    Insurance companies apparently want you to purchase expensive chemotherapy rather than to use medical cannabis. I personally don’t believe that we should applaud when our government tells the truth, but some of us might want to applaud the following. This is one of the few times that NIDA has told the truth to the American people:

    “The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) issued a revised report for the month of April, stating, ‘recent animal studies have shown that marijuana can kill certain cancer cells and reduce the size of others. Evidence from one animal study suggests that extracts from whole-plant marijuana can shrink one of the most serious types of brain tumors. Research in mice showed that these extracts, when used with radiation, increased the cancer-killing effects of the radiation.’”

    If you know anything about NIDA you are aware that this statement would not have been made unless they were convinced by the evidence to believe that marijuana is a cure not just for side effects of chemotherapy but for cancer itself.
