Being ten years cancer free, I am especially interested
in preventing the return of my cancer. I smoke pot to
prevent such a recurrence, among other reasons.
Here is some of the research on which I based that decision,
along with a layman’s translation, by me, for each:
Galanti et al. 2007. Delta9-Tetrahydrocannabinol inhibits cell cycle progression by downregulation of E2F1 in human glioblastoma multiforme cells. Acta Oncologica 12: 1-9.
translation: THC in pot smoke slows brain cancer growth.
Preet et al. 2008. Delta9-Tetrahydrocannabinol inhibits epithelial growth factor-induced lung cancer cell migration in vitro as well as its growth and metastasis in vivo. Oncogene 10: 339-346.
translation: THC in pot slows lung cancer cell growthz and metastasis.
Ramer and Hinz. 2008. Inhibition of cancer cell invasion by cannabinoids via increased cell expression of tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases-1. Journal of the National Cancer Institute 100: 59-69.
translation: Pot slows metastasis of cancer cells.
McAllister et al. 2007. Cannabidiol as a novel inhibitor of Id-1 gene expression in aggressive breast cancer cells. Molecular Cancer Therapeutics 6: 2921-2927.
translation: Pot prevents the cancer gene in breast cancer cells from working.
New preclinical research shows that cannabinoid cell surface receptor CB1 plays a tumor-suppressing role in human colorectal cancer, scientists report in the Aug. 1 edition of the journal Cancer Research.
translation: Pot shrinks colon tumors.
Ok, so I’ll admit that those who smoke pot are still
susceptible to cancer, and toking a joint alone will
not shrink tumors or kill cancer cells, but the proof is
overwhelming. These are just a few studies in this field.
Cannabis can kill cancer, but smoking dope alone
is NOT a cure. The science is far from where it needs
to be, but someday……?



And to think ll these years I have fighting not to smoke pot, when all this time I could have been preventing cancer! who would of thunk it!

Hello, i feel that i noticed you visited my site thus i came to return the want?.I am trying to in finding things to enhance my site!I assume its adequate to use some of your concepts!!
Please do. Notify me when you do so I can check it out, and please give me a linkback or two.
