While I'm not a fan of Natural News, that is , an interesting anecdote.
Now repeat the experiment and replicate the results. Is this effect only going to work with babies, statistically speaking? I know someone who has a brain tumour (benign) and he's chronic. As far as I know, it hasn't shrunk. Method of ingestion is a factor, perhaps?
I just saw this in one of two articles published in the latest CMAJ. It's from a commentary by two MDs on "coming regulations" and how they should be set:
KEY POINTS
There are people who use 400mg of THC per day, never mind cannabis. However, there was an interesting opinion piece later on the vaporizer laws (only one is approved by Health Canada) and some of the ridiculous laws on the Canadian books (criminal code 462.2) which provides for a sentence of up to 6 months for the possession of cannabis-related literature. So the medical journal I'm holding makes me a criminal?

KEY POINTS
- The only clear indications for medical marijuana are neuropathic pain conditions and spasticity from multiple sclerosis
- Before smoked cannabis is prescribed, all patients should have an adequate trial of standard analgesics and synthetic oral or buccal cannabinoids such as nabilone.
- Smoked cannabis is not indicated for common pain conditions such as fibromyalgia and low-back pain and is contraindicated in patients under 25 years of age and those with a current substance abuse disorder.
- Physicians should review strategies for harm reduction with patients who currently smoke marijuana, such as not smoking daily, not mixing with alcohol or sedating drugs and not driving after smoking.
- Dried cannabis should be titrated to a dose that is effective for pain while minimizing intoxication and cognitive impairment. We suggest a maximum daily dose of 400mg of dried cannabis; the prescription should specify that the producer supply a strain with no more than 9% THC.
