Marijuana - The Good Side And The Bad Side. by GMan650(m): 12:41pm On Oct 08, 2015
Marijuana refers to the dried leaves, stem, flowers and seed from the hemp plant 'Cannabis Sativa'. It is used as a psychoactive drug or medicinal drug. Marijuana has caused a lot of controversies in the health sectors of different countries because it has good benefits(some that can't be gotten from any other drug) and severe negative effects.
Some of the negative effects include: liver problem, heart diseases, lungs problem, poor coordination, immune system suppression, reduction of male sex hormones, reduced sexual capacity etc.
However, the positive effects are overwhelming as they include: Treatment of glaucoma(an eye disease which causes loss of vision)
- Reversal of the carcinogenic(cancer inducing property) effect of tobacco thereby improving lung health
- Control of epileptic seizures
- Decreases symptoms of a seizure disorder called 'Dravet's Syndrome'
- Prevents cancer from spreading
- Decreases anxiety
- Slows d progression of Alzheimer's disease
- Eases the pain of multiple sclerosis
- Muscles spasms can alo be helped
- Lessens side effects from treatin Hepatitis C
- Treats inflammatory bowel diseases
- Relieves arthritis discomfort
- Keeps skinniness and helps metabolism
- Spurs creativity of the brain
- Soothes tremor for Parkinson diesases
- Helps in treating Post traumatic stress disorder
- Protects brain after stroke and from trauma and concussion
The positive effects of weed now begs the question 'What level of Marijuana is safe? According to reports from Pharmacology expert Dr. Iverson "Laboratory animals (rats, mice, dogs and monkeys) can tolerate doses of up to 1000mg/kg, this would be equivalent to a 70-kg person swallowing 70g of the drug which is 5000 times enough to cause a high. Also, often symptoms of diseases are well controlled with doses equalling 10 mg of Cannabis or less per day; sometimes one inhalation might be enough to cure some symptoms.
With these, share your views whether Marijuana should be legalised in the pharmacology (drugs) market or not and state reasons why.

BTW, I've never smoked weed my entire life before somepeople will start making comments that weed don spoil my life.

Aside the fact there is no clear evidence of efficacy of cannabis in treating the ailments listed, there are a million and one comparatively safer medicines that can effectively cure/manage those conditions.

Any perceived benefit is outweighed by the overwhelming evidence on the dnagers of marij

And most of these drugs will be quite expensive to afford for a common man and the last time I checked 'Marijuana' is affordable. Moreover, weed is a natural plant and most(if not all) drugs are made from plants so I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be used in the manufacture of drugs. About effectiveness, weed has been used to cure some of these diseases and in fact not all drugs are 100% efficient.

yeah, dude, there are a lot of researches that show that marijuana has positive effects on the human's body, however, you have to buy marijuana of a high quality, otherwise, you won't get any positive effect... For example, I've been ordering marijuana for a whole year from these guys, who are engaged in Marijuana delivery Sacramento, and, you know, I've never had problems with them, because their marijuana is of high quality that is not inferior to the one that is sold in specialised stores, and, by the way, when I ordered it the first time, I got a $ 20 discount. By the way, they have a really fast delivery (for instance they delivered marijuana for a day from Utah to California)
