Chapter 7 - THERAPEUTIC USE OF CANNABIS
There are more than 60 therapeutic compounds in cannabis that are healing agents in medical and herbal treatments. The primary one is THC, and the effectiveness of therapy is directly proportionate to the herbā??s potency or concentration of THC.
Lung Cleaner & Expectorant
Cannabis is the best natural expectorant to clear the human lungs of smog, dust and the phlegm associated with tobacco use.
Therapeutic Emphysema Potential
Medical research indicates that light cannabis smoking might be useful for a majority of mild emphysema victims. It would improve the quality of life for millions of sufferers and extend their life spans.

More bunk. Ignorance can be cured. Poorness depends on using the proper medications. First, leaves are not smokable with only 30% THC. Or sticks and stems. So much for government grown schwagg. Buyers clubs use only buds. No problem with quality assurance. More hype because there just has to be something wrong with it, it's illegal! Nixon lied.

It is supposed too in order to expectorate the toxins. Only the large airways, not the small. But having lung cancer getting irritation is a tad bias that everyone would suffer. Ganja is a preventive. Maybe a cure.

Pot Shrinks Tumors; Government Knew In '74
The Madrid study marks only the second time that THC has been administered to tumor-bearing animals. In 1974, researchers at the Medical College of Virginia, who had been funded by the National Institutes of Health to find evidence that marijuana damages the immune system, found instead that THC slowed the growth of three kinds of cancer in mice -- lung and breast cancer, and a virus-induced leukemia. The DEA quickly shut down the Virginia study.
You are wrong. Blaming Ganja for ignorance of buyers not growing, what? Dude, Ganja is or it is not, period. No victims then either they used schwagg or leaves or male plants but it is not Ganja buds. So after ten thousand years of use you might think the Biz Czar could come up with one or two actual victims. With real names and addresses. You have it in your head its bad smoke or all smoke is bad and all the science in the world won't change that, or would anyone want to. You have to decide and you should be fair to yourself and decide after an informed decision. Satevex is atomizing a plant extract and former ass x DEA Barthwell is selling it. The same quotes were given by her before she got the job. Still pushing the bad smoke to Canada, leaving her product as the only answer. Thats why they call it Fascism, Government business leaving out the individual entrepreneurs. Unkle Scam patented some cannabinoids. For preaching no medical value 40 years that seems rather odd.
Con Flicts of Interest Bush Barthwell & Drugs
Health regulators have sent an uncompromising message that smoked cannabis will not be approved for use by MS sufferers, leaving the way open for GW's under-the-tongue spray version of the drug.
Former Deputy Drug Czar Andrea Barthwell is the new spokesperson for getting GW Pharmaceuticals' Sativex approved for use in the United States. Bayer and GW Pharmaceuticals announce marketing agreement on pioneering new cannabis-based treatment.
"The people who are advancing marijuana as a medicine are perpetuating a cruel hoax that exploits our compassion for the sick. They are using patients' pain and suffering in an attempt to change America's drug control policy. Marijuana is a crude plant product that most definitely is not a medicine."

Government patents cannabinoids? No Medical Value?

Come on, that old shit. I thought this might be a challenge. Dude contaminants were cured decades ago with simple heat treatments before toking. If you can't swallow pills smoke is an effective way to get medicine into the system. And again, no one was harmed by tobacco before chemicals were added to cigarettes. Not added to Ganja. To disregard this nuisance to drug worriers is false and shows desperation trying to find something to justify you not smoking. Don't. It ain't like it's addictive or something. But why anyone would try to stop me is beyond reason.
Microbiological contaminants of marijuana by J. M. McPartland
Vermont Alternative Medicine, 53 Washington Street, Middlebury, VT 05753, USA.
Levitz and Diamond (1991) suggested baking marijuana in home ovens at 150o C, for five minutes before smoking. Oven treatment killed conidia of A. fumigatus, A. flavus and A. niger, and did not degrade the active component of marijuana, tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

Now go ask your doctor why he wasn't taught about the Cannabinoid system and the THC receptors and transmitters in everyone. Or the various cannabinoids with only Delta 9 getting you high. The only one used in fake Merdeinol. Atomizers release the lower temp cannabinoids. But that doesn't mean getting high is harmful or eliminate the properties of opening smaller bronchial airways for Asthma patients. Or as stated the expectorant preventing cigarettes from landing on delicate tissue causing the acid environment to breed cancer. Get your body alkaline dude.
Lingering THC Metabolites
Government's Own Experts Say That Metabolites Are
Non-Toxic, Harmless Residue
Lung Damage Studies
Not One Documented Case of Cancer
However, unlike tobacco smoke, cannabis smoke does not cause any changes in the small airways, the area where tobacco smoke causes long term and permanent damage. Additionally, a tobacco smoker will smoke 20 to 60 cigarettes a day, while a heavy marijuana smoker may smoke five to seven joints a day, even less when potent high-quality flower tops are available.

No one said it cured everything. Ignorance is alive and well as we can see. Denying or speculating reefer madness "theory" is what hurts the cause. Whatever "the cause" is. I bring research. take it or leave it. You bring antidotes, once upon a time news stories you read and AMA hypothesis. Hey why not ask Waldo Pee? I choose to leave it.

I'm sorry....I missed where any of this is your personal experience....you know....the part where the doctor is looking at YOU and talking about YOUR death and not just some unknown anybody... ....could you please tell me again about YOUR personal experience with any of the things I've listed?
Clinical depression
Lung Cancer
Alcoholism
Otherwise...... simply noise........sorry to so rude about it (and I know I am) but I'm too short on time to waste it on those who haven't been there themselves.
Have a good one.
