Medical Use

Govie pukes give me a migraine... think I'll medicate, as my American Indian brother in law calls it just before we get bonged up. Hey! Tired of being a reefer grower and getting all that fake shit the federal gov of the USA passes out for information on pot? Why not try the unfettered/lesser fettered science from other nations?

The finding is based on work with mice designed to carry human cancer tumors, as well as from an analysis of THC's impact on tumor cells extracted from two patients coping with a highly aggressive form of brain cancer. Explaining that the introduction of THC into the brain triggers a cellular self-digestion process known as "autophagy," study co-author Guillermo Velasco said his team has isolated the specific pathway by which this process unfolds, and noted that it appears "to kill cancer cells, while it does not affect normal cells." Velasco is with the department of biochemistry and molecular biology in the School of Biology at Complutense University in Madrid. The findings were published in the April issue of The Journal of Clinical Investigation. The Spanish researchers focused on two patients suffering from "recurrent glioblastoma multiforme," a fast-moving form of brain cancer. Both patients had been enrolled in a clinical trial designed to test THC's potential as a cancer therapy. Using electron microscopes to analyze brain tissue taken both before and after a 26- to 30-day THC treatment regimen, the researchers found that THC eliminated cancer cells while it left healthy cells intact. The team also was able, in what it described as a "novel" discovery, to track the signaling route by which this process was activated. These findings were replicated in work with mice, which had been "engineered" to carry three different types of human cancer tumor grafts. "These results may help to design new cancer therapies based on the use of medicines containing the active principle of marijuana and/or in the activation of autophagy," Velasco said. Outside experts suggested that more research is needed before advocating marijuana as a medicinal intervention for brain cancer. Dr. John S. Yu, co-director of the Comprehensive Brain Tumor Program in the Maxine Dunitz Neurosurgical Institute at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, said the findings were "not surprising." "There have been previous reports to this effect as well," he said. "So this is yet another indication that THC has an anti-cancer effect, which means it's certainly worth further study. But it does not suggest that one should jump at marijuana for a potential cure for cancer, and one should not urge anyone to start smoking pot right away as a means of curing their own cancer." But that's exactly what many brain cancer patients have been doing, said Dr. Paul Graham Fisher, the Beirne Family director of Neuro-Oncology at Stanford University. "In fact, 40 percent of brain tumor patients in the U.S. are already using alternative treatments, ranging from herbals to vitamins to marijuana," he said. "But that actually points out a cautionary tale here, which is that many brain cancer patients are already rolling a joint to treat themselves, but we're not really seeing brain tumors suddenly going away as a result, which we clearly would've noticed if it had that effect. So we need to be open-minded. But this suggests that the promise of THC might be a little over-hoped, and certainly requires further investigation before telling people to go out and roll a joint."

I mentioned the crap about my daughter, but there was a very serious book that put me onto what was happening to me and then my little girl.  The Power To Harm   by John Cornwell. Thank you, John. You probably saved my life because I doubt I could have survived without your investigative research. It is the story of Joe Westerbeck who was a very hard worker and took prozac... and it made him plan and then kill a whole bunch of people he used to work with. And the outfit that makes it? Oh, they got off. You know, away with the most horrifying evil shit that makes tons of money for them. The top ten stocks are making as much money as the rest of the other 90% The top ten stocks are pharmaceutical corporations. I'll take the pot.
   
May I just tell you all I never expected this much vindication about pot being good for our health as I have just flooding in. I mean, I knew of many of the organizations that support legalized medical and recreational marijuana smoking by adults, but this? http://health.msn.com/health-topics/articlepage.aspx?cp-documentid=100230518&page=1  This is friggin' MSN saying this stuff!! We are winning folks. It is getting impossible to deny our vote power and we are winning. Senator Haaarr-kiin? Where is that self preserving brain gone to? Oh, you forgot, did you? ha ha. no, that guy knows how to look out for old number one no matter how much agony we dumb voters go through for him. Hey, here's some quotes from the article for you guys in too much of a toot to go look it up: new research suggests that one of the active ingredients in marijuana—THC—and similar compounds could possibly prevent or even reverse one of the most devastating memory disorders of all: Alzheimer's disease. In a paper published in the December 2008 issue of the journal Neurobiology of Aging, researchers found that a compound that affects the same brain receptors as THC reduced brain inflammation...  WIN-55,212-2 compound promotes the growth of new brain cells—a process that declines and may even stop in older animals. "The most amazing thing we saw was that it re-initiates neurogenesis—usually, the only drugs that do that are the SSRI antidepressants [selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors, the class of drugs that includes Prozac]."  you know, prozac that makes peeps plan then take their machine guns to the old job site and murder ten or more people? what? you didn't know that? did you just not believe old SuckMeBush? Weell, it's not that I don't blame you, but I just told you the truth. The truth about pot stopping progressive brain damage and the truth about SSRI's killing LOTS of people. Do you take paxil, effexor, prozac? oh, my. Why am I pissed? Because I love you and this exact set of drugs was proven to be the murder weapon used on my eleven year old daughter in a serious jury trial. Drug companies make the most money of all stocks. They cheerfully heave little girls into the furnace for their money. I hold her mommy and we still bleed over it if you ever wonder why I get so unpleasant to be around. But, check it out! We pot smoker/growers are not like the straight guys who tell you what is normal. Nope. We pot smokers don't go for the death penalty even when it sure looks like the right idea. So, Senator Harkin, police who beat their wives, and you who are considering worse... smoke some of that mellow herb and just chill. We don't want to own you a bit. 
   
Dear SMB: Thank you for contacting me.  I am always glad to hear from you. I appreciate hearing your views concerning the medicinal use of marijuana. As you may know, while marijuana remains an illegal drug at the Federal level, nine states currently allow marijuana to be used by patients suffering from certain medical conditions.  The Bush Administration, however, has made clear that it intends to continue to enforce existing Federal criminal penalties attached to marijuana-related activities, and that it will not recognize any medical-use exception, even in states where such exceptions have been enacted. I generally support the vigorous enforcement of Federal drug laws. But it is my understanding that there is evidence to suggest that marijuana may be effective at delivering medicinal benefits in some circumstances - benefits which may outweigh risks associated with prescribed use in such cases. Certainly we should explore reasonable ways to relieve pain suffered by people with chronic and terminal illnesses, and I support the idea of conducting research into whether medicinal marijuana can serve this or other medical purposes. The Food and Drug Administration has already approved a drug called Marinol, a synthetic form of the active ingredient in marijuana. Again, thanks for sharing your views with me.  Please don't hesitate to let me know how you feel on any issue that concerns you. Sincerely, Tom Harkin United States Senator Well, Senator, you Should be thanking me because I have to drag myself accross your ignorence and the bigoted, hatefull bullshit in your heart as reflected in your poorly composed letter so full of misrepresentation and falsehood. We Iowans pay this drug warrior more in a day than you probably make in a month, especially if we consider his kickbacks and so forth from his pharmaceutical buds we don't hear about so much. What nine states have approved medical marijuana, Senator? Would it help to make up your violent mind if I corrected your figures to current day values? We have twelve states here in America that have legalized medical marijuana in the face of that violent, lying son of a bitch Geo W Bush and all the rest of the war criminals just like him in order to have an effective United States. Just how old is the form letter you paraphrased this weak, ineffective letter to me??? We need to end the hate as soon as possible, Senator. It was never based on the truth and it has no capacity to help us what with slavery being called the fix to smoking reefers. Your violence is the problem here, not cannabis. That is why my user name is SuckMeBush! I just plain don't get you people respecting us because you have substituted "managing us" in place of understanding and representing us. TH/twh
   
What? You thought the title was about something new??? Nah! All the time the dea pukes have been arresting people because they were injesting or possessing something that "has no medical value" the dea pukes were completely aware of the following:

US Government Patents Medical Pot http://blog.norml.org/2008/07/03/us-government-patents-medical-pot/ 

July 3rd, 2008 By: Paul Armentano, NORML Deputy Director

 

The extent of the federal government's hypocrisy on the issue of medicinal cannabis truly knows no bounds. Don't believe me? Just click http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/6630507/fulltext.html   (Thanks to Huffington Post blogger Brinna for the link.) http://www.huffingtonpost.com/   US Patent 7730507 - Cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/6630507.html   Application: filed on 2/02/2001   US Patent Issued on October 7, 2003   Assignee: The United States of America, as represented by the Department of Health and Human Services     And there you have it. The same federal government that steadfastly denies pot has any medicinal value also holds the medical patents on the plant's various therapeutic cannabinoids. And they aren't the only ones who do.

NORML podcaster Russ Belville and I will be discussing this issue in depth — as well as the related issue of whether or not Big Pharma is behind the prohibition of pot — on the Daily Audio Stash next week. http://stash.norml.org/ 

you duplicitous, lying slave masters! the prohibition against pot here in America has got to be the worst federal scandle since the institution of slavery in America. We knew better, but hey! slavery is in the bible so how wrong can it be? you murdering slave master liars! Is that ol' suckmeBush on a rant again? how can I be ranting when the cops, in the name of protecting us, murder little old ladies in their night gowns by shooting her over twenty times with hand cannons while shooting each other all to hell at the same time all because there was a mistake on the warrent and the cops kicked in the door of a completely innocent little old lady that they then murdered. Oh, hell, no.

Go read the Marijuana News I posted on this. dea wankers, you are righteously dispised by the God fearing of America. End your constitution trampling NOW! Your enslavement is far worse than the problem we were hoping to fix. Now the dea is the problem far worse than the marijuana ever was!

We need cops for the hard drugs, but with 90+% of the drug money going to interdict marijuana we have cops doing foolishness. Why, it's as if the lawyers and cops thought they were doctors and patients, and then we have enslavement fixing this.

Aliens orbiting over head must think we are still in the stone age with this sort of failed leadership.

Don't believe in aliens dea turds? smoke pot and you can hear them... NOT! you do not see pink elephants on pot! it is totally different than such foolishness you idiots must keep telling each other it does.

Can I break it clear down for them, folks? dea? legalize soft drugs so the hard drugs go out of favor. This is a very repeatedly proven assertion. And Please restore the dignity you have fucked off regarding our respect for the law based on law having the good of the people in mind like we used to.

   
I have posted this @ Marijuana News when it first came out, it is becoming bigger news and is so wonderful that, having seen this blog affirming my post, I present it to you in another format, our humble blog. Spider62 posted up a video: Run From Their Cure in the video section of Canadian peeps. we love you Canandian patriots and heros who dare the moronic fools and their hideous prohibition of adult who decend to school yard bully tactics on all of us grower/tokers. I say this because a) I will rant your socks off to wake you up! and b) because the Canadians have been world leaders in health concerns utilizing cannabis like it will some happy day in the future be used like... vitamins in the morning with the coffee by everyone in the world. The following is a fine, if early days, example:

Cannabis compound cannabidiol CBD 'halts cancer' & may bring relive to other illness's

cannabis plant

The CBD compound found in cannabis is non-toxic

A compound found in cannabis 'CBD' may stop breast cancer spreading throughout the body, US scientists believe.

           ONLINEPOT NEWS REPORT EXPOSE' "Virgin Olive Oil" She is not a virgin anymore.  LOL Chris/OLP The California Pacific Medical Center Research Institute team are hopeful that cannabidiol or CBD could be a non-toxic alternative to chemotherapy. Unlike cannabis, CBD does not have any psychoactive properties so its use would not violate laws, Molecular Cancer Therapeutics reports. The authors stressed that they were not suggesting patients smoke marijuana. They added that it would be highly unlikely that effective concentrations of CBD could be reached by smoking cannabis.

This compound offers the hope of a non-toxic therapy that could achieve the same results without any of the painful side effects

Lead researcher Dr Sean McAllister

CBD works by blocking the activity of a gene called Id-1 which is believed to be responsible for the aggressive spread of cancer cells away from the original tumour site - a process called metastasis. Past work has shown CBD can block aggressive human brain cancers. The latest work found CBD appeared to have a similar effect on breast cancer cells in the lab. Future hope Lead researcher Dr Sean McAllister said: "Right now we have a limited range of options in treating aggressive forms of cancer. "Those treatments, such as chemotherapy, can be effective but they can also be extremely toxic and difficult for patients. "This compound offers the hope of a non-toxic therapy that could achieve the same results without any of the painful side effects." Dr Joanna Owens of Cancer Research UK said: "This research is at a very early stage. "The findings will need to be followed up with clinical trials in humans to see if the CBD is safe, and whether the beneficial effects can be replicated. "Several cancer drugs based on plant chemicals are already used widely, such as vincristine - which is derived from a type of flower called Madagascar Periwinkle and is used to treat breast and lung cancer. It will be interesting to see whether CBD will join them." Maria Leadbeater of Breast Cancer Care said: "Many people experience side-effects while having chemotherapy, such as nausea and an increased risk of infection, which can take both a physical and emotional toll. "Any drug that has fewer side-effects will, of course, be of great interest." But she added: "It is clear that much more research needs to be carried out." http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/7098340.stm

  CBD OIL IS NOW AVAILABLE ONLINE

Meet your own underground med MMJ in Canada on  the Internet. I have made the CBD for the British MS patients. And the olive oil which is very easy to use. I use 10 grams per bottle and the Canadian clubs swear by it in their cooking. This CBD does not have the terrible taste when used in cooking recipes. like you get when you use “Canna Butter”. Once they started using it we heard a lot of misdiagnosed cancer stories. I have a 80% reorder rate from cancer and MS patients. They use it for pain. 7-27-08        Contact me at sunny123@hush.com God Bless Your Garden!
