Cannabis extracts may shrink brain tumors and other cancers by blocking the growth of the blood vessels which feed them, suggests a new study.Wouldn't it be nice to get a buzz instead of getting sick from your cancer therapy?
An active component of the street drug has previously been shown to improve brain tumors in rats. But now Manuel Guzmán at Complutense University, Spain, and colleagues have demonstrated how the cannabis extracts block a key chemical needed for tumors to sprout blood vessels - a process called angiogenesis.
I temporarily reopened Middle Earth Journal when Newshoggers shut it's doors but I was invited to Participate at The Moderate Voice so Middle Earth Journal is once again in hiatus.
