Investigators at the British Columbia Children’s Hospital in Vancouver documented the mitigation of residual tumors in two adolescent subjects who regularly inhaled cannabis. Authors determined that both subjects experienced a “clear regression” of their residual brain tumors over a three-year-period.
“Neither patient received any conventional adjuvant treatment” during this time period, investigators wrote. “The tumors regressed over the same period of time that cannabis was consumed via inhalation, raising the possibility that cannabis played a role in tumor regression.”

This, & lowering blood pressure without compromising kidney function, & a thousand other reasons is why the pharmaceutical companies are dumping so much money & effort into preventing legalization. What I resent most is the people sipping their martinis disparaging cannabis - which is what American Indians called "Life Everlasting".

The Scientists Exploring Truth in Healing (SETH) Group brings together scientists dedicated to pursuing the most hopeful treatments for cancer.
Using the same tests used to judge new chemotherapies, the SETH team discovered that this herbal compound kills human brain tumor cells at a concentration that is nontoxic to normal brain cells. A computerized microscope captured images of the cells every 5 minutes to compile the time-lapse videos. After 20 hours of treatment, Δ9-THC kills all cancer cells but leaves normal brain cells alive. Cell death is evidenced by cells shrinking to inanimate white spheres.

As found on the below US Patent page link.
Cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants
Abstract
Cannabinoids have been found to have antioxidant properties, unrelated to NMDA receptor antagonism. This new found property makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.
The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and HIV dementia.
Nonpsychoactive cannabinoids, such as cannabidoil, are particularly advantageous to use because they avoid toxicity that is encountered with psychoactive cannabinoids at high doses useful in the method of the present invention.
A particular disclosed class of cannabinoids useful as neuroprotective antioxidants is formula (I) wherein the R group is independently selected from the group consisting of H, CH.sub.3, and COCH.sub.3. ##STR1##http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL.../6630507&RS=PN/6630507

Sir, how dare you suggest that law enforcement is profiting from the prohibition of marijuana. To make that claim the cops. DA, Public defenders, city and county treasures, prison guards, half way houses, counselors and anyboby else you could think of would be making a living or partial living from prohibition. This could never happen in america except it is. Everybody is dirty and the money is in the billions, marijuana is a cash cow.

My sister was just prescribed "Marinol" to help with her proggresive MS here in NJ, had to jump through hoops & wait a long time for her insurance to approve.
But it was worth the wait, helps with her appetite just like when smoked but it's much better at helping control muscle spasms. Less confusion too.FYI - the only side effect as far as we can tell (3 weeks now) is COTTON MOUTH

The U.S.'s drug policies simply must change - but it's big money. States that don't toe the anti-drug line risk losing big Federal bucks for their D.A.R.E. and other such programs. The DEA is accustomed to pretty much writing their own budget and the law-enforcement and prison industries are thriving on our tax dollars. The pharmaceutical Industry is quite content to keep taking our money to treat - NOT cure - myriad diseases, and has the government's blessing to do so. Even where MMJ is "legal" growers and patients are targeted by the Feds.
I would really like to hope that this will go somewhere, but I don't believe it can.
Please, please - prove me wrong.
