And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it. I am an evil giraffe, and I shall eat more leaves from this tree than perhaps I should, so that other giraffes may die. |

If freakin' Tommy Chong was able to GET cancer and have it grow to detectable levels ... then, well, wouldn't that actually speak to marijuana's efficacy at treating it? Must not have worked so far ... |

Must not have worked so far ... so far he's been smoking it, there's a big difference in the potency of the plant itself and a oil concentrate. you need alot of cannabis to make the oil. I believe the treatment is 1lb of bud to make enough oil to cure anything they have come across so far. |

Regardless, the doses for cures from the hemp oil are said to be quite high, iirc. Studies indicate that smokers of cannibis only have statistically less chance of getting cancer then even non smokers, that doesnt mean they dont get it... |

Must not have worked so far ... Smoking it and ingesting the oil are two different things. Cannabinoids are much more concentrated in the oil.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 1294151 United States 06/11/2012 11:24 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | TC Believes he got the Cancer while he was in prison.... He stated that he was getting drug tests almost daily while incarcerated, so no Ganja in jail, and believes it may have been the diet that he received while there. I'd have to agree with the Chongster, When you have no choice in the foods you are able to eat, it can sometimes lead to problems. Quoting: zoi_98 God Speed Mr. Chong... We can't lose an icon like that. He may be correct in this assumption. Iodine deficiency is one the causes of Prostate cancer, a sudden change to a poor diet (like in jail) may have lead to this. 99% of Americans are Iodine deficient, which leads to numerous ailments. |

drex User ID: 1459781 United States 06/11/2012 11:51 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Anyone saying he got cancer from smoking is retarded. One, it's not lung cancer - it's PROSTATE cancer. Do you think he's been taking bong rips out of his ass? Second, cannabis CAN cure cancer. Well, a chemical (or group of chemicals) inside cannabis can, and has. Google "cancer.gov cannabis" and you will read what the NATIONAL CANCER INSTITUTE says on the subject - apoptosis, aka cell death, occurs in ONLY CANCER CELLS while leaving the healthy cells alone. Cannabis Science, Inc is a biopharmaceutical company who have created topical ointments that cure the worst types of skin cancer. Google them too. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 16757046 United States 06/11/2012 11:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Cheech & Chong” actor Tommy Chong on Sunday revealed that he had prostate cancer, but he says “cannabis is a cure” instead of the cause. Quoting: dikkie “I was diagnosed with prostate cancer about a month ago, and I’m going to start treating it with cannabis oil or hemp oil or pot oil,” the marijuana activist told CNN’s Don Lemon, noting that Academy Award-nominated set decorator Rick Simpson claimed to have cured melanoma with medicinal hemp oil. [link to www.rawstory.com] This is great news. Hemp oil is a very effective treatment. |

HeebyGeebies User ID: 17321391 Canada 06/12/2012 12:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Oh no, not Tommy. I am so sad to hear that. :( I was just thinking the other day that I hope you are with us for many more years. What he is talking about, marijuana OIL, is much different than smoking it. You take a HUGE amount of pot (an amount of pot EVEN TOMMY CHONG couldn't smoke) and you process it into oil. There's some real interesting info out there on it, read a bit before you judge him for choosing this method. I do believe that hemp oil can help, but cure... I just don't know. I sure do hope so. It is a very mysterious plant. We're all rooting for ya Tommy. Much love. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 568958 United States 06/12/2012 03:50 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Tommy, there are easier ways to kill the cancer that don't mess with your mind. Google "Budwig Protocol", give it a try, and enjoy your golf game. I realize Tommy Chong isn't reading this, but that's what I'd tell him, after reading that article. Worked for me. Quoting: Wayward Son I used Baking Soda and Black Molasses along with Cannabis oil to cure my prostrate cancer. I realize that everyone is different. So, if you have cancer, find something that works for you and see it through. The stuff that the oncologist gave my almost killed me before I told him I want to go it by myself. |
