I wasn't able to watch the video as I am at work.. Judging by Souls comment though.. Is this video saying that weed causes Cancer? :/

In oil form it can actually cure Cancer. Smoking anything is not good for you..
I'm assuming that by the title lol. I'm also at work
Hahahaa. Going by his write up, I think it may be saying the opposite of what we think. As there has been a lot of research behind thc curing cancer.. However that is when you ingest it as oil.. not smoking joints an shit. Smoking it can help with pain.. but smoking anything can cause respiratory issues as we all know. Still, I'ma smoke till I croak 😛

Actually its the opposite...the title is just click bait 🙂 .

On a more serious note the video is talking about Cannabis as a treatment for cancer. It really goes into depth on the issue challenging a lot of my own views on the subject. Wanted to see what the folks here have to say about it. So whenever y'all get the chance watch the video and then share your thoughts.

Truthfully, everything gives you cancer. WiFi gives you cancer. All food gives you cancer. Even people who stay 100% healthy all through life could still die from cancer.

So my point is we're all likely to die from cancer anyway, so fuck it. Smoke em while you got em.
Can't help but wonder if we're being slowly poisoned.

I mean half the food in the store exclaims something

ridiculous like: Made with REAL _______.

😐

Because that's the exception now... real ingredients.

Nothing is real. You want the truth? The population is so unbalanced half the food is synthetic. Just fake filler to fool your body in to believing it's nutritious. That or it's got chemicles in it to get you addicted, so while you're killing yourself at least you're giving someone your cash. We end up just a statistic on a chart.

But use that anxiety to you're advantage. Start making wise and healthy choices now. Let that fear of death, sickness, failure, insignificance, and unhealthy nature completely destroy your subconscious. Embrace paranoia. Let it eat at you till you see it in your dreams.

Next thing you know your giving a shit what you put into your body, and walking every day.

I don't know but I just don't like how the general public tries to push weed on people and tries to make it seem so safe and OK. At the end of the day, it's still a drug. A mind altering drug. And it has been proven to kill brain cells in the brain. I also have read studies on weed which claim that if a person who is underage smokes it regularly, someone who's brain hasn't fully developed yet, they could develop all kinds of mental issues. I know for me, personally, I smoked weed every single day from the age of like 14 to 20. I developed really bad social anxiety and really bad paranoia over time from the constant use. I also know a girl who had it way worst then me and ended up becoming very delusional from it. I know that some people's brains already have a "trigger" in them where it's more likely for them to develop these symptoms from mind altering drugs, but do you really want to take the risk? Sometimes weed just triggers something that is already "there," but do you want that something to be triggered? I know if I could turn back time, I would have never touched weed.

Lady Gaga's experience with weed is very similar to mine. And I'm so glad she spoke out about it because there's too many people out there who think weed is all fun and games.

Even Steve Jobs went straight to eat something healthy while fighting of his cancer till death..

Its all mental power. You have to have will and fight it. The fear, the death, the want to just lay down and die, fuck all of it.

I've seen it take people, hell everyone likely has. You have to chose to win. Its going to mentally break you down, then physically take you. All the meds and painkillers wont help you either. I feel you've got to chose mentally that no matter what, this thing isn't enough to kill you. You have to literally fight mentally, and you will win. Your brain is the most powerful organ in your body, and you can make it do whatever you want it to do. Don't let the meds or drugs fully distract you from the truth.

"Studies in mice and rats have shown that cannabinoids may inhibit tumor growth by causing cell death, blocking cell growth, and blocking the development of blood vessels needed by tumors to grow. Laboratory and animal studies have shown that cannabinoids may be able to kill cancer cells while protecting normal cells."

"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."

A friend's stepson was diagnosed with stage 4 brain cancer. He had surgery, then chemo and radiation. He was on 4 different class 2 drugs just to deal with the pain, etc. from the treatments. He lost 50 lbs, couldn't keep food down, and was still in pain despite the drugs. He finally used marijuana and the pain eased off, his appetite returned and he was able to keep the food down. Dr.s originally gave him 18 months and it's been 4 yrs I think.

Oh, and another friend had a big patch of skin cancer on her arm. Drs wanted to do surgery to remove a big portion down into the muscle, plus radiation. She opted for minor surgery for the surface part, and then applied Rick Simpson oil to the area. It blistered up like a big black boil and then finally fall off with new healthy skin beneath, and no more cancer.
