Yep it’s true…there are chemicals in marijuana, cannabinoids, that, according to new research, can put the brakes on colon cancer.
Raymond DuBois and his colleagues at the University of Texas have discovered that a key receptor (CB1) for cannabinoids is turned off in most types of human colon cancer. Without this receptor, a protein called Survivin, which stops cells from dying, increases unchecked and causes tumour growth.
It’s key that we continue research using marijuana as a medicine. Make sure to vote in favor of medical marijuana November 4th.
