"The acute toxicity of cannabis is very low. There are no confirmed cases of human deaths from cannabis poisoning in the world medical literature. Animal studies indicate that the dose of THC required to produce 50% mortality in rodents is extremely high by comparison with other commonly used pharmaceutical and recreational drugs. The lethal dose also increases as one moves up the phylogenetic tree, suggesting by extrapolation that the lethal increases as one moves up the phylogenetic tree, suggesting by extrapolation that the lethal dose in humans could not be very easily achieved by smoking or ingesting the drug (Grinspoon and Bakalar, 1993; Rosencrantz, 1983)."
The Probable Health Effects of Cannabis
"Government Confirms And Reports That Marijuana Prevents Or Cures Certain Cancers"
"In a recent report, the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the Federal governments National Institutes of Health (NIH), stated that marijuana inhibited the survival of both estrogen receptorpositive and estrogen receptornegative breast cancer cell lines.
The same report showed marijuana slows or stops the growth of certain lung cancer cells and suggested that marijuana may provide risk reduction and treatment of colorectal cancer.
Referring to the NCI report, Patient Rights attorney Matthew Pappas said, The Federal governments continuing attack on people prescribed medical cannabis by their doctors is hypocritical considering the benefits reported by its own National Cancer Institute. "

In the days, weeks, and months to come sinc eColorado legalized pot, expect many scare tactic articles harkening back to "Reefer Madness." The alcohol companies are expected to be the primary supporters of such propaganda as recreational marijuana use is much safer than similar use of alcohol. Thus booze companies are facing a loss in revenues thus have a financial stake is defaming the use of a competing substance.
