Cannabis Kills Cancer Cells

One of the biggest medical benefits of Marijuana is its link to fight cancer. Many studies reveal that cannabinoids particles can slow down or even kill some type of cancer cells. However, many medical practitioners don’t consider it as a safe treatment for controlling or curing cancer. In fact, the U.S government has clearly stated: “At this time, there is not enough evidence to recommend that patients inhale or ingest Cannabis as a treatment for cancer-related symptoms or side effects of cancer therapy”.
