October is breast cancer awareness month in my country and I originally wrote this paper for Grow One Africa's Monthly Newsletter, and I thought I could share more information here.

Breast cancer is the 2nd most common cause of death from cancer in women in USA and UK. These stats aren’t available for SA but I can say that I’m still seeing way too much breast-cancer in my practice.
Today we notice an increase in men’s breast cancer and I blame
the fact that so many men carry their cell phones in their top pocket right
there at the breast tissue. I often see women hiding their phones in their bras
and I’m saddened because this is an important part of breast cancer awareness
today.
There’s absolutely no time to waste because in general
breast cancers can double in size every six months
One of the biggest problems with breast cancer is that
there is often no pain to indicate that something is wrong and this is in my
opinion why so many women are diagnosed with stage IV at such young ages. This
really highlights the importance of prevention and early detection.
I urge people not to consider Cannabis medicine only as a
last resort when it should be the first port-of-call, from the moment of
diagnosis and indeed sooner for prevention
Cannabis destroys cancer through more than one mechanism
and the very first thing it does is reduce inflammation. Then the plants
antitumor properties kick in, namely the process of Apoptosis and Autophagy.
Through the Endocannabinoid System (ECS) Cannabis is able
to force mutant cells into a state of “cellular suicide” and this is how the
plant can destroy tumors. Autophagy is the process of cleaning up these damaged
cell membranes, organelles and free-radicals and ridding the body of them.
Please take a look on YouTube for Dr Christina Sanchez
where she describes from a doctors perspective but in very easy to understand
words exactly how apoptosis and autophagy work in the presence of the plant’s chemical
components.
Cannabis also has the ability to cut off the blood supply
to tumors and this is how the plant is able to shrink tumors, as well as by
blocking the growth factors that can trigger mutant cells to divide and grow.
"I found Sista Vee's medicine to be profoundly effective in reducing the bleeding of active and aggressive tumors and keeping wounds relatively clean where most certainly it would be much worse without THC on board." ~ Dr John Wulz, Groote Schuur Hospital, South Africa
Today we are successfully treating triple-negative-metastic
breast cancer (TNBC). In the March 2023 publication of Journal “Anticancer
Research” the paper titled “Phytocannabinoids
in triple negative breast cancer treatment: Current Knowledge and Future
Insights”
Dr Bimonte and her team explain how CBD causes the death
of TNBC cells proving
that Cannabis is a vitally important immune regulatory agent because cancer is
a condition of failed immunity. Cannabis does this with absolutely no damage to
healthy cells or unpleasant side-effects.
A word of caution when dealing with
hormonal cancers:
Many
cancers are driven by hormones for example breast,
endometrium, ovary, vaginal, cervical, prostate, testicular, scrotum, thyroid
and osteosarcoma (bone cancer) and others.
It is important to be aware of the
biphasic effect of medicine and this means that high and low doses can have
opposite effects for example high THC can cause anxiety instead of calming the
patient down and a lower THC higher CBD dose is required.
Cannabis also drives the Endocrine
(hormone) System and this means that patients healing from hormonal cancers
will have better efficacy and will recover better with plants that have high
CBD and low THC levels. CBD can also induce Apoptosis in breast cancer cells.
In people with healthy EC Systems, cells with damaged
DNA, like cancer cells, will either repair themselves or die off in the process
of apoptosis.
The reason why I say that Cannabis is the plant whisperer
of human DNA is because as human beings we share more than 40% of our DNA with
Cannabis sativa L.
In my opinion, this is the number one biological reason
why Cannabis is so effective in curing every cancer that it has been tested
against to this day.
I will never try to
influence a patient that they shouldn’t agree or accept their oncologists’ recommendations
to chemo or radiation treatment, but for patients who do decide to take the
chemo and radiation route, this is where I really see the plant shining in the
way that it can offer real nurturing during this incredibly aggressive
treatment physically, mentally, spiritually and most important on a cellular
level.
Many people are starting to realize the benefits of Cannabis Medicine to help protect them against the harsh side effects of these treatments like nausea, loss of appetite, pain and depression.
Over the past 40 years I have seen hundreds of women, myself included, successfully treat stage-IV breast-cancer, metastic breast-cancer and even flesh-eating breast cancers, and go on to live perfectly normal and healthy lives simply by inviting Cannabis into their lives.
