wow, why is this flower illegal? hundreds of plants that are deadly poisonous like Datura, Dumbain, Castor, Foxglove, Nightshade are legal despite the fact they are deadly poisons, but the flower that cures brain cancer, heals pain, relieves depression and anxiety, cures anorexia, and siezures is ILLEGAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???? What kind of world do we live in people?

Ur suppose to eat hash oil. Its not smoking the THC that the kills cancer. Its the CBD (cannabanoids) in the plant that help kill the cancer. Eat hash oil thats the best way to get the CBD. For more information google "Hash oil cure for cancer"

With reference to the statement made by Dr. Paul Graham Fisher pertaining to patients already treating themselves by rolling a joint where results show small progress; I just wanted to point out that there are many types of marijuana, in which ingredients can be added. Perhaps hybrid versions that include other ingredients delay the effect that THC has on eliminating cancer cells. Has this been included in the research? Is there a particular type of marijuana one should be smoking to treat cancer?

This is very interesting. I am a Registered Medical Technologist by trade, and was invited to read this article in an attempt to be convinced of legalizing marijuana...

I agree further investigation need be done, but am surprised with the existing data and the Spanish researchers' results. -Rmm MT, AMT (Memphis, TN)

interesting it is some times hard to believe that marijuana can be so beneficial and yet remain illegal I hope this study gets more attention

The Spanish study stated that the THC was injected into the brains of mice.. .to target cancer cells...and it KILLED cancer cells without harming healthy cells..How can anyone not be encouraged by this research?...it is simply absurd to imply that the research findings are questionable simply because people who began to smoke joints saw no benefit. What is wrong with this country that we are not jumping on this information..that it has barely been reported on in the media?? Oh, wait..I know..it's about greed...silly me.

The medicine is produced by cooking the flowers down to their essential oils and taking it orally...! SMOKING MARIJUANA WILL NOT CURE YOUR CANCERS YOU NEED TO FLOOD YOUR SYSTEM WITH THE T.H.C. BY TAKING THE CONCENTRATED OILS ''ORALLY'' EVERY DAY....! ---GOOGLE---RICK---SIMPSON---....!

I agree with that other response. It is no coincidence that almost every living creature (other than plants) have THC receptors in their brain. The plant is here to help us. I feel really badly for the peple who would benefit from its use but stay away from it because our government literally makes up lies about how dangerous it is. When study aftyer study shows that none of the governments allocations are true. More specifically for that person who just commented about their father. My prayers go out to you and your family. I do not know you situation, but I suggest trying to find a doctor who advocates such new techniques and I personally believe cannabis may help your father. Good luck again,
