Cannabis could help fight breast cancer

CBD fights the disease by stopping the activity of a gene called Id-1, which is believed to be responsible for the spread of cancer cells from the site of the original tumour - a process known as metastasis.
The study found CBD had this affect on breast cancer cells in a laboratory.
