MEDICINAL CANNABIS WARNING / DISCLAIMER
There is no pharmacological free lunch in cannabis or any drug. Negative reactions can result. A small percentage of people have negative or allergic reactions to marijuana. Heart patients could have problems, even though cannabis generally relieves stress, dilates the arteries, and in general lowers the diastolic pressure. A small percentage of people get especially high heart rates and anxieties with cannabis. These persons should not use it. Some bronchial asthma sufferers benefit from cannabis; however, for others it may serve as an additional irritant.

Marijuana Radio USA
Hi everyone... A few weeks ago I was interviewed on a show from the U.S. called "Marijuana Radio/TV" by a young woman named Holly G and another guy named Paul. The Interview is very down to earth. The show is very colorful as is their language, but for some reason this show among others has had a lot of visitors pretty regularly. I like them. Maybe that's why...? http://www.marijuanaradiotv.com/ Scroll down the page and see the show dated "Tuesday, July 24th, 2007 with Alison Myrden". I tripped across their show after doing some stuff on the Internet a few weeks ago and contacted Holly G right away. She got back to me that day and voilá! I was on their show...…
