The best plant under the sun

Marijuana in its raw form cannot be therapeutically fit for the indications ascribed to it above but the active ingredients,the cannabinoids when extracted can be useful in clinical practice.

Please no one should go on marijuana spree or indulgence in the pretence of curing one form of disease or the other because the euphoria you will get from it can never outweigh the major adverse effect....Psychosis.

Psychosis is only a risk to marijuana users who are genetically predisposed to mental instability, and, given that such individuals constitute a tiny minority out of any population, your dire warning is NOT applicable across the board, EVEN if millions of new users suddenly do embark on a weed smoking spree, in the mistaken belief that the drug will serve as a panacea cure for all ailments.

Your warning that marijuana is CERTAIN to cause psychosis is as truthful as a declaration that getting into a motorized vehicle is BOUND to result in death or injury from an accident, that swimming for exercise is BOUND to result in death by drowning, or that having an occasional glass of wine with dinner is CERTAIN to result in cirrhosis of the liver.

In other words your stern warning to weed smokers amounts to little more than fear-mongering.
