Cannabis Extracts for the Primary Treatment of Cancer, Epilepsy, and More

[Jackmannii]

@JFLuvly

Is this anecdotal, yes, but I have some of my life back and I personally think I owe it to the cannabis

There are lots of testimonials by Freud on how good cocaine was for him.

Until it wasn’t.

In any event, JKander wasn’t just claiming beneficial pain and psychiatric symptom relief for pot, but that it healed cancer and virtually any disease (oddly, I don’t recall him claiming relief for himself. No, he was in the “movement” supposedly as a public service, though it appeared likely his altruism was related to a general hope for an ample legal supply of recreational cannabis).

I would have thought you’d resent his snake oilish boosterism.

I truly do not want to argue about this…seriously, so don’t think I am running away from your posts, I just don’t have the time to look for cites for everything I say as I know you guys will accept nothing less, see ignorance fought!

If you would like to check out some of the research, you could start here, it’s a list compiled with some research that goes with it.

I’m not a crusader for medical marijuana by any stretch, but I know what it has done for me and my wife. There are hundreds of ailments on the list and I have not looked at all of them, but some seem to have compelling evidence in the studies provided. I’m not saying they all work, but who knows for sure.

So, what would you suggest is the appropriate way to determine if they do work?

Any good double-blind studies in that pile?

[Czarcasm]

Also, not buying this “I’m not here to argue” crap. What makes you so special that you can present something as fact then take off without bothering to justify your words? You’ve certainly been here long enough to know that this isn’t that type of forum.

So, the pot advocates STILL cannot provide a single study to support their worship of the leaf.

Well, to be fair, there is an increasing body of evidence to support its efficacy for a number of concerns. It’s a reasonably effective antiemetic, f’rinstance.

Just not, yanno, cancer. Or epilepsy. Or, um, “everything.”

Mr. Kander, I have a question for you. The striking resemblance between your last name and the words for Cannabis in several languages, including various Turkic languages, Hungarian, and Kurdish—

Bashkort: kinder
Crimean Tatar: kendir
Kurdish: kendir
Kyrgyz: kendir
Hungarian: kender
Tatar: kinder
Turkish: kendir
Uyghur: kändir
Uzbek: kendir

—is that coincidental or deliberate?

I think it’s coincidence, but who knows? Likes “kind bud”.

He also has several Kindle items on Amazon:

This is the one he came here with.

Being Free of Pharmaceuticals Through Nutrition, Exercise, and Meditation

Pharmaceuticals are often presented as the ultimate solution to any health problem, whether it be chronic pain, headaches, insomnia, depression ,or any common ailment. Such chemical inventions are also the primary treatments for serious diseases like cancer.

Are pharmaceuticals really the way humans were meant to heal? The wrongness of this path to health is apparent in the wide range of side effects created by pharmaceutical ingestion, and the fact that pills are generally ineffective for healing the root cause of a disease.

This last one seems telling.

Because I have other things to do with my life than argue points on a message board, not all pot smokers sit around justifying cannabis use to strangers on the internet. Have you looked at the link I added? Things like the fact that the U.S. government holds the patent on cannabinoids is interesting. http://www.patentstorm.us/patents/6630507.html .

As I said before I really don’t have time to read through all of this, but feel free to take a look yourself and draw your own conclusions.

I tried to walk away, but I keep thinking about penicillin and it’s history. Mould spores have had a long history in medicine and the road to penicillin was pretty rocky. I’m pretty sure there were no shortage of naysayers then either. This was essentially worked out through trial and error, but as a cure it was around for thousands of years.

If you really want double blind studies so bad, talk to your government or a scientist and ask them why there are so few of them. I already said I am not an activist, nor do I believe that it’s a cure all. What worked for me worked for me, and that my friends, is what I choose to believe.

And there’s a long history of health problems caused by mold.

And the discovery of penicillin was accidental.

[dropzone]

And proper studies to see if it actually worked before it was unleashed.

[JFLuvly]

So are you saying that you would be willing to trade the benefits of penicillin because of health issues caused by mould?

Are you trying to help bolster my argument with the statement about it being found by accident? That being said this history of penicillin seems to allude to the fact that it was quite well known for some time that mould spores were preventing the growth of bacteria.

History of penicillin

According to the above link, not quite.

[running_coach]

Some mold spores. Do you want your doctor to just randomly give you mold?

The problem with JKander’s approach is he was saying that cannabis was a miracle cure for everything, it didn’t need studies and that everyone should be taking cannabis every day. His rationale was that humans have cannabinoid receptors therefore it was a cure. Humans have opoid receptors but I don’t see anyone touting opiates as cures.

He had no science nor any understanding of science or methodology when it comes to evaluating medical matters.

He ignored the failures or even tried to claim them as successes.

[JFLuvly]

Morphine and codeine don’t count?

[JFLuvly]

Just for the record, there are many class action lawsuits against the manufacturers of a lot of drugs on the market today, the very ones that went through the very science and methodology that you are touting.

[JFLuvly]

No more than I want him to give me hemp.

[running_coach]

@JFLuvly

Not as cures for everything.

@JFLuvly

Just for the record, there are many class action lawsuits against the manufacturers of a lot of drugs on the market today, the very ones that went through the very science and methodology that you are touting.

And how many are for undisclosed side effects or are even for a valid reason?
Look at the ruckus over vaccines.
