As far as I can tell from a brief search [0] cannabis is definitely considered anti-inflammatory. So obviously there's a huge lack of "decent" research in marijuana in general, so which specific chemicals and mechanisms cause this effect isn't widely understood. Also research suggesting many diseases and ailments are somehow caused by or affected by inflammation (allergies are an obvious example - not that I'm claiming cannabis is a treatment for allergies) is fairly recent. So there may be _some_ merit there. That said, cannabis is definitely not "a cure for everything" like many stoners like to claim. And I never understood why it being "from a plant" makes it better than other drugs - poison ivy and poison hemlock are both "perfectly natural" but I think you'll certainly find some negative effects from those.
