Thread: Ganja

Every medic I've ever come across agrees vehemently that ganja is a great medicine.

It is.

Millions of cannabinoid receptors in the human body that respond only to ganja.

Reason it's not legal is that it can't be patented.

How many medics have you come on?

<the crowd goes wild>

It's an awesome painkiller, I can attest to that.

Not the only reason though...

Some States in the U.S.A have legalised and the revenue gathered is used to fund, repairs of pot holes in roads, health services, and schools.

It's more reliable than many anti-convulsant epilepsy drugs

And you can any qualified doctor. (don't ask the pharmacist at your local Thai pharmacy though)

I grow my own. Now that auto-flowering varieties are easily available growing your own has become so simple that anybody can do it with any special equipment. Modern varieties are also so potent that even if you take very little care of the growing plant you still end up with something worth ingesting.

Good on you Bob.
You know the score.
Respect.

Potheads; the most anti social fuckers there are, bar smack heads.

My brother was a paranoid schizophrenic after years of skunk abuse.

try telling your bullshit to that guy who is brain dead after the recent cannabinoid trials.

I accept your first two points but your last one is bullshit.

Sativa in the morning, Indica at night.

Everything in moderation as they say.
A friend of my Uncles sister in law knew a Martian that ate nothing but carrots and he could shoot the eye out of a jet pilot breaking the sound barrier at 20,000 metres.
It was going so well until he was overly impaled by a joystick.
Everything in moderation.

FFS do you have a drink? Are you an alcoholic?
It's a bit like that.
Not everyone who enjoys a smoke is 'pothead' (
Grow up.

The real problem is canabis is that its a mix of compounds which contradictory effects you have THC which is psychoactive and can cause mental health issues and you have CBD which is a decent anti-psychotic. The problem is that for the last 40 years or so the breeders have been selecting for THC and this comes at the expense of CBD production.... the skunk varieties

You can see the easy trap where someoneand other issues. Associate this effect with the allegedly pleasent effects of THC and they might be tempted to start going for the skunk varieties. Thus start to take a canabis that is not only missing the drug they are self medicating with, but contains enhanced levels of a drug with will make their condition worse.

Would it not be better to simply take the drug you need rather than the mix containing drugs with the polar opposite effect to the one you want?

Thats whats going on in the UK, creating canibis extracts containing a subset of the compounds needed to product the desired outcome. CBD without the THC.

Canabis is a lot more complex that many what it to be, hence the bollocks spouted by the zealots on both sides of the fence.

What a load of utter SHITE.

Just for one thing, no one smokes a joint to 'self medicate to alleviate their psychosis'.
What planet do you live on FFS?

planet earth, not sure which planet you live on.... at a guess planet wishful thinking

but whatever, you are good example of the complete bollocks that comes out of believing what you like to be true is true. Its why lifes fuckups seem to happen to you more often than to others.

Riiiiight. "Only", eh ?


And Cujo : I think there is a lot of sense in what Hazz is saying.

Used to be a great opium den in soi 18..ish

Completely wrong. Go do a search for endocannabinoids.

Do I sense a hint of skepticism?


From Wiki: (for starters)

Cannabinoid receptors are activated by three major groups of ligands: endocannabinoids, produced by the mammillary body; plant cannabinoids (such as Cannabidiol, produced by the cannabis plant); and synthetic cannabinoids (such as HU-210)

So they are activated by 3 things.

1: Self activated (mammillary)
2: Activated by plant cannabinoids (GANJA)
3: Activated by synthetic cannabinoids (FAKE GANJA)

So please Nidhog - explain how I am "completely wrong" if you don't mind

P.S I Have a PHD in this shit

You said "Millions of cannabinoid receptors in the human body that respond only to ganja" (my underlining).

That is completely wrong. They do not only responds to ganja. They are receptors for a normal body chemical.
