In this special episode we get together with chemist and Cannabis science educator Mark Scialdone, PhD to talk about the passing of "the godfather of Cannabis science", Raphael Mechoulam, PhD. After his passing, many media and news outlets failed to accurately portray Mechoulam's contributions or his place in the grand story of Cannabis science - so Dr. Scialdone and I decided to try to do our part to set the record straight. Along the way we spin off into talking about a variety of other topics like delta-8-THC synthesis from CBD, common misunderstandings around Cannabis chemistry, why the boiling point of THC is almost always incorrectly reported, and more.

O Dr. Raphael Mechoulam, professor de Química Medicinal na Universidade Hebraica de Jerusalém e considerado o pesquisador mais famoso de cannabis do mundo, morreu em Israel aos 92 anos. Ele foi responsável pela descoberta e isolamento do tetra-hidrocanabinol (THC) lá em 1963, sendo reconhecido como o pai do THC e pioneiro na pesquisa de cannabis. Ele também estudou a estrutura do canabidiol (CBD) e afirmou na década de 1980 que a cannabis poderia substituir até 20% de todos os medicamentos farmacêuticos se fosse legalizada. Dr. Mechoulam continuou seus estudos sobre canabinoides nas décadas seguintes e a notícia de sua morte foi lamentada por colegas da comunidade científica e também pelos ativistas pró cannabis.

Dr Luis Otavio Caboclo nesse podcast detalha as formas da planta Cannabis: para uso recreativo a planta tem altas concentrações de THC (cannabis sativa) e para uso medicinal a planta tem altas concentrações de CBD (cannabis sativa com muito canabidióde) e baixas concentrações de THC conhecida como cânhamo. Existem mais de 120 substancias (terrenos e flavonóides, entre outros) na planta cannabis sendo as duas principais CBD e THC. A cannabis é estudada há mais de 2000 mil anos antes de Cristo para tratar certas condições clinicas na China. Em Bagdá (Mesopotâmia) no século VII um médico usou a Cannabis para fins medicinas. No século XIX um médico inglês usou a Cannabis Índica na Índia para tratar uma forma de epilepsia grave (síndrome de West). Esse médico levou esse conhecimento para o Reino Unido que incluiu a Cannabis na farmacopéia britânica e nessa corrente também foi incluída na farmacopéia americana. Porém, na década de 40 percebeu-se os efeitos psicotrópicos da Cannabis com alto teor de THC e dessa forma, o governo americano proibiu o uso de Cannabis para qualquer forma de uso e consequente interrupção das pesquisas. Na década de 60 em Israel, Raphael Mechoulam iniciou novamente as pesquisas com Cannabis a partir de uma porção de maconha apreendida pela polícia. Este cientista foi o primeiro a identificar as moléculas CBD e THC. Na década de 70 professor Elisaudo Carlini publicou um periódico com tratamento de crises epiléticas com CBD em animais sem efeitos no comportamento deles. Mais tarde esse mesmo professor publicou um artigo com 6 pacientes que foram tratados com ótimos resultados com CBD. Na década de 90 identificou-se o sistema endocanabidióide onde achou-se receptores para o CBD em varias partes do corpo humano (pele, olhos, sistema gastrointeistal, etc..) inclusive no cérebro que são os principais alvos de CBD. As principais medicações com Cannabis sativa: 1) CBD isolado e purificado, sem THC, 2) Extrato integral da planta com CBD, THC e flavonóides e no Brasil a concentração de THC é de 0,2%, 3) Extrato integral sem THC, 4) CDB com THC com concentração mais alta de THC. Na pratica clinica é mais utilizada CBD isolado e Extrato integral de Canbbis. Efeito Entourage é o efeito que quando todas as substancias da Cannabis atuam juntas elas melhoram os efeitos do CBD. Principais indicações: Eplepsias refratárias (síndromes de Dravet, West, Lenox Gastaut, entre outras), dor crônica, espasticidade em pacientes com esclerose múltipla e caquexia com anorexia em pacientes com AIDS. Estas indicações tem nível de evidencia forte. Ainda com níveis de evidencias baixos: Autismo, controle comportamental de pacientes com Alzheimer, entre outros. Acesso no Brasil: desde 2014 a Cannabis foi liberada para uso medicinal no Brasil. A primeira forma de acesso foi a importação direta para pessoas que precisam da medicação, porém este processo é demorado e trabalhoso. Recentemente as farmácias foram autorizadas a importar as medicações o que facilitou o acesso à Cannabis. Algumas ONGS conseguiram autorizações liminares para plantar Cannabis no Brasil e extrair o óleo da planta e fornecer para pessoa de baixo poder aquisitivo, pois o produto na farmácia tem alto custo; atualmente estado de SP vai fornecer a medicação custeada pelo SUS. Há famílias que tem autorização judicial para plantar a Cannabis para consumo próprio do CBD. #cannabis #CBD #sistemaendocanabiode #eplepsia #dor #autismo #alzheimer #THC

Raphael Mechoulam es uno de los científicos más importantes de la química farmacéutica. Es quién comenzó a investigar la planta Cannabis Sativa L. También es a él a quién se acredita el descubrimiento de los principios activos esenciales y la estructura química de esta planta, así como el descubrimiento y funcionamiento del sistema endocannabinoide humano. Nació en Sofía (Bulgaria) en 1930. Creció en una adinerada familia judía, la cual terminó viéndose forzada a abandonar su lugar de origen debido al creciente antisemitismo. En la época de 1944 su padre sobrevivió a su estadía en un campo de concentración nazi, antes que toda la familia se trasladara a Israel en 1949. Fue allí donde se especializó en bioquímica por la Universidad Hebrea de Jerusalén en 1952 y, adicionalmente realizó un doctorado en química por el Instituto Weizmann de Rehovot. https://cannamedicol.com

Najhujši obliki možganskega raka, glioblastomi, doslej ni prišla do živega niti kemoterapija. Skupina raziskovalcev, ki jo vodi prof.dr. Tamara Lah Turnšek z Nacionalnega inštituta za biologijo je odkrila presenetljivo sposobnost določene mešanice kanabinoida konoplje kanabinerola, CBG v kombinaciji s kanabidiolom, CBD, ki glede na njihove predklinične raziskave povzroči programirano celično smrt glioblastome. CBG ni psihoaktiven kanabinoid konoplje, in je eden manj raziskanih od sicer več kot stotih, ki jih je v 60-ih letih odkril še delujoči izraelski kemik Raphael Mechoulam s Hebrejske univerze v Jeruzalemu. Glede na tudi v zdravniških krogih zakoreninjeno prepričanje o konoplji kot »drogi«, čeprav že vrabci čivkajo, da je najbolj razvpita le ena njena komponenta, psihoaktivni kanabinoid THC, je omenjeno odkritje, v pogovoru ga povzame Tamara Lah Turnšek, nedvomno vzpodbuda za nove raziskave ene najstarejših kulturnih in industrijskih rastlin, konoplje.

The Israel scientist Raphael Mechoulam has been researching what's thought to be the world's most popular drug since the 1960s. In 1964, he isolated Tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC – the compound that gets cannabis-users high. Later, Professor Mechoulam discovered another compound called CBD, or Cannabidiol, which has medical benefits without any kind of psychoactive effect. Recently, CBD has had a revolutionary impact on treating health conditions such as epilepsy. Prof Mechoulam talks to Claire Bowes. PHOTO: A marihuana plant in India (Getty Images)

Grandpa Bill today ASKS God -Whom else has asked God? Moses asked, “Why have you dealt ill with your servant?” Numbers 11:11 David asked, “Oh Lord why do you stand far off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble?” Psalm 10:1 Habbakuk asked, “Why do you make me look at injustice? Why do you tolerate wrongdoing?” Habbakuk 1:3 Job asked, “Why have you made me your target?” Job 7:20 The disciples asked, “Why was this man born blind?” John 9:2 Jesus on the cross asked God “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?” Matthew 27:46Grandpa Bills Grunts & Groans today Grandpa Bill asks Poll & Survey+Questions Have You Given Up on Your Health and Wellness Regime?

Diseases are just symptoms of one or more of the above. There is nothing more compatible, or more effective, than the right combination and quantity of whole earthen resources(herbs, clays, sea vegetables, etc.)to give the body exactly what it needs to restore health on its own. Air, water, sunlight, prana, plant-based phyto-nutrients and soil-based minerals are the body's most original food sources.Properly nourished with whole earthen resources, the body will have what it needs to simply clean house, build strength, restore proper working order, and heal itself. When is 10XPURE™ CBD combined with CBDa better than CBD alone? I think you would agree, “It's not what you buy, it's what your body absorbs.” Did you know there is NO CBD in the hemp plant? There is CBDa, but it is not stable, and once processed, converts to a secondary molecule, CBD. Unfortunately, this process destroys most or all the unstable acids such as CBDa. Raphael Mechoulam, considered the "Godfather of Cannabis" research has said, Cannabinoid acids, referring to CBDa, are compounds that are up to 1,000 times more potent than CBD for specific therapeutic potentials. So, why buy CBD when you can have CTFO's 10xPURE™ patented oil, which includes a proprietary blend of full spectrum cannabinoids inclusive of CBD, and the cannabinoid acids such as CBDa and CBGa? Our 10xPURE™ is exclusive to CTFO and is what makes our 10xPURE™ products so unique and effective. Why 10xPURE™? “Don't ask for CBD.

Justin Benton and his wife are the founders and owners of 101CBD products.  They created their Organic, Raw, Whole-Plant, True Full Spectrum CBDa oil to assist their child after a diagnosis of severe, regressive autism at age two. Their relentless search for a holistic solution led them to raw hemp as well as lifestyle changes.  Having experienced a miracle for their family, they are on a mission to educate the world about the benefits of raw CBDa, and provide the highest quality Hemp products so other families can try the same thing that worked for theirs.   The early days of their search led them to https://www.healtheuropa.eu/dr-raphael-mechoulam-revolutionary-cannabis-research/93049/ (Dr. Raphael Mechoulam.) A special shown on CNN with Dr. Sanjay Gupta told the story of a young girl, https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/08/health/charlotte-figi-cbd-marijuana-dies/index.html (Charlotte Figi) who suffered from hundreds of seizures a day. When treated with this miracle plant in its raw form, her seizures were almost non-existant. https://hightimes.com/culture/people/higher-profile-dr-william-courtney/ (Dr. William Courtney) the man whose work introduced Justin to juicing raw cannabis. And the guy who proposes high doses of raw THCA as an antioxidant and for reversing certain medical conditions. When not heated, these strains do not make you high but have enormous benefits. Justin tells an amazing story about how fast this juiced version of hemp helped his son. From kicking and screaming tantrum to calm, playing with other kids, like nothing was ever wrong and it happened within minutes. He is clear about CBD being part of a whole health program to help his child. “And it's not just CBD. You've got to do the other work, too. You are what you eat. The water has got to be clean, reverse osmosis, natural spring water. You need to make sure that you exercise, and sleep needs to be right.”He predicts the future for hemp is juice bars and farmers markets so we can juice it at home. I didn't know that hemp has all twenty-one amino acids, and a perfect balance of omega 3s and 6s. There are different ways that you can consume the plant. Capsule, obviously, they're going to dry it and there's going to be some denaturing. Anything like that goes through digestive system and stomach acid, your liver, your kidney before it gets processed into your blood. The real absorption rate of a capsule or even an edible anything is around five or six percent absorption rate.Taken sublingually you can get up to 70 percent absorption by holding it there for seven minutes under your tongue.People will also make suppositories by mixing it with cocoa butter and freezing it. Absorption then climbs to 99%. About the taste? “You just got to grin and bear it.” Their product does come flavored. Bacon flavored CBD? They've got it. Besides he said, when your pain goes away or is greatly reduced, when you can finally sleep, when your auto immune issue goes away, that makes dealing with the taste worthwhile, right? My testimonial for their product: I had gotten some upsetting news, a possible medical diagnosis no one wants. My anxiety was off the charts and I could not calm my mind. I knew this was exactly the kind of thing CBD is known for relieving so I took the recommended amount, held it under my tongue for as close to 5 minutes as possible. Within 10 minutes I could focus. I was able to think positively again. I'm a believer. (PS I'm fine, the tests were negative) Justin explained why this works so quickly.  Caveat—although many CBD enthusiasts recommend taking it daily for health, I found that I was a bit off when taking it twice a day as recommended. For now, I'll use it on an as needed basis. How about skin care products, does it really make a difference? Another testimonial from moi.

Listen In;  You all know efficacy is very important to me so I went to the source.  Listen to this article By Leafly written December 13,2016.  This is an interview with DR. Lumir Hanus Who Discovered the First Endocannabinoid2017 marks the 25th anniversary of one of the most important discoveries in cannabinoid science. On March 24, 1992, Lumír Hanuš, a Czech analytical chemist working in Israel with American pharmacologist William Devane, isolated the first known endocannabinoid in the human brain. They named it anandamide, after the Sanskrit word for joy or bliss.Both researchers were working—and Mr. Hanuš still is—at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, on the team of Raphael Mechoulam, the world’s leading expert on cannabinoids. Nearly three decades earlier, in 1964, Mechoulam became the first to isolate tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC.“It has become clear that the healing potential of the whole plant is stronger than isolated compounds on their own.”The discovery of anandamide confirmed that the human brain produces cannabinoids of its own, which bind with cannabinoid receptors throughout the brain and body. Evidence suggests these cannabinoid receptors are involved in motor coordination, memory processing, control of appetite, pain modulation, neuroprotection, and more.In the years to follow, thousands of studies have been conducted on the endocannabinoid system and on cannabinoids of all stripes. Meanwhile, additional cannabinoids continue to be discovered.This podcast consist of three very important medical research papers I would like to share with you to understand Cannabinoids  (CBD) - (THC) - (CBG) - (CBN), and more.  Listen to the science of it all Disclaimer:  The podcast is not intended to diagnose, treat, or claim a cure.  If you need medical condition, please contact your medical provider.If you would like to opt-in & stay connected to the Auspicious Wellness Coaching Circle, feel free to click the link below and signup.  Sign up and stay up today as we release new coaching products, freebies, recipe demonstrations, announcements, and more.  Click the link and submit the signup form.  Let us stay motivated together.  See you then.  https://forms.aweber.com/form/33/5949233.htm #podcaster#podcaster#DebraSmithTorrence#AuspiciousWelnessPodcast#BestPodcastonSpotify#WellnessPodcast#WomensHealthPodcast#SelfImprovementPodcast#wellness#Mindfullfess#anxiety#Stress#MotivationalPodcast#LiveYourBestLife#InstagramPodcast#Radio#Youtube#RadioShow#NewEpisode#Podcast#PodcastLife#PodcasterOfInstagram   Contact: 833-287-7424 Ext 700   Debbie Smith-TorrenceWebsite:  www.auspiciouswellness.com 

We heard Eloise speak about cannabis and seniors at CannMed2019 - a huge, very serious medical cannabis conference where we also met Dr. Raphael Mechoulam, the Godfather of Modern Cannabis Research. Every one who is anyone in the medical cannabis space was there! ELOISE THEISEN, is a board-certified Adult-Geriatric Nurse Practitioner who has cultivated a wealth of knowledge and data for using cannabis to treat a broad range of conditions and diseases, especially those that commonly affect seniors. Eloise is a co-founder and Chief Visionary Officer of Radicle Health, developing ongoing cannabis education for healthcare professionals and the community as well as patient care and industry training. An more recently Eloise has launched Leaf411, The first FREE cannabis nurse hotline. Prior to Radicle Health, Eloise also founded Green Health Consultants, a medical cannabis clinic that helped patients use cannabis to help treat chronic and age-related illness and was one of the first healthcare practitioners to bring a clinical dosing regimen to the cannabis space. She's treated more than 5,500 patients using cannabis. Eloise previously served on the board of the American Cannabis Nurses Association and is now the President. She helped in the development of A.C.N.A.'s first online core curriculum, providing over eight hours of educational content as well as continuing education credits for nurses. Her work has been featured in Newsweek and the SF Chronicle, among others. There are very few healthcare practitioners in the US with a comparable level of cannabis expertise and experience. Joining NP Theisen to talk about anxiety and depression include experts in elder care and specialists in cannabinoid medicine with first hand experience on the frontlines in California's North Bay Area. We appreciate that they're always sharing their knowledge at medical symposia, events and now Zoom meetings. Dr. Phillip Grob, Geriactric Psychiatrist with 28 years experience.

Our latest guest is Professor Raphael Mechoulam. Professor Mechoulam is the first researcher to isolate THC and CBD. For that achievement and the decades of research into the endocannabinoid system that followed, Professor Mechoulam is often called the "Godfather of cannabis research".  Since his research began in the 1960s, Professor Mechoulam has received numerous academic awards. Most recently he received The Harvey Prize from the Technion Israel Institute of Technology in the Human Health category. It's a pretty big deal when you consider more than 30% of Harvey laureates since 1986 have gone onto receive the Nobel prize.  Professor Mechoulam has presented at every CannMed event, either in person or via submitted video, and is the chair of our Scientific Advisory Board.  In our conversation, we discuss:  Professor Mechoulam's incredible career The disappointing lack of cannabis medicine clinical trials The surprising fact that the two major endogenous cannabinoids (anandamide and 2AG) have never been administered to humans The challenge of researching the entourage effect The benefits of cannabinoid acids The newly discovered anandamide-like compounds that could be used to treat addiction And more  Thanks to our Sponsor: Cannabis Science and Technology Cannabis Science and Technology focuses on educating the legal cannabis industry about the science and technology of analytical testing, quality control/assurance, extraction, cultivation, and processing/manufacturing. In October Cannabis Science & Technology launched a new brand, Cannabis Patient Care, which is an educational resource for patients, doctors, nurses, pharmacists, and caregivers on the latest research, benefits, and treatment options cannabis provides for a variety of illnesses.

Il 5 novembre 2020, il professor Raphael Mechoulam, ampiamente riconosciuto come tra i più grandi scienziati nel campo della ricerca sui cannabinoidi, e che è ancora un ricercatore attivo, festeggerà il suo novantesimo compleanno. Per questa occasione Viola Brugnatelli vi racconta la sua storia sul podcast Cannabis Italia e ricordatevi che siete ancora in tempo ad iscrivervi alle molte conferenze che vengono organizzate con e per il professore, come IACM, CannX, ICRS.

Pc discusses an article from source republished on NEO420 News. The article outlines how the US has been funding cannabis research in Israel for 50 years.The article details how it all started. An unknown senator had a son who used cannabis. The senator wanted to know what the cannabis was doing for his son. Since there was no research options in US then he accepted the request of young research at Hebrew University.The researcher was Raphael Mechoulam. Raphael became a doctor and ultimately was responsible for defining the cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. He is the father of cannabis, father of thc, and father of cbd.

Where did modern cannabis research start?This week we're honoured and privileged to be joined by the legendary Professor Raphael Mechoulam - heading up the Medical Chemistry department at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Dubbed ‘the godfather of cannabis research', Prof. Mechoulam has been a pioneer in the field, and over many decades has had a major influence on our understanding of the cannabis plant with his groundbreaking research and discoveries. In this very special episode of The Cannabis Conversation, we explore the history of cannabis research, alongside taking a detailed look at the function and physiology of the endocannabinoid system.→ View full show notes and summary here: https://www.cannabis-conversation.com/blogs/episode80About Prof. MechoulamDr. Raphael Mechoulam is an award-winning Israeli organic chemist who has been studying the cannabis plant for over 50 years. Dr. Mechoulam is best known for discovering the Endocannabinoid System and first isolating the two primary compounds, CBD and THC. He is a professor of Medicinal Chemistry at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel and has published over 350 scientific articles, primarily focused on the chemistry and pharmacology of Cannabinoids. His work has awarded him with many honors and awards, including the Israel Prize (2000), NIDA Discovery Award (2011) and many others.ResourcesProf. Raphael Mechoulam's Wikipedia Page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raphael_Mechoulam‘Dr Raphael Mechoulam and his revolutionary cannabis research' - Article by Medical Cannabis Network:https://www.healtheuropa.eu/dr-raphael-mechoulam-revolutionary-cannabis-research/93049/‘Cannabinoid pharmacology: the first 66 years' paper by Roger G Pertwee: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1760722/

Artikel lesen: https://hnf.link/RSp4 Der israelische Wissenschaftler Dr. Raphael Mechoulam hat ein neues Cannabinoid kreiert, dass potenter als THC und CBD ist und bei der Behandlung von Angststörungen, Entzündungen und Übelkeit helfen könnte.

I tried putting my finger on the best part of this episode but found it impossible. I mean, too much to choose from. It must have been Dana from Ft Lauderdale, right? A longtime CBD skeptic now calling CBD, “The Miracle Bottle”. Dana now rubs it on her tennis elbow, into her temples for migraines, on her collarbone when that aches and it helps her anxiety. And that's only the beginning of the list! She even sent some to her cousin abroad who burnt his hand on a grill and that worked! Then there was Jake Madar, a recent college graduate who just finished studying with Dr. Raphael Mechoulam in Israel and learned things there that he could never learn in the U.S. His advice? Use it everyday for sleep issues and anxiety and even with medications that work, CBD can still be utilized in a safe, positive way. Doc G chimed in with important CBD research being done at the University of Arizona (his alma mater) and dropped this bombshell: “Politics and myth have hidden the benefits of this effective medical tool for decades…until now. Guys, if you're not on board yet with CBD, better hurry up. The train's filling up…

It was a true honour for us to speak with and interview Dr. Raphael Mechoulam - quite literally, the Godfather of Cannabis. It was a fascinating – and in places, very funny – conversation with this amazing man. A must listen for anyone working in the cannabis industry because... well, we all have jobs thanks to his pioneering research!

Gregory D. Gorgas, President and  CEO, explains what pharmaceuticals his company is developing to work with the body's endocannabinoid system. He touches on How our endocannabinoid system was discovered and how it works, The ways Artelo Biosciences approaches the development of pharmaceuticals, and What three products they are currently working toward releasing. Mr. Gorgas begins with how Dr. Raphael Mechoulam  discovered our endocannabinoid system in Israel as he researched the effects of cannabis, trying to pinpoint what receptors it targeted. This allowed him to identify several receptors in our body, discovering this powerful system. Mr. Gorgas explains that the body makes chemicals that target these receptors and the cannabis plant mimics what the body already makes. He then discusses why his company is working on pharmaceuticals to address this system. He says that it's a powerful communication system throughout the body and handles responses to inflammation, stress, and any stimulus which the body would want to address. When the body is overwhelmed, introducing a chemical from outside the body may help this system.  He then explains the three ways Artelo Biosciences is trying to target this system through pharmaceuticals: First, a naturally-occurring cannabinoid that's been altered to increase appetite yet avoid the euphoria or high state as a treatment for cancer patients; second, a cannabinoid called EBD with anti-anxiety and anti-inflammatory properties; and third, a fatty-acid binding protein-5 inhibitor originally researched as a cancer treatment.

When Catherine Jacobson's three-year-old son had exhausted all of the treatments available for his rare, life-threatening form of epilepsy, she wasn't about to just give up.“I began hearing stories from families with children with severe epilepsy and that they were treating their kids with cannabis and they were reporting good outcomes,” Dr. Jacobson said on The Cannabis Enigma Podcast. “So of course, I was interested.”Those families, however, were making their own medicines from cannabis and there was no way to guarantee consistency. So she put her PhD in neuroscience to use and set up a laboratory in her garage to make her son a pure CBD extract.Today Jacobson is the vice president of regulatory and medical affairs at Tilray, one of the world's largest medical cannabis companies, after starting its clinical research division.“I was absolutely infuriated to find out that we knew CBD was an anticonvulsant but nobody had developed it for 30 years,” she explained, referencing a 1980 clinical study conducted by medical cannabis pioneer Raphael Mechoulam.“So I had a decision to make,” she said of her decision to pursue a career in cannabis research. “I knew […] that there are other patients out there living with other diseases besides epilepsy who deserve access to quality medical cannabis products now — and they don't have time to wait for clinical development.”Edited and mixed by Michael Schaeffer Omer-Man.

Introducing a new movement dedicated to growing fair trade, environmentally sustainable cannabis that also provides small farmers with the one thing they need to thrive: a lucrative cash crop.Before introducing this episode I must apologize to Dr. Raphael Mechoulam, who is, apparently, a follower of this podcast. In Episode 70 (“The Strange Cannabis Illness that No One Understands”) I reported that Dr. Mechoulam thought the likely cause of this odd illness was strain or dose dependent. While that was part of what he said, I failed to offer his full explanation, which he made clear to me in an email dated Jan 10, 2020. “Hi, I do not recall stating that cannabinoid hyperemesis is strain dependent. I have published that it is probably an immune-type reaction. See attached.”https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3498425/Needless to say I’m honored to be corrected by the man known as ‘the OG of Cannabis Research’ and thrilled to know he’s listening. ☺On this new episode I’m happy to welcome back Jim Plamondon, the co-founder of the Thai Cannabis Corporation who joins us from Thailand to discuss the birth of the “Small Cannabis” movement. The premise is this: as more US states become legal, the price of North American cannabis is going to drop – this is already happening. At the same time as more countries around the globe legalize (Thailand did. Mexico plans to do so this year. India and Colombia are also heading in this direction) it’s crucial to establish a more economically sustainable future for small farmers who have been tending excellent sun-grown heritage strains such as Alcapulco Gold, Panama Red, Thai Stick, for hundreds—maybe thousands—of years. The first step to this project is organizing a global cannabis supply chain and that is precisely what the Small Cannabis Foundation is designed to do. As more markets open, big industrial scale cannabis currently grown in “greenhouses on the tundra” will flood the market with high potency but not so interesting varieties. Prices will plummet and excellent old world varieties grown in the subtropics will begin to make their way to those who want them. “Big cannabis will become worthless the minute great Thai Stick comes back into the country,” Plamondon contends. “Cocoas of Excellence” is one such program devoted to preserving the diversity of indigenous cocoa strains and at the same time providing income to farmers. Small Cannabis has similar aims.Plamondon is part dreamer, an essential quality to all visionaries, and part student of history who relies on Adam Smith’s time tested economic insights. As he points out, the cocoa, cotton and vanilla industries were established during the rush to colonize 300-400 years ago. They were wildly successful at enslaving vast numbers of people who depended on subsistence agriculture for their livelihood. Cannabis is one of the few new supply chains -- the internet makes import and fair trade transparent, traceable and enforceable. With good standards in place and a little bit of technology like QR codes and smart phones buyers will be able to know the farmer that cultivated their cannabis and be assured that he -- or in most cases, she -- got her a fair price for her labors, protected the environment and was not exploited along the way.Jim gives great interview – don’t miss his wit and the broad perspective with which he frames the issues.

A two-way interview between journalist Patricia Miller and Joe Dolce about the gut-wrenching illness called hyperemesis.A few weeks ago Patricia Miller, associate editor of Cannabis & Tech Today magazine, called to talk about hyperemesis, the strange and increasingly more reported illness that hits some cannabis users hard. Hyperemesis is defined as bouts of cyclical vomiting caused from combusting flower (i.e., smoking a joint), but trust me, what happens is way more painful than simple puking. It’s as if your stomach is being turned inside out – gut wrenching -- and it can last for hours, in extreme cases, days. The few scientific papers on it contend that it is followed by a compulsive desire to take hot showers. In my case I was so wasted after each bout I could barely crawl into bed, let alone stand in a shower. As one who always wants to be first on a trend, I was hit with hyperemesis while reporting Brave New Weed and about a half dozen times in the subsequent two years. I couldn’t understand how a plant that chemotherapy patients use to quell nausea would send me into paroxysms of puking. After months of investigating I never identified the cause but I did learn a lot about the chemistry and biology of the cannabis plant, and turned that into a book. There’s no consensus about what hyperemesis is or what detonates it. Dr. Raphael Mechoulam surmised it is dose or strain related. Others blame pesticides or other chemicals used in cultivation that have not been properly cleared from harvested bud. Others say it’s caused by today’s super strong weed that can clock in at 30% THC. My own experience elides all of these theories. I was smacked down after a fat dab as well as on the very first puff of a joint. As for the quality/variety of the herb, well, I’ve been privileged to inhale some of the finest, organic, sun-grown, pesticide-free weed grown in North America, so quality and variety aren’t the only culprits. Patricia proposed interviewing me about my experiences but I suggested we interview each other in hopes of informing more people who’ve been felled. I don’t think hyperemesis is necessarily a new illness; rather, I suspect more people are reporting it now that legalization has opened up the conversation. Some sufferers I’ve met have quit using completely to avoid any future misery. Personally, I’ve navigated a cautious path and have concluded that the only surefire way of inhaling flower without retching is through vaporization. My untested theory is that there is something in the plant matter itself that triggers the convulsions. Before this interview I asked a few chemists if they had come across any home grown remedies. The only response came from James Curran, who has appeared on Episode 67 of this podcast. He forwarded this study that identifies capsaicin, the fiery ingredient in cayenne pepper, as a possible antidote because it interferes with the biochemical triggering. And here’s a link to Miller’s report. Clearly, there’s more to learn, so if any of you out there in cannabisland have insights, observations or stories to share, let us know.

The Discovery of CBD In spite of the fact that CBD was thoroughly used for a wide range of reasons over thousands of years across the world. There remains a substantial amount about hemp and cannabis that we still don't know about. In fact, the most recent discovery about an individual cannabinoid wasn't actually made until 1940. according to this article www.leahsfitness.com/does-cbd-oil-work-for-pain-and-stress-relief/ , It was only at this time that Robert S. Cahn published his findings on the structure of Cannabinol (CBN). A couple of years later, a chemist based in the US at www.ucgardnercenter.com known as Roger Adams actually managed to isolate cannabidiol (CBD). This is one of the times that history was officially made as Adams officially isolated CBD for the very first time. It would be more than 20 years until THC would be effectively isolated too. And the accomplishment went to Dr. Raphael Mechoulam of the www.ecnsweb.com website in 1963, when he identified CBD's stereochemistry, as well as THC in 1964.   With a study conducted in 1978, he provided doses of 300 mgs of CBD on a daily basis for eight volunteers with medically diagnosed epilepsy. Within four months of these treatments, more than half of the group actually stopped having seizures reported in this article www.alternativemedicine.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-best-cbd-gummies/, while the remainder saw a marked decrease in the amount of seizures that they had. It was a landmark piece of research.. CBD As of Now During the latter decades of the 20th century, Dr. Lisa Matsuda of www.degreejungle.com sought to discover the functions of CBD, and actually uncovered the Endocannabinoid System (ECS). Interestingly, Dr Matsuda was the very first researcher to describe the underlying structure and function of CB1, which operates as a cannabinoid receptor. Meanwhile, the CBD2 receptor was discovered shortly therafter and a possible third receptor which is known as GPR55. The website www.vacfacts.info reported the CBD research in florida According to the website www.as1effect.com , One of the biggest breakthroughs for the field of CBDs occurred back in 1996 , when the state of California became the very first state in the USA to legalize the medicinal applications of CBD and marijuana for patients. Over the next four years, an additional seven states listed at www.womendailymagazine.com/cbd-for-sleep-why-you-should-give-cbd-oil-to-your-grandparents/ would follow California's example. Since then, there have been more than 33 states, including Washington DC, that now permit the medical application of CBD oil. In addition to this number, 11 of these same states, including the District of Columbia, actually permit recreational use CBD. While there are an increasing number of states within the USA that actually make use of CBD rported by the website www.smsmf.org to some capacity, they still remain federally illegal. Back in 2006, Charlotte Figi was diagnosed with Dravet's syndrome, which is an extremely rare kind of epilepsy that causes hundreds of seizures on a weekly basis.

Raphael Mechoulam, an Israeli organic chemist and professor of medicinal chemistry at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, remembers the letdown after his groundbreaking discoveries surrounding the structure of the cannabis compounds CBD and THC in 1963 and 1964, followed by clinical tests with CBD published in 1980. GO TO THIS CTFO SITE NOW “Not much happened,” Mechoulam said, noting that it would take more than 30 years before his clinical work on using CBD, or cannabidiol, to treat epilepsy became widely accepted. Greenwich Biosciences, which is owned by GW Pharmaceuticals, was able to develop the first cannabis-derived drug that built on Mechoulam’s research. The drug, Epidiolex, treats seizures associated with two rare forms of epilepsy and was approved by the FDA only last year. But even as his work laid the foundation for the modern cannabis industry and for understanding how cannabis interacts with the human body, a white whale eluded research: cannabis acids, which are compounds that are produced in the plant when it is alive and may be more potent than their better-known derivatives, such as CBD and THC. That changed on Monday, when Mechoulam and a group of researchers announced at a medical cannabis conference in Pasadena, California, that they have developed a process for creating synthetic, stable acids that are found within the plant, and that the synthetic acids, which include acid versions of CBD and THC, are now available for licensing to companies for drug development. The discovery paves the way for drug companies to potentially develop new drugs based on the acids for a variety of health issues such as psoriasis, arthritis, anxiety and inflammatory bowel disease. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bhsales/message

Ready to take your brain health to the next level? Ready to be proactive, or even reverse, the signs of brain aging? Then this episode is definitely for you! We are fortunate to have “Amazon” John Easterling, Plant Medicine Formulator, with us again this week. He dives into the plant medicine treasures he’s found in the Amazon Rainforest that beautifully support healthy brain function and help you ward off brain aging.   * * *   ABOUT "AMAZON JOHN" EASTERLING Since 1976 John Easterling has been an explorer and treasure hunter in the Amazon Rainforest. It was there, after a personal health crisis, he was introduced to the traditional use of medicinal plants by the Indigenous People in Peru.  Since then his passion for plant medicine has only accelerated. Easterling's original degree is in Environmental Studies, he founded the Amazon Herb Company in 1990 and serves on the board of the Amazon Center of Environmental Education and Research.  Amazon John’s 28 years of Plant Medicine experience have been profiled on TV and Radio including "Good Morning America" and "Fox and Friends".  His product formulations have sold over $100 million worldwide. John has been featured in two PBS documentaries, World News Report "Amazon John and Rainforest Medicines" and Jean Michel Cousteau's "Return to the Amazon."  Easterling believes the dramatic growth and interest in plant medicine is still in its early stages and will continue to significantly improve life experiences and healthy outcomes into the future.   Causes of Alzheimer’s and Dementia Beta amyloid plaquing. “So when you get plaquing, your spark plug would foul, and you couldn't start your engine.

Download Key Takeaways Bluebird Botanicals is leading the industry in third-party testing and Lab results, green initiatives and a stand on hemp policy. CBD helps cushion the psychoactive impact of THC on CB1 receptors, making for a less intense ‘high’. Lex has a lot of hope for the 2018 Farm Bill, and believes hemp has widespread uses that will open many market opportunities in the future. Intro Joe interviews Lex Pelger, Science Director of Bluebird Botanicals, a Colorado-based company. They talk about CBD and the issues with the FDA talking about health benefits. The use cases of hemp and drug war are discussed. Who is Lex Pelger? He is a Science Director of Bluebird Botanicals. Lex moves from New York to Colorado. He did a psychedelic storytelling open mic tour (Blue Dot tour) across the USA and it culminated at the MAPS Psychedelic Science Conference. Moved from the hustle of New York to Colorado to have his baby. The Cannabinoid Lex gets excited the more he learns about how intricate the endocannabinoid system is to humans and all mammals Bluebird Botanicals doesn't make any medical claims CDB supports health and homeostasis The cannabinoid system was discovered in the body only 25 years ago Opium and Cannabis were the two oldest plants used in the body There isn't anyone connection for cannabis, because there are so many receptors in the human body There is a ton of research happening on cannabinoids Lex thinks the research ban on phytocannabinoids is unfortunate Cannabis and cannabinoids are the most studied drugs in the US CBD functions as a homeostasis molecule Anandamide was the first endogenous cannabinoid discovered in the human brain in 1991 by a team led by Raphael Mechoulam in Israel Raphael Mechoulam discovered the final structure of THC in 1963 CB1 Receptor in the brain was discovered in 1991 also CB1 Receptor If the CB1 receptors are blocked in a human or animal, they won't get ‘high’ on weed The presence of CBD doesn't allow THC to fully bind to the CB1 receptor, so when CBD is present in THC, you won't get quite as high Lex thinks it's unfortunate that because weed has been in prohibition, it has been bred so hard to only have THC He thinks all weed should have a little bit of CBD to cushion the psychoactive nature of THC The Endocannabinoid System Joe says there is no profile to test the endocannabinoid system to know if a person is deficient or not, that he knows of Lex says if you get your genetic results from a company like 23 and me, it will tell you about your cannabinoid alleles A bad trip to a young brain can damage it forever The activists that annoy Lex are ones that refuse the obvious negatives Weed should not be given to all children The ‘Right to Fly’ Jonathan Thompson - Psychedelic Parenting Blog and Podcast How to create a community on psychedelics Noah Potter - Psychedelic Law Blog An open-source thought experiment in psychedelic law and policy “This plant is tied down by so many regulations” - Lex In the state of Colorado, you can't make new genetics Lousy laws made it hard to diversify the cannabis plant Lex believes Aldous Huxley’s book The Island is the best blueprint for what a sane integration of psychedelics and psychoactive might look like. Lex says people taking mushrooms in the woods together is so special, simply because a group of people is spending 6-8 hours with nature and with each other. Bluebird Botanicals Many different products - isolates, oils, vape juice, and topicals will be back soon Independent Lab Verification Leading the industry with third-party lab results Transparent about ingredients, NO pesticides used! Paired with Eurofins - world’s biggest testing lab Bluebird partners with the farmers, packaging partners, etc to be green and more eco-friendly always CEO Brandon hears about a new point of quality to be added, he goes for it Passed 99% inspection quality, CGMP Lex thinks its so nice to work for a company that focuses on giving back to the customers, focusing on employees, quality, the planet, and just giving back CBD Drug Law Changes in California The regulations restrict being able to add CBD to food, which goes is against the 2014 Federal Farm Bill Bluebird is on the board for the US Hemp Roundtable - Hemp Policy Jonathan Miller - Lawyer of the group and writer to address misinterpretation of the law “It's foolish to have the 1950’s 1960’s mindset of cannabis” - Joe Marijuana vs Hemp Both are cannabis plants Cannabis is the species, THC is more than .3% THC, Hemp is less than .3% THC “If a state inspector comes in and tests 6 samples and the results come up as .4% or .5%, they make you burn it. They don't burn it for you, you have to burn it yourself while you watch.” - Lex Cannabis is tricky to grow for commercial use It takes 3 generations for the plant to get used to the environment “Thank you, farmers, for being farmers” - Joe 2018 Farm Bill Mitch McConnell majority leader of the Senate, is pushing this because he comes from Kentucky, the Hemp state. The Senate version of the Farm Bill is correct, the House version has none of the correct language in it. McConnell and the pro-hemp committee will hash out the differences between the two bills. This Bill expands on all of the rights so it makes it look more enticing and safe for big businesses like Whole Foods and Banks. This bill is going to open up many markets. Hemp as an Industrial Product “What’s really cool about hemp is how widespread the uses are” - Lex The Hemperor, Jack Herer discovered all of the uses for the hemp plant Oil and plastic did win, hemp did not win as a top 10 commodity It’s a hard plant to work within the processing stage Thomas Jefferson stopped growing hemp because the retting stage was too hard on his slaves Hemp is not going to change all the markets it's been said it will transform Lex says hempcrete is fascinating. Using hemp as lubricants, bath bombs, and just the seeds are fascinating uses The Russians and the English fought in a war over access to hemp Hemp is a rope that doesn't get destroyed by saltwater, fueled the world’s Navy Fiber is so important, and hemp as a fiber was widespread Hemp seeds are a perfect mix of essential fatty acids Hemp seed made pigeons breed more Joe says there was a huge tradition of people eating pigeons Agriculture is so bad for topsoil, hemp can help repair our lands for us to keep surviving Hemp is a holy material in Korea Joseph Needham layed out all of China’s inventions and explained that the founders of Daoism had a cannabis-induced ‘dream’ and envisioned the first Daoist school where Yin and Yang came from Lex’s job as a Science Director for Bluebird Lex does a lot of education around CBD, Cannabinoid science conferences His passion for cannabis stems from his grandma’s medical condition He wanted to find a way to describe the cannabinoid system for elders to understand Lex is thankful for groups like Erowid, who sit down and interview our elders Lex tells a story about a man who took LSD in the woods, and fell to the ground and felt one with the trees, felt himself rooting down, and felt complete. He never forgot that feeling Lex thinks that a person should be stable before embarking on a psychedelic journey “Huxley says that therapists are attracted to psychedelics because of their own dark icebergs” - Lex. He thinks that therapists should be A gatekeeper, not THE gatekeeper Joe has been trying to get in touch with Dana Beal who popularized ibogaine “Dana Beal was an old-time, cowboy pot smuggler to fund yippie political activism, outreach, and political activism, so he could make the way that he made money, illegal” - Lex He used the system against itself Cannabis can cause catalepsy in people - which makes one ‘blackout’ 90% of cointel pros were against the Black Panthers Hoover feared them because they were black and he was racist They were extremely effective Lex explains that the war on cannabis has a racist framework, Nixon said “Because black people use cocaine and hippies use cannabis, we can use it against them” Lex goes on to talk about the history of the CIA, which puts its money into drug trade because it's untraceable, they protect the drug lords to use it for their own financial benefit He says the CIA and DEA are inefficient bureaucracies “Our belief at Bluebird, is we have to end the war on drugs. It's not a war on drugs, it's a war on people. The war on drugs is incredibly effective at doing what it was designed to do, and that was to hold, certain people groups down” Joe comments saying that there are babies being born and being brought into this world. He appreciates Bluebird for having proper business practice Final Thoughts Lex finished his Moby Dick Pot books about the endocannabinoid system and the war on drugs He says he based them on Moby Dick because it was the only thing large enough to fit the entire history of cannabis and war on drugs He does the Greener Grass Podcast for Bluebird which includes topics on cannabis and green initiatives.

Close to 60 years ago, in the early 1960s, Marijuana AKA Cannabis wasn't exactly the friendly substance it is today. In pretty much every developed country, recreational use of the drug was totally illegal and medical research was limited. So as a junior faculty member of the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovot, Israel, Dr. Raphael Mechoulam had to jump through a few loops to get his hands on a sample for his research. Luckily for Dr. Mechoulam, the director of the Weizmann institute had an old army buddy in an opportune place - the head of the investigative branch of the national police. Dr. Mechoula, reach out to him and was provided with 5 kilos of seized Lebanese Hasish. This sample allowed Dr. Mechoulam and his research partners to discover cannabidiol in 1963 and THC the following year. In 2001 Prof. Mechoulam was awarded the Israel Prize, the country's most prestigious award for scientific achievement and today he continues his research at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. We are super thrilled to be talking to Prof. Mechoulam today about cannabis, his life and his research.

Der Mensch hat sie häufig für sich entdeckt und baut Erfahrungswerte auf, mit denen er die „richtige Nutzung“ von Generation zu Generation weiter gibt. Es handelt sich um Kultur, Rituale oder das Wissen der Alten. In der heutigen Zeit reicht das nicht mehr, alles soll bis in das letzte Detail erforscht werden. Der Entdecker erster Cannabinoide ist Raphael Mechoulam, der ab 1960 mit der Forschung rund um Cannabis anfing. Yehiel Gaoni unterstützte ihn in dieser frühen Phase.

Medical Marijuana  http://learntruehealth.com/medical-marijuana/ Reaping The Benefits Of Medical Marijuana  We have heard many benefits of medical marijuana. However, there are still some skeptics regarding the effectiveness of this plant, and many others still regard marijuana as an illegal drug. My guest today, Dr. Karen Munkacy, will shed light on why medical marijuana is better than conventional medicine. Breast Cancer Survivor Dr. Karen Munkacy is a breast cancer survivor. Upon being diagnosed at the age of 40, she has undergone 28 radiation sessions and a double mastectomy. During the four months that she was undergoing aggressive chemotherapy treatments, a friend suggested taking medical marijuana. Munkacy also heard about medical marijuana’s benefits. But not wanting to break the law, Munkacy refused the treatment. Although Munkacy is grateful to be in remission, going through a plethora of surgeries, radiation and chemotherapy treatments were not easy. Hence, Munkacy resolved to find ways to help other cancer patients ease their pain and suffering. Medical Marijuana Research Not forgetting her friend’s recommendation to use medical marijuana, Munkacy researched about the medicinal benefits of cannabis supported by scientific evidence and medical support. Her medical background gave her the perspective to assess her findings. Munkacy also began to began to speak publicly about her experience with cancer. This way, it could encourage lawmakers and health care professionals to support legislation, allowing the use of medical marijuana to alleviate patient pain and discomfort. Passing the Bill Eventually, Munkacy was able to get the medical marijuana bill passed in Massachusetts in November 2012. The bill passed with 63% votes. That encouraged Munkacy to lead an organization creating the best medical marijuana medicines. With a pioneer staff of 16 employees, Munkacy’s primary aim was to uphold the highest standards to cultivate medical marijuana and educate patients as well. Investing a lot in lab equipment also assures patients that the extractions and dosings of the medical marijuana are exact. Primary Benefits There are many other benefits of medical marijuana. Aside from the alleviation of pain and discomfort, medical marijuana also works for nausea. “It’s the only anti-nausea medication that also stimulates appetite. It works for anxiety, depression, and inability to sleep,” said Munkacy. “Medical marijuana is very safe with no side effects. Hence, it is the perfect medication for people in hospice care.” Unfortunately, some hospitals remain to be hesitant in the use of medical marijuana. Munkacy recalls a female patient wherein using medical marijuana significantly eased her pain, anxiety, and depression. That patient was able to sleep at night, had an appetite, and her nausea decreased. However, when the hospice found out that she was using medical marijuana, she was forced to leave. Consequently, her family had no choice but to take over and oversee her treatment. Father of Medical Marijuana Dr. Raphael Mechoulam is known as, “The Father of Medical Marijuana.” The title was given to Mechoulam after he discovered the endocannabinoid system. Consequently, studies show that medical marijuana inhibits the vascularization of tumors. It binds to receptors in our digestive tract. Hence, it can help with inflammatory diseases and problems like Chron’s disease. Despite that, Munkacy acknowledges that it is still hard for doctors to write recommendations. Consequently, doctors rely on top medical literature to declare effectivity of a drug or treatment before recommending it to patients. However, Israel has a different take on medical marijuana. Munkacy reveals that the Ministry of Defense in Israel pays for soldiers with PSTD to get medical marijuana. Unfortunately, for those in the United States, medical marijuana is not readily available for American soldiers with PSTD. Indeed a sad plight for people who serve our country. How The Body Processes Marijuana According to Munkacy, if you use medical marijuana everyday, you can have withdrawal symptoms if you just abruptly stop it. So it is best to do it under a doctor’s supervision. “Medical marijuana is processed through the liver. There are different effects when you inhale it vs. when you swallow it,” Munkacy said. Munkacy says that when you inhale medical marijuana, it goes into your lungs and right into your bloodstream. On the other hand, when you swallow it, it gets absorbed in your digestive tract, and the blood flow from your gastrointestinal tract goes right through your liver. “The more educated you are about this medication, the more efficient it’s going to be for you. You’ll be able to harness its effects and use it to the way that works best for you,” said Munkacy. Garden Remedies Products Under Munkacy’s Garden Remedies product line, there are a variety of medical marijuana products that patients can use to treat their various health problems: Flower Strains • Bruce Banner #3 • Chem 4 • Commerce City Kush • Cornbread • Longs Peak Blue • Girl Scout Cookies • Granddaddy Purple • Scott’s OG Premium Rolls • Bruce Banner #3 • Cornbread • Longs Peak Blue • House Blend Vape Pen Selection • Otto#2 • Tangerine Kush Concentrates • Star Killer Rosin • AJ Sour Rosin • RSO • Taffy Distillate • Keif Bar Edibles • Medicated Honey • Fruit Drops • Medicated Sugar • Medicated Finishing Rub • Stone Hard Candy • Dark Chocolate Coins • Caramel Sauce • Caramel Chew Tinctures • THC Tincture • CBD + THC Tincture Capsules • G-Caps Garden Wellness Spa Products • Medicated Relief Lotion • Mediated Lotion bar • Garden Immersion Bath Salts • Lip Balm • Bath Fizz Munkacy’s lab constantly looks for the best ways for patients to ingest medical marijuana. Products that are taken orally do not taste great. But Munkacy assures that every product they have is made from high-quality ingredients. Changing Lives Munkacy shares that people with terrible migraines benefit from their products. Some even commit suicide because of the severity of the pain brought about by migraines. Hence, medical marijuana is a miracle for many because it changes people’s lives. “We teach patients that the joint you’re getting on the black market is probably different from what you’re buying from us,” said Munkacy. “Ours is more powerful and works better.” In addition to that, Munkacy says statistics show that cancer cases did not increase with people who smoke medical marijuana for long periods. However, hobby smokers usually develop chronic bronchitis. But if they stop, lung function goes back to normal within a month. Now, that’s awesome! Facing Challenges There are currently over 40 states in the United States that have legalized marijuana in different forms. However, Munkacy says it is still difficult to get the right type of medical marijuana. Unfortunately, the University of Mississipi is currently the only place where you can get medical marijuana. Hence, researchers have had a hard time getting the types of strains that they want to study despite having several cases of success. “There was a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine. This study documented that CBD, which is one of the compounds in medical marijuana, treats intractable pediatric epilepsy,” shares Munkacy. “This compound doesn’t make you high, but rather it controls seizures.” Looking Ahead Despite the challenges promoting the use of medical marijuana, Munkacy remains unfazed in her mission to have more people use this treatment. Since pharmaceutical drugs have proven to be a failure for a lot of individuals, Munkacy offers her products to anyone who needs it. “Our most common patient problem is a severe chronic pain. You can keep using more of it until your pain is under control,” Munkacy said. “Unlike narcotics, there is no fatal dose in medical marijuana.” Furthermore, Munkacy assures that each patient is given immediate attention as well as ample time for consultation. Rest assured, Munkacy is confident that her life’s mission will eventually be realized one step at a time. Dr. Karen Munkacy’s medical experience is extensive. In addition to her background as a board certified anesthesiologist and pain management specialist, she is a former faculty member at UCLA and USC Medical Centers in Los Angeles and has worked as a researcher and international medical consultant. Munkacy was trained in pain management and received her medical degree from the University of Michigan Medical School. She is also an active proponent in the public arena of the use of medical marijuana. In this role, Munkacy is a member of Americans for Safe Access, the largest organization of patients, medical professionals, scientists and concerned citizens promoting safe and legal access to medical marijuana. She was a leader in the successful ballot campaign for the legalization of medical marijuana in Massachusetts and helped persuade the Massachusetts Medical Society to sponsor a physician education program on the medicine. Munkacy currently brings all her energy and integrity to Garden Remedies as it launches its efforts to deliver to patients the safe, compassionate and proven relief they deserve.

The Copernicus of Cannabis, Dr. Raphael Mechoulam joins us to discuss the advent of cannabis research, it’s history and current landscape. He says it’s very difficult to work on compounds, that are under legal constraints. When he started there was some knowledge around cannabinoids but it was vague and not in modern terms. As a natural products chemist he knew that the first thing that needed to be done was to elucidate the chemistry as you can’t do research with an unknown extract. He read historical information on the plant in many different languages to set his baseline understanding. This eventually set him up to be the custodian of the world’s supply of legal THC in 1963 which at the time was 10 grams and the rest as they say, is history.

Monday, June 13, 2011 – Our incredible special guests tonight are Will Huff from Grass Roots Research & Education in Goleta and Liani Johnson, founder of Cannabee Products Inc. in Palm Springs. Both are California medicinal cannabis specialists. We will be talking about the history of Cannabis and the different cultures that have utilized its medicinal properties. We will learn about the cannabinoid system in neuroprotection and how receptors in the brain are activated to relieve symptoms of pain, anxiety and many other conditions. Only 16 States and DC have enacted laws to legalize medical marijuana and for those who don't, the MMJ activists are busy educating people about the benefits of this amazing plant. Cannabis has been around for thousands of years, used by cultures around the world for healing, religious ceremonies and everything in between. The plant has been used for clothing, paper, building materials and much more. Tune in for a very interesting and educational program. See some interesting links below: DR.
