CBD and neurodegenerative diseases23 Jul 2021 21:05
Billy I have been reading up on research on CBD on neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's, Huntingdon's, HIV etc and also on the common dementias ( over 106 dementias discovered so far, many rare ) but with dementia there is presently no cure, only Alzheimer's have a drug " donepezil", which may buy you some quality time but will not stop the deterioration overall. The market for anything that could prevent, treat dementia itself , but also many of the terrible symptoms of dementia such as paranoia, anxiety, sleep problems etc as well , and has no side effects is absolutely a massive market world wide. People with a diagnosis will try anything that may help, as there is no cure.
Have a listen to the Youtube presentation below. If short of time listen 5 min onwards to 16 min to hear the research being done around no THC CBD on all degenerative disorders but especially dementia . The US government took a patent out 20 years ago to cover this and only recently, with the heightened scientific interests in CBD has it been brought out into the open.
The thing is any CBD ( with NO THC) will provide a preventive dose that protects the brain cells against oxidative stress of brain cells ( just like it does with muscular skeleton degeneration from wear and tear in complaints such as arthritis etc), and stops the protein build up on brain cell plaques that cause dementia and other similar conditions.
I am particularity excited and will look into this a great deal more as i meet many people weekly who have degenerative brain diseases and there is nothing that be offered, let alone a drug that potentially provide prevention of damage to cells for those who are the worried well. This is not being prescribed as far as i know for brain disorders on the NHS ( possibly private, yes).
Anyone who can provide a dementia friendly drug in an easily taken form ( many peeps because of anxiety, paranoia, etc refuse medication in traditional form), so a user friendly form would do very well indeed.
