  1. I love the stuff, but this guy is just a bookworm by the looks of it.
    Trichomes are the relevant parts of the plant to find the compounds, never heard of Trichromes..
    even spellcheck gives that word a red underline.

  2. I have objectively followed the Cannabis plants journey for decades now, and, based on research and trials I recognise the therapeutic health benefit it can offer both humans and animals alike. The medical world and governments, for reasons which are so obvious to the many who have their eyes open, have it classified as dangerous and harmful and thus banned it. As with anything, consequence of abuse can be horrifying. Taking alcohol for example, which is a recreationally accepted drug throughout our planet, and when abused it reeks havoc in so many ways. In reality there is very little to gain from using that product in the long run. Conversely, cannabis and its many derivatives offer real health benefits to its users, this is so because our bodies have natural cannabinoid receptors built in, ready to accept their therapeutic donations from this plant. So ask oneself this question; why is it banned? Sure, cannabis can be abused, like anything else, but with unbiased medical supervision, it offers a lifeline to those who have exhausted all other avenues to cure their ills, it's a magic bullet for so many.

  3. this guys seems longwinded, ?What is the summary of all this, i KNOW it helps arthritis and it take ALOT of dosing here in New England,,,,,,, im treating pain now. if anyone can summarize, i appreciate.

  4. Even after years of research showing that the whole is better than the constituent parts they still insist on breaking it down. It seems like this kind of research is meant to benefit Big Pharma more than the patient. With that being said this looks to be a very promising treatment.

  5. I have RA in my hip and take CBD/THC .03% in small amounts 1/2 a dropper 3 times a day, morning, noon and night and basically stay pain free. Depending on daily activities. A half a dropper full is just enough to keep me from getting high. I take nothing else for it and I don't take any other types of meds. Important to consider bc THC will block statins.

  6. Twenty years of living with the pain and permanent joint damage of Ankylosing Spondylitis was made possible by cannabis. At 63 I was a full blown raging alcoholic puking bile on a semi regular basis. Cannabis freed me and I am now a five year dry alcoholic who self medicates in a beneficial manner.
    Bless my heart
    Bless my soul
    Didn't think I'd make it to 68 years old
    There must be something, up above, saying come on old hippie, you gotta a lotta love. I've got to hold on for the dogs, the wife, the kids and my girls in the grow tent. They need me as much as I need them. Symbiosis

  7. I’ve been making my own CBD /THC oils for three years…it works great for sleeping and increasing appetite but I’ve yet to see results for my severe arthritis …
    I’ve used many strains and pure ruderalis…if I use lots I get seriously whacked ….oh that’s when the pain disappears.

  8. Why can't these videos be only 3 minutes long ? Really, I promise you, I am capable of absorbing 100% of the important information presented here in over and hour, in only 3 minutes.

  10. Medical marijuana THC kind will cure Cancer and Artritis in the oil form I know for a fact, and for a fact the CBD kind will cure help in children and adults that have epilepsy it helps to stop grand mal seizure according to certain doctors that have studed the use of marijuana, now called Cannabis so it can be sold in stores in Canada.

  11. 😷 Let’s Go Brandon…. FJB

    Marinol (dronabinol) helps with my AS (ankylosing spondylitis) and PSA (psoriatic arthritis) but gives me SEVERE anxiety and panic attack type symptoms.

  12. around the 30 minute mark he's talking about allowed alternatives to cannabis flower that are made in prescription form. He keeps talking about how expensive they are and if they're not cheaper and better then people are not going to use them. I don't understand this man's ignorance and his surprise as to why it's not being used. Well, as I said, if it's not better and cheaper then there's no reason for anybody want to continue to use it. It has to be better and it has to be cheaper but if it's not both Better AND cheaper then it absolutely will not sell.!!!
    It takes a really thick-headed extremely ignorant person to not realize that. It has to be both cheaper and better to sell but obviously we have these extremely ignorant people that keep asking this extremely disgustingly ignorant question.

  13. I speak as a doctor totally committed to helping medical cannabis needy patients. The health department should be ashamed of itself for its totally inadequate Medical Cannabis laws and the failure of patients ability to get access to adequate supplies of CBD and THC in therapeutic quantities at an affordable price. Stop listening to the opposition of the greedy and selfish big pharma companies, alcohol and tobacco companies who cannot cope with how effective and totally safe that it is. We have innumerable patients who desperately need adequate quantities of the drug for upfront treatment in effective quantities. Medical cannabis is totally safe and should be easily obtainable via your regular GP with no delay or limit or at a regular Cannabis Speciality Clinic, and on the PHS so it is affordable. Politicians, get the laws updated effectively and quickly or admit you are not a part of a truly democratic parliamentary system. The people want effectively unfettered access and so do most police officers who see the benefits alongside and in contrast to the drama of unfettered alcohol access. Appropriate cannabis access would save multiple billions in healthcare dollar terms.

  14. Fwiw i think there is a connection between terpenes and RA. I find with CBD flower. The more sweeter. Varieties such as cherry wine . seem to provide the best relief. Generally a corncob pipe smokes it adequately and its a eco sustainable pipe to make .. Medical marijuana in ohio is for the more wealthy . the card is very expensive here so is the dispensary. Yet on the street marijuana is about $200 an ounce here
