The world should join Portugal

Way back in 2001 a fellow E.U member became one of the first country's  to decriminalize all drugs, Portugal now almost 15 years later has not only seen a 'decline' in overall drug consumption but also has a reduction in drug related deaths. Diseases are also declining. This model they have introduced is clearly working. Isn't it time the world followed Portugal's incredibly brave move and defeat its war on drugs by making it non existing. The future for children would be healthier as schools and health centers could gather more information to assist addicts or abusers getting the help they really need, while educating children on the harmful effects of drugs. Instead of jailing our fellow humans and forcing them into a life of crime, we should once again be following Portugal by sending users to therapy. In the long run therapy is less of a cost on the state than prison. As it costs way more to lock up a human for those drugs they consume. Source : http://ww

Kansas bill could soon break the way for research into cannabis an hemp

Hemp would be grown for research and cannabis products would be legalized to treat chronic seizures under two bills before the Kansas Legislature. The House Health and Human Services Committee endorsed a bill Monday that would allow companies to produce hemp oils and sell them to people suffering from chronic seizures. Democratic Rep. John Wilson of Lawrence sponsored the bill and said about 24,000 Kansans suffering from such disorders could be affected. The House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee held a hearing on a separate bill Monday that would direct the Department of Agriculture to grow and study industrial hemp. Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Jake Worcester said he supported the bill and that the department already has held preliminary talks with Kansas State University about potential collaboration on the project. Lets hope this bill comes through its time to end this war on drugs , fix the system one step at a time

Cannabinoids for Neuropathic Pain.

Treatment options for neuropathic pain have limited efficacy and use is fraught with dose-limiting adverse effects. The endocannabinoid system has been elucidated over the last several years, demonstrating a significant interface with pain homeostasis. Exogenous cannabinoids have been demonstrated to be effective in a range of experimental neuropathic pain models, and there is mounting evidence for therapeutic use in human neuropathic pain conditions. This article reviews the history, pharmacologic development, clinical trials results, and the future potential of nonsmoked, orally bioavailable, nonpsychoactive cannabinoids in the management of neuropathic pain http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25160710?dopt=Abstract http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19789075
