so much bullshit I dont know where to start, but ingesting orally rather than smoking is an option you know?
Do you believe THC can "cure" cancer?

1st...if you think ingesting a gram of RSO a day was for fun think again. i'm pretty sure that the benefit from smoking is psychological.
2nd...cancerous lesion healed and disappeared, making that 90 days worthwhile, and convincing me.
3rd...mental state, and beliefs certainly are cards you'd want to keep in play and convincing others that there is no hope in this modality foments discouragement.
Heredity and Cancer
Cancer is such a common disease that it is no surprise that many families have at least a few members who have had cancer. Sometimes, certain types of cancer seem to run in some families. This can be caused by a number of factors. It can be because family members have certain risk factors in common, such as smoking, which can cause many types of cancer. It can also be due in part to some other factors, like obesity, that tend to run in families and influence cancer risk.
But in some cases the cancer is caused by an abnormal gene that is being passed along from generation to generation. Although this is often referred to as inherited cancer, what is inherited is the abnormal gene that can lead to cancer, not the cancer itself. Only about 5% to 10% of all cancers are inherited – resulting directly from gene defects (called mutations) inherited from a parent. This document focuses on those cancers.

not all cancer is hereditary and most are caused by environmental factors.

The cannabinoid system and immune modulation
Abstract
Studies on the effects of marijuana smoking have evolved into the discovery and description of the endocannabinoid system. To date, this system is composed of two receptors, CB1 and CB2, and endogenous ligands including anandamide, 2-arachidonoyl glycerol, and others. CB1 receptors and ligands are found in the brain as well as immune and other peripheral tissues. Conversely, CB2 receptors and ligands are found primarily in the periphery, especially in immune cells. Cannabinoid receptors are G protein-coupled receptors, and they have been linked to signaling pathways and gene activities in common with this receptor family. In addition, cannabinoids have been shown to modulate a variety of immune cell functions in humans and animals and more recently, have been shown to modulate T helper cell development, chemotaxis, and tumor development. Many of these drug effects occur through cannabinoid receptor signaling mechanisms and the modulation of cytokines and other gene products. It appears the immunocannabinoid system is involved in regulating the brain-immune axis and might be exploited in future therapies for chronic diseases and immune deficiency.

Interesting presentation on medical benefits of cannabis from the 2013 Emerald Cup. Cancer is mentioned several times. Great informative video on the current understanding of what is possible and known from a medical/therapeudic perspective.

i would say Thc by it's self NO.. other cannabinoids in synergy along with a healthy alkaline diet POSSIBLY YES.. there is alot of unknown factors
I vote for yes, cannabis can cure cancer. Seen it with my own eyes on skin cancer.
Here is a biochemist cancer researcher. He cured his own prostrate cancer. Impressive.

You are lucky I'm out of rep - because this post would certainly get a negative...
Your full of opinion and little fact...which just leaves you full of it.
dank.Frank
It cures many illnesses and alleviates the symptoms of many others and is non lethal
I'm not sure one way or the other on THC's ability to cure cancer, however I'm fairly certain that if I were dying from cancer (or anything else) I'd feel a whole lot better passing from this dimension to the next as I'm burning a joint, the ultimate puff, puff, pass.......
EXACTLY...!! When will people realize that poison(Chemo),burning(radiation), and "ectomies"(mutilation) don't do anything for the body but destroy the immune system....SMH.
THIS^^^. Method of ingestion seems a key factor depending on cancer strain being treated. Topicals on skin and external tumors, vape for brain, edibles for other organs. There has been verifiable success using RSO, Charlotte's web, and other high CBD preparations. I have read the CBD to THC ratio is key. 1:1 seems good. But THC by itself alone, no. All cannabinoids used in conjunction, very likely yes. Many other diseases as well.
No doubt....one last buzz before you jump on the quantum roller coaster ride to.....hmmmm, don't know where, but it should be interesting.

So say's the big pharma P.R rep that is pushing the latest radio-active poison to TRY and cure cancer wait, I mean line his pockets with the money of terminally ill people and their famillys !!
bullshit man
Yeah that ^^^^^^
Quarter mill to Mom's oncologist. Not so much as a card when she passed.
Fuck em all
@dropyera****... Us or them? Who u gonna believe when it's u or a true loved-one?
from my perspective, from all i've read and seen, nothing cures cancer except death. so, for me, cannabis is better than all the alternatives offered by allopathic medicine.
frankincense oil is apparently very good against cancer especially ovarian and breast cancer. I have sourced it for a friends wife and my mother

If I had cancer I would use RSO, and become a raw vegan that only ate certified organic produce.
Prevention is as easy as exercising, and eating a plant based diet. Is it full proof? No, but I like the odds.

There is so much anecdotal evidence out there that MMJ works. Here in Colorado where things are somewhat legal, there is talk of using some of the tax money to fund studies at our universities to answer the question. I hope the studies prove what we already know.
Here's how the system works:

sorry about your moms it makes me so so mad i have dealt with a similar situation i am going to a hematologist/oncologist now, he is a dick and that is put nicely.
