No idea how much legitimacy there is to this but thought I'd just post it for interest sake.

Cannabis can probably cure that.

I wish it were legal so I can just ingest it rather then smoke it. cough cough. Doesn't surprise me too much that it has pharmaceutical effects such as in the video, so does tea tree oil.

Ingesting actually will give you a more 'high' feel rather than just smoking it because of certain enzymes in the stomach that break down a specific chemical compound (forgot the name) other than THC... so I would feel that a lot more people rather eat cannabis than just smoking it.

I remember the first time I smoked a joint... after that I never touched an alcohol beverage after that.. haha.

I was against marijuana for so many years, I told myself that I had no motivation as it was, 'should I smoke marijuana I would be a mess'.

Then, I met a medical marijuana user/ grower who convinced me to try it for a week or 2. One of the best things I have done in my life! No more liver killing meds, and I am now able to sleep without pain. I don't smoke much, a little of the one hitter before bed, and out cold.

Always been pro cannabis. Everyone should watch a movie called the The Union. It is a really well done document on marijuana. Its also on netflix. Their is really a long list of benefits from marijuana. And I can only really think of two disadvantages; Its definitely a gateway drug, and it can demote your motivation if used heavily which really does not stand up against the long list of benefits. One of them being medical.

I tried a piece of chocolate cake once that just so happened to have weed butter - instead of vegetable oil - used in the batter.

One normal-sized piece and I felt like I was melting into the gaps between the couch cushions about thirty minutes later. Absolutely unbelievable feeling of relaxation. Slept like a baby, too.

Cesamet. Limited usefulness, that's why you don't see it much. Smoking it gives you much higher levels much, much quicker. The smoke itself is carcinogenic and can lead to COPD just like cigarettes can. If someone is terminally ill, there is no reason l can think of not to smoke it instead

What do you need to do to get prescribed Cesamet? Cancer patients only, or are there other ailments? Any legal channels to buy it without a prescription? Buddy of mine is wondering.
