Dr. Donald Tashkin Marijuana Lung Cancer Study Pt 1 of 2


Pulmonary specialist and Federal Government researcher from UCLA Geffen School of Medicine finds that marijuana does not cause lung cancer in his study on the effects of cannabis and the lungs. Results of this study are discussed for the first time. If you agree that cannabis should be legal, write a letter to your congressperson and tell them to legalize it! It is time for truth to prevail and prohibition to stop.

  1. That sounds like sick building syndrome. I bet the walls of your house are insulated with asbestos.

    Medical Marijuana (most cases)
    Best … Ingest (Rick Simpson’s Hemp Oil)
    Better … Vaporize (Vapor not smoke)
    Good … Topical
    Worst … Joint (about 90% of the beneficial Cannabinoids are burnt)

  4. @postal0service
    That’s fucking awesome

  5. Then you must have been smoking like ½ ounce, each day for the last five years. Either that, or the weed was poisoned.

    Google “pubmed”, enter “Cannabinoids Cancer” … 568 articles!

  8. Indica’s have less CBD but Sativa’s have Higher CBD. This is why there are different effects from them. CBD is Cannabidiol. The moment you seperate them it changes the medical benefits and effects overall.
    This means it requires the herbs to be tested by a lab and labeled according to CBD content. It DOES NOT mean we should have man made pills that do not contain the other 400 chemicals. There are also compounds in cannabis other than cannabinoids that are beneficial.

  9. i take a hash pill.its the future man.last for hours and eating doesnt effect the buzz..piece

  10. marijuana doesn’t have to be smoked anyway if you eat it it last alot longer and somtimes feels better.

  11. marijuana has a 4-way action against cancer and it also protects against Alzheimer’s disease

    I got lung Cancer from Smoking Marijuana most my life and i don’t eat much Vegetables

  13. The best,and safest,way to smoke marijuana is with a vaporizer! Very easy on the lungs,but will bake your head!!!!

  14. So which is the safe bit of weed smoking ive heard about then?Bronchitis,coughing,sputum,no thanks.

  15. i think this would sort itself out. if one company sells nicotine-laced mj and another sells the purest, finest, dankest stuff youve ever seen, which one are you gonna buy?

  16. look, smoke can cause cancer. Smoke = carcinogen = cancer. Anyone who knows the basics of cancer knows this.

  17. I would suspect that the expectorant effect of cannabis has something to do with it.

  18. So what part of pot smoking that ‘cures’ cancer negates inhaling carcinogens?

  19. you are basically smoking a fancy too big for its job pipe if you dont use water in that “water” pipe.

    as long as if companies are formed on the legalization of marijuana, they don’t add nicotine.

    Proven in laboratory dishes but not willing to test on humans or animals!
    A purified and concentrated form is RICK SIMPSON’S CANCER CURE HEMP OIL!!

    THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY

    “More recently, scientists reported that cannabidiol, one of the chemicals found in marijuana, slows growth of breast cancer cells growing in laboratory dishes. However, this substance has not been tested in humans or even in animals that have cancer yet. Cannabidiol levels in marijuana are low, so any benefit from this compound would require use of a purified and concentrated form.”

  23. Ban tobacco, legalize marijuana.
    From all marijuana benefiter all around the world, this thing cures……

  24. huh, this is extremely interesting…its not often that there is so much contradiction in such thorough scientific studies. but, the basic fact stays the same: marijuana is cool, tobacco is not.

  25. Do you have any idea how a bong works? It forces the smoke into bubbles, it doesn’t dissolve it then eject it in the tube. It’s only meant to COOL the smoke, which is why some people think they are better.

    Eating it and vaporizers are two ways around this.
