Orthodox Treatments are not very effective.
Wasting patient response to standard pharmaceutical treatments and strategies is remarkably poor. Medical Marijuana, on the other hand is rapidly gaining a reputation as being, by far the best treatment available for Cachexia. In fact, some of the most commonly prescribed drugs are, in fact synthetically derived THC. However, most experienced Doctors find that natural MMJ with a balanced Cannabinoid profiles work substantially better than synthetic isolates. Through personal choice, trial and error - patient's agree with researchers and pick organic herb over synthetics, hands down.

MMJ Doctor - How Cannabis helps in Wasting and Cachexia
Margaret Haney, PhD, Associate Professor of Clinical Neuroscience at Columbia University found that the effects of synthetic (THC) and herbal marijuana were comparable. In a clinical setting, patient's appetite improved, gained weight and slept better in comparison with placebo. Intoxication resulted, except in low doses, but effects were rated positively, "good drug effect" in most patients.
"Comedy comes from a place of hurt. Charlie Chaplin was starving and broke in London, and that's where he got his character 'the tramp' from. It's a bad situation that he transformed into comedic one, and millions of dollars at time when $1000 bought a farm."
