The subject of autism and its causes is getting more attention due to the documentary Vaxxed. It’s like a continual road show going from city to city with its crew of key personnel conducting panel discussions after showings.

That’s great and sorely needed. But there’s little awareness promoted for treating autism among the vaccine damaged. The Cannabis Summit revealed several medical practitioners of different stripes who are willing and able to use cannabis in their practices.

Of the 16 states that allow medical marijuana, there is only one state that recognizes autism as a qualifying condition for granting the use of medical cannabis, Delaware. One who has an autistic child has to offer whatever other medical symptoms are part of the child’s misery.

There are other co-morbid conditions, or chronic maladies that accompany autism. Some of them do fall under conditions that allow cannabis treatments: Seizures, Crohn’s disease, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), nerve damage, neuropathy, chronic pain, or occasionally in some states “any debilitating condition that a physician determines as wholly disabling.”

You can look over your state’s approved medically qualifying conditions for using cannabis medicinally after scrolling down a tad on this site. (Source.)

Washington State and Colorado have paved the way for legalizing cannabis completely and regulating its sales for tax profits. In their cases and among other states following their examples, one needn’t bother with qualifying for a medical marijuana card regardless of what is ailing them. The hoops and red tape won’t be there.
How Would Cannabis Be Beneficial for Autism?

Two women with autistic children, Amy Lou Fawell and Thalia Michelle from not cannabis friendly Texas, were also on the Cannabis Summit.

They are the mothers of autistic children who have researched and discovered that autistic children who don’t respond to conventional or nutritional therapies respond well with cannabis, however parents manage to get it.

As co-founders of MAMMA, (Mothers Advocating Medical Marijuana for Autism) they are on a campaign to get autism on the books as a legitimate disorder for cannabis treatments wherever medical marijuana is legal.

According to them, the resistance to their agenda is the mindset that autism is a psychological or behavioral malady, not medical, and cannabis would just create more mental disturbance and inappropriate behavior.

The DSM-5, the latest psychiatric manual for diagnosis of mental diseases states within their version of autism: “The symptoms are not attributable to another medical or neurological condition.” [1] And the CDC simply parrots the DSM-5’s observable behavioral patterns. [2]
A Doctor Who Sees the Potential of Cannabis for Healing Autism

The ladies of MAMMA may be pleased to know that another guest interviewed among the 29 during the four day Cannabis Summit, Dr. Christian Bogner, M.D., is doing his best to get the state of Michigan to include autism among its medical conditions that allows cannabis use.

Dr. Bogner attributes the epidemic rise in autism to Monsanto’s proliferation of glyphosate in the environment, the preponderance of free glutamates such as MSG in processed foods, and vaccines, which often also contain MSG.

Dr. Bogner was interviewed under the Cannabis Summit topic “New Frontier on Autism Spectrum Disorder Recovery: Medical Marijuana.”

Dr. Bogner’s 10 year old son is autistic. But he avoided the conventional toxic interventions and decided to attempt holistic and dietary approaches that often have positive effects on autistic children. Eventually he looked into cannabis’ potential.

Dr. Bogner discovered through contemporary literature that cannabis has an impact on reversing autism. He has also observed dramatic clinical results, with the example of a Michigan autistic child who was allowed treatments with cannabis oil for his epileptic seizures.
Naturally Healing All Cancers With Hemp Oil

That specific condition allowed the child’s mother to use cannabis since autism isn’t considered a proper condition for cannabis use by those who control the medical cannabis bureaucracies. Of course it worked on his seizures.

And after three years of using the cannabis oil the non-speaking child began to speak again. His other autistic symptoms also greatly decreased. Serendipitously, this remarkable reversal occurred around the time Michigan legislators were considering autism as a qualifying disease for a medical marijuana permit or card.

Dr. Bogner goes into interesting details and connections regarding how the three environmental factors he had mentioned earlier combine to create a massive trigger of autism. He points out how excess glutamate intake overstimulates brain cells and creates inflammation, and cannabis is very effective at quelling the inflammation.

He explains the neurological mechanics of cannabis. “It’s not just about getting the kid high to calm him down,” he mentioned. There are different cannabis combinations, but the one he has seen with the greatest success is a 51.2% THC, 14.3% CBD blend called RSO-4.

It’s easy to assume RSO stands for Rick Simpson Oil. He was the first to use cannabis oil successfully for serious conditions, including cancer, in his Nova Scotia, Canada town. He did so at first to cure his own skin cancer and resolve his extreme chronic post concussion symptoms. Then he shared his cannabis oil with others whose conditions were failed by conventional medicine.

Dr. Bogner highlights features of a 2003 U.S. Health and Human Services 26 page study that asserts cannabinoids are neuroprotective and have unique antioxidant properties that nullify glutamate receptors.

They were looking to patent a form of cannabis as a new antioxidant. This government research also acknowledged how cannabis protects the brain against ischemic and inflammatory conditions as well as neurotoxicity from excess glutamate.

Ischemia is a shortage of blood flowing due to constricted blood vessels. The late Dr. Andrew Moulden was very big on ischemic brain damage among vaccine injured autism spectrum children, a spectrum which covers everything from ADD and ADHD to total no-communication and complete developmental regression.

Dr. Moulden had many brain scans performed to scientifically prove that vaccines cause ischemic mini-strokes through microvascular damage in the brain.

He was also able to determine tell-tale facial stroke markers among vaccine injured children and compared them to typical facial and eye markers among stroke victims. The vaccine damaged children’s facial markers were often less conspicuous than major stroke victims’ facial manifestations, thus usually unnoticed. [3]

Many medical, nutritional, and cannabis legal experts were interviewed in Cannabis Summit interviews. But Dr. Bogner was the only one whose focus and experience is with cannabis for autism.

He points out that once the proper balance of CBD and THC is ascertained for whatever level a child is stuck in the autism spectrum, the brain’s inflammation subsides and the child’s brain is “no longer on fire, now he can learn.”

He expresses amazement with how noticeable improvements are swift with cannabis and without adverse side effects. Keep in mind that autism is also often accompanied by the gut on fire with inflammation.

So gut inflammation is another road to explore for medical marijuana card status for an autistic child. This is what Dr. Andrew Wakefield, co-producer and director of the documentary Vaxxed, discovered clinically and reported during the 1990s regarding a dozen autistic children with serious, painful gut inflammations whose parents explained they were fine until their MMR vaccinations.

The rest is history. We can thank Dr. Wakefield for withstanding “the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune” and bringing the autism vaccine connection to greater public awareness. And we can thank the people who have presented the Cannabis Summit to explore the many medical applications of cannabis, the legal complications involved, and unfolding future prospects of healing with cannabis.

Andrew Katelaris dr cannabisHis actual name is Andrew Katelaris, and he was trained as an MD in Austrialia. But he was “deregistered” from mainstream medical practice because of his incessant inquiry into the medical properties of cannabis. Now he provides quality CBD to families with brain damaged children who are overwhelmed by seizures.

And he has been doing this for over 20 years despite medical cannabis is not being allowed at all in Australia. Andrew asserts, “This is a pharmaco-fascist state we live in… It’s child abuse what’s going on, I mean, what civilized country refuses to treat children with one of the safest medicines known to man?” And, “When the law is unjust, resistance is mandatory”.

Andrew also explains, “I’ve had to charge into the unknown with drug interactions, but we’ve had no adverse reactions yet, and not one family that has gone on cannabis with us has asked to come off it, although it doesn’t work for everyone. It’s a fascinatingly complex plant, we’re only just beginning to scratch around the surface in terms of its medical possibilities.” [emphasis added]

We are fortunate several individual states, around half at last count, have ignored our national government’s schedule I classification of marijuana, which labels it as having no medical merit, dangerous, and addictive. Meanwhile other more dangerous pharmaceutical drugs are scheduled with less restrictions that the legal pharmaceutical drug pushers can administer or prescribe.

But will Congress decide to move cannabis into a less restrictive category after meetings in June of 2016? Rumor has it as of this writing that they met and it hasn’t happened. This mid-east nation, often justifiably criticized for it’s extremely militant apartheid, has led the way with medical cannabis applications.

Two USA states, Washington and Colorado, have opened the doors wide open to allow cannabis for any reason. That’s the way it should be everywhere. Even used “recreationally”, it has medical merits. As a treatment for any type of mental or emotional disorder, it’s safer and more effective than anything Big Pharma pushes.

That’s part of the problem, part of the reason Big Pharma’s vaccination campaign is being enforced by laws. Eventually, that’s all they’ll have left as cannabis replaces so called modern medicine with its wide variety of applications.

The tipping point of medical cannabis legalization has been reached. The last round of medical fascism resistance will be with vaccines.

Apparently the left hand of this government doesn’t know what the right hand is doing, or more likely doesn’t want to know. With the easy prey of grabbing marijuana users in most states and locking them up in prisons for cheap labor while destroying families, there’s little motivation to curb that racket by dropping marijuana out of its DEA Schedule 1 Controlled Substance rating.

its budgetary funding and the FDA prefers rubber stamp approving pharmaceutical drugs that are far more dangerous than marijuana and far less effective. The FDA has to oblige their corporate clients to keep their licensure payments from Big Pharma rolling in.

The unpublicized studies that prove cannabis’s medical merits are referenced within the NCI (National Cancer Institute). Though they are pre-utical drugs to enhance chemo or suppress some of chemotherapy’s terrible side effects, there are many, many actual case histories of curing cancers with cannabis.

Of course those are dismissed as anecdotal and not paid any attention by government agencies and the mainstream media. People who are cured by cannabis doesn’t satisfy medical “science”. It has to have a chance to disprove it and carry on with business as usual.

Nevertheless, the following list is excerpted directly from one of the NCI Question and Answer pages about cannabis:
THEIR REPORT ON CANNABIS ANTITUMOR ACTIVITY

Studies in mice and rats have shown that cannabinoids may inhibit tumor growth by causing cell death, blocking cell growth, and blocking the development of blood vessels needed by tumors to grow. Laboratory and animal studies have shown that cannabinoids may be able to kill cancer cells while protecting normal cells.

–A study in mice showed that cannabinoids may protect against inflammation of the colon and may have potential in reducing the risk of colon cancer, and possibly in its treatment.

–A laboratory study of delta-9-THC in hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) cells showed that it damaged or killed the cancer cells. The same study of delta-9-THC in mouse models of liver cancer showed that it had antitumor effects. Delta-9-THC has been shown to cause these effects by acting on molecules that may also be found in non-small cell lung cancer cells and breast cancer cells.

–A laboratory study of cannabidiol (CBD) in estrogen receptor positive and estrogen receptor negative breast cancer cells showed that it caused cancer cell death while having little effect on normal breast cells. Studies in mouse models of metastatic breast cancer showed that cannabinoids may lessen the growth, number, and spread of tumors.

–A laboratory study of cannabidiol (CBD) in human glioma cells showed that when given along with chemotherapy, CBD may make chemotherapy more effective and increase cancer cell death without harming normal cells. Studies in mouse models of cancer showed that CBD together with delta-9-THC may make chemotherapy such as temozolomide more effective.
STIMULATING CANCER PATIENTS APPETITE

–Many animal studies have shown that delta-9-THC and other cannabinoids stimulate appetite and can increase food intake.
PAIN RELIEF

–Cannabinoid receptors (molecules that bind cannabinoids) have been studied in the brain, spinal cord, and nerve endings throughout the body to understand their roles in pain relief.

–Cannabinoids have been studied for anti-inflammatory effects that may play a role in pain relief.

End of excerpt from NCI, the “government’s primary cancer research agency”. Paradoxically, another government agency that’s supposed to protect us, the FDA, has recently approved the most dangerous painkiller Oxycontin for 11 year old children. Oxycontin is synthetic heroine, very addictive.

Then there are the synthetic speed drugs like Ritalin that are approved for children under five years of age. Both of them mask symptoms while ruining health.

But of course, those drugs are not Schedule I. They all have “accepted” medical merit, approved by the FDA and prescribed by MDs, the official drug pushers. Evidently the studies listed by the NCI don’t indicate medical merit, but less effective, side-effect-laden synthetic derivatives of cannabis that Big Pharma creates are FDA approved – Ka-ching!

And of course, also ignored are the several animal and human trials conducted on cannabis for various diseases, including cancer, in Spain and Israel. You can go to this PubMed site  and do a search for cannabis or marijuana and find several favorable cannabis studies.

Where’s the mainstream media with all this? Honoring their cash flow from Big Pharma’s advertising vast budget with silence, I suspect.

Cannabis in Indian Culture
Cannabis (also called Indian hemp and marijuana) has played an integral part
in shaping many aspects of Indian society for its entheogenic and its religious
or cultural aspects. According to the books of the Vedas (compiled between
2000 and 1400 BC), cannabis was considered to be one of the five sacred
plants. It was believed that the guardian angels lived in its leaves, and it was
referred to as a source of happiness and liberation as well as a means to
relieve anxiety. In fact, according to Hinduism, Shiva—one of the primary
forms of God—was the one who created hashish, a compressed preparation of
cannabis resin.
Even today, a drink made out of cannabis, opium and various nuts and
spices like almonds, pistachios, poppy seeds, pepper, ginger and sugar,
popularly known as bhang, is famous in Hindu society. Although the drink was
initially said to have been designed to take one closer to the divine power or
cosmic oneness, bhang has also been reported to be used for recreational
purposes. In southern India, there have been reports of bhang being rolled
into small balls and eaten as well. It is said that charas, one of the strongest
forms of hashish, originated in India.

Cannabis, commonly known as marijuana, pot, reefer, weed, and grass, is a preparation of the cannabis plant that is used as a psychoactive drug or medicine.

The earliest recorded uses date from the 3rd millennium BC.  Despite its long history of use as a natural medicine, since the early 20th century cannabis has been subject to legal restrictions. Possession, use, and sale of cannabis preparations containing psychoactive cannabinoids are currently illegal in many parts of the world.

Despite the U.S. government’s prohibition of the plant, scientists have continued to study it, and people have continued to use it for both recreational and medicinal purposes.

So far, scientific study of cannabis has identified more than 80 unique, biologically active cannabinoids. A recent meta-analysis of these compounds shows well over a dozen therapeutic properties attributable to cannabinoids, including neuroprotective, anti-cancer, anti-bacterial, and anti-diabetic properties.

A review of several hundred papers assessing cannabis’s therapeutic properties is available on the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) website: Recent Research on Medical Marijuana

Cannabidiol (CBD): The Cat’s Out of the Bag with This Cure-All
By Makia Freeman -
17/06/2016
The truth about Cannabidiol (CBD)

and the cannabis plant in general can no longer be suppressed – and the exciting thing is that we are just at the beginning. We are literally just at the start on the long road of cannabis knowledge, which will take us to a deeper understanding of this astonishing plant, its varied uses and its manifold medical benefits. We still don’t even know how many cannabinoids (natural chemical compounds endemic to the cannabis plant) it contains – over the years the number has been revised in various places from 66 to 85 to 113+. We certainly don’t know the full range of effects of these cannabinoids, nor do we understand the synergistic way they work together, which is of the utmost importance. However, we do know enough to say that one of the foremost cannabinoids is cannabidiol or CBD, and we do know that it has incredible potential for healing a wide range of diseases, including diabetes, insomnia, anxiety, depression, migraines, asthma, scar tissue, Crohn’s, epilepsy, seizures, schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and cancer. Ironically, the whole propaganda campaign of “reefer madness” that tried to demonize marijuana in the 1930s-1950s insinuated that pot caused schizophrenia, and while THC can have some mildly negative psychoactive effects when smoked, it may turn out that CBD-rich cannabis oil cures schizophrenia, not causes it. This demonization campaign, as usual, was led by the Rockefellers and other rich NWO families who were scared that cannabis would destroy their monopolies, such as the Western medical drug industry.

Clearly, the tides of cannabis perception are turning, and many people have overcome the stigma to explore the vast nutritional and medicinal benefits of cannabis. This article focuses on the healing potential of the preeminent cannabinoid, CBD.
Guess Where Else Cannabinoids are Found?

Before we break down the phenomenal effects of CBD, here is a mind-blowing fact. Cannabinoids aren’t just found in the cannabis plant. They’re also found somewhere closer to home: you! That’s right: the human body itself has an entire system which utilizes cannabinoids. It is known as the endocannabinoid system (“endo” is from a Greek word meaning “within”). In this way, we can distinguish among endocannabinoids (those produced by the human body), phytocannabinoids (those produced by the cannabis plant) and synthetic cannabinoids (the approximately 17 synthetic versions produced by the pharmaceutical cartel). Synthetic cannabinoids, by the way, are Big Pharma’s way of trying to pirate and cash in on Nature by modifying or isolating a natural chemical or compound, making it slightly different to its natural state, getting a patent, then marketing it as a drug with a governmentally enforced monopoly. Some synthetic cannabinoids (such as K2, spice, marinol, etc.) have been taken off the market due to their dangerous nature, but after all, they are part of the Big Pharma business plan, and the greater New World Order synthetic agenda, so what do you expect?

he Endocannabinoid System

The cannabinoid receptors (CB1, CB2, etc.), endocannabinoids and the related enzymes all make up the endocannabinoid system – and it’s not just some insignificant little system in the body. Evidence shows it to be essential in most if not all physiological systems, responsible for numerous processes including appetite, pain-sensation, mood, memory and immunity (yes, the endocannabinoid system influences the immune system too). The Italian researcher, Vincenzo Di Marzo, summed it up well in his 1998 study Endocannabinoids: endogenous cannabinoid receptor ligands with neuromodulatory action:

Anti-Angiogenic: As the quote above also reveals, cannabidiol can stop cancer cells in another way, by preventing malignant tumors from forming the blood vessels they need to grow. The process of blood vessel creation is called angiogenesis, and since cannabidiol halts this, it is deemed anti-angiogenic.

Anti-Mitogenic: There is a 3rd way cannabidiol prevents cancer. It hinders or stops cell division (mitogenesis). One of the hallmarks of cancer is its unbridled growth, and amazingly, CBD actually stops the cancer spreading out of control by preventing the cancer cell from dividing and reproducing, and thus is deemed anti-mitogenic.

Anti-Metastatic: Metastasis is the process by which a cancer can spread around the body, especially to other organs which have no direct contact with it. Cannabidiol prevents cancer from spreading to other organs, so it is called anti-metastatic.

Pro-Apoptotic: Apoptosis is the medical word for programmed cell death. It’s an important part of every healthy and functional cell that it contains a program for apoptosis, so it can commit suicide or let itself die if it is compromised. Cancer cells characteristically do not undergo apoptosis, however cannabidiol is pro-apoptotic and actually induces cancer cells to die. Incredible!

Anti-Psychotic: In addition to showing impressive potential for curing cancer, cannabidiol also exhibits anti-psychotic properties, which means it could help heal a whole host of mental illnesses. As the aforementioned article How CBD Works states: “CBD’s enzyme-mediated activation of the PPAR-alpha receptor may have antipsychotic effects. Polymorphisms or mutations in the gene encoding PPAR-alpha can result in deficient PPAR-alpha signaling, which has been linked to schizophrenia. PPAR-alpha activation is both anti-inflammatory and can decrease dopamine release, thereby minimizing schizophrenic symptoms.”

Neuro-Protective: Neurodegenerative diseases (such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s) are another set of horrible diseases which are claiming the lives or more and more people. Fortunately, CBD shows potential for healing these too. Again, the issue comes back to the PPAR-activation (same article): “PPAR-gamma activation degrades amyloid-beta plaque, a key molecule linked to the development of Alzheimer’s disease. This is one of the reasons why cannabidiol, a PPAR-gamma agonist, may be a useful remedy for Alzheimer’s patients. As an aside, PPAR receptors also regulate genes that are involved in energy homeostasis, lipid uptake, insulin sensitivity, and other metabolic functions. Diabetics, accordingly, may benefit from a CBD-rich treatment regimen.”

Anti-Inflammatory: Inflammatory diseases are another massive set of diseases that haunt the populations in developed countries, especially the US. Many nutritional experts and doctors have highlighted the strong connection between inflammation and disease. As Dr. Mark Hyman writes:

    “Inflammation is a “hot” topic in medicine. It appears connected to almost every known chronic disease — from heart disease to cancer, diabetes to obesity, autism to dementia, and even depression. Other inflammatory diseases such as allergies, asthma, arthritis, and autoimmune disease are increasing at dramatic rates …”

According to various studies cited by Medical Marijuana Inc, cannabidiol stops inflammation in various ways:

    “[cannabidiol decreases] the production and release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and decrease the activation of the LPS-induced STAT1 transcription factor, a key factor in some of the pro-inflammatory process. CBD, however, also reduces the activity of the NF-kappaB pathway, a primary pathway regulating pro-inflammatory genes, and upregulates the activation of the STAT3 transcription factor, which induces anti-inflammatory events (Kozela, et al., 2010).”

Analgesic: Analgesic means pain-relieving. CBD is analgesic and is thus indicated for those suffering from inflammatory disease or conditions with chronic pain.

Anti-Convulsant: CBD has become famous for its ability to stop seizures and treat diseases such as epilepsy. The overwhelming consensus of case studies, surveys and pre-clinical animal studies shows that cannabidiol is a powerful anti-convulsant. For a sampling of the studies done on this, see here and here.

Pro-Anxiolytic: Finally, CBD also helps calms the nerves and reduce or eliminate anxiety, and thus is anti-anxiety or medically speaking pro-anxiolytic. The reason why CBD has this effect is probably due to its activation of the adenosine receptor. Adenosine receptors play major roles in brain and cardiovascular function (regulating oxygen intake and blood flow), as well as having anti-inflammatory effects throughout the body, which ties in with CBD’s anti-inflammatory properties.
How Cannabis Kills Cancer Cells

For those wanting a little more information on how cannabis kills cancer cells, I recommend watching a few of these short videos. The 1st video shows how and why cannabis curse cancer. The 2nd video is an interview with a man called Dennis Hill, a survivor of stage IV prostate cancer. Dennis reveals how our bodies make cancer cells all the time, but our immune system (which includes the endocannabinoid system) can normally handle them. However, when the immune system is compromised, it gets behind on killing cancer cells.

Cancer cells have distorted or damaged DNA. Luckily, when a cell turns cancerous, the number of cannabinoid receptors in the cell increases. The body uses its endocannabinoid anandamide to stimulate the production of ceramide, which kills cancer cell mitochondria, starving the cancer cell. The ceramide is intelligently guided; it somehow “knows” to kill damaged cells only and leave the healthy ones intact, much like the way vitamin B17, amygdala or laetrile works to selectively target cancer cells too.
The Future of CBD Oil: Made Without Solvents

Rick Simpson, the Canadian hero who made CBD-rich cannabis oil, gave it away for free and healed many people, came up with a form of CBD oil where he used a solvent to extract it. However, there are now many companies who are producing high-quality CBD oil from non-GMO, non-pesticided hemp, which they then decarboxylate (turn the acidic forms of the cannabinoids into the non-acidic forms, i.e. turn CBDa into CBD and THCa into THC, etc.). I believe in the future, due to the unstoppable momentum of cannabis oil, medical marijuana will become completely decriminalized and legalized, and people all over will have access to high therapeutic grade CBD oil which contains no THC or psychoactive agents.
Conclusion: Let’s Explore the Many Uses of Cannabis and CBD Oil

There are no coincidences in our world – only magic, mystery, synchronicity, conspiracy and connection of which we are often unaware. The sheer fact that our body has its own endocannabinoid system, parallel to the phytocannabinoid system of the cannabis plant, is a fact of key significance and beyond mere coincidence. Call it what you want – cannabis, hemp, marijuana, pot, weed, ganja or kush – this plant has massive potential as a first-class healer extraordinaire. It’s time for all of us around the world to study and use this plant for the bounty of benefits it offers, including making paper, textiles, cloth, rope, oil and fuel, as well as for its nutritional benefits (hemp seed, hemp seed oil) and medical benefits (CBD oil). It has already saved people’s lives. Imagine what else it can do …

THC har en normaliserende virkning på Alzheimers sygdom ifølge reagensglasforsøg.

[anders]

http://www.realfarmacy.com/cancer-researcher-cures-cannabis/

Dennis speaks of his MD Anderson days when he would occasionally visit the patient wing and talk with some of the cancer patients. He was saddened by their conditions, which was more from the treatments of chemotherapy and radiation therapy than the disease itself. He also noticed the visitor entourages that it took to apparently boost their morale while being treated.

He privately hoped this would never happen to him, and if it did, he would seek other treatment options if available to avoid suffering from the toxic conventional treatments he was witnessing. All this time and during his high school and college days in Houston, he was an occasional recreational pot smoker on weekends.

He always knew it was safe and not at all harmful despite the propaganda of that time. This would wind up setting him up to welcoming marijuana as an optional treatment if it could be determined that cannabis could help cure cancer.

That’s what he used for another six months. As a former college scholarship track and field athlete he was accustomed to running two miles daily while working two jobs. The whole six months of using cannabis daily to tolerance did not interfere with his daily routines. Unlike conventionally treated cancer patients, he “had fun” the whole time.

After the six month period, a final biopsy and PSA check confirmed he was completely cancer free. He has now easily passed the five years cancer free from diagnosis that conventional oncology claims as the test of time for a valid cure, and he has turned his biochemistry background toward researching the molecular events of cannabis.

Dennis has written two published papers that explain how cannabis compounds work with receptors in the body for natural healing: The Human Endocannabinoid System Meats the Inflammatory Cytokine Cascade and Cancer Specific Cytotoxicity of Cannabinoids.

Both are interesting, but the cancer specific cytotoxicity paper explains how cannabis compounds of THC (the one that creates the high) and CBD (cannabidiol) work together to destroy cancer cells while nourishing healthy cells.

After his intuitive trial using cannabis substances without knowing the balance of THC and CBD, he recommends using an oil extract with 1:1 ratio of THC to CBD, or 50/50, similar to the original Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) that started the grassroots movement of using cannabis for cancer.

Although using cannabis for healing may require some time getting used to, Dennis mentions that CBD helps alleviate the psychoactive high while assisting THC with reversing any cancer.

Monsanto vil overtage Cannabis markedet

http://sorendreier.com/the-war-on-weed-the-push-for-corporate-cannabis/

Part 1: The “War on Weed” Is Winding Down, But Monsanto…
As detailed in Part I of this article, the health benefits of cannabis are now well established. It is a cheap, natural alternative effective for a broad range of conditions, and the non-psychoactive form known as hemp has thousands of industrial uses. At one time, cannabis was one of the world’s most important crops.

There have been no recorded deaths from cannabis overdose in the US, compared to about 30,000 deaths annually from alcohol abuse (not counting auto accidents), and 100,000 deaths annually from prescription drugs taken as directed. Yet cannabis remains a Schedule I controlled substance (“a deadly dangerous drug with no medical use and high potential for abuse”), illegal to be sold or grown in the US.

Powerful corporate interests no doubt had a hand in keeping cannabis off the market. The question now is why they have suddenly gotten on the bandwagon for its legalization. According to an April 2014 article in The Washington Times, the big money behind the recent push for legalization has come, not from a grassroots movement, but from a few very wealthy individuals with links to Big Ag and Big Pharma.

Leading the charge is George Soros, a major shareholder in Monsanto, the world’s largest seed company and producer of genetically modified seeds. Monsanto is the biotech giant that brought you Agent Orange, DDT, PCBs, dioxin-based pesticides, aspartame, rBGH (genetically engineered bovine growth hormone), RoundUp (glyphosate) herbicides, and RoundUp Ready crops (seeds genetically engineered to withstand glyphosate).

Monsanto now appears to be developing genetically modified (GMO) forms of cannabis, with the intent of cornering the market with patented GMO seeds just as it did with GMO corn and GMO soybeans. For that, the plant would need to be legalized but still tightly enough controlled that it could be captured by big corporate interests.

Competition could be suppressed by limiting access to homegrown marijuana; bringing production, sale and use within monitored and regulated industry guidelines; and legislating a definition of industrial hemp as a plant having such low psychoactivity that only GMO versions qualify. Those are the sorts of conditions that critics have found buried in the fine print of the latest initiatives for cannabis legalization.

Patients who use the cannabis plant in large quantities to heal serious diseases (e.g. by juicing it) find that the natural plant grown organically in sunlight is far more effective than hothouse plants or pharmaceutical cannabis derivatives.

Letitia Pepper is a California attorney and activist who uses medical marijuana to control multiple sclerosis. As she puts it, if you don’t have an irrevocable right to grow a natural, therapeutic herb in your backyard that a corporation able to afford high license fees can grow and sell to you at premium prices, isn’t that still a war on people who use marijuana?

Follow the Money to Uruguay

Monsanto has denied that it is working on GMO strains. But William Engdahl, author ofSeeds of Destruction: The Hidden Agenda of Genetic Manipulation, presents compelling circumstantial evidence to the contrary. In a March 2014 article titled “The Connection Between the Legalization of Marijuana in Uruguay, Monsanto and George Soros”, Engdahl observes that in 2014, Uruguay became the first country to legalize the cultivation, sale and consumption of marijuana.

Soros is a major player in Uruguay and was instrumental in getting the law passed. He sits on the board of the New York-based Drug Policy Alliance (DPA), the world’s most influential organization for cannabis legalization. The DPA is active not only in the US but in Uruguay and other Latin American countries. Engdahl writes:

Studies show that Monsanto without much fanfare conducts research projects on the active ingredient in marijuana, namely THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), in order to genetically manipulate the plant. David Watson of the Dutch company Hortapharm has since 1990 created the world’s largest collection of Cannabis seed varieties. In 1998, the British firm GW Pharmaceuticals signed an agreement with Hortapharm that gives GW Pharma the rights to use the Hortapharm cannabis for their research.

In 2003 the German Bayer AG then signed an agreement with GW Pharmaceuticals for joint research on a cannabis-based extract. In 2007, Bayer AG agreed to an exchange of technology with . . . Monsanto . . . . Thus Monsanto has discreet access to the work of the cannabis plant and its genetic modification. In 2009 GW Pharmaceuticals announced that it had succeeded in genetically altering a cannabis plant and patented a new breed of cannabis.

Monsanto could have even greater access to the Bayer/GW research soon. In March 2016, Monsanto approached the giant German chemical and pharmaceutical company Bayer AG with a joint venture proposal concerning its crop science unit. In May, Bayer then made an unsolicited takeover bid for Monsanto. On May 24th, the $62 billion bid was rejected as too low; but negotiations are continuing.

The prospective merger would create the world’s largest supplier of seeds and chemicals. Environmentalists worry that the entire farming industry could soon be looking at sterile crops soaked in dangerous pesticides. Monsanto has sued hundreds of farmers for simply saving seeds from year to year, something they have done for millennia. Organic farmers are finding it increasingly difficult to prevent contamination of their crops by Monsanto’s GMOs.

In Seeds of Destruction, Engdahl quotes Henry Kissinger, Richard Nixon’s Secretary of State. Kissinger notoriously said, “Control oil and you control nations; control food and you control the people.” Engdahl asserts that the “Green Revolution” was part of the Rockefeller agenda to destroy seed diversity and push oil- and gas-based agricultural products in which Rockefeller had a major interest. Destruction of seed diversity and dependence on proprietary hybrids was the first step in food control. About 75% of the foodstuffs at the grocery store are now genetically manipulated, in what has been called the world’s largest biological experiment on humans.

Scientists at the Salk Institute for Biological Studies and UCSD
in La Jolla, California, have found
evidence that tetrahydrocannabinol
and other compounds in marijuana
can promote the cellular removal of
amyloid beta, a toxic protein
associated with Alzheimer's disease.
"Although other studies have
offered evidence that cannabinoids
might be neuroprotective against the
symptoms of Alzheimer’s, we believe
our study is the first to demonstrate
that cannabinoids affect both
inflammation and amyloid beta
accumulation in nerve cells," said
Salk's Professor David Schubert, the
senior author of the paper.
In separate but related research,
Schubert's team had found an
Alzheimer’s drug candidate called
J147 that also removes amyloid beta
from nerve cells and reduces the
inflammatory response in nerve cells
and the brain. It was the J147 study
that led the scientists to discover
that endocannabinoids are involved
in the removal of amyloid beta and
the reduction of inflammation.
Alzheimer's disease incidence is
expected to triple in the next 50 years.

Et "Medicinsk hamp"-product blev givet til forsøgspersoner i 3 måneder og med psychometriske tests som IQ-tests og andre tests blev det vist at disse mennesker fungerede bedre, havde forbedret IQ, nedsatte deres forbrug af smertestillende midler, hurtigere reaktionstid, osv.
Forsøget er ikke afsluttet endnu, og der er ikke foretaget en fuldstændig analyse af resultaterne endnu.
