There is a constant search for the cure for cancer<\/a><\/strong>, which is an ever-present and growing epidemic that plagues millions of people every year. For years, a widely popular, natural, and beneficial cancer treatment option has been the use of marijuana<\/strong><\/a>, but smoking the substance also causes harmful effects on the body. Cannabis oil<\/strong>, while not fully backed by scientific evidence, has become a desirable option that could help cure cancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Cancer?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cancer is not a disease, but rather a process that affects the cells in the body. The process causes cells to rapidly grow without dying. In the normal process that is apoptosis, cells grow, separate, and die. If this system doesn\u2019t function properly, cancer cells, which aren\u2019t programmed to die, will keep growing out of control. The causes of cancer are aplenty, including age, genes, carcinogens, environment, immune system dysfunction, bacteria, viruses, and lifestyle choices. When cancer cells grow they can form a mass, which is known as a tumor<\/strong><\/a>. When a tumor grows it can inhibit proper bodily functions, primarily with the nervous, circulatory, or digestive systems, and cause health problems. The type of cancer will be determined by the kind of cells that happen during this growth process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
