An Interesting Fact Courtesy Of A UCLA Professor.
    #11562388 - 12/01/09 11:43 AM (2 years, 5 months ago)

So a professor at UCLA recently released some research and conclusions that were drawn from that research about Marijuana use and a possible link to lung cancer. He used 217 patients and the case study lasted for 30 some years, so douche bag activists like the head of the American DEA couldn't say some shit ass variable was to blame. Anyhow, he found that Marijuana use does NOT have a link to lung cancer, and that tobacco remains the top cause. The reasoning behind this? Apparently, Tetrahydrocannabinol- or THC- kills off dying cells before they can mutate into cancerous nasty outlines of once healthy cells. Ultimately, if you're smoking marijuana before these cells have a chance to multiply, the chances of develloping lung cancer (without smoking nicotine as well..) are incredibly low, especially compared to numbers previously calculated by doctors and the governments own facilities.
To me this is incredibly interesting.
Feedback?

this information has been known for a long time,  in fact thered evidence that the government has known this since the 70s but for obvious reasons didnt release this information.  i think its absurd that there arent more studies being done on this  and its cool to know. i aleays feel healthy with some thc in my system.  i have a theory that it can help with a lot of medical things, including having too much sugar-supposedly weed lowers your sugarlevels or smthng.      marijuana and green tea my choices for cancer prevention
