CBD does offer anti-cancer benefits, by CBD blocking the GPR55 pathway, which cancer relies upon to grow and spread.
GPR55 is a receptor found in high levels in several aggressive cancers, including triple-negative breast cancer. This inhibition can reduce malignant growth, cell proliferation, angiogenesis, adhesion, migration, and metastasis.
