TruthOnPot.com – The evidence is clear: Marijuana has an unique potential to fight cancer. And while patients anxiously wait for human trials to be conducted, researchers out of Spain are already working on better ways to administer the treatment.
The problem with chemicals in marijuana like THC and C-B-D is the fact that they are highly insoluble in water. So far, this has mostly restricted patients to smoking or eating the plant, which makes it difficult to target tumor cells without affecting other parts of the body as well.
However, using tiny particles of polycaprolactone (a biodegradable polymer) to encapsulate THC, researchers say they’ve developed a novel delivery system for THC that can be used to fight cancer. Writing in the Journal of Drug Targeting, the Spanish group explained how the microparticles make THC easier to work with.
