> Guess what, my maternal granddad had Parkinson's disease > Just think of what we could do if we could easily treat Alzheimer's or other age related disorders If only scientists focused their research on Medical Cannabis which is time and again showing positive results on plenty of patients afflicted with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. My grandpa had Parkinson's too. I wish I or my family knew of Medical Cannabis and the positive effects of CBD back then. It makes me angry that this naturally occurring plant was banned by the CIA and India followed suit when Cannabis (called Vijaya in Sanskrit) was used in Ayurveda for thousands of years. We discarded a medicine that was working perfectly fine for chemicals made artificially by Big Pharma. Now people have no choice and have to resort to going for allopathy when an alternative natural medicine exists but would invite prison time if you use it. No one would dare to break the law. And when accompanied by social stigma in using it you have this fine concoction of guilt for breaking the law and anger, sadness at the sheer ignorance of society.
