Doctors are welcoming an inquiry into the prescriptions from medicinal cannabis clinics. The Medical Council's leading the investigation following patient complaints they weren't properly briefed on non-cannabis options at the clinics, or about the ongoing costs and side-effects of cannabis. The Royal College of GPs Medical Director Luke Bradford says regulation of the clinics is overdue. "Medicinal cannabis is lacking in evidence and should only be used once all other options have been trialled. And that's not happening in these clinics."

England is to have a new National Forest. The Western Forest will be planted across Bristol, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and Somerset. It's the first national forest in 30 years. The government is putting £7.5 million towards it, with the same amount expected from the private sector and charities. The aim is to plant 2,500 hectares of woodland by 2030 and more by 2050. The National Forest chief executive says it won't be created at the expense of farmland.Biosecurity at our borders is a big issue. As we've previously reported, port health authorities have warned that the post-Brexit checking system isn't working and illegal meat is being smuggled into the country. A member of the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health's port health expert panel says there isn't enough money and the system is under pressure. A chemist and tomato grower have pooled their expertise to set up a cannabis farm in the English countryside. It's a high-tech £26 million greenhouse that is licensed by the Home Office to grow medicinal cannabis for the pharmaceutical industry, and its technology means it can harvest cannabis flowers 52 weeks of the year.Presenter: Charlotte Smith Producer: Rebecca Rooney

The New Zealand Drug Trend Survey (NZDTS) for 2024 has been released, and results have revealed an increase in participation in the 2020 Medicinal Cannabis Scheme. The percentage of people with prescriptions for medicinal cannabis increased from just 9% in 2022 and 2023, to 37% last year, while the percentage of users who have never asked for prescriptions decreased from 85% to 60%. Producer Athena spoke to Associate Professor at the Massey University College of Health, Marta Rychert, about the medicinal benefits of cannabis, and what the survey results suggest about the current culture surrounding cannabis.
Bhang has been mentioned in the Vedas; the use of cannabis as a medicinal boon has been mentioned in a lot of Indian scriptures for thousands of years, and it has been used in Ayurveda. During the British era, the colonisers looked down upon cannabis usage among Indians. They were familiar with alcohol but not with ganja and they considered it beneath them. So, it is the recent history of cannabis in India that has made it taboo. But it is still the most used "illicit" narcotic in the country. In India, with even something that's illegal, if it's culturally appropriate, a lot of people will tun a blind eye. This is so especially in the north of the country. India is very complex and its perspectives towards this plant are also very complex and divisive. In places like Uttarakhand and Himachal, the attitude to cannabis is different; in the south, in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and Kerala, even openly talking about using it is a big no-no" Karan Madhok, author, 'Ananda; An Exploration of Cannabis in India' talks to Manjula Narayan about everything from Lord Shiva and the availability of bhang in Banaras, Manipur's Satjal and Kawariyas to the immense economic potential of the plant, its medicinal uses, the movement for its decriminalization, and the road ahead for this ancient Indian weed

The head doctor of a medicinal cannabis clinic responds to concerns his sector has begun to look more like a recreational market.
There's concern in the health sector over medicinal cannabis being treated as a one-stop-shop for illnesses. A study published in today's Medical Journal reveals the products are becoming more psychoactive, with higher THC levels. The lead author says many GPs aren't confident in prescribing medicinal cannabis themselves. Massey University Researcher Chris Wilkins told Mike Hosking it is an evolving market, still in its early stages. He says patients should have multiple treatment options outside of medicinal cannabis. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The medicinal cannabis industry in South Africa has been evolving rapidly over the past few years, driven by legislative changes, increasing local and international demand, and investment interest. In this episode, Alec Yardley, production supervisor at Karoo Bioscience, speaks about cannabis cultivation.
The medicinal cannabis market has been a long, hard road for NZ players and the patience of retail investors is wearing thin. We talk to Ruatoria based Rua Bioscience about why it's pinning its hopes on a pivot from cultivation and manufacturing, to selling cannabis genetics overseas. Rua CEO Paul Naske sees significant growth as new legal frameworks in western countries make way for the medicinal cannabis market —estimated to be just 10 percent of the black market. And we hear about Rua's compassionate programme that helps those prescribed medicinal cannabis but can't afford it.

The medicinal cannabis industry says changes to drug laws that have finally taken effect will be a game changer.
Advocates are calling for a legal defence for unimpaired drivers prescribed medicinal cannabis who test positive at roadside drug tests in Victoria. Medical Cannabis has been legal in Australia since 2016, yet under Victorian law, as in many other jurisdictions except Tasmania, having cannabis in your system is prohibited. Despite relying on medicinal cannabis to ease pain and suffering caused by a chronic illness, people like Alice and Will could face legal consequences for breaking the state's laws.
Marijuana is not conducive to mind control due to its mind expanding properties that open neuron pathways in the brain.MK Ultra mind control requires shutting down neuron pathways in the brain to heighten suggestibility.Since mind control is being used to usher in a slave society agenda some term New World Order, the cannabis herb continues to be demonized through strategic misinformation. Intelligence insider Mark Phillips, who was working the highest levels of intelligence mind sciences for the sole/soul purpose of preserving the sanctity of free thought, was outraged to see pertinent medical information on benefits of cannabis suppressed under National Security. Mark also found other birthright information that is our defense against mind control buried under secrecy along with effective methods to heal from traumatic repressed memory. Thanks to Mark reminding me that it is within us all to heal from trauma, I reclaimed my free thought free will after decades of MK Ultra mind control. In turn, I detailed these healing methods I successfully used in PTSD: Time to Heal. Now people all over the world are using these methods to heal from varying levels of trauma, abuse, indoctrination, and/or control! It astounds me how many people I hear from who ask how to use medicinal cannabis for healing. Since medical information on how to use this natural herb has been buried under National Security, misinformation, misdirection, and Big Pharma diversions for so long, I am compelled to detail what worked for me and share it with you here now.Mark had taken my daughter and me to the safety and serenity of Alaska for healing, and cannabis is legal there. It was 1988, and since then varying levels of legalization have swept the nation. Check your state laws on cannabis/CBDs. Since cannabis use had been strictly forbidden under MK Ultra mind control, I deprogrammed the program first by writing it out. I found my programming against the herb even extended into media's repetitive narrative and cult/occult religions hellbent on controlling their tithing followers.I strongly recommend that you, too, write out any programming and conditioning against marijuana you may have experienced. This will diffuse any apprehensions or paranoia, allowing deeper relaxation while freeing you to receive the medicinal benefits. Not everyone responds the same to cannabis, so be sure to listen to your body. I listened to my body while using medicinal cannabis for numerous physical needs including the opening of neuron pathways. Need for restful sleep was crucial, so I used cannabis at night to help me relax my over-active adrenal system, stop night terrors, and improve digestion. Memories began flashing due to neuron pathways opening up around repressed memory from the herb. Mark cautioned me to make note of the flashes to write out further with a clear mind in the morning.I kept a notebook and pen within reach to write out what I saw in the flashes of memory. If there was an obvious trigger attached to it, I made note of it as well. Repressed memory flashing is akin to an alarm system demanding attention. By making note, the alarm system was deactivated so my past could no longer intrude on my present.The next morning, I would look at my notes which were now in themselves triggers to re-access those memories that were attempting to surface while smoking cannabis. With a clear mind and paper and pen in hand, I would begin asking myself questions as suggested in PTSD: Time to Heal to write out my memory in full photographic detail.

Len May is visiting with me today about the benefits of medicinal cannabis, the endocrine system, and genetics and how they all tie together. The body releases hormones and endo-cannabinoids in order to regulate itself and various biological functions. Many people are deficient in various nutrients and hormones, but the body is wired to interact with certain supplements like cannabis.

In the final instalment of the summer science series, science communication students tackle two controversial topics: medicinal cannabis, and AI consciousness.
One of the things I am so grateful for is the ability to see the way that many doctors approach health & well-being shifting globally on a massive scale & beginning to utilize things such as plant medicines as alternative modalities for healing. In my opinion, this amazing paradigm shift we are experiencing will open up the doorway to true healthcare, aka preventative medicine, rather than what we currently have which is best described as sick care, aka once you're sick, you then go to receive care. Today's guest on the show is a man who, along with being a medical doctor from Australia, is a leading voice & proponent behind the utilization of Cannabis for healthcare & well-being as a whole & in this episode, we dive into his background & story of moving through addiction & the typical medical model both for himself & his patients, his own journey into Cannabis & the profound benefits he has found within the plant & much, much more.Show Notes: (0:42) Dr. James Stewart's Bio.

Safety Profile of Medicinal Cannabis - The safety profile of cannabis is relatively good, with studies suggesting it is less addictive than alcohol. - Addictive potential is associated with high doses of THC and prior history of substance abuse. Legal Implications of Driving Under Medicinal Cannabis - Patients prescribed THC-containing products may face legal restrictions when driving, even when not impaired. - Legal limitations can impact patients' daily lives and choices. Advocacy for Legal Changes - Ongoing advocacy efforts aim to change drug law regulations and educate law enforcement about the benefits and responsible use of medicinal cannabis. Medicinal Cannabis as an Option - Medicinal cannabis, despite potential side effects, is considered a valuable option for patients and has a lower risk profile than many traditional medications. Personalised Treatment with Medicinal Cannabis - Medicinal cannabis treatment is tailored to individual patients, taking into account their unique needs. Awareness - Medicinal cannabis is evolving, with growing awareness and increased access for patients in Australia. - Collaboration between medical professionals, advocates, and politicians is driving progress in this field.

We would love to see that tbh. This week was Fitzy, Wippa and Kate's first week back from being on break and the pressure was high to bring all the entertainment. Wippa talked about popping his pool-ring, Kate wasn't interested in story about how big the Eiffel tower was and Fitzy just wanted to talk about sheep getting high. They knocked it out of the park!

The medicinal cannabis sector is welcoming the relaxation of rules surrounding the manufacture and exporting of their products. MedSafe, which regulates medicines and medical devices, says the new rules mean a wider range of plants can be grown locally, and more cannabis products exported. The changes will come into effect later this year. Kathryn speaks to Paul Naske, Chief Executive of Rua Bioscience, an east coast medicinal cannabis company and Graham Gulbransen, an Auckland GP who has been prescribing legal medicinal cannabis since March 2017.
