Protecting the brain from effects of stroke, other disorders
More recently, in late 1999, new information has emerged from studies by federal researchers at the National Institutes of Mental Health. Their reports have stated that THC, the chief psychoactive compound found in marijuana, and cannabidiol (CBD), a nonpsychoactive component, both appear to protect brain cells from the damage that often occurs during a stroke. When the brain's blood supply is cut, as occurs during a stroke, THC and CBD act as powerful antioxidants, protecting the brain cells from exposure to toxic levels of the brain chemical called glutamate. This finding also indicates that marijuana may hold medical value in the treatment of brain injuries and diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Curing deadly brain cancer, glioma Researchers in Spain have discovered that injecting THC directly into certain brain tumors (called glioma, normally an incurable disease), has killed the cancer cells. Normal brain tissue has been unaffected by the injection. Scientists caution that smoked marijuana may deliver little THC directly to cancer tissue. The report is published in the March 2000 issue of Nature Medicine.

I did a lot of research on Brain Injuries, and when I was recovering from one, I was with a lot of recovering stroke-victims. What happens is that a shock to the brain, such as a tremendous impact or blood-hemorraging, triggers the hippocampus to use the cannabinoid system with brain neurons to heal and protect the body. Once this happens, marijuana becomes a very spiritual thing to you, because of the hippocampi and anandamides, etc...
