death in some human tumors, a definitive link is far from clinically proven. And it is dangerous, because credulous people have been taken by false promises that cannabis can cure cancer — the leading example of weed-related fake news, mind you— and suffer ill health and criminal justice consequences as a result. This is the disclaimer and the context necessary to frame a blog post about this recent study, in which researchers have found evidence suggesting that CBD, or cannabidiol, might in fact help certain cancer drugs in their mission to kill certain cancers. If true — a very large if, but a strong possibility! Study: CBD May Help Cancer Drugs Kill Certain Cancer Cells
