Cannabis Kills All Types of Cancer Cells That Science Has Tested so Far

Standard cancer treatment must be adapted to the type and location of tumor, whereas cannabis is an equal opportunity killer. Cannabis kills all types of cancer cells.

Patients report that cannabis puts arthritis into remission, so the Arthritis Society funds the research to find out if it’s true.There’s good news for the people who suffer from arthritis.
