Cannabis for people with cancer: What consumption method is best?

Perhaps vaporizing? It is supposed to be far smoother and may help avoid unpleasant nausea or other sensations that I understand can be heightened during chemo. It is relatively expensive (see: volcano) but probably the most gentle and sophisticated intake method. I understand there are little vaporizing pens that come in pleasant designs and are discreet.

Vapourising BHO with an atomiser. Otherwise, perhaps you could get her some CBD oil; it won't get her high but it has a lot of health benefits when taken in the right doses.

i'd say edibles as i think that's the way to get the full therapeutic benefits of the cannabis oil. if they can't eat then maybe a smoothie?

CBD oils. One generally swallows them in an eye dropper with ml numbers on side

I have a Flowermate Pro V.5.0, a little handheld dry herb vape and that is more than enough. Got it for about $100. If you get a vaporizer, get one with temp control as certain cannabinoids are vaporized at varying temperatures.

Not sure how concentrated it was but when I ate a brownie once that shit fucked me up.

I had a zucchini weed bread once that tasted pretty good.

Update: Thanks for everyone's input. I've talked to her and she explained she's in a different stage in the treatment where she doesn't experience a lot of pain but she is constantly tired and lacking in energy, so right now she doesn't want anything that could be a downer.

You can look into sativa strains of weed, if they are available to you, as those are energizing instead of relaxing. They also contain more CBD than THC. However, I think it's easier to take too much of sativa weed, so you would need to be careful about how much your mother takes.

I suggest you do some of your own research into the difference between sativa and indica strains of weed and what types would be useful for someone who suffers from cancer.

She might consider a strong sativa strain which won't have the undesired lethargy.

What's really popular nowadays are CBD gummies. From my point of view, they're very strong, especially for a beginner. But if she'd take only half, she should be alright. My first experience with them wasn't as pleasant, so I stuck with smoking, but I know people who were having a great time eating gummies. Also, I never smoke it with tobacco as it goes for smoking. It's scratching my lungs, and I wouldn't say I like it. 100% weed is the way I enjoy it the best If you decide to buy the gummies, you can take a look at this site and read more about them. They're pretty cool, but not for everyone, though!

I think different ways will work.

However, if the doctor allows, then I think smoking cannabis is one of the best ways. After all, this is how smoke gets the most substances into our body. I basically smoke cannabis myself. I use a diffuser, and I like it better because it's my first bong I'm happy with. I chose based on this article here . In short, air escapes through the diffuser in the form of bubbles, so there is diffusion, the result is smoke filtration. The shower funnel has many designs, from 4-slot to several tiers with a 50-slot funnel. This type of perk is usually combined with other percolators to provide excellent diffusion.
