- The Hirshberg Foundation is excited to have Dr. Jeffrey Chen as a speaker at the 15th Annual Symposium on Pancreatic Cancer on March 2nd, 2019. Dr. Chen is the Executive Director of the UCLA Cannabis Research Initiative, one of the first academic programs in the world dedicated to the study of cannabis. We are excited to have him joining us to discuss Medicinal Cannabis and Cancer with the pancreatic cancer community.
California is currently the largest population in the world with legal adult use of cannabis, yet years of research restrictions have contributed to a lack of scientific knowledge about cannabis, particularly in regards to the therapeutic potential. The UCLA Cannabis Research Initiative (UCLA-CRI) is dedicated to the interdisciplinary study of the wide-ranging health, legal, economic, and social impacts of cannabis. Dr. Chen is passionate about accelerating research into cannabis and its compounds as potentially cost-effective and safe treatments for cancer patients.
I have a lot of post dramatic stress disorder and it really does the trick. God put it on the earth for a reason.
In April 2015 I was diagnosed stage 4 colorectal with Mets to my pelvis liver and lungs, first oncologist gave me 3 maybe 4 years.
September 2018 I started a regime of FECO CBD and THC gummies.
As per my current health, later today I'll go for a motorcycle ride then swimming this evening !
this is phenomenal :)
Doc gave you 3-4 years but due to marijuana you still here 7 years later congrats hope you continue to pull through and beat this!💪
That's truly amazing!
How did you use cannabis as a medicine?
@@LegendOfJunii Of note, this video was made in 2018. She was diagnosed in 2015. You posted 8 months ago, so the math is not accurate. Actually we aren't certain what happened after 3 years. I TRULY pray he/she is still doing great. I am just now researching this subject, in Jan. 2023.
This is the first unbiased and to the point presentation that the internet contains, well done Dr Chen!
My mum takes rso snd cbd oil. Her cancer marker in September 2022 when she got diagnosed where 850. Now in March 2023 they are 120. It really works. She had never has her prescribed medication beacuse RSO can make it toxic. She eats beetroot to clean her liver.
Hey how's she now?
120 is low.. hope thats still the case
Forgot to mention the fact it's only the female that is used, she is a pistillate and if you remove any males before they flower..she will invest in more trichomes, if pollinated will stop slow down THC production because she will invest her energies for seed production.
And there's window at harvest time where trichomes which we check with a microscope and observe the state of those resin glands,
Clear, opaque, amber and dark brown to black, all have differing effect.
Medical drugs are more addictive than cannabis
It has been for a while known that pharma has been suppressing treatments to keep us sick.
So much information missing here..as it's mostly academic...
As user a since 68..grower and breeder since 74.
Sativa = higher THC energetic..not for bedtime.
Indica = higher CBD to THC more sedative..great for bedtime, deep sleep where most healing takes place.
Smoking destroys most of the compound..vaping much less.
Eating by far the best way. Strength depends on strain. Most ppl get hybrids..
Indica max height 8"
Sativa max recorded height 40'
Indica short sticky resinous plant used for making Hashish.
Sativa doesn't produce the copious amounts of trichomes need for Hashish.
Indica has a shorter flowering stage..6-10 weeks
Sativa longer flowering period..10 - 20 weeks,
This is no myth my friend!
I have been passionate user longer than Joe Rogan been alive.
Read many books, taught many to grow because that's the best and cleanest plus not contributing to any criminal organisations...and the large food leaves when eaten can get you high...best with edibles have it some food otherwise you can get overwhelmed.
Get some books there are many out there.
Peace and happy hunting with your endeavours

Want to grow some for personal use any advice?
It does work in Humans , especially for chronic pain and cancer. I was told there was nothing any doctor could do for chronic back problems from a bad car accident and used to be given anti inflamatory ( Catafast) medicine which only stopped the pain temporarily and had huge side effects on the liver , the THC and CBD oil worked for me after 30 years of chronic pain and a depressing quality of life . Definetely helps with inflammation. I took on drop before bedtime the first week and was already feeling fine . I cant remember if i took it for the 2nd week too as it was 11 years ago but you will know when to stop because the pain stops totally . The THC was 10 per cent and the CBD was lower around 6 per cent. The oil was made in a lab and came with a certificate . It was mixed with olive oil , no preservatives , no ethinol was used either , I always keep a bottle at home as it is the best medicine for all illnesses related to inflamation which most of them are. I need to also add that the oil has also other cannabinoids in it . CBN CBDV CBG CBC THCV D8 THC D9 D8THC
Are you willing to share your optimal doses and regimen if you have one?
@@user-et7fv6fz6q I took one drop the first week before bedtime till the pain and inflamation stopped . The THC was 10 per cent the CBD was 6 per cent it worked for me within a week or 2 . I can't remember exactly as it was at least 11 years ago . The oil was made professionally in a lad mixed with olive oil not done with ethanol either . You need to experiment because each person is different regarding tolerance . Taking it before bed time not during the day . I then stopped it as soon as I got better . But always keep some at home for whenever it is needed even if one has problems with sleep such as insomnia. It is the medicine for all illnesses related to inflamation which most of them all are .
@@user-et7fv6fz6q on my comment .
CBD oil helped me quit a 20 year valium/xanax habit. I use CBD oil daily and have no anxiety and sleep much better than when I used pharmaceuticals.
This is helpful to learning about cannibis
I wish the presenter would have spoken about the importance of the “ entourage effect” between THC & CBD. That’s why synthetic will never measure up to the natural plant. He speaks as if there is no other info available from other countries around the world that aren’t bought by Pharma (which the US sadly is). They could learn so much from research already being done. Why duplicate efforts??
For years there has been major research going on in Israel that the USA has helped fund due to the huge blocks to research here. It is beyond ridiculous that cannabis is still a Schedule 1 drug - thanks to our lawmakers being bought & paid for by Pharma. Pharma does NOT want this crucial natural medicine competing with their trillion $$ drug monopoly. It is a crime against humanity. Cannabis KILLS CANCER!! 👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼
i was thinking the same thing
Cannabis does not "kill" cancer in humans.
@@DukeGMOLOL Im happy to say I’ve killed 3 skin cancers with black rso. My family and friends are completely blown away. The last skin cancer took 2 months of daily rso. It worked for me and my friend and family. And I’m sure it’s hard for a lot of people to accept until they see for their own eyes. You need to decarb the cannabis flower. Love and peace from Australia 🇦🇺
@@brendansmyth5053 You have to get a real cancer diagnosis before you can cure cancer.
@@DukeGMOLOL geez why didn’t I think of that ?! 🧐 So are skin cancer specialists that test skin cancer by doing a biopsy good enough? Or do you have some other great idea ?
What a great talk.. thanks Jeffery
So glad you enjoyed, thanks!
Gratefully viewed
Excellent speaker and very informative
Much appreciated!
Awesome video and so informative!! thank you
Thank you for a great talk!
Definitely helps tapering in my experience reducing from 70mg total oxycodone to 30 without seeming. It was rough but it surely helped. Would recommend following a plan supervised by a doctor. If I had to do it again I would taper off slowly pain levels permitting. I also found after adjusting to a lower daily dose the constipation subsided entirely and I slowly began losing weight getting closer to my optimal BMI
36:35 "CBD is not psychoactive" is not true. It is psychoactive, however, it's non-intoxicating. THC intoxicates us, CBD just helps calm us down, it may help with sleep, it's an anti-inflammatory, so it's helpful in aiding pain of sorts...CBD also counteracts the intoxicating effects of THC, so if you accidentally eat 100mg of THC and get too high, or are about to be too high, take 100mg of CBD, the 1:1 will level your endocannabinoid system out and you will not be high or intoxicated. You'll just feel really good, low to no physical pain, low anxiety, etc... Next, THC is NOT addictive. It actually helps people who suffer from addiction and can and should be used in treating addicts. There is such a wide variety of beneficial uses to the cannabis plant, and addiction is not a word that fits. Anyway, that's what I got.
Thanks for this additional information. There is still a great deal more research needed to fully understand medicinal cannabis.
The best medicinal effect comes from whole cannabis that contains both CBD and THC. The latter has greater medical qualities than does CBD. I have used CBD oil (high percentage), it is not intoxicating at all.
@@Vierotchka absolutely! Not everyone knows that. Having a balanced ECS is key, and there's plenty more cannabinoids to help with that.
yeah , CBD passes the blood brain barrier therefore is psychoactive ... because CBD is antagonist @cb2 receptors it is recognized in the imune system ( mitochondria) ... as THC is agonist @ cb1 it is recognized in the central nervous system ( ions) . and this - THC-a and CBD-a are the acidic forms that are on the living plant ... we have found 150 phytocannabinoids on the plant so far ... they are carbon active ... there is a counterpart to each carbon active phytocannabinoids and that is the carbon neutral ( decarboxylated ) form
@@mcozy333 i like you. Finally, someone who speaks my language.
Cannabinoids seem to work centrally on the thyroid axes. That is how it might be reducing alpha adrenergic inflammation, which is responsible for most neoplasms, fatty liver, chronic pancreatitis, Crohn's, rheumatoid arthritis, etc
Very clear and to the point! 🙏🏻
Glad it was helpful!
@@HirshbergFoundation I wonder how much research has been done now five years later. Going through RUclips to find all articles on use of THC/CBD.
so you are saying there are no studies about cbd on its own? and secondly, have you tried it? it absolutely has a positive effect on inflammation among other uses..
other than that thank you for sharing
Thanks for your question. As Dr. Chen mentioned, more studies are needed to fully understand the effects of cannabis and CBD in regards to cancer treatment. We are happy to hear that you have benefited from using CBD to treat inflammation! You may want to visit the UCLA Cannabis Research Initiative website for the latest information and research in this exciting field. www.uclahealth.org/cannabis/about-us
You have to have the THC,it is what helps in the healing process. Have you watched Rick Simpson's Run From The Cure? Everyone in this country should watch it. ruclips.net/video/OrVKCY8_Noo/видео.html
@@HirshbergFoundation It is the THC that acts on cancer tumours. CBD doesn't.
@@Vierotchka You need to see Cannmed's videos. They show that THC and CBD alone do kill cancer cells., but there are 100's of other compounds in cannabis that also kill cancer while some of the compounds don't kill unless paired with others. Look into it. It is important to know.
That is a good explanation. Medical Cannabis can help treat nausea and vomiting from cancer chemotherapy.
Awesome hope all is well
Thanks for the visit
It's not as adtive as you think, i think you may find its in people with addtive personalities. Can't claim it helps people with adiction then says its addictive. I have cleared my cancer using large quantities of oil, helped me through treatmeant and just stopped or reduced my doses to completely nothing without any side effects or withdrawls. Additive personalities are more of the concern here which is due to persons behaviour rather than thc.
All in all very educational, informal and great talk.
Pot is the only drug that us not addictive. It kills cancer cells but the big drug company don't want use to use it cause it's not profitable. It's cause people could just grow it us why. But if they realized that Americans are so lazy now that we would rather buy it instead of planting it. Heck nobody plants a garden anymore. So if people won't plant a garden for free food they would take the time to plant weed eithier. So the pharmaceutical company haven't realized they could make money off it now.
Fantastic presentation.
So sad that this isn't looked into as much as the chemicals are.
What about THC and immunotherapy ? I'm hearing mixed that it stops immunotherapy from working. Is this true?
Is the best you can taje
I been fighting cancer twice life with 2 nefrostomis for 15 years it was supposed for the rest of my life
I use for 10 years now capsules combi cbd thc
My cancer is gone for 15 years now
Had a bladderopration it was destroyed by radiation and now fix
I have a bit off my life back because off these capsules
I dont need painkillers only nifidipine for blood pressure
My kidneys only work for 45 procent but stable for years now
During my cancer treatment I had fentanyl it was a battle to stop but my capsules helpt me tru it
I give it to lots off people these capsules they benefit all off them with pain sleep eat
It is not only for cancer but many other patients have benefits to
Great job but completely wrong about strain difference and hybrids effects. Indica at night, sativa if at all during day, hybrid by effectiveness.
The sativa/indica thing is NOT a myth. It is 100% true. Guess this guy has never actually had marijuana himself.
Hi. Where is the safest place to buy so oil? Want to take it fo4 stage four colorectal cancer. Thanks!
@@NoName-ey3td ,did you said it's simple.But where do I find cannabis in the UK?If the police finds out that am after it,they will arrest me straight away 🤔
How would police find out? I would think your health is more important, the chance they would find out is v small and I think the cops are more interested in swooping on the big drug rings, not a small user buying it for medicine. There are some discrete people selling weed. Ask a Uni student maybe? I don't mean to be flippant, love and good luck with your recovery.
Just ask Rick Simpson.

Not All CBD Is Created Equal
Indeed. We encourage everyone to speak with their doctor before beginning any treatment with CBD
21:07 "Takeaways"
Wow I was expecting an older man
Marijuana or Hemp ??
Look up Otto Warburg, M.D., PhD (cell biology).
I am a family physician that has studied basic science: physiology, biochemistry and cell/molecular biology. Since marijuana shuts down 1/3 of your brain, any benefit is not worth it.
When you buy CBD you only want two ingredients CBD and a carrier oil
legalize weed world wide
He does not know anything. Making the required studies are never made because they would destroy their returns from their dangerous painkillers.Better let only the paitients report their results.
Didn't find anything extraordinary .. well it's 3 yrs old ...
When u become addicted to smoking weed it depresses you 100%
@@wandahibshman9851 Now that is funnnayyyyy 😆
are you stupid or just getting there
Bring it on!
Rather that than the akathisia that pharm drugs cause!!!!
waste of time
Agree, all I wanted to know is, does it cure cancer.
@@bartram33 only one way to find out…! There are no lasting/damaging health effects, appears to be only beneficial, and it’s anti-tumor… hope you make the right decision for yourself 🙌
