Medical Cannabis Shows Promise in Cancer Care, Landmark Study Finds
A landmark international study suggests medical cannabis may support cancer treatment, potentially slowing disease progression and improving quality of life for patients. Described as the largest investigation to date, the research tracked thousands of cancer patients prescribed cannabis-based medicines as part of their care. While results are encouraging, experts caution that longer, controlled studies are needed to confirm cause and effect and determine optimal dosing. Data from leading medical centers and public health researchers indicates significant relief from pain, nausea, and anxiety, alongside improvements in quality of life for some participants.
