Only the 100th "cure for cancer" that will never make it to human trials.

I know a lady who’s daughter has stage 4 lung cancer who swears CBD oil shrunk the tumors. She quit chemo because it wasn’t working and was going to live out her 6 months and now they have hope because cbd seems to be helping.
I’ve also heard that cancer needs sugar to grow and a keto diet can starve tumors. I don’t know anyone personally that has tried it, though.

Jeff Sessions thinks that girl should be put in jail.

When it comes to cancer, symantics can be argued over all day. But when you get down to the very core of what is going on when cancer forms, it's just one more process in nature involving biology and physics.
Radiation, for example, does not play well with most biological processes. Just imagine tiny bullets of high energy EM waves literally cutting holes in every biological process it goes through, from cells all the way down in size to DNA. If the process is damaged enough, it's gonna die outright or mutate. This is a fact of nature. The only real "cure" for cancer is living as proactive of a lifestyle as possible to prevent these external stressors from impacting the body over the course of a lifetime. And when they occur, having an effective treatment. The treatment today is amazing compared to twenty years ago.. and imagine 80 years ago, when radium was used to destroy cancer.
Having said that.. even then, mutations still occur naturally in cells, so it's never a guarantee.

It really is a shame that cancer takes a guy like him but we get stuck with Keith Olbermann for the rest of our lives.
