BREAKING NEWS: US Gov’t Admits Cannabis Cures Cancer
March 18, 2018
By Dr. John Regan - urhealthguide.com
The moment medical marijuana has been waiting for since California first passed laws legalizing the medicinal use of cannabis, in 1996, is finally here — the US government has, at last, admitted that marijuana has medical benefit. Yes, you heard right — the US government recently updated content pages on the National Cancer Institute’s (an official division of the US Department of Health) website to include information about cannabis and cannabinoids.
Attempting to not draw too much attention to the update, the US National Cancer Institute quietly updated their website in January, admitting that cannabis and cannabinoids kill cancer without damaging the body’s normal cells. Considering that cannabis is a Schedule 1 drug, which according to the Controlled Substances Act of 1970, means that it holds NO MEDICINAL VALUE, how could such a unbelievable admission go unnoticed by mainstream media? After all this is the plant that has been demonized as the “gateway drug”, for the past 80 years — this is BREAKING NEWS!!
The pages include a section for both patients, and physicians, and covers topics ranging from the medical effects of cannabinoids, to preclinical studies conducted using cannabis or cannabinoids. Studies in mice and rats have shown that cannabinoids may inhibit the growth of a tumor by causing cell death, blocking cell growth, and blocking the development of blood vessels need by tumors to grow. While further animal and laboratory study’s have shown evidence that cannabinoids may be able to kill cancer cells while protecting normal cells.
Additional studies have shown that there is evidence of cannabinoids protecting against inflammation and cancer of the colon; may have anti-tumor effects; may be effective in stoping breast cancer; and may make chemotherapy more effective.
Also included, is commentary about how the US government distributed cannabis to patients on a case-by-case basis under the Compassionate Use Investigational Drug (IND) program between 1978 and 1992, despite while claiming that cannabis held no medicinal value. It goes on further to say that researchers, have studied how cannabinoids act on the brain and other parts of the body, and have discovered cannabinoid receptors (molecules that bind cannabinoids) in both brain cells, and nerve cells in other parts of the body, with further evidence of cannabinoid receptors on immune system cells, suggesting that cannabinoids may play a key role in immunity, too.
It also includes information on its effectiveness to stimulate an appetite, relieve pain, reduce inflammation, control nausea and vomiting, it’s anti-anxiety effects.
Since the early 1990’s physicians have been prescribing opioid medications at an ever-increasing, and alarming rate. Resulting in an epidemic far greater in evil, than any reefer madness. The US, is now battling to counter the out-of-control, critical state of prescription drug abuse that is plaguing all classes, ethnicities, and ages. It is estimated that 52 million people have used prescription pills for non-medical reasons at least once in their lifetime, including a overwhelming large number of young people.
The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) conducted a survey called “Monitoring the Future”, which found that 1 in 12 high school seniors reported non-medical use and abuse of prescription pills, while rating Vicodin, and OxyContin, as the most commonly abused drugs by adolescents. In an effort to regain control of the pill-popping monster that has been pharmaceutically created, the US is clamping down on the physicians who have writing the prescriptions, enforcing a strict new protocol that is leaving only pain management physicians with the right to prescribe pain pills.
Which leaves us to wonder only one thing – could the federal government be getting ready to reschedule cannabis, allowing for the medical research and scientific study of pot?
Firstly as a solution, to curbing the pandemic of prescription abuse among people, and patients.
Secondly as a peace offering, to the pharmaceutical super-giants grotesquely over-capitalizing on the current state of the nation — cannabis will open the door to a whole new pharmaceutical industry as compensation, and while this is not something we condone, the simple fact alone is enough to have the ensure that pharmaceutical lobbyists share our agenda.
Thirdly, because President Obama promised to support and sign the CARERS ACT, legalizing the medicinal use of marijuana thereby allowing for its use by the Veterans Affairs, and the vets who repeatedly keep pleading for reform — Question: Why are our vets pleading? They are our veterans, the men and women who have risked their lives, to defend and protect ours. They shouldn’t need to ask – let alone still beg or plead! As a nation, we should respectfully give them anything they need to help ease their pain and suffering, as a result of their service.
And finally – and most importantly of all – because President Obama promised change, and congressional reform of medical cannabis if the states led the way. Considering that when Obama took office in 2009 there were already 14 legal medical marijuana states, and now there’s 23 with more on the way, while 4 states and the District of Columbia have altogether legalized the recreational adult-use of pot, its clear that the states have held up their end. Now, its time for the president to uphold his.
“I don’t think rescheduling is something that I would characterize as drastic,” said U.S. Rep. Earl Blumenauer (D-Oregon), one of the key members of Congress’s cannabis reform cabal. “If we were scheduling today, marijuana would not be Schedule I — or Schedule II. In fact, it may not be scheduled at all.”
“If we were scheduling from scratch and doing so based on scientific evidence, tobacco would be Schedule I. It’s an addictive killer,” he added.
Let the THUNDER start lol.

I sold all NTLK made 800 and will look at re entry. BTW, what news?
DWT is looking like a possible starter.
SD
Nice to see you back sir, your comments have been missed.
SD
I bought more yesterday
SD
Sounds about right,The building might just be a metal kit style building and can go up in short order. The machines just need to be bought and installed and CGRW group have already grown enough MJ to start feeding them.
Basically, the more money they throw at it the faster it will proceed. I'm just waiting to hear that they have the building permit "in hand" from there they should be balls to the wall getting it running. JMO
SD

You watching silky new trade ABCE?
SD
I have heard the same thing from several other sources and eagerly await the start of the kitchen breaking ground when they get the ok.
I also picked up some more at these bargins.
SD
I picked up some more while they are this cheap and am awaiting news also. I'm ready to see the big boys step in and start buying and want mine before they come in.
SD
The charts look better than they have in days. Nice to see a turn in the tide here.
SD
This article mentions a PR in Feb. 18 but I don't see it above in the company profile. Will you please add it or confirm it is coming and when?
TIA,
SD
Thanks for all the calls on the market sir. I may not post much here but I do watch the calls. You are appreciated.
SD
damn, someone thinks it's going up and wants a chunk of this. And indicators are turning up on the lower time frame charts. Seems there is light at the end of the tunnel.
SD
Yep, nice move up off support and moving averages are stacked up nicely on the 5 min. chart and higher time frames seem to be turning up as well. I'm ready for the move up.
SD
I grabbed a few myself

SD
Yep, LOL Just adding to the stash.
SD
!/2 my order just filled. Helping pave the floor LOL
Update, the other half filled as well.
SD
I have a bid in now for some of these cheap shares just waiting for a fill.
SD
Yes and for a ticker that has basically bottomed on the chart and appears to be resetting for the next move up you would think that current shareholders would be in here making some noise. Stocks always seem to move faster when the shareholders show an interest. JMO
SD
I just grabbed more as well.
SD
He returned my call as well and said the same as y'all have said. All seems well and time is the catalyst here. We either need to be happy with our trade or move on. JMO.
SD
I have an order in now waiting for it to fill.
Agreed, and thank you for that breath of fresh air to our situation. Your input is appreciated and grabbing a few more down here is a good idea.
Please let us know if you find anything worthy of attention here,
SD
For the last 6 months it has bounced up from these levels and we are overdue for news. The time is right and the chart is primed for it. All is well. Let the good times roll.
SD
Kool, would you please expound on that as in PR, update, CEO letter, what is it?
SD
They ARE Pink current and would only take some PR or company update to move it up from here, so time will tell. And lets face it, any of us that are holding shares can only help our place here by posting positive posts. Negative posts only bring your own share price further down, Just sayin.
SD
I don't know dude, maybe they are just waiting for the right moment.
SD
I'm just saying that it has bounced up from these levels for the last 6 months. I only know what I see on the chart. Sometimes they work when Mgmt doesn't lol.
SD
He may be referring to the last time we were at this level we bounced to .00427 and only in 2 days. At least that is what I am seeing on the daily chart. He's been doing this longer than I have and volume is picking up as well. Maybe the bottom is in.
SD
Lets look on the good side, cause gloom and doom aint gonna bring this up. Find something positive to say.
As I look at the charts above, I see the accumulation high and holding on the daily and the 15 min. and the MACD starting to curl up as well. Maybe the bottom is in. JMO
