Marijuana and Cancer Relationship – Marijuana Found to Destroy Cancer Cells
Thanks to the available findings of a 2006 study showing that cannabis actually reduces the number of cancer cells, medical marijuana users can now feel even better about the widely abolished pain relief ingredient found in the plant. The relationship between marijuana and cancer has always been up for debate, but with the use of a specially crafted oil made from the buds of the Cannabis Sativa plant, scientists confirmed that the plant’s primary psychoactive chemical tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) destroys any and all malignant cancer cell growths in several patients. Details on the marijuana and cancer prevention connection aren’t exactly known, but further, more extensive testing will reveal exactly what may be causing this seemingly miracle cure.
Shedding Some Light on the Marijuana and Cancer Relationship
Back in 2006, the study was developed by a team of medical researchers at the Virginia Commonwealth University’s Pharmacology and Toxicology department on leukemia patients. The researchers essentially outlined that if taken daily for an extended period of time, cannabis oil actually reverses the growth of cancer and possibly leads to remission in the patient – with zero added side effects. Typically when a leukemia patient enters a hospital for admission and treatment, they are given a very extensive chemotherapy treatment, usually paired with a radiological treatment. Instead of considering any possible treatment involving marijuana and cancer, doctors use these not only ineffective, but also dangerous treatments. Cannabis, on the other hand, as shown in the study, has virtually no side effects. It is  especially safe and effective when administered in a clean, medically sound environment and in the form of oil.
Other studies have been made over the past decades much like this one: Manuel Guzman located in Madrid, Spain discovered that cannabinoids substantially inhibit the growth of tumors in a variety of lab animals. In the study he also found that not one of these tested animals endured any kind of side effects seen in many similar chemotherapy treatments. It is becoming increasingly clear that you can sidestep any of the misery associated with traditional cancer treatments and embrace the potent, effective healing powers of THC – not to forget about the positive attributes surrounding cannabis’ other primary cannabinoid, cannabidiol (CBD).
If the results don’t appeal to you, then maybe the 2,500 total studied patients throughout these 37 controlled studies will blow the lid on the myth that cannabis is and can only be used as a “dangerous” drug. None of the patients reported any kind of adverse side effects from the use of THC and based medication – further adding to the benefits of medical marijuana and strengthening the positive connection between marijuana and cancer.
The real irony in the situation here? The combined governments of the world are the primary authority behind more than 30 studies like these completed throughout the years – and kept them secret from the general public. It wouldn’t be very conducive for our government if word got out that a schedule 1 narcotic could actually help people.

Marijuana definitely has it's downsides, as a former smoker/pot brownie eater (myself) can testify. It reduced my motivation to work and produce beneficial goods and services, and skewed my ambitions toward the hedonistic. I quit 32 years ago and am glad I did.
On the other hand, Cannabis definitely has it's upsides too. The studies and information available on it's medical and other attributes are too great to ignore. As with alcohol, it deserves to be legalized but with age, activity, and other restrictions. The big problem with it's legalization is that corrupt government, corporations, and financial institutions will be involved. This blend makes for a devil's brew. We all know pot will become GMO and soaked in pesticides, herbicides, and other poisons; and produced on huge megafarms serviced by abused illegal aliens.
So, before legalization, a lot of strategic planning needs to be flooding the internet, so the methodology of legalization doesn't lead to a loss of cannabis' attributes thru the sociopath's acquisition of it's production, processing, and distribution.
I used to think like John Eagle above, until I got chronic pain. Yeah I know a lot of overweight people with broken back bones L3, L4, L5, they think something like the neck can't hurt just as bad. At least with their back they can actually get bone repaired or replaced.. Now try replacing your NECK. Oh that's right, you can't. You know what, I was actually better than John above, I didn't use ANY drugs. Not even aspirin. Now I stick tablespoon chunks of butter into my meals. It doesn't make the pain go away 100%, but it makes it where I can at least live. While I also smoke, it doesn't stay put killing pain like eating does.
With the chronic pain I have today, the opposite of John's story is true, I work better and I can pay attention as opposed to pain fogging everything up and taking my attention, creativity and passion.
I live in an area where there is no tolerance for cannabis, and so making canna butter isn't an option for me. Punk ass political sold out foreign hacks who want my vote ought to keep that in mind, as I cringe every time I see another raid, or zoning law abuse.
Most the city council who abuse local zoning law would be in prison if the Logan Act was upheld. That's another they ought keep in their treasonous sold out mind.
Oh and the whole 2nd amendment vs cannabis unconstitutional madness. There's going to be angry dragons here!
Oh one other observation.
Opium based drugs and alcohol
vs
Cannabis and alcohol
With the opium based drugs, my pain would go away 2-4 hours at a time, with really rough edges. Adding too much alcohol, I nearly died by stopping breathing.
I also hear the Tylenol or whatever it's called in the opium makes my liver die. Interesting I did have pain down there when taking hydrocoding for more than a month, but never thought much about it. It's tricky though cause I got the hydrocodine from a Dentist as my teeth said, time for broken disintegrated wisdom teeth to go.. I basically took advantage @ $12,000 dental bill and stocked up on opium based drugs since I don't have a regular mainstream doctor. But that didn't even last.
With the Cannabis based drugs, my pain can be decreased to where I am at a functional level about 8-24 hours at a time. Adding too much alcohol, has no effect on my breathing.
I'm going on two years now. And this (for me) has not changed. Canna butter is a GODSEND to me. IT put opium based drugs in it's place, as I won't every abuse my dentist to kill my pain as long as the scumbag officials don't kill off my source of butter.
You know it would be quite funny to me to watch my officials have their Kaiser, Sutter, and other hospitals raided and their doctors jailed, and their pharmicists locked up, and their patients kicked out, put on lists to not have a constitution.
These scumbag officials would be wise to remember this vision. There are dragons here.
Don't just smoke it if you have cancer, juice the RAW buds and you get no psychoactive effects and it's 600 times stronger medicinally. Sure the psychoactive part is nice but don't go with the fun over the medical benefits.
Wow, I never thought of juicing a wet bud. That's a great idea! I don't mind the THC part, if it's high CBD and THC from testing then I know I am good to go.
I believe there is a cumulative effect of all the chemicals together. But for sure I can say CBD for me kills pain, while high THC like a sativa makes me in a better mood.
People who don't use cannabis don't understand all the stuff under the radar. There's people who are surrounded by no tolerance for cannabis, that all by itself is a psych job on the mind. There's mixtures of that extreme down to words which hit the mind like slavery. Most people are so busy, they can't properly deal with all this onslaught. Every time a co-op get's nuked, it's more confusion, less understanding. How many banksters have been nuked in comparison?
Then there's the tools of the trade. Pipes, cleaning, maintenance, etc. It takes time to do it proper and not waste things, or pollute, or contaminate the source of the healing. A bag of weed sitting next to a perfume bottle in some chicks stuff isn't the same as a top shelf bud sitting in an airtight jar for two weeks. If people don't have time, or are under psych attack or physical threat, cleaning things becomes a paranoia within itself and weakens the body for sure, I don't care about the cure at that point. All weed isn't created equal. All people are different.
That's why I worry about things like Marinol.
filtered chemicals.
who knows why all these chemicals work together, and do we really want the likes of monsanto p3wn .gov deciding which are allowed or dropped.
I can take a hit off a flower or smoke 20 home grown joints ( A hypothetical "Pack" of Cannabis Cigarettes ), which cures cancer better? See my answer would be to try to get more homegrown to make into butter and more flower to use in a pinch for pain, saving the black resin for skin cures, or to just smoke. Yet, I am just one human trying to learn the truth in a world of viciousness and exploitation.
The Co-Op makes that safe.
The RAID makes it a mental scar.
There is no EVERYTHING is correct for EVERYONE argument which does not end in disaster. Because what's right for you isn't what's right for me.
Legalize marijuana = a whole lot less people to feed and house in prisons = increase in jobs to manufacture it = stimulates the economy…. seems like a win-win to me!
These comments are exactly what I expect from lazy bastard, unmotivated, excuse making Pot Heads. How many of you actually have a job? An education? Do you engage in sports or do you just opt to smoke a doobie and veg? Sounds pretty productive to me. Weed is the worst drug of them all because it makes all of you lazy bastards your main priority in life and you find all these bullship stories to justify that it's good for you. What a bunch of crap! Snap out of it you people! I guarantee if you check the source of this bogus article the person will be a pothead loser just like you. I know you're not going to listen to anything because you just want to hide behind your weed so you don't have to deal with anything. All I can say is…..coward!
I was in the navy, a firefighter/emt, volunteer for the redcross, active in my church, and go to hdsa meetings…..oh I also play rugby, and getting ready for a 5k obstacle course. when I am not in school I am running my MMJ business. I have Huntington’s Chorea
I smoke daily. Have 3 degrees, have served in the army (where I did not smoke at all), have a full time job (which I am rather successful at), a beautiful girlfriend and I am very happy I have replaced alcohol with weed (as my parents were both alcoholics, and my mom died as a result).
You, on the other hand, stereotype and assume, which is the epitome of stupidity. You judge, disregard science and proof, experiences and opinions, all in the name of what? Your own stubborn opinions?
You sir, is the one who is hiding.
I Strongly disagree with you, Marijuana has always been misunderstood and abused Such as: Coca leafs, which is another natural plant with beneficial application. Like all things moderation is the key.
Mahigan, The article talks about cannais oil, to be taken NOT smoked. I suggest you keep an open mind. if this is true then it seems to be a far more pleasant alternative to chemo in many ways. Why just condemn out of hand? There are lots of articles suggesting that this may be true. No I do not smoke pot but I do know how much chemotherapy costs and I also know that the side effects can be horrendous.
wow you sound so sheltered. Probably raised by your grandparents. I smoke a large amount of cannabis everyday for multiple medical problems. Its much easier, safer, more effective and i feel a lot more functional then mixing prescription medications. I work 50 hours a week. Hold a B.S and A.A and train mix martial arts days a week with an amateur record of 3-0 and a pro record of 1-1. So to me just about everything you said is null and comes form a standpoint of lack of experience.
The archeological history of cannabis used as medicine by human societies is at least a few thousand years old. The recent Cannabis Prohibition Era from the 1930s until today saw a replacement of the cannabis plant by synthetic pharmaceutical products. Far from being progress, the banning of cannabis as a traditional medicine of the human species and substitution of synthetic pills only shows arrogance and hubris. Future historians will remember the Cannabis Prohibition Era as one entered in scientific ignorance and exited by a collective reawakening of traditional medicinal knowledge where cannabis is restored to its rightful place as “human kind’s best medicine.”
