Sometimes It Sucks Having Tits: Today In Cancer
Filed under: Health
Because we care so much about breasts, here are two things. On one hand, weed junkies are having it good:
A compound found in cannabis may stop breast cancer from spreading throughout the body, according to a new study by scientists at California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute. The researchers are hopeful that the compound called CBD, which is found in Cannabis sativa, could be a non-toxic alternative to chemotherapy.
On the other hand, mammography seems to be not hitting what it should:
For every 2,000 women who use mammography to screen for breast cancer in a ten-year period, ten healthy women will be diagnosed incorrectly with breast cancer and will be treated unnecessarily. Such treatments may include lumpectomies, mastectomies and radiation therapy.
