C B D Oil May Help You

I can confirm that CBD oil is useless.

IMHO CBD oil is one of the biggest scams going - right up there with alkaline water. The placebo effect is an amazing thing.

Scammers take advantage of the feelings that can accompany a diagnosis of cancer. They promote unproven – and potentially dangerous – remedies like cbd oil, Kangen water, hashish, black salve, essiac tea, or laetrile with claims that the products are both “natural” and effective. But “natural” doesn’t mean either safe or effective when it comes to using these treatments for cancer. In fact, a product that is labeled “natural,” can be more than ineffective: it can be downright harmful. Listen to your doctor - not online scammers. There is no easy way out. Cancer can be cured in many cases but not by so called “natural” miracle cures. Don’t be fooled!

Hi. I am new here. My name is Elliot. Shadyguy, I understand that you may have misgivings about trying anything other than what the doctors say. But that is your personal opinon, and your personal preference. We are not here to scan the boards for ideas to shoot down. ShadyGuy, what does someone with cancer do when nothing the doctors have done is working? Just hang it up and lie down and die? I was on a different lymphoma discussion board, where I told my story of how in 1989 I was given 10 years to live when I was diagnosed stage 4 non-hodgkins, and how I am cancer-free, alive and healthy as of today, 30+ years later. Another member, who was 11 years out, and cancer-free, razzed and made fun of what I had to say, and said the same thing you have said (paraphrased): "Everything out there that is not mainstream is a scam. Don't be a fool; follow what the doctors say." Shadyguy, one of the reasons I AM ALIVE TODAY is because soon after I was diagnosed, I met a nurse who had worked in oncology for 25 years. She looked me straight in the eyes, and said, "Elliot, if you don't take control of your OWN treatment, the doctors will turn you into a PIECE of MEAT." Do you have any experience at all working in any field of cancer treatment, ShadyGuy? I understand you may have legitimate concerns about people having "false hope," and about "getting scammed," and so forth. But you are far and away overstepping the line when you make statements such as (paraphrased): " have definitive proof that CBD oil does not work." And what proof are you talking about? Your "proof" Is that it did not work for you. (!?!) ShadyGuy, I did many, many things to become cancer-free after the chemotherapy stopped working. There are people who would accept the doctor's verdict that nothing more could be done, and who would go home, "get their affairs together," and passively wait to die. But then there are people who want to remain alive, if at all possible, and so they begin to look elsewhere for a cure. There are even some people who decide to pass the mainstream route entirely, and some of them recover. None of us on this board is an absolute authority when it comes to cancer treatment. We each must do whatever we think feels right with regard to treatment. CBD oil is not totally useless, as evidenced by studies found at pubmed.gov -- "Finally, we present data from both open-label expanded access programs (EAPs) and randomized placebo-controlled trials (RCTs) of a highly purified oral preparation of CBD, which was recently approved by the FDA in the treatment of epilepsy. " Go to pubmed.gov and look up CBD oil for yourself. In the meantime, I do not think it serves us well to have members policing and nannying this board.

Rynn, I am VERY GLAD you found something that works for the constant muscle pain. However, to say you can confirm that CBD oil is useless is wrong, and I can confirm that because the FDA has approved its use for treating epilepsy. Go to pubmed.gov and see for yourself. Thanks.

I am done here. Everywhere you go on cancer boards, there are people such as yourself and "ShadyGuy: who think it is your responsibility and privilege to shoot down anything you think will be :"bad for people.."

No need to beat a dead horse but no you are wrong. I formed my opinion because CBD oil is a scam. it is so inconsistent that it would be impossible to do a scientific study. It varies tremendously between crops, weather, manufacturer, variety and climate. I remember when Steve McQueen was going to be saved from cancer by apricot pits. There was a huge scandal in the press about drug companies and the drug companies suppressing it so he went to Mexico to get it. We all know how that worked out. IMHO this is the same thing. Still I believe very strongly in freedom of choice and say go for it as it is probably harmless to anything but your bank account.. There may be some benefit from the placebo effect. Good luck. Wanna buy a Kangen water machine? (LOL !!!) Just joking. Good luck! Please don’t use CBD as a replacement for real drugs.
