The most fascinating area of cannabis research revolves around an element of the marijuana plant called Cannabidiol, (CBD) a powerful antioxidant that does not produce the psychotropic effects of THC.
CBD shows a unique ability to kill cancer cells in early laboratory tests.
In 2003, the United States government filed a patent on CBD as an antioxidant and neuroprotectant useful in the treatment of disease.
Yet this same government continues to classify marijuana as a Schedule 1 drug with “no currently accepted medical use,” preventing doctors from studying it.
The government’s hypocritical position on CBD leaves patients like Sophie in uncharted waters, as they experimentally use an unregulated medicine that may be saving their lives.
