It's a good medicine herb, but, you still must use it intelligently. Like anything it can be, and will be corrupted, to become something to control people with. Good information here.
On the odd occasion that I have tried to use weed for 'pleasure' or relaxation, it made me have schizophrenic feelings, nauseous and even had me throw up. What am I doing wrong or what was happening? It was homegrown cannabis, no chemicals. Now I'm very reluctant to try it again.
Different strains have different effects; maybe something with more CBD is better for you and maybe trying it with a vaporizer instead of smoking (so no dirty tobacco and a different effect) can make a big difference. But even then, as ArtemisForestFairy says; it's not for everybody so if it does not make you feel relaxed/happy, stay away from it.
My elderly parents (70+) wanted to try so had them try a very 'light' version with a vaporiser and went inside to roast some nuts for the inevitable munchies, came back out about half an hour later; my mother was in fetal position and her partner relaxing with his eyes closed. I asked my mom how she was and she hated it. Could not let go of the need for control, felt scared with the body high etc. I asked her partner and he loved it, started explaining all the beautiful colours he saw, geometric shapes and so on. Very cool, it was like a young boy who described something magical.
You may not be doing anything wrong at all. Respect your constitution. not every herb is good for every person. I have known people who do not respond well to it before. there are other herbs you might have success with. ginseng, is something that might help you, for example. I do not recommend it taken in any form but raw. The rastafari, say this also. they use only the fresh herb and eat it raw, or in a smoothie. or a sun tea.
I'm so glad to see an article on cannabis. If only we utilized this amazing plant we would be super flushed with grandness. No wonder the government took it away. Think of all the trouble they took to eradicate it using helicopters and infrared lights to spot it and laws to jail people for using it or growing it. Humans are so retarded by their belief in government. And to think 50% of pharmaceuticals are aimed at destroying the body's receptor that fights disease. I love the picture you painted of a world where we live in great health. Imagine too where our waters were clean, our air and soil and sky - all pristine and we were a vigorous thriving species. All other species would benefit too. We could make petrochemicals obsolete as hemp, bamboo and kenaf have the ability to replace all that with massive health and environmental benefits.
Hemp is all but a miracle plant. The history of the attack on weed stems from hemp, not marijuana.
Hemp grows quickly and is capable of producing much higher quality paper than trees are. It's super replenishable.
It also has incredible healing/health properties among numerous other benefits.
The government launched its attack to help certain industries thrive without which the suppression of hemp it wouldn't have been nearly as possible. The history of the government's assault on hemp is fascinating.
Yup, it sure is interesting - and Dupont had a great deal to do with that history. Hemp was once mandated to be grown by American farmers for its value as a textile and lubricant before the next iteration of a global pharmacratic government criminalised the plant and helped push our evolution off the rails. Covid my arse.
I can’t think of one single major policy decision taken by the US government that has worked to the net benefit of all citizens. Highly intelligent but corrupt individuals carefully craft policy to the benefit of their friends and benefactors. and yet sell it to highly intelligent but ignorant populations as something for their benefit.
That's how it was designed. The narrative, aka propaganda, lays it out otherwise, but most relevant history is either skewed and/or embellished or false altogether.
The US Government and its departments and agencies are all a series of corporations, and as such can be controlled by the owners of those corporations.
The Central Banking Cabal owns and controls everything in that way. Think of it as one giant global Company Store set-up.
All these people thinking that (s)elections can change anything or that anyone will be held accountable in THEIR system, that THEY control entirely, to the extent that it will do anything except make some people feel a little bit better, much less actually change anything, are deluded.
This is a spirtual war, Christ vs. anti-Christ. On this earth THEY win. Hence all the warnings in the NT to be faithful unto death All but ALL of formalized "Christianity" has been coopted by the enemy. Most things that we call "churches" in the US are little more than secular social organizations, and as 501(c) organizations, THEY are corporations too.
love your content when i have a few hours to watch - and why i really appreciate shorter pieces that i can actually fit into my schedule, because i rarely do have that time to!
It's legal where I live, thank God. I use CBD daily and it's great for joint pain, which began at a pretty young age. I also have cut down on inflammation through diet, no sugar, few carbs etc.
I've also used THC for pain, and would prefer it to addictive pharmaceuticals, which I wouldn't take, including after an operation, though for the operation you have no choices. It's also possible to control pain with imagery, etc. However, I don't like getting high, it's a really unpleasant experience for me. I feel the same about alcohol. I'm not a prude and am fine with other people who want to use it for that.
If I have pain I take CBD and follow it with the THC 20-30 minutes later. The CBD blocks the high to a large extent, but not all the way. And is great for pain. I also normally take it at night. But I don't normally need it for pain except for injury, etc, tho have used it enough to see the same thing each time with the combo. I may try microdosing thc to see what that does. I'd point out that each person is different and so your own experience should be your guide, and if you manage to find a good functional medicine doctor, talking it over with him/her could be valuable.
Taking CBD daily likely has other health effects and I'm grateful for that.
Someone I know in another state, Ohio, where they voted to legalize growing it for personal use, up to 12 plants, then the state wanted to cut it back to six plants. Welp, because there are male and female, that means you may have a hard time getting enough female plants if growing from seed. All kinds of shenanigans.
I fear that the cannabis you could get about 20 years ago and what you get nowadays are very different… I remember getting smarter/sharper when I used to smoke. The stuff that's legal now just makes you dumb and horny. I'd bet the reason why it's getting legalized is because they've perfected the tweaked substance to make people apathetic and numb instead of introspective and more attuned to the universe.
There is the possibility that you have changed and not the marijuana. Maybe you're no longer as introspective and attuned to the universe as you were 20 years ago.
It's possible that if fruits and vegetables have become tasteless and lifeless compared to what they used to be like when I was a kid is just because my taste buds have changed. It's possible that they taste way better in some countries just because I'm in a better mood when I'm there.
And it's also possible that making assumptions about someone you know nothing about instead of listening to what they have to say might limit your capacity to question everything.
I agree that hemp industry has been criminalized for monopolistic purposes, it's an amazing crop. But the existence of receptors in the body and the claims of "super efficiency" are laughable. Look at the countries and communities where people smoke pot all day, tell me they're super efficient and healthy. Just enjoy your mind-altering drugs and don't pretend it's some miracle molecule for humanity.
Are you assuming that this article is referring to smoking marijuana? That would be a very self-serving assumption, and you would be wrong. Also wrong on the negative effects of smoking cannabis, but this article was referring to consuming THC/CBD. And this "laughable" concept is a proven fact, literally disputed by no one in the scientific community. But I am sure you know better.
Smoking pot is how millions of people ingest THC into their bloodstream. Are you saying there's completely different effects from edibles? I've got stoner friends who do it all, they're not "super efficient" in any sense of the word, medically or mentally
You are clearly having trouble seeing beyond the decades long propaganda. We are not even having the same conversation. You are stuck on the "stoner" perception. What if you take the cannabis plant and simply blend it into a shake? All I said was consume, not smoke, or bake, both of which cause the psychoactive aspects. I am talking about the whole plant properties, which yes can also be utilized with smoking and baking. But if all you can see is "reefer madness" you are missing the point entirely. Lastly, "super efficient" is about body processes, not doing your chores around the house. This is not "Limitless".
Nobody in history or today whom I admire needed THC or CBD to accomplish what they did. But everyone I know who sells drugs is evil, and everyone who buys them is a loser. It would be a lie for me to ignore that because of some supposed studies in a war of propaganda.
Very true. Another element that every cell in our body has a receptor for is iodine. Also demonized by Pharma and governments. 90% of population is deficient in this element required by all organs and cells to function. Maybe you could do a deep into iodine?
If you haven't read it, The Emperor Wears No Clothes: A History of Cannabis/Hemp/Marijuana by Jack Herer is a fantastic history/resource book about it. So glad you're writing about it.
Without you knowing it, you're promoting "altered states of mind" which is one of the many new age pagan agenda activities.
You all go on about the good qualities of cannabis, how it can be used to improve the health of someone who is ill, but these are a very tiny minority, isn't it?
It's like heroin, cocaine, etc... they're used in some cases to help certain health conditions, but that doesn't mean they're good for people in general.
What most defenders of cannabis really want is to be off head with it, have a 'high'.
Plus for those who are christians, it's a sin!
There are tons of legions of people who smoked that stuff when they were growing up, and end up with serious different types of dysfunctions.
Finally, with any addiction, you've to take in consideration one of the biggest addiction's traits: compulsion, meaning, wherever they are doing or taking, they ALWAYS want more, and more, and more.
Please show me where the Bible states that using marijuana is a sin. Who are you to judge others? Sorry but your misguided assertion is just your opinion and I'll leave my judgement up to God not to someone commenting on social media.
Yeah, there are also downsides to much cannabis use especially high thc varieties or manufactured concentrates. Getting High is fun though and entertaining for a little bit. There might be some benefits but not for most people especially young people, in opinion and in published studies. Paranoia, laziness, and short term memory loss to name a few downsides.
I'm 8 days sober from cannabis. While it helped tremendously for my anxiety and PTSD, my lungs told me they wouldn't be able to work as long if I continued to smoke on the daily.

Thank you, Ryan, for this vital information informing Americans of the many health benefits of Cannabis.

Another thing big pharma doesn't want you to be using!
Ryan, I'm always impressed at the accuracy and volume of your output. Bravo!
Thank you John.

two things Sativa, Indica, or blend--each has its own characteristic effect
and, as in everything, the dose controls
There is also "ruderalis", which is the third, yet far less know species of cannabis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabis_ruderalis
I fear that the cannabis you could get about 20 years ago and what you get nowadays are very different… I remember getting smarter/sharper when I used to smoke.

Sure. Everything is possible…
It's possible that if fruits and vegetables have become tasteless and lifeless compared to what they used to be like when I was a kid is just because my taste buds have changed. It's possible that they taste way better in some countries just because I'm in a better mood when I'm there.
And it's also possible that making assumptions about someone you know nothing about instead of listening to what they have to say might limit your capacity to question everything.
What's funny is your use pf psychological projection. I listened to what you said and commented. Where's the assumption in maybe you've changed?
Whoops… Just another fucking troll. Alright… Muted.
Psychological projection and muting, but I'm the troll. LOL Are you always so emotionally driven?
I agree that hemp industry has been criminalized for monopolistic purposes, it's an amazing crop. But the existence of receptors in the body and the claims of "super efficiency" are laughable.

Alright. Fair enough, I did miss your point. I might have to look again at the non psychoactive side of it
I find your arrogant, judgmental attitude as appalling as Clapper's statement of the characteristics of the Russian people.
Nobody in history or today whom I admire needed THC or CBD to accomplish what they did. But everyone I know who sells drugs is evil, and everyone who buys them is a loser. It would be a lie for me to ignore that because of some supposed studies in a war of propaganda.
Yeah you are either trolling or spectacularly missing the point. I tried.
