“A comedian who based his career off the reefer says it saved his life. Tommy Chong from the comedy duo “Cheech and Chong” says marijuana cured his prostate cancer.”
“Last week, Tommy Chong posted on CelebStoner that hemp oil helped him beat prostate cancer. The 74-year-old comedian added that the marijuana-based product used in conjunction with a supplemental diet and a session with a “world-renowned” healer brought his cancer threat down.
“That’s right, I kicked cancer’s ass! So the magic plant does cure cancer with the right diet and supplements,” Chong wrote.
Chong was diagnosed with prostate cancer last June. According to his post, Chong said he was recommended an intense treatment in Mexico, which cost $25,000. He sought an alternative and found a Canadian doctor who recommended a different diet and “hash oil.”
“I’m due for another blood test, MRI, etc., but I feel the best I’ve felt in years. And now for a celebration joint of the finest Kush,” Chong wrote.
Chong has advocated for the legalization of marijuana in the United States. He thinks that legalizing pot on a federal level would alleviate the country’s economic woes.”
