Cannabis and Its Health Benefits: January 2015 Update

You probably know that our beloved marijuana is quite helpful to fight the uncomfortable side effects of chemotherapy. And I am quite certain many people are aware of the fact that cannabis is a promoter of relaxation and positive attitude. Still, few people truly understand the extent of the health benefits offered by this (sadly) controversial gift of nature. For instance, did you know that, starting from January 2015, Illinois residents that suffer from glaucoma, HIV and hepatitis C can now use medical marijuana? And other states around the US have also added post-traumatic stress disorder, arthritis, migraines and insomnia to the list.

This is probably the worst consequence of the criminalizing politics and regulations conceived and enforced around the globe throughout the last 120 years: lack of knowledge and awareness, too often replaced by misinformation, misconceptions and misinterpretations. It’s time to turn on the light and fight the obscurity ignorance always brings to the table. Here is what science tells us:
1 – The main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis, THC, can slow down the growth of cancer cells;
2 – Cannabis is a wonderful solution for people who suffer from migraines;
3 – Recent studies have indicated cannabis shows encouraging potentials in fighting against Alzheimer’s disease;
4 – Chronic diseases, such as ulcerative colitis, acute and chronic colitis, and Crohn’s disease, can be fought using cannabis-based drugs, which successfully alleviate most of the symptoms;
5 – Cannabis lowers the intraocular pressure and can cure glaucoma;
6 – In cases of ADD and ADHD, cannabis is one of the most successful alternatives to Ritalin, and it also comes without all the side effects of the standard medication;
7 – Because it relaxes muscles throughout the body, cannabis is a good antispasmodic and…
8 – For the same reason, it also helps fighting symptoms related to multiple arteriosclerosis;
9 – Patients who suffer from OCD and Tourette can also enjoy the benefits cannabis offers;
10 – Cannabis cures the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, relieving pain and helping managing mood changes. This syndrome affects as many as 75% of women worlwide.
Obviously, in order to be curative, cannabis must be of excellent quality and its origin must be proven and guaranteed. An ideal option is buying quality seed to grow indoors or outdoors without using chemicals or other substances that could alter the natural properties of the plant.
