The crippled plant that can save the planet
Hello guys, I want to continue to share with you the benefits of hemp, because everyone has to get acquainted with this plant and most of all to know the benefits and privileges of marijuana. Let's not allow the government to tell us what to think about, let's get to know the information that's hiding from us.
Most people are confused about the cannabis plant and its thousands of applications. The results of ignorance and disinformation have led to thousands of people being imprisoned around the world, stimulating organized crime, and depriving states and their citizens of an important source of income.
Hemp is a plant that has been grown for a variety of uses since 10,000 years and has a "bad reputation" of just 80. It is classed in three different types: Cannabis Sativa , Cannabis Indica and Cannabis R uderalis. Male Sativa plants are primarily associated with the textile and food industries and are characterized by very high fiber and seed content (30-40%), but it has recently become clear that industrial applications are virtually limitless. Female plants, mainly Sativa and Indica, are cultivated for medical, ritual and recreational purposes. The main difference between male and female plants is the content of the most well-known compound in cannabis, the psychoactive delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is why it is included in the list of prohibited substances under UN international conventions.
In male Sativa plants, there is a minimum THC content (0.2-1.5%), which together with the lack of color excludes completely the euphoric impact that many people actually seek for entertainment. In contrast, male and female plants, leaves, oil and seeds have countless applications (over 50,000) such as fabrics, ropes, paper and high nutrition foods, and are used as building and insulating materials, biodegradable plastics , fuels, paints, etc.
Seeds and oil of hemp have a very high nutritional value because they contain high-quality proteins, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, amino acids, minerals and vitamins. Industrial hemp has many beneficial properties that can be used to decontaminate water and soils, restore ecosystems and agricultural areas from accumulated chemicals and radiation (it is suggested that industrial hemp be sown in the area around today's Chernobyl for that very reason). It can also be used as a natural pesticide.
Hemp culture does not require large amounts of water or chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Removes harmful emissions from the atmosphere and has a positive impact on the environment. The hemp has the potential to replace cotton as it is more resistant (up to 3 times) and is more fiber-based. It also has a higher yield per decare of cotton, requires 14 times less water and at the same time does not need any chemicals.
Hemp is ideal for banknote and paper production as it is more durable, more efficient and much more productive (not to mention that it only takes a few months to reach 4-5 meters); this way valuable forest resources can be saved. In the past, culture has been used precisely in this direction, with much of the paper being made from hemp, and the most famous document printed on hemp paper is the first copy of the notorious US "Declaration of Independence." The Hemp Paper can be recycled up to seven times, whereas the one from wood - only three.
Female Sativa and Indica plants have a higher THC content (reaching over 30%), which favors euphoric dissolution and medico-therapeutic use. The first documented therapeutic use of cannabis dates back to 2700 BC. in China, to date, this analgesic and therapeutic herb is consumed by millions of people every day (around 225 million worldwide), whether to dissolve or simply to expand consciousness and perceptions.
Cannabis has been used since ancient times to treat over 200 human diseases. Medical cannabis has positive results in preventing nausea and vomiting, premenstrual syndrome, unintended weight loss, insomnia, loss of appetite, helps the body after chemotherapy, helps with asthma, glaucoma, AIDS symptoms, and there are many stories of people curing themselves of herbal extract of herb in the form of butter. Others confirm the positive effects of the treatment of multiple sclerosis, any kind of pain, especially neurogenic pain and spinal cord injury, also acts as an anticonvulsant and muscle relaxant. Also the hemp herb may be useful in the treatment of adrenal dysfunction, irritable bowel syndrome, migraine, fibromyalgia and other pain-related complaints.
Others medical studies have shown that cannabis or, in particular, herbal active ingredients (cannabinoids) are particularly useful in the treatment of alcohol and other opiates, arthritis, atherosclerosis, bipolar disorder, symptoms of epilepsy and autism, posttraumatic syndrome, sensory neuropathy, , specific diseases of the digestive system, gliomas (brain tumors), hepatitis C, Huntington's disease, leukemia, skin tumors, Parkinson's disease, pruritus, psoriasis, sickle cell anemia, sleep apnea and ano- Eksi.
Now, in many countries around the world (including in the EU) there is the possibility of medical treatment with the hemp plant, it is also possible in some countries to buy cannabis-derived medicines. Most positive recommendations exist from cured patients who consume cannabis oil. Unfortunately, however, extracts still remain illegal, and all of this, along with other miraculous and beneficial uses of the plant, makes us wonder why cultivation has been illegal over the past few decades!
Who actually benefits from this ban? The answer for many people is beginning to crystallize in clarity. These are the competing economic interests of all affected industries, as well as the Mafia, along with the entire corrupt political system, judges, policemen and lawyers who support the ban. In fact, the ban is far more harmful than the plant itself, and unfortunately, we still pay the high price of misguided policy, which has been going on for decades. In addition, cannabis is not toxic and is clearly more harmless than cigarettes and alcohol. There has never been a history of death (overdose) caused by cannabis use. So far, there is no authentic study that actually proves negative consequences of use. Even more, the prevention of cancer cell growth was discovered while a study was being conducted to prove that cannabis actually causes cancer. In short, more people die each year due to drinking water or eating peas, for example, than cannabis.
Excessive use alone can lead to psychological dependence, but not physical, and hence negative effects from use, but is not everything harmful when overtaking it? If there is a predisposition, irresponsible use can lead to laziness or antisocial behavior - introvertness and anxiety and paranoia, but this is mainly due to the effect of different varieties that appear to be stronger and more psychoactive. There are unknown how many thousands of different varieties of cannabis - each with different effects. Some have a sense of relaxation, others have a tonic effect, and that's the biggest prejudice that people have about "marijuana." Bringing all varieties and their effects under one denominator is pure ignorance. Hemp opponents think that the effects slow down reactions and the thought is slower, but many users notice the exact opposite effect, and in many cases cannabis acts even more toning than strong coffee!
In any case, the herb affects everyone differently, and that is why it should not be used by anyone. Some people act positively, others do not, but the crime in this case is that those who hinder their potential bloom in the hemp industry (which is inevitable in any case) decide whether it is appropriate to regulate and legitimize, ignoring those who, who actually benefit from it.
Only when most people already know about the herb that it heals and is capable of pulling humanity forward when it is used for its intended purpose can only come to a favorable outcome. In any case, the ban prevents development, because everyone knows that it is too easy to find cannabis for smoking today, and only the dark sector of the economy wins. As for medical applications and those in need - they also remain in the dark while "grass" will always be sold, and one patient will always be able to obtain supplies because the intended crops "smoke" coupons instead of being considered as medicine, refine the soil, or save the priceless forests of felling. Imagine 50,000 apps and counting continues. The ban, it is maintained by those who, who know only one application - that it smokes that it damages. Yes, it is harmful, but it is harmful to the economy and is detrimental to the health and well-being of people. In Bulgaria, according to unofficial data, about half a million people suffer from this high form of discrimination. Legalization? The question is not whether, but how and when!
