Pot is Tommy Chong's cure for prostate cancer, naturally

6/10/2012

How is Tommy Chong treating prostate cancer? With marijuana, of course. The serially stoned actor says he's taking hemp oil and smoking weed to treat the illness, with which he was diagnosed a month ago. Chong boasts that his illness only emerged during a three-year drug-free period, preemptively countering detractors who may claim marijuana might have caused his problems. "So I know it had nothing to do with cannabis," he said. "Cannabis is a cure." It's an interesting theory, but unless you want your health going up in smoke, we suggest he put the lighter down and contact a real doctor.
