Quote by: Praxius  Marijuana Compound May Fight Lung Cancer
This would explain why I never had any lung issues in the 10 years of smoking pot and now, just recently have been having problems with them since I began smoking ciggs.
This would also debunk those other claims by some that Marijuana contains more cancerous ingredients then Tobacco..... which I have never believed, since there was nothing proving this.
All I gotta say is I can't wait until the governments catch up with society and make weed legal. |
Before you get all excited (with glee), consider this from the article:
"The findings are preliminary, however, and other outside experts urged caution.
'It's an interesting laboratory study (but) you have to have enough additional animal studies to make sure the effect is reproducible and to make sure that there are no overt toxic effects,' said Dr. Norman Edelman, chief medical officer of the American Lung Association. 'It's a little more than tantalizing because it's a compound that we know has been in humans and has not caused major problems.'"
If they can show that the active ingredient reduces tumors in humans, then there might be something worth talking about.
