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.

  1. Best Strain for GWS

    What would be the best strain for my 'condition'? What is GWS? GWS is the Official Term being used for the Gulf War Syndrome, a nice present alot of us Vets recieved during the first round of the Gulf War, in 1990-91. Last speculation from the Department of Veterans Affairs, Pentagon, and Private research is that it is more than likely attributed to contamination to some or all of the following: Pesticides, Sarin Gas (Nerve Agent), Mustard Gas (another NA), other trace ammounts of NBC Agents (Nuclear, Biological, Chemical Warfare). Mixed with the antidotes we took in pill and shot forms, and other not so nice microbes in the area. Ailments? To name just a few, chr…

  4. SMOKING TO FIGHT INSOMNIA

    I used to suffer from chronic insomnia. I'd been on and off sleeping pills for about 2 and a half years and found the medication was just fucking up my sleeping pattern completely. I started smoking pot a couple hours before I planned to sleep and if I let myself fall asleep just as the buzz is wearing off, I find that I sleep like a fucking baby. I wake up totally refreshed. The only problem now is that I can't get a good nights sleep without weed. My girl hates me smoking even though she understands the benefits of it for me. I'm thinking of asking her to move in with me, but she's made it quite clear that she won't do that unless I quit or seriously cut back on my usag…

  13. Canada To Sell Marijuana Over-the-counter

    Canada plans to make government-certified marijuana available in local pharmacies, a move that would make Canada the second country in the world after the Netherlands to allow the direct sale of medical marijuana. Officials are organising a pilot project in British Columbia, modeled on a year-old program in the Netherlands. Currently, there are 78 medical users in Canada permitted to buy government marijuana, which is grown in Flin Flon, Manitoba. A 30-gram (about an ounce) bag of dried buds, sells for $US113 ($A150) each, and are sent by courier directly to patients or to their doctors. But the department is changing the regulations to allow participating pharma…

  14. Eating viz smoking

    Hi if we are taking about medicinal use of a herb surely smoking would have no part, or minimum part, to play in that. Pumping toxic tar ridden fumes into your lungs is a recipe for disaster and ill health. I can't remember when was the last time I smoked a joint of basil. Even recreational users get a far better stone of ingestion thru the colon? What are your thoughts?? If any.. OK so the poor bastard at deaths door who cannot chew may have a point but for the rest why not munch on cookies? That way the health police cannot rave on..and we all avoid nasty oxidants either actively or passively.
