How Cannabis Can Stop the Progression of Metastatic Breast Cancer

Revolutionary documentaries, and where society stands

Dr. Sanjay Gupta, neurosurgeon and CNN media reporter, was originally opposed to cannabis for medicinal purposes. However, after doing research for a documentary he changed his opinion and said the benefits outweigh the risks. He then went on to release a three-part documentary called Weed: The Marijuana Revolution.

There is still much research to be done but it looks like we are headed in the right direction. Medicinal cannabis is a growing industry here in the United States. As of April 2017, 29 states plus the District of Columbia, have legalized the use of cannabis for medicinal purposes.
