My wife has been having chemo for her breast cancer and has been having horrible nausea. I think we should ask her doctor about a medical marijuana card to help her be less nauseous.

I’m interested in looking for natural pain relievers since my cousin has cancer and she s currently under a lot of discomfort from her treatment. I’ll forward this article to her and hope that she can find a medical THC supplier soon.

The idea that this biological active structure has the purpose of protecting the plant itself from been eaten by wildlife is a fascinating concept. Likewise, this active compound is very effective in protecting the Human body against all sorts of Disease; infective and inflammatory disorders.
Even in small oral dosages, THC is very effective; 5mg daily by oral means.
Medical marijuana is legally available in Canada and can be used for medicinal purposes quite freely.
The scientific reason for this molecule’s medicinal power is closely related to its unique structure; namely, it is a powerful oxidizing agent coupled with lipid friendly properties allowing for its access into cells of all types.
This is one of the most powerful medicines to come from the green leaf in its healing properties.
Perhaps those who take marijuana will be protected against infectious diseases of all types and inflammatory disease including Leaky Gut Syndrome, which is a causative factor in many diseases that have been hard to cope with.
THC has this amazing property of sealing off the leaks in the gut. This is in fact a very profound finding of tremendous medical implications. It looks like this has been missed by the medical research community.

Regular users may consider raw diet rich in kiwis and papayas or supplemental protease enzymes like: bromelain, serrapeptase, nattokinase, lubrokinase.

The only values anyone ought to trust are the ones published by the USDA. Nevertheless, in a speculative context, has anyone tried to guess? How does CBD compare to cocoa, cinnamon, or cloves?

Furthermore, cannabidiol increases alpha and theta power spectra but diminished delta power spectra. Additionally, cannabidiol increases c-Fos expression in lateral hypothalamus or dorsal raphe nueclei. These findings suggest that cannabidiol is a wake-inducing compound that presumably activates neurons in lateral hypothalamus and dorsal raphe nuclei.
(So cannabis increases alpha and theta sleep and decrease delta sleep. Delta sleep is when growth hormone and prolactin are produced. Growth hormone is essential for klotho, the anti-aging hormone.)
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/11613107/Boys-who-smoke-cannabis-are-four-inches-shorter.html Levels of puberty-related hormones such as testosterone and luteinising hormone (LH) were increased in the cannabis smokers. In contrast, growth hormone levels in the group were decreased.

• Super strong cannabis responsible for quarter of psychosis cases
• Cannabis use shrinks and rewires the brain
• Even casual use of cannabis alters the brain
• Cannabis can be highly addictive, major study finds

It was also found that non-smoking boys were on average four kilos heavier and 4.6 inches taller by the age of 20 than the dope smokers.

The researchers also looked at the effect of smoking cannabis on levels of the stress hormone, cortisol, in 10 cannabis addicts.

They found that dope smokers have significantly higher levels of cortisol than non-smokers.
