Question for you. I've been asking it everywhere

CBD (CB2 type of anti-THC) causes an up to 70% reduction of the presence of two compounds known to cause inflammation of the pancreas. In type 1 diabetic mice.

University of Jerusalem 2006.

Extended life, slowed the onset of the diabetes and in some cases caused it to not take place at all.

THCV (CB2 also) is what is being tested in humans against type 2 by GW.

Seems that anti-THC cannabinoids cause a reduction in inflammation of the pancreas which, in turn, allows a return toward normal function. Some people claim to have been able to get off insulin.

Worked for me.

Does anyone know if any other medicine does this? None that I know of.

THCV is also being looked at for weight loss.

Note I did not get off insulin. I was able to get off metformin. (glucophage)

Please: What pharmaceutical medicine does the same kind of thing? That is reduction of pancreas inflammation.
