A glioblastoma diagnosis is overwhelming, especially when it affects a child. These aggressive brain tumors are difficult to treat, and while chemotherapy and radiation are standard, many families are seeking integrative solutions that support the body without adding toxicity. At Beyond Wellness, we explore options that blend plant-based science, holistic care, and peer-reviewed research. Here’s everything you should know about using cannabinoids like THC, CBG, CBN, and full-spectrum CBD, alongside holistic strategies for pediatric glioblastoma (GBM) management.

The University of South Carolina has a cannabinoid science lab led by Prakash Nagarkatti. Nagarkatti and his team are currently pioneering investigations into the ECS, the gut microbiome, and disease. They may even have discovered a clue for treating one of the most harmful complications of COVID-19 in some patients.
Frontiers in Pharmacology, a journal with a study done in June, 2020 explored this ECS manipulation by administering THC to mice affected with a form of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The results were astounding-Nagarkatti and colleagues demonstrated that the application of THC completely healed the ARDS in the laboratory mice.
