Does marijuana help prevent cancer?


Question:
I heard that marijuana can help prevent cancer at work yesterday, i was wondering if anyone knew anything about this.

Answers:
Marijuana won't cause lung cancer I think is what you are looking for. There is a recent study that proved it. The scientist doing the study were a little shocked at the result.

There is a theory that that is true because one of the chemicals in marijuana might kill damaged lung cells before they become cancerous. But they really aren't sure.

I wish I had a link to the study. I'm just saying what I remember.

yea u cant get cancer if ur dead yeah and i heard it helps with epilepsy too!


it won't prevent cancer, it just help with the pain if you have cancer


i hope so

Hell no!! it will worsen the possible chances


No it does not. Just helps relief the pain that comes with cancer.


Nope. It's not even as effective anti-emetic for those going through chemo as the new anti-nausea drugs. It shouldn't contain the same carcinogens as tobacco, but, since it's not regulated, you don't know if there are potentially carcinogenic additives.

It won't prevent it, but it does help people deal with the pain associated with having cancer. i got no idea all that i know is that s*h*i*t is really harmful and people who smoke it usually get tormeneted for the rest of their lives just because they did a single mistake


who give you that stupid information


no it doesn't help but it can lead to lung cancer. Smoking is however beneficial for inflammatory bowel disease.

hell beens it does makes u not feel it dam got to love stoners much love stoners if u r Maybe, why dont you smoke an ounce then come back and tell me.i dont know about it killing cancer, but i know it kills brain cells, duh noow what was i saying lol.:D


Can't say that I have heard that one! But I have heard that marijuana is given to cancer patients to smoke. It puts cancer patients in a more open and happier state of mind. Now that's just what I have heard, don't take my word for it!


I'm too tired to really check 4 u, sorry. But as far as i know it's used for medicinal purposes mainly to relax and lessen pain.
I've also heard they use it in addition to other meds for other ailments, to relax the nerves, aid in sleep, and pain.

It reduces the negative effects of cancer. It helps you eat when you have no appetite. it helps you sleep when you cant it. calms your nerves. I m not positive if it actually prevents cancer but I do know that it helps a lot of cancer patients. NO!!
it doesn't and don't even try it


No, just rumor. No studies have confirmed anything like that.

Cigarettes contain a thousand more carcinogens then pot because they were made that way! Phillip Morris used herion's additciveness as a bench mark for their cigarettes, they intentionally used chemicals to ulter human brain to make then more addictive then herion. These chemicals also cause cancer.


Heroin is much better, youll be noddin off and turning blue behind the wheel of your ve-hicle before you know it. not that i've heard of. i have heard that it is a great preventative of glaucoma as it increases blood flow to the cornea.


That is a ridiculous idea. Get that idea out of your head.

Marijuana is however helpful to treat the adverse affects of certain cancer therapies, and I think that may be the sourse of your confusion. It is also helpful with some people with the signs and symptoms of MS. NO.
