All about cannabis

The first series called 'The Sacred Plant', about the history and use of cannabis, was extremely informative.

The second series is now airing free for the next few hours. If you hop on quick you can view the episode on pain. It might help.

Please watch it if you can. It will stop any fear you may have, and help you to inform your doctor, even if it is illegal where you are.

The information that cannabis potentiates opioids, allowing you to lower your dose, is very valuable for a start.

Hi Dancer. It makes some sense when you read that since the legalisation of cannabis in Colorado, the abuse of opioids has dropped by something like 80%, a lot of it assisted with cannabis. And on the series, you hear that babies born opioid-addicted are being weaned off with CBD. It really is worth a watch.

So much is hidden from us.

I posted this series (which is free while it's on, I can't afford to buy it) on a Facebook WED Group and was kicked off completely, adios amigo.

Big Brother is watching - and just when we hear that Canada is legalising in a month or two.

The whole thing is nuts. It's just a good green veggie!

I think America has lost the plot.

Dancer, middle of the night and I've found this very informative Facebook page on Neurology and Cannabis. It gives links to all the latest news and research,

Being wakeful when the world sleeps does have a few benefits. Not many!

I've told my GP that when I can get a good steady supply of cannabis I'll not need the drugs he supply's. Roll on legalisation and finally suffering can end for thousands and thousands of people.

I'm signed up for the series, but have missed the first few episodes. They generally run a replay weekend once the series is over, so hopefully I can catch it then.

Not what you're looking for?
