Dr. Wilson Fights to Use Cannabis for His Daughter Dr. Michael Wilson testified before the committee about his professional and personal desires to see medicinal cannabis legalized. Before his turn, a woman named Tenille Farr discussed her experience treating her Stage II Hodgkin’s lymphoma with cannabis extracts instead of chemotherapy. She was pregnant at the time of diagnosis and could not use traditional treatments. After going to another state for treatment, her cancer stopped growing and became benign. Upon returning to Utah, the cancer started to grow again, and Farr now desires to reinitiate treatment.

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

In the study which Jon Snow (a scientist who took cannabis while taking part in the show) and others took part, They are comparing the effects of two different types of cannabis. One type has high levels of THC but virtually no CBD (which is highly dangerous as humans need cbd in cannabis to keep there mental health just right) and is often referred to as "skunk". The other type, sometimes called hash, ge

Safer than meth ?? Who knows what ya find on the net .... A new study  published in Scientific Reports, a subsidiary of the journal Nature, which sought to quantify the risk of death associated with the use of various intoxicating substances, has found however that marijuana is far and away the safest drug. It's at the bottom of the list by some distance, and is also the only drug that poses a low mortality risk to users.

Depression is bad alone then we have the illegal weed , illegality makes it worse on the users as they get stressed over cost and strength etc. Its time to unwind these laws break the chains, free the weed Source" theweedblog A study was recently released which found that marijuana can be an effective treatment for depression. Marijuana of course doesn’t cause the side effects that pharmaceuticals do. Per the Huffington Post : Neuroscientists from the University of Buffalo’s Research Institute on Addictions found that endocannabinoids — chemical compounds in the brain that activate the same receptors as THC, an active compound in marijuana — may be helpful in treating depression that results from chronic stress. In studies on rats, the researchers found that chronic stress reduced the production of endocannabinoids, which affect our cognition, emotion and behavior, and have been linked to reduced feelings of pain and anxiety, increases in appetite and overall feelings o

     The effects of chronic marijuana use on the brain may depend on age of first use and duration of use, according to researchers at the Center for BrainHealth at The University of Texas at Dallas. In a paper published today in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), researchers for the first time comprehensively describe existing abnormalities in brain function and structure of long-term marijuana users with multiple magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques. Findings show chronic marijuana users have smaller brain volume in the orbitofrontal cortex (OFC), a part of the brain commonly associated with addiction, but also increased brain connectivity. “We have seen a steady increase in the incidence of marijuana use since 2007,“said Dr. Francesca Filbey , Associate Professor in the School of Behavioral and Brain Sciences at the University of Texas at Dallas and Director of the Cognitive Neuroscience Research in Addictive Disorders at the Center for BrainHealth
