everything from baby teething drops - to horse liniment - to a Successful treatment for Alcohol and Opium Addictions.(Cannabis is a Gateway Out of Drug Addictions)...to Asthma treatment-They accidently discovered when trying to prove smoked cannabis Causes lung cancer, THC causes Apoptosis with cancer tumors. Apparently oxygen rich blood is blocked from reaching and feeding a tumor by THC-causing the tumor to consume itself trying to survive and Shrinks!
The govt, in 1974 understood the cancer fighting benefits of cannabis--and hid the report. I wonder why.
If we had unbiased Research? We'd likely find a Lot more treatments and uses for it. And we can cheaply produce it in our own back-yards--which, I suspect, is Why Big Pharma fights it so hard. Lots of other corporate benefits are threatened as well, but I suspect--pharma has the most Profit to lose.
