Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Some people suffer from chronic, debilitating disorders for which no conventional treatment brings relief. Can marijuana ease their symptoms? Would it be breaking the law to turn to marijuana as a medication? There are few sources of objective, scientifically sound advice for people in this situation. Most books about marijuana and medicine attempt to promote the views of advocates or opponents. To fill the gap between these extremes, authors Alison Mack and Janet Joy have extracted critical findings from a recent Institute of Medicine study on this important issue, interpreting them for a general audience. Marijuana As Medicine? provides patientsâ€"as well as the people who care for themâ€"with a foundation for making decisions about their own health care. This empowering volume examines several key points, including: Whether marijuana can relieve a variety of symptoms, including pain, muscle spasticity, nausea, and appetite loss. The dangers of smoking marijuana, as well as the effects of its active chemical components on the immune system and on psychological health. The potential use of marijuana-based medications on symptoms of AIDS, cancer, multiple sclerosis, and several other specific disorders, in comparison with existing treatments. Marijuana As Medicine? introduces readers to the active compounds in marijuana. These include the principal ingredient in Marinol, a legal medication. The authors also discuss the prospects for developing other drugs derived from marijuana's active ingredients. In addition to providing an up-to-date review of the science behind the medical marijuana debate, Mack and Joy also answer common questions about the legal status of marijuana, explaining the conflict between state and federal law regarding its medical use. Intended primarily as an aid to patients and caregivers, this book objectively presents critical information so that it can be used to make responsible health care decisions. Marijuana As Medicine? will also be a valuable resource for policymakers, health care providers, patient counselors, medical faculty and studentsâ€"in short, anyone who wants to learn more about this important issue.

This book was released on 2017-03-31 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Significant changes have taken place in the policy landscape surrounding cannabis legalization, production, and use. During the past 20 years, 25 states and the District of Columbia have legalized cannabis and/or cannabidiol (a component of cannabis) for medical conditions or retail sales at the state level and 4 states have legalized both the medical and recreational use of cannabis. These landmark changes in policy have impacted cannabis use patterns and perceived levels of risk. However, despite this changing landscape, evidence regarding the short- and long-term health effects of cannabis use remains elusive. While a myriad of studies have examined cannabis use in all its various forms, often these research conclusions are not appropriately synthesized, translated for, or communicated to policy makers, health care providers, state health officials, or other stakeholders who have been charged with influencing and enacting policies, procedures, and laws related to cannabis use. Unlike other controlled substances such as alcohol or tobacco, no accepted standards for safe use or appropriate dose are available to help guide individuals as they make choices regarding the issues of if, when, where, and how to use cannabis safely and, in regard to therapeutic uses, effectively. Shifting public sentiment, conflicting and impeded scientific research, and legislative battles have fueled the debate about what, if any, harms or benefits can be attributed to the use of cannabis or its derivatives, and this lack of aggregated knowledge has broad public health implications. The Health Effects of Cannabis and Cannabinoids provides a comprehensive review of scientific evidence related to the health effects and potential therapeutic benefits of cannabis. This report provides a research agendaâ€"outlining gaps in current knowledge and opportunities for providing additional insight into these issuesâ€"that summarizes and prioritizes pressing research needs.

This book was released on 2019-01-08 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four years ago I was diagnosed with stage three colon cancer that was spreading rapidly through my body ( metastasizing). I was told unequivocally by my surgeon that I must have an operation to remove part of my colon or I would surely die. Had I agreed to the operation, I would have had to wear a colostomy bag. I refused. A friend told me about the remarkable healing effects of cannabis oil. Cannabis oil was a new thing to me but rather than have the operation I decided to follow up on my friend's advice. My family doctor who was from Iran did not hesitate to issue a medical cannabis oil license to me. he, too, had heard and seen the miraculous results of cannabis oil treating and curing cancer. I did, however, have a short bout of radiation and chemo, both of which made me very sick, The idea was to reduce the tumor so the operation could commence. It was during this period that I had been made aware of the healing powers of medical cannabis oil. My medical team opposed my every thought as to the use of cannabis oil but my inner voice told me not to heed them. In fact, they laid a good amount of pressure on me to adhere to their wishes but I refused to comply. Within two months my cancer had vanished. That was going on four years ago. I live a normal life without having to use a colostomy bag and attend endless check-ups. In fact, I hope never to have to visit a hospital again. It was all very bad and very, very sad. My book, Cannabis Oil Cured My Cancer is my story, a story of helplessness, despondency, grief, sadness, of a life, turned upside down; one that could not escape finality: cemeteries, funeral homes, hospitals--death. it was all very grave, indeed. Eventually, at the hospital, when they told me that my cancer was no more, I walked on cloud seven for weeks. How wonderful it was to be free and healthy once again. In my book, there are links to youtube addresses that will be of great benefit to the sufferer. Also, there is information about a variety of treatments and cures for cancer and other diseases. Here is a list of ailments and diseases that cannabis oil treats and cures: Cancer, Attention Deficit Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Alcohol addiction, Aids, ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), Alzheimer's, Anorexia, Antibiotic Resistance, Anxiety, Atherosclerosis, Arthritis, Asthma, Autism, Bipolar, Cancer, Chron's Disease, Digestive Issues, Depression. Diabetes, Dravet Syndrome, Doose Syndrome, Endocrine Disorders, Epilepsy and Seizures, Fibromyliga, Glaucoma, Heart Disease, Atherosclerosis, Huntington's Disease, Inflammation, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, Kidney Disease, Liver Disease, Metabolic Syndrome, Migraine, Mood Disorders, Motion Sickness, Multiple Sclerosis, Nausea, Neurodegeneration, Chronic Pain, Obesity, Obsessive Mood Disorder, Osteoporosis, Parkinson's Disease, Prion/Mad Cows Disease, PTSD, Rheumatism, Schizophrenia, Sickle Cell Anemia, Skin Conditions, Sleep Disorders, Spinal Cord Injury, Stress, Stroke and TBI.I wish you well in recuperating your health. It is also worthwhile to note that medical cannabis oil can be used even though one might be receiving chemo and radiation. It cannot harm you. it is natural and one of nature's wonder cures.Give it a try! BlessingJohn Gabriel

Dr. Grotenhermen first examines the history of marijuana as medicine, including its important role in U.S. medical practice during the 19th century. He explains the biochemistry of cannabinoids and shows how they interact with the human body, including a look at cannabinoid receptors and how cannabinoids occur naturally in the body. The author then draws on his years of experience legally treating patients in Germany as well as numerous research studies and tests to provide an in-depth guide to the many healing applications for cannabis and its derivatives. The therapeutic applications covered include the use of CBD to treat seizures, epilepsy, anxiety, several forms of cancer, muscular disorders, and psychotic states and the use of THC to treat schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s, ADHD, Tourette’s, Parkinson’s, impotence, depression, lupus, COPD, and chronic pain, among many other physical, neurological, and emotional conditions. The author examines the various cannabis-derived medications available, such as Cannabinol, Dronabinol, and Marinol, and the main methods of administering cannabis. He offers a complete discussion of safe use, possible side effects, contraindications, and precautions (including during pregnancy and chemotherapy), alongside research data that confirms cannabis as one of the least toxic substances in existence. Written by a practicing physician, this guide provides everything you need to know to use cannabinoids safely and effectively for health and healing.

Book excerpt: A practical, easy-to-understand guide how to kill your cancer with cannabis and keep yourself cancer-free Don't expect to hear this from your doctor! In 2012, the author's son Mike was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma. After three operations, including a colostomy and subsequent chemotherapy, mother and son searched for alternative treatments, but most of what they found was snake oil information--dishonest people trying to sell so-called "miracle cures" to vulnerable patients," often with fancy sales pitches. A German university's research article about cannabis cancer treatment changed Mike's life. After five months of cannabis therapy doctors confirmed that Mike was cancer free. Not being satisfied with dispensary marijuana, Mike developed his own strains, concentrating mostly on high CBD plus THC combinations. He now has generated dozens of amazingly powerful SHAROK cannabis strains for cancer treatment, but also for other diseases like epilepsy, Tourette syndrome, Parkinson's disease, MS, chronic pain management, sleep disorders, chemotherapy side effects, PTSD, etc. For three years now, mother and son have worked in cancer support groups, sharing Mike's cannabis products with fellow patients. Patients' testimonials speak of their happiness and relief about their miraculous cannabis healing.In this book you will learn about: How Mike's cannabis oil cured his own cancer and that of friends and fellow patients."This means you don't have to wade through dozens of websites, books, YouTube videos or forums.

Book excerpt: The cultural, scientific and legislative divide created by vigorous debates over the legalization of medical marijuana is giving way to a new synergy among community stakeholders across the United States. The goal is to improve access to medical marijuana for patients with refractory debilitating neurological disorders, cancer, and chronic pain as an alternative to ineffective pharmacotherapy and potentially addictive pain medications. The ultimate test of our nations resolve to ensure the welfare of our sickest patients is the enactment and implement of effective public health reform in the area of medical marijuana, also known as medical cannabis.This book evolved out of the present need for a definitive volume on the science and public health aspects of medical cannabis to fuel this national narrative. The ethnographic research presented in the concluding chapter was inspired by Professor Miriam W. Boeri and colleagues, at Bentley University in Waltham, MA. They examined views of community stakeholders including medical marijuana dispensary entrepreneurs, health care professionals, and patients in a state that legalized medical marijuana in 2013, yet there continued to be confusion and misunderstandings in the interpretation and implementation of medical marijuana guidelines during the period of policy shifts. Apparent gaps in policy development and implementation signaled the urgency for a comparison study addressing stakeholder views in New York State, where its medical marijuana program has legally dispensed the drug since 2014. The resulting pilot study was carried out in the Division of Health Policy and Management of the City University of New York School of Public Health. The research model incorporated ethnographic and grounded methodologies to detail the views of physicians, pharmacists, educators, patients, and entrepreneur stakeholders; with triangulation of data and application of dominant themes into a socioecological framework model to identify areas of public health policy reform. The findings of this study detail that New York, like other states that recently legalized the dispensation of medical marijuana, faces challenges beyond policy transparency, communication and education explicitly to improve the implementation process for applying and registering medical cannabis dispensaries, referring physicians, and qualified patient recipients.Ken Langone, Chairman of the Board of New York University Langone Health, and Steven Galetta, Chair of Neurology in the School of Medicine, where the authors is senior staff in neuroepidemiology, motivated him to pursue doctoral training in Health Policy and Management. The author has had the good fortune of interacting with thought-provoking medical students, neurology trainees, public health doctoral students, and professors who reinforce the high ethical standards in medical and public health practice and research. However, his patients still educate him in empathy and humanity. The author is grateful to his family, including his spouse Holly and sons Adam and Seth, who serve as his daily compass, encouraging him to take on projects that promote core values of medicine and humanity.
