Healing Cancer With Cannabis

No Longer Separated From The Cure

Cannabis Cures Breast Cancer. It is time to start talking about it. It is time to get the big "foundations" to start fighting for it. It is time to fix what is broken in societies where cannabis consumption is illegal. 

The NCIB released:
Clinically, there are still limited therapeutic interventions for aggressive and metastatic breast cancers available. Clearly, effective and nontoxic therapies are urgently required. Id-1, an inhibitor of basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors, has recently been shown to be a key regulator of the metastatic potential of breast and additional cancers. Using a mouse model, we previously determined that metastatic breast cancer cells became significantly less invasive in vitro and less metastatic in vivo when Id-1 was down-regulated by stable transduction with antisense Id-1. It is not possible at this point, however, to use antisense technology to reduce Id-1 expression in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Here, we report that cannabidiol (CBD), a cannabinoid with a low-toxicity profile, could down-regulate Id-1 expression in aggressive human breast cancer cells. The CBD concentrations effective at inhibiting Id-1 expression correlated with those used to inhibit the proliferative and invasive phenotype of breast cancer cells. CBD was able to inhibit Id-1 expression at the mRNA and protein level in a concentration-dependent fashion. These effects seemed to occur as the result of an inhibition of the Id-1 gene at the promoter level. Importantly, CBD did not inhibit invasiveness in cells that ectopically expressed Id-1. In conclusion, CBD represents the first nontoxic exogenous agent that can significantly decrease Id-1 expression in metastatic breast cancer cells leading to the down-regulation of tumor aggressiveness. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18025276

I do not have cancer, I just know many men and women who have fought it. I am tired of watching my universe suffer through inhuman treatments, when the cure can be grown in your own home. Stand up and support the cure for Breast Cancer.

Saving Medical Cannabis In Washington State

       The Washington State Legislature has returned to session, and with it so have we. We are the patients, and the support network that has gathered around the patients to help us get back to the business of living. 
        We deserve the right to seek freedom from seizures, cancer, chronic pain, terminal illness and mental distress. We deserve the right to be proactive in maintaining and building health through the most effective healthy plant grown in the world today. We deserve to have access to medicine that will effectively return to us our quality of life, without the fear of not being able to afford it.

      Healthcare is a human right and not a commercial commodity. So we travel from all over the state, to represent our peers and loved ones who are too ill to travel. We demand that the lawmakers keep the integrity of their words, and not alter the laws on our medicine.  Here are just a few that were able to share their thoughts. 



"I am here today because I am going to try to help the State educate the people about the difference between hemp and cannabis."



"I am not 100% certain of why we would need to roll the rules of medical cannabis, which is already a functioning system in Washington State into an unproven system that is nothing more than a theoretical model at this point. I am not sure how that meets the needs of the patients. "





"Save Medical Cannabis"






"I will not allow government to continue these illegal actions without a challenge being taken." 





"Cannabis is the ultimate populist issue. Nothing but lies have stripped us from this useful fiber, oil, fuel, food, and medicine product. It is time to reject the government lies and return the plant to the people. "
