  • "Dr. Worcester On The Role Of Big Pharma In Cannabis Research & Education For Cancer Pain Management"

    Summary/Abstract

    Dr. Brooke Worster is the Chief Medical Advisor at Ethios and a cancer pain specialist. She is also a cannabis researcher at Thomas Jefferson University in Pennsylvania. On the show, she discussed her background in pain management and how she got interested in cannabis research. She explained how cannabis is often recommended to her patients, either by their family members, caregivers, or friends. However, the medical community doesn't pay much attention to the positive side of cannabis. She is working to change that and to provide more resources to people interested in cannabis.

    Dr. Jeffrey Gendelman discussed his experience with medical cannabis, which began when he felt like he had to respond to patients' questions with I don't know as he had not done much research on the subject. However, when the Pennsylvania legislature passed legislation allowing academic medical centers to partner with vertically integrated growth, production, and dispensing companies, he decided to take the initiative and learn more.

    Dr. Gendelman noted the disconnect between patients and providers when it comes to cannabis; patients often feel uncomfortable bringing it up and providers rarely initiate the dialogue due to a lack of knowledge. He believes it's important for doctors, particularly oncologists, to learn how to talk to their patients about cannabis in order to bridge this gap.

    The conversation is about how healthcare professionals are not engaging with cannabis as a treatment option. The speaker notes that only a quarter of 10,000 cancer patients feel comfortable talking to their physicians about cannabis. The stigma and hysteria surrounding cannabis have made some patient groups reluctant to even bring up the topic with their physician. The speaker wonders why the medical community has not embraced the potential of cannabis as a therapy, given its long history of use in medicine. He argues that access to and use of cannabis is increasing, and medical professionals must pay attention to it. He also notes that research into the potential of cannabis as a therapy has been limited due to restrictions on its use. The speaker suggests healthcare professionals must become more educated about cannabis and its potential therapeutic uses.

    There is not enough education and training available for healthcare professionals to bridge the gap in knowledge around cannabis. This lack of accessible education means that professionals have to do their own research and digging to gain knowledge. It is important to talk to patients and hear their experiences, although it is not the same as a randomized clinical trial. To gain more knowledge and bridge the gap, healthcare professionals should make some noise about the educational gap and try to get more educational outreach and efforts happening.

    Interview with Dr. Lola Wasa: Exploring the Benefits of Cannabis Medicine

    Highlights

    Finally, Dr. Worcester, I have another of your quote. You said, the patient knows this stuff. They are reading it online and hearing from friends, but they are also getting a lot of disinformation and bad advice from this. We as a medical community need to step up, embrace these resources that patients are using, whether they are in a legal state, use or not, and provide some guidance. What else can we do in the community, especially in the healthcare space, to make sure patients are getting evidence-based data?

    I think it would go a long way if we even kind of got our act together enough to have a standardized labeling system for cannabis for products. Right. Because the way that they're labeled is all different from state to state and how it's kind of shown concentration versus percentage of various cannabinoids versus ratios. That's confusing to patients. So I think one thing that I would say could be changed that would kind of a little bit come from the dispensary and the legislative side that wouldn't require a ton of work, but would just be to say kind of like we do for other nutraceuticals or over the counter products is like you have to have certain labeling standards. The way that you say what's in it is the same.

    We can make you make sense of what doesn't make sense folks. Dr. Worcester, Dr. O can help you make sense, of what doesn't make sense. Now let's go back to our patient. Dr. Worcester, in one of your call recently, you said many patients are simply guessing and doing their best at both adult use and even for medical purposes. They go to the Dispensaries or go online and just try to figure it out. He said the evidence is strong that cannabis is effective for cancer pain. It's also very likely effective for nausea, cancer-related nausea, and vomiting, which is what we are part of what we are using dronabinol for.

    And I totally agree with you that what is there to lose? They have more to gain because even right now when we talk about chronic conditions like cancer, it's like all hands on deck. Back in the day we never used to use lidocaine patches to manage cancer pain. Now we are able to dispense the patches for neuropathic pain, and cancer-related neuropathic pain for our patients. So it's all hands on deck. Pain is pain. Pain is not going to be okay. It's just narcissistic pain.

    And I do tell people, you are the expert when it comes to cancer pain management. During my rotation, I did do some cancer rotation. I do tell patients, cancer patients in particular, when you see them going through pain, some of them, you don't even know the level of pain they're going through. Somebody can be looking at you off-screen, and their pain is ten because they've developed a system to cope with pain management in such a way that acute pain might not be the same. I might just cut my finger and start screaming the whole place down whereby somebody sitting by me is going through a critical condition like cancer. What is the part of the big farmer? I know that Big Pharma probably just doesn't even want anything to be approved, considering the level of money that is being generated from that space.

  • Lumenate is a pioneering app that uses sound and light to change brain rhythms in ways similar to psychedelics and highly experienced meditators, and brain imaging researchers at Imperial College London and as well as researchers in Berlin.

    Our guests have talked about what psychedelic experiences and Lumenate appear to have in common. They talked about Increased brain signal complexity, reduced activity in the default mode network, increased functional connectivity between different brain regions, and reductions in peak alpha brainwaves.

    They have ongoing trials underway in London which "aims to uncover neural mechanisms of visual imagery induced by Lumenate, using high-density EEG. The research also aims at comparing psychedelic experiences induced by DMT and Lumenate, by exploring the psychological and biological mechanisms of both altered states of consciousness”.

  • Steven Twohig has been studying an abundance of practices extensively, including mindfulness, business optimization, shadow work and facilitation, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), hypnotherapy, and leadership dynamics. He recently has been researching psychedelic integration, which is defined as a process in which the patient integrates the insights of their experience into their life, and PHRI is a method of supporting that in the clinical consultation room.

    On Steven's website for Mastering Change, he wrote: “miscoding deep in the human mind. This coding is the root cause of all suffering in the world. By doing your shadow work, you are doing the work necessary to change the world. Everything in this reality is a reflection of everything else. If above, so below. So within, so without. You are a reflection of your outside world, just like this world is a reflection of you.” Steven expands on this and much more in today's episode.

  • Blake Pearson has been internationally recognized for his work in cannabis medicine and efforts to legitimize cannabinoid therapy as a safer alternative to opioids and anti-psychotic drugs. He has helped improve your patients’ symptoms with cannabinoid medicine and has been able to reduce the anti-psychotics.

    Dr. Blake recently announced the start of a new research study into the impact of cannabinoid therapy on local residents with dementia. He has partnered with Lambton College and Steeves & Rozema Nursing Homes for a three-year, $360,000 research grant from the National Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).

    We discuss how Dr. Blake feels that this new study is not about healing or halting dementia. It’s about managing the behaviors associated with the disease — such as mood, calling out, agitation, and trouble sleeping.

    Blake wrote on his blog about a new placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial out of Israel published to evaluate the safety and efficacy of broad-spectrum CBD-dominant medical cannabis oil for the reduction of behavioral disturbances amongst patients with dementia. They found a statistically significant reduction in agitation over placebo with non-serious side effects.

  • Thomas Kingsley Brown, Ph.D. started his research on ibogaine treatment in November of 2009 when he conducted interviews with patients at Pangea Biomedics (then in Playas de Tijuana, Mexico) and collected data for the purpose of studying changes in Quality of Life for those patients. Hearing about the transformative experiences of these people convinced him that ibogaine’s therapeutic value merited further study.

    Thomas recently published a comprehensive clinical summary of ibogaine use and treatments for the benefit of researchers and medical practitioners. He said “Ibogaine is the only treatment for opioid use disorder that consistently and significantly alleviates withdrawal symptoms that isn’t itself an opioid, and it does so with an effective level on par with methadone.

    Thomas's Research also shows that ibogaine not only interrupts addiction in the short term but also helps people control their drug addiction in the long term, leading to cessation or substantial reductions in problematic drug use. His co-founder Tom Feegel said their clients report that this process can take months of research, leaving them to depend on claims from unverifiable sources, and can even lead to conflicting conclusions based on partial or incomplete information. First and foremost we discuss if is ibogaine safe, as well as, why ibogaine should not have a bad reputation.

  • Some of the damage caused by the “War on Drugs” of the Nixon Era is the discriminatory incarceration of the Black Indigenous people of color (BIPOC) & the inability to carry out research.
