Internet is rife with stories about winning the battle against cancer with the help of exocannabinoids.

What does the science say?

  1. Anti-proliferative - cannabis is against tumor growth
  2. Anti-metastatic - cannabis is against cancer spreading to other parts in the body because of metastatic activity
  3. Anti-angiogenetic - cannabis is against new blood vein growth to tumor
  4. Apoptotic - cannabis causes cancer cells to programmedly kill themselves (apoptosis). Cannabinoids are however harmless to healthy cannabinoid receptor containing cells.
