More and more states are legalizing marijuana. People believe marijuana has a lot of health benefits. Scientific researchers found out that it is not a harmful plant, but a total opposite.
Marijuana is very beneficial for physical and mental health. Smoking is a harmful way of ingesting it, but oil and "edibles" have most health benefits. This is about "cannabis Sativa" oil. There is also hemp (industrial marijuana) oil that is legal yet really physically healthy. Cannabis sativa oil works wonders for dangerous illnesses. Chemicals of the plant THC and CBD are most beneficial. This plant treats illnesses like:
Glaucoma - it increases eye pressure, damaging the optic nerve and causes loss of vision. Effects of the drug are lowering of the eye pressure and it slows the progression of the illness.
When smoked, marijuana increases lung capacity because of taking big breaths.
Preventing seizures - it is proven that the plant, taken in the right dosage and regularly, may help totally prevent epileptic seizures.
Cancer - it is the worst illness and not totally treatable,making it a real killer. Chemotherapy is a harmful way of treating it, but is only available
right now legally in many states. Cannabis sativa oil is legal in some states,but in some, it is decriminalized or totally illegal. CBD and THC found in marijuana may prevent cancer spreading and totally cure the illness.
Pain - Marijuana is proven to work as an anti-pain medicine making it great for people who take lots of prescription medication to kill the pain, and that only causes addiction and health problems, where Cannabis is really beneficial and natural.
Anxiety - This very healthy natural alternative medicine can help people with anxiety. But only high content CBD strains of marijuana, because a lot of THC can lead to anxiety and panic attacks. People who have problems with anxiety and panic attacks often get prescribed benzodiazepine kinds of medicine like Xanax, Valium, Clonazepam and others. These are highly addictive chemicals that can cause health problems if taken for a long amount of time.
Alzheimer's disease is a disease that causes symptoms like memory loss, confusion, difficulties in completing normal house chores, problems with speaking and changes in mood and personality. THC in marijuana is proven to slow down the formation of plaques by blocking the enzyme in the brain that produces them. Plaques kill brain cells and cause Alzheimer's disease.
Muscle spasms - for some people, medicine for muscle spasms are a need but for some, they just don't work. Marijuana is a substitute for these dangerous medicines and helps for muscle spasm attacks.
Ingesting marijuana calms the attacks almost immediately, as it calms the muscles.
It helps with Hepatitis C side effects - treatment for Hepatitis C has some really bad side effects like - fatigue, nausea, loss of appetite and depression. It helps with treating the disease, 40% more patients responded better when oil was ingested.
Consumers of marijuana are skinny - the study showed that marijuana helps a person to have healthier metabolism and different reaction when sugar is processed in the body. It lowers the levels of insulin in the body when taken regularly.
Marijuana has the ability to help patients that had a stroke-Research from the University of Nottingham discovered that marijuana can protect the brain from damage caused by a recent stroke. It reduces the size of the area of the brain that has been affected by a stroke.
Alcoholism - Marijuana may help people suffering from excessive alcohol drinking. Alcohol addiction is connected with endocannabinoid system in the brain and because of that some researchers think that marijuana may help people reduce or stop alcohol consumption.
The marijuana plant also has lots of other medical benefits. It is really a good plant for general health and I think everyone should be able to buy the medicine from the pharmacy if a doctor prescribes it.
You speak the truth.
Let's hope we will once stop being sheep and start thinking with our heads.

Not all people have bank account and many dispensaries have this same problem. This is something that will help you to buy cannabis from legal dispensaries.

This cryptocurrency has made it possible for dispensaries to accept more than only cash because banks are afraid to do business with cannabis industry.
