medicine

Since the dawn of human race the cannabis plant has been used as medicine. The mainstream medicine(modern medicine) we use today was called the "allopathic medicine" and it was rejected by physicians due to many side effects. Therefore it was adopted by alternative medicine advocates and called the alternative medicine. Only recent when the petrochemical industry leaded by Rockefeller took over the global dominance of medicine and other industries.

The definitions were changed and today everything else that is not the "allopathic medicine"(modern medicine) is viewed upon as alternative medicine.

In the early half of the 20th century, petrochemical giants organized a coup on the medical research facilities, hospitals and universities. The Rockefeller family sponsored research and donated sums to universities and medical schools which had drug based research. They further extended this policy to foreign universities and medical schools where research was drug based through their "International Education Board". Establishments and research which were were not drug based were refused funding and soon dissolved in favor of the lucrative pharmaceutical industry

The oil monopoly created a medical monopoly financially by shaping education and medical institutions. This was a complete take over the international medical community and education system. Because these institutions taught their students exactly what the oil monopoly controlled by Rockefeller wanted. 

Today we know how dangourous the chemical drugs are. as example there is a landmark article published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) on April 15, 1998 entitled, "Incidence of Adverse Drug Reactions in Hospitalized Patients", evaluated serious and fatal adverse drug reactions (ADR)s in U.S. hospitals. The study revealed that in 1994, ADRs accounted for 2,216,000 serious events and 106,000 hospital deaths. ^[12] According to a 2003 comprehensive study of medical peer-review journals and government health statistics, there are an additional 199,000 fatal ADR outpatient deaths in the U.S. annually. ^[13], ^[14] According to the study, there are approximately 783,936 iatrogenic (medically induced) deaths every year in the U.S. Furthermore, the actual figure is estimated to be much higher, as only a fraction (between 5% and 20%) of iatrogenic acts are ever reported.

Cannabis was made illegal in the mid 20th century because it had to many benefits and was to big a competitor to the oil industry and emerging pharma companies. They needed to secure global dependence on oil and they succeeded, that’s way everything in our society mostly is manufactured from the oil that is owned by the multinational private companies.

Cannabis is coming back to people attention because it works and because now there are more then 10.000 studies highlight the fact that cannabis is more effective then the chemical medicine.

-Dietary essential that helps all cell types in human body to function more effectively.

-Contains molecule that help our bodies regulatory system to function more efficient.

-Stimulates the human endogenous cannabinoid system.

Psychiatry:

Studies show that THC and CBD have distinct effects on brain function in humans, and these may underlie their correspondingly different effects on cognition and psychiatric symptoms.  Determining how the constituents of cannabis act on the brain is fundamental to understanding the role of cannabis use in the aetiology of psychiatric disorders.

In the first paper published in Biological Psychiatry in December 2008, 'Neural Basis of Δ-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol and Cannabidiol: Effects During Response Inhibition' the researchers considered the effects of THC and CBD on brain function during a Go/No Go task which requires subjects to over-ride a regular button pressing response.  They found that THC reduced activation in the part of the prefrontal cortex that is normally critical for this ‘response inhibition’ process.  Please refer to the journal for a full copy of the paper. (Biological Psychiatry 64 (11), pp. 966-973) doi:10.1016/j.biopsych.2008.05.011)

In the second paper published in the Archives of General Psychiatry (12 January 2009) 'Distinct Effects of _9-Tetrahydrocannabinol and Cannabidiol on Neural Activation During Emotional Processing'  the researchers investigated the neurophysiological basis of the effects of cannabis on anxiety, using faces that had fearful expressions.  Normally viewing fearful faces provokes anxiety, activates the amygdala, and increases skin conductance (a measure of autonomic arounsal).  Administration of CBD reduced the response of the amygdale to fearful faces, and this effect was correlated with its effect on skin conductance.  Please refer to the Archives of General Psychiatry, January 2009 issues for full copies of this paper.  (Arch Gen Psychiatry, 2009;66 (1): 95-105.)



Learn about the amazing health benefits of juicing raw cannabis leaves  Learn more:
In raw form, marijuana leaves and buds are actually loaded with a non-psychoactive, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-cancer nutrient compound known as cannabidiol (CBD) that is proving to be a miracle "superfood" capable of preventing and reversing a host of chronic illnesses.

Though you may not have heard much about it, the CBD found in the marijuana plant -- marijuana is technically just a vegetable, by the way -- is a highly medicinal substance with unique immune-regulating capabilities. Since the human body already contains a built-in endogenous cannabinoid system, complete with cannabinoid receptors, inputting CBD from marijuana can help normalize the body's functional systems, including cell communication and proper immune function.

The way CBDs work is that they bridge the gap of neurotransmission in the central nervous system, including in the brain, by providing a two-way system of communication that completes a positive "feedback loop," according to Dr. William Courtney, a medical marijuana expert and founder of Cannabis International. As opposed to a one-way transmission, which can promote chronic inflammation of healthy tissue, the unique two-way transmission system engaged by marijuana CBDs mimics the body's own natural two-way communications system.

So individuals whose systems are compromised by autoimmune disorders, cellular dysfunction, chronic inflammation, cancer cells, and various other illnesses can derive a wide range of health-promoting benefits simply by consuming CBDs. And one of the best ways to obtain CBDs is to juice raw marijuana leaves and buds, according to Dr. Courtney, who currently runs a clinic in Luxembourg that provides raw cannabis medicinal services to patients in need.

"CBD works on receptors, and as it turns out, we have cannabinoids in our bodies, endogenous cannabinoids, that turn out to be very effective at regulating immune functions, nerve functions, bone functions," says Dr. Ethan Russo, a Seattle, Wash.-area physician who is also a senior advisor to GW Pharmaceuticals, a British drug company that is utilizing CBDs in a new marijuana mouth spray known as Sativex.

"There's a tendency to discount claims when something appears to be good for everything, but there's a reason this is the case. The endogenous cannabinoid system acts as a modulator in fine-tuning a lot of these systems, and if something is deranged biochemically in a person's body, it may well be that a cannabinoid system can bring things back into balance." www.cannabisinternational.org
