Cannabis should be legalized

Mike's arguments are based on effects of people miss- using them. I'm arguing that Cannabis is practical for medical reasoning's. When you Contradicted my 1st pint , by saying "Cannabis still contains chemicals that can cause cancer. This could make existing cancers worse, or treat them with the heightened risk of developing another cancer. Take that as you will." Then tell me why, these patients aren't dying from Cannabis. If Cannabis causes cancer like you say, then these people wouldn't be alive right? But they are. Heres a case of a girl cured from cancer using cannabis. "In a recently-released video, a nine-year-old girl shares her experience with cannabis treatment. She was diagnosed with a rare leukemia at the age of seven which manifested in a huge tumor in her chest. After chemotherapy proved ineffective, her parents decided to try cannabis oil; six days after her first dose, the cancer went into remission and remains so, two years later." http://dailyhealthpost.com... It can cure brain cancer: 1. " A study published in the British Journal of Cancer, conducted by the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at Complutense University in Madrid, this study determined that Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and other cannabinoids inhibit tumour growth. They were responsible for the first clinical study aimed at assessing cannabinoid antitumoral action. Cannabinoid delivery was safe and was achieved with zero psychoactive effects. THC was found to decrease tumour cells in two out of the nine patients." 2. . A study published in The Journal of Pharmacology And Experimental Therapeutics already acknowledged the fact that cannabinoids have been shown to possess antitumor properties. This study examined the effect of cannabidiol (CBD, non psychoactive cannabinoid compound) on human glioma cell lines. The addition of cannabidiol led to a dramatic drop in the viability of glioma cells. Glioma is the word used to describe brain tumour. The study concluded that cannabidiol was able to produce a significant antitumor activity. It can cure Breast Cancer. 1) A study published in the US National Library of Medicine, conducted by the California Pacific Medical Centre determined that cannabidiol (CBD) inhibits human breast cancer cell proliferation and invasion. They also demonstrated that CBD significantly reduces tumour mass 2). A study published in the Journal Molecular Cancer showed that THC reduced tumour growth and tumour numbers. They determined that cannabinoids inhibit cancer cell proliferation, induce cancer cell apoptosis and impair tumour angiogenesis (all good things). This study provides strong evidence for the use of cannabinoid based therapies for the management of breast cancer. Cannabis can help slow and cure down much more types of cancers, such as lung cancer, prostate caner, blood cancer, oral cancer and liver cancer, along with many more.

Here are more reasons as why Cannabis does more good then harm. *It lessens side effects from treating hepatitis C and increases treatment effectiveness. Treatment for hepatitis C infection is harsh " negative side effects include fatigue, nausea, muscle aches, loss of appetite, and depression " and lasts for months. Many people aren't able to finish their treatment course because of the side effects. But, pot to the rescue: A 2006 study in the European Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology found that 86% of patients using marijuana successfully completed their Hep C therapy, while only 29% of non-smokers completed their treatment, possibly because the marijuana helps lessens the treatments side effects. Marijuana also seems to improve the treatment's effectiveness: 54% of hep C patients smoking marijuana got their viral levels low and kept them low, in comparison to only 8% of nonsmokers. It relieves arthritis discomfort.R32; Marijuana alleviates pain, reduces inflammation, and promotes sleep, which may help relieve pain and discomfort for people with rheumatoid arthritis, researchers announced in 2011.R32;Researchers from rheumatology units at several hospitals gave their patients Sativex, a cannabinoid-based pain-relieving medicine. After a two-week period, people on Sativex had a significant reduction in pain and improved sleep quality compared to placebo users. "Cannabis is a great example of how the human mind can contain conditioning to believe something. Growing up, we are told "drugs" are bad, which is very true, however not all substances that have been labelled as "drugs" by the varying authoritative bodies are harmful. It"s possible substances are labelled as a "drug" in order to protect corporate interests. One example is the automobile and energy industry, a car made from hemp is stronger than steel, and can be fuelled from hemp alone. Henry Ford demonstrated this many years ago. Hemp actually has over 50,000 uses!" Sources: http://www.collective-evolution.com... http://www.businessinsider.com... http://dailyhealthpost.com...
