Now Cannabis Can Reverse Old Age Brain Decline And Dementia?

in #cannabis4 years ago (edited)

Holy Smokes!
I'm not trying to follow the research of cannabis benefits but I keep running into amazing headlines and I ESPECIALLY take notice when it has to do with Anti-aging nature cures or medicine.

Howdy folks and greetings from the Great Plains of North Texas!

Yesterday I saw an article on some fascinating research being conducted in Germany by a man who used work with the National Institutes of Health here in the U.S. but now is one of Germany’s top neuroscientists, Andreas Zimmer.

What he did is take old mice who had deteriorated mentally and memory wise, and gave them a small amount of THC, which is the compound in weed that makes you high. They put implants in their bodies which release it periodically in small doses.

Well guess what?

The old mice are now running around with 2 month old mice, just as active, AND they've RECOVERED their memories and can now compete with the younger mice. In fact, Mr. Zimmer says you can't tell them apart!

The old stoner mice even relearned how to get out of mazes that they'd forgotten how to do as they got older. This is very exciting news for possible treatments for Alzheimer's and dementia in humans.

Dr. Zimmer says..“The effects are extremely robust and easy to see,” says Zimmer. “It works reliably on every measure of cognition we have for mice.” source

How it works

Well, I can't go into detail because I have no idea exactly how if works but basically THC has the ability to untangle the tangled up mess of brain neurons and plaques that build up in Alzheimer's.

So this is just one more of the incredible medical benefits and treatments coming from the amazing cannabis plant. And many more are coming because research is just getting started in earnest because of legalization.

Nineteen of the 27 countries in the European Union have legalized it so it won't be long before they all have. They'll probably beat the U.S. on that front.

I'm sure the medical advancements in medicine in the next ten years will blow peoples minds. Especially with the help of quantum computers.

And as for cannabis, they know it will help cancer, Crohn’s, epilepsy, glaucoma, nausea, pain, PTSD, and many more conditions and now most likely, Alzheimer's.

Yep. Crazy things.

So my friend decided to treat his dog to ended up with puppy cancer I and my friend had cancer two.

well my friend decides that if his medication is working for him that it is good enough for his dog.

Let's just say that his health came back and he had to limit the amount of medicine he was giving his dog because his dog came back to life and was acting like a puppy.

Just wait until we have more research!

This really cracked me up

Howdy sir ganjafarmer! Wow, that's amazing...yes who know's what else this stuff can do!

Oh I can't wait to see the new fur.ture of antiviral, antifungal, and anti bacterial chemical that's in cannabis. Kills all infections and safer than aspirin.

Absolutely works on humans as well as man's best friend

Very interesting! I know for me, cannabis helps me lossen my stiff muscles, and it is great for working out or doing hard manual labor. Thanks for the share!

FYI you should add the tag, weedcash. This will get your post publshed to the cannabis tribe, Weedcash. You got 24 hours to do so, and ill vote when you do, since I have a nice Weedcash stake. :)

Howdy jonyoudyer! It's great that you are already being helped by cannabis! Thanks so much for the tip about the tag, I'll do that now.

I need to become a pothead. Sheesh. HA!

Do it!!! What are you waiting for. I'd love to teach you how to grow the dankest flowers.
Go check out @cowboyblazerfan he knows what's up.

lol...that way you'll never get dementia! Well we'll see what kind of drugs or supplements they make out of THC, outta be interesting.

my motto is... Just keep tokin, just keep tokin, just keep tokin tokin tokin, lol. I will be an awesome and sharp witted grandpa with all the cannabis i am intaking at a young age, lol! Prevention at it's finest, lol.

lol..there ya go, you'll never have to worry about dementia if this holds true for humans and it probably does!

Fascinating. Absolutely fascinating. I had not heard of anti-aging links with Cannabis. What a plant!

Howdy sir lydon.sipe! I agree, it's amazing what they're finding out about it, it's a miracle plant! lol.

Mary Jane is the Best :)
And like you mentioned already..."research is just getting started..." ;)

Exactly. I think we'll be amazed in a just a few years at what cures they come up with. Thanks so much for commenting!

You're welcome ;)
For sure! This humanity doesn't know a lot outside their "thinking in a box"
I also heard that the THC protects the brain cells... from radiation (wireless/5G)...

Oh I haven't heard that about the protection from 5G..very interesting. Thank you luca1777!

We still need more precise research...
Greetings

Exactly, just getting started in so many areas that show promise.

Well don't get overexcited...it's mice we're talking about

There have been ongoing studies here using CBD, if you google it you'll find some articles on CBD reversing the effects of dementia and Alzheimer. I heard about it quite some time ago but never looked into it until an old family friend was diagnosis-ed with Alzheimer a couple years ago. I sent him all the information and told him where to go to get CBD that was legit CBD from a health food store that was selling it at the time. If one is going to use it I would assume they want to get what they are paying for as you never know where all these places like gas stations are getting it from. I don't know if he had his wife look at the info, he said she was a nurse....usually they are the most skeptical as doctors are more than likely to frown upon using something other than pharmaceuticals they push on people.

And did it work?

I don't know. You reminded me that I was going to call him today to see if his wife had him do it. I just called and got the answering machine, I will let you know when someone gets back to me.

I hope they're measuring doses carefully. I know a lot of stoners who are... not the sharpest knives in the drawer. Too much of a good thing, I guess? Still, it does seem to have a lot of useful applications and the over-regulation stifled any potential knowledge we could have gained from studying the stuff for far too long.

A friend of mine from high school gets to make cocaine for work, occasionally. Apparently, pharmacists get the ok to make it in incredibly tiny amounts for some sort of topical diaper rash salve. Goest to show, most things can be a blessing or a curse, depending on how they're used.

Ha! A friend of yours gets to make cocaine! Very interesting. I agree about the research on cannabis, not much was done while it was illegal. I wonder how long before it's legal everywhere? Texas will probably be the last state to legalize it.

Everything seems to just keep getting better!

Yes sir optout, many breakthroughs are coming and I think within ten years cancer and Alzheimer's will be cured.
