Appearing in the latter half, Clint Werner, who has worked in the field of preventive health for over 25 years, discussed how certain chemicals called cannabinoids (found in marijuana plants) have amazing healing properties, and can protect the brain by reducing inflammation. One cannabinoid, CBD, is not associated with psychoactive effects, but is being bred into plants because it has medical value such as protecting the eyes of diabetics from retinopathy, he reported. It's been found that cannabinoids have a multi-faceted ability to shrink and inhibit tumors, as well as kill mutated cells, he continued.
While marijuana has traditionally been used to alleviate symptoms from chemotherapy treatments, it's now being experimented with to see if it can function as a chemo agent itself, he detailed. For instance, a concentrated form of cannabis oil taken orally has been shown to shrink or eliminate tumors, he said. Werner also spoke about the struggles of the medical marijuana movement. Though legal in states like California, the situation is complicated by the plant being illegal on a federal level, and some users and providers are still prosecuted. He believes legalization of medical marijuana is inevitable, with possible passage of laws in Colorado and Oregon on the horizon. For more, check out a video of a speech Werner gave at Seattle Hempfest 2012.
