Health/Medical Title: Marijuana Kills Cancer Cells, Admits US National Cancer Institute States in the US may be one step closer to legalizing the recreational (I think they meant to say "medical") use of marijuana, especially now that the National Cancer Institute (NCI) has updated its website FAQs to include studies proving cannabis as a natural remedy for cancer. As InfoWars reports, NCI updated its page to include various studies revealing how cannabis may inhibit tumor growth by causing cell death, blocking cell growth, and blocking the development of blood vessels needed by tumors to grow while also protecting normal, healthy cells. NCI stated: A laboratory study of cannabidiol (CBD) in estrogen receptor positive and estrogen receptor negative breast cancer cells showed that it caused cancer cell death while having little effect on normal breast cells. Studies in mouse models of metastatic breast cancer showed that cannabinoids may lessen the growth, number, and spread of tumors. The full list provided by the National Cancer Institute follows: Thats not all, in April, the NIDA stated: Evidence from one animal study suggests that extracts from whole-plant marijuana can shrink one of the most serious types of brain tumors. Research in mice showed that these extracts, when used with radiation, increased the cancer-killing effects of the radiation. How can government agencies conclude the above and the FDA still classify marijuana as a drug with no medicinal purposes? Perhaps this video will enlighten you on the reasons why. Despite the numerous, proven benefits of marijuana, the federal government aims to keep it illegal while the FDA approves expensive prescription drugs with more side effects and far less research.

No. A cannabinoid found in marijuana may kill cancer cells. The cannabinoid would have to found, extracted, purified and concentrated sufficiently to have an effect. Given that marijuana has twice the carcinogens as tobacco, you have a much greater chance of getting cancer as preventing it.
I've heard that you're not supposed to smoke the seeds, stems, and baggie. See if that helps.
I heard that, too. So, does your drug dealer guarantee that seeds, stems, and the baggie are not in the marijuana you buy? Pffft! Like you would pick them out if it did.
