Should marijuana be legal for medical purposes?
I have a friend with MS ( Multiple Scelrosis). Is is wrong for her to smoke pot to ease the cramps and the pain?
Best answer:
in many parts of mexico its still used today by curanderos in herbal medicine... its used to treat nausea after chemotherapy, as an anticonvulsant, an analgesic, an asthma treatment (yes! pot dialates bronchioles) for glaucoma, tumor inhibitor for lung cancer, an antibacterial agent, and to increase peripheral vasodialation...and thats just the ones that have been proven in the lab.
first mention of pot as medicine was in the Chinese Emperor's Pharmacopoeia 3000 years ago.
folk uses: treatment for beri beri, gout, constipation, absent mindedness (?), gonorrhea, chest pain, choking, insomnia, neuralgia, painful rheumatism, gastrointestinal disorders, cholera, tetanus, epilepsy, strychnine poisoning, acute bronchitis, whooping cough, asthma, impending abortion, weak contractions, and as a mild sedative.
ps the effects/side effects have been well documented for 3000 yrs...
wonder what theyll be saying about zoloft, zyprexa, and the like 3000 yrs from now...?
