DWQA QuestionsCategory: Healing ModalitiesWould cannabidiol taken for anticancer benefits help or possibly hurt my client’s heart, as she also has coronary artery disease?

Cannabidiol does act as a tonic for the heart in a number of respects and provides a kind of energetic strengthening that would make the muscle fibers more energy efficient. And if you think about that, it is a fundamental benefit when there is any kind of weakening, whether due to electrical disturbances, lowered oxygen delivery, or metabolic insufficiency in the production of energy by the muscle fibers themselves. So this would be a tangible physical gain to help her heart remain more robust, to go the distance. This would be safe for her to take and beneficial for the reasons we described.
