[Canniseur: Medical doctors tend to stick their heads in the sand and not keep current on many of today's current medical affairs. They tend to be stay with old and outdated modalities (good fats, sugar feeding cancers, probiotics & prebiotics, etc). It's great that...

[Canniseur: If true, this is good news indeed for those who have traumatic brain injuries. If there is a correlation with CTE as well, the news becomes fantastic. In spite of the Federal ban on cannabis research, we're beginning to see lots of new research and ideas.]...

Below is an abstract from the most important AIDS conference in the US. It's a bit scientific, but important reading. The whole paper was presented at the recent HIV conference in Seattle at the beginning of March. The Blood-Brain Barrier (BBB) is a difficult issue in...

Modified brewer's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) could soon provide researchers with access to rare cannabis compounds.Thomas Deernick, NCMIR/Science Photo Library [Editor's Note: This was bound to happen eventually. Somehow taking the plant out of the...

[Editor's Note: The more we find out about cannabis and our health, the less we find out we knew. Here's one study that flies in the face of 'established' understandings of cannabis and human health. We need more research.] Previous studies have linked heavy pot use...

[Ed. Note; There's a very simple reason for kidney transplant donors and recipients being denied access to the wait list - Schedule 1. Medicare pays for kidney transplants and Medicare is a federal program. Meanwhile, good people are being denied based on an old...

Ed. Note: Why would anyone trade a drug that works and costs about $200 per month for one they don't know and costs almost $3000 per month. The logic escapes us. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration in June approved a cannabis-derived drug to treat severe seizures...

Ed. Note: This is a start. We firmly believe that science based research and knowledge based on science, not emotion. This is a terrific start.
World-class scientists, researchers and physicians will gather at the University of Michigan to discuss cannabis and “separate fact from fiction.”

Ed. Note: This is kind of a duh. But there are a few misrepresentations and other issues with this article. CBD is not an antagonist of THC is the first one. THC in cannabis does not cause or make psychosis worse. That’s a fallacy and a perception that ‘high’ is a bad thing. It is not. It is bad to some people, but not everyone. Bias in science writing is not a good thing. Good science writing calls for a very even handed view of the facts and not an inserted bias that this reporter is doing. Sorry Alexandra.
A single dose of a supplement derived from cannabis reduces psychotic symptoms, despite psychosis being linked to the long-term use of the Class B drug, new research suggests.

As more and more Americans consider the pros and cons of cannabis legalization, many points are worth repeating, and chief among them: cannabis actually decreases the risk of lung cancer. It’s a counter-intuitive notion, since tobacco smoking causes cancer, marijuana...

A recent study published by a team of researchers from Lancaster University and The University of Lisbon indicates long-term cannabis use could result in damage to the human brain. We’re not sure how they managed to come to that conclusion however, because the study...
