Cannabis Use Accelerates HPV-Related Cancer Growth, Research Shows

I don't care one way or another, but I occasionally click on these threads, and the potheads who one star these threads, and hate the OP are pretty pathetic.

Everytime I've checked the info provided seems to be legit. I know y'all want to believe weed is supposedly some magical cure all, but obviously it is not.

Now as long as you realize that, I don't give a shit if you get high. But let's not pretend you're not doing something bad for you cuz it makes you feel good.

You're like a bunch of alcoholics who refuse to admit the liquor is bad for you. Stop lashing out at the messenger providing you with facts so you can make an informed decision.

What a sad life you must lead.

Some pothead loser who's dependent on marijuana to cope with reality negged me for my post above! I just want to say that I am devastated.

How’s your opioid addiction going, OP?

You confessed that you needed your meds. Hypocrite.

:ura_idiot:


I am not addicted to anything you spaz.

Why don’t you focus on the the dangers of alcohol? It’s really bad for you too...

Because you have some motive or agenda.

This really gives you NO credibility.

This really gives you NO credibility.

Possibly because everyone already knows alcohol is bad for you? And it is already legal, and heavily regulated.

Across the country there is a push to decriminalize, or outright legalize marijuana for recreational use. Those pushing this agenda are obviously touting it's benign nature, and beneficial attributes.

It has actually become "mainstream" now to support legalizing marijuana. I mean everyone gets high!

So I have no problems with hearing opposing viewpoints. As I said before, OP isn't just making wild claims. There are always links to support his statements.

I want to hear from both sides, and make an informed decision for myself whether marijuana should be legalized. These threads are about the only source where I hear the "drawbacks" of marijuana.

this doofus has more one star threads than Zakk..

why don't you find a new cause, dickbrains?

5* to OP for his continued destruction of the pot is good for you myth 99% of GLP loves to perpetuate.

Everything caries a risk in this world but op is scaremongering for red karma.

As you comment on every comment, Lolololol.....come on man, it’s ok to be a paid operative. Own that shit.

To be fair and balanced, life ain't worth living without weed and pussy anyways.

Sad life.

Research Shows Marijuana Use Can Accelerate HPV-Related Cancer Growth

Specific cannabis compounds have been shown to help cancer cells grow.

While marijuana has been touted by many for its beneficial medical effects, there are some health conditions where cannabis might not be so good for you. New research from the University of California San Diego School of Medicine showed that tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) -- the cannabis compound that makes users "high" -- causes accelerated growth of neck and head cancer cells in patients with human papillomavirus (HPV).

HPV-related neck and head cancers are among the fastest-growing cancer types in America. Squamous cell carcinoma, a type of cancer found in the mucous membranes of the throat, nose, and mouth, is the sixth most common type of cancer in the world, with as much as 30% of all cases being HPV-related. What's more, this percentage is on the rise, and cannabis use is suspected to be the cause.

How Marijuana Accelerates Growth of HPV-related Head and Neck Cancer Identified

University of California San Diego School of Medicine researchers have identified the molecular mechanism activated by the presence of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) — the ingredient that causes people to feel the euphoria or “high” associated with cannabis — in the bloodstream that accelerates cancer growth in patients with human papillomavirus (HPV)-positive head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
