Cannabis blocks COVID

I’m often telling people about the amazing power of cannabis. It’s a super food and an essential product to our bodies.

Now further research shows both the “Marijuana” and “Hemp” forms contain acids that attack and stop the SARS COV-2 from being able to enter the cells.

HempMyLife comments:

I know from efforts in my community that Cannabis can be checked with a Spectrometer. It appears now we’ve got a hand held portable
Raman spectrometer that can check your Cannabis for THC now. It used to be a big machine that could do it in a lab. Now you can bring it with you!

I think this is a good thing for the part that we’ve had so many people trying to move cannabis CBD/Hemp products and getting nailed and detained as they can’t figure out it’s not ‘Marijuana’ (0.03< THC really only difference). They are both a superfood and amazing for you. If the feds will allow the ‘Hemp’ variety the be used while we’re sorting the medical laws we should be able to access it. Hopefully this helps that plight.

Study: Having Cannabis ‘In Your System’ Doesn’t Mean It’s Unsafe to Drive (web news)

It’s good to see some more insight into the safety to drive ‘on cannabis’. I’ve had to face this myself and some of their ideas are crazy (IMO). They have said in some studies that your impaired up to 48 hrs later.

Others, your not at all. Which I personally agree with. Similar to your Rx. Know how your affected before using machines! That includes cars. Things that make it so your ‘out of your mind’ you should take safety first and refrain from usage till sober. Some people experience different levels of this. Some people must take certain medications responsibly too.

See what a Canada study found:

Ben and Cannabis for PTSD

Ben served in Iraq. His time in Fallujah etched itself permanently into his consciousness.
Like so many Veterans, Ben is still at war… though now, the fray rages largely in his mind and his dreams.

Post traumatic stress is not a “syndrome”. It is an injury…

When physical and/or mental trauma exceeds one’s tolerance, a wound is suffered. That wound more than likely will go untreated, because its unseen by most, and, more often than not, misunderstood by the one afflicted.

Cannabis has proven itself to be therapeutically essential to so many afflicted with Post Traumatic Stress.

Cannabis is nontoxic. Cannabis is food. Cannabis is the single most important medicine of the 21st century.

New Hemp Law In MO

SS SCS HCS HB 2034 — INDUSTRIAL HEMP

Missouri is got a new law to address Cannabis “Hemp” and its use in Missouri. Making it the 40th state to take on some “Hemp” in Agriculture laws.

New Hemp law:

  • Does not require hemp growers to use certified seeds.
  • Allows the Missouri Crop Improvement Association to “collect seeds from wild cannabis plants,” first-of-its-kind language in a state law to account for so-called “ditch weed” already growing throughout Missouri.
  • Allows farmers to import seeds from other states or countries if they wish.
  • Limits THC content to 0.3%.
  • Requires hemp growers to devote 10-40 acres to hemp if total statewide hemp acreage exceeds 2,000.
  • Hemp can’t be considered an “adulterant” when added to food.
  • Requires state agriculture regulators to “explore the option of transporting samples from Missouri to contiguous states” for the purpose of testing for pesticides.
  • Allows unlicensed hemp growers to keep their plants if they pay a $500 fine and apply for a hemp license within 30 days.

Another study that raw cannabis is AMAZING!

Another study comes about that shows raw cannabis, that contains THC-A rather than THC has some superior qualities. THC-A has neuroprotective aspects shown in many of the studies. The raw cannabis contains THC-A and whole set of unbroken (heat breaks some down, not just THC-A) cannabis to be absorbed though your system, as well as terpenes, EFAs – Omegas, Chlorophyll (great for you) plant proteins and more.
