SBS tonight 8.30pm .. Cannabis - miracle medicine or drug? Knowledge is power
I do not know how objective this documentary will be tonight - but if they have a balanced view on the use of Cannabis Oil as an effective treatment for MANY illnesses - it will be worth while watchin...
Many drugs are miracle medicines - at least in some applications. And many medicines can become destructive if mis- or over-used. Medicinal cannabis oil is obviously useful and beneficial for some conditions, particularly where other medications have not worked. A drug is simply a medicine or other substance which has a physiological effect when ingested or otherwise introduced into the body. ‘Drug’ now has harmful or illegal connotations. Alcohol is possibly the best example of a drug we cheerfully tolerate, solely because of the physiological effect!! Hard to see how it’s OK (it’s pleasant for some, immensely harmful to others) while cannabis oil is not (for the same reasons).
