Steemians - Cannabis sativa syn or more popularly known as Cannabis is one of the plants that fall into the category of psychotropic because of the content of the substance "tetrahydrokanabinol" in his leaf. This substance if to enter the body will be able to make people experience euphoria or pleasure without any apparent cause.
Because of this substance marijuana becomes a forbidden item (narcotics) in various countries of the world. But even though it is legally prohibited, Cannabis often appears in the culture of 'pop culture' as a symbol of resistance to capitalism.
This can be seen in 1950-1970 where marijuana was used as a symbol of Hippies culture in America until the early decades of the 90s when the famous Reage musician Bob Marley was so synonymous with this unique leafy plant.
It's been long enough for marijuana to blend in human life, and therefore a lot of slanted news we hear about marijuana circulating in the community. But the fact is, marijuana is not as bad as what campaigned by the government. Even cannabis can be very useful for human life one of them useful in the medical field. The following are some of the unique facts of marijuana that are rarely heard by the general public. Here is the review:
1. Cannabis Can Relieve Many Illnesses.
According to a medical note released by Discovery Health, marijuana is great for reducing post-chemotherapy sickness. The same is true for people with HIV and AIDS because cannabis can also increase appetite, by reducing the usual nausea that occurs in people living with HIV. In addition, marijuana is also good for relaxing muscle tension, spasms and chronic pain.
2. Cannabis is a Powerful Sleep Drug.
In this fast-paced era, sleep is one of the main issues. The amount of workload and lifestyle that has changed makes it difficult for people to close their eyes at night. Therefore many people often choose sleeping pills as a solution to this problem.
But unfortunately the existing sleeping pills on the market today, is actually like an anesthetic that only makes our bodies sleep but not rest in full. In addition, sleeping pills also often give bad side effects for the body if consumed continuously.
Actually, if people need effective sleeping pills, since nature has been providing it in the form of marijuana. besides being able to give the effect of marijuana euphoria is also a powerful sleeping pills.
As revealed by a writer named David Downs who has been researching about sleep disorders, finding the best type of marijuana to help alleviate the disorder. Cannabis is consumed by chewing, not inhaled. And people who have consumed it, can get better sleep.
3. Cannabis is Safer Than Cigarettes and Alcohol.
With its status as one of the narcotics, marijuana often gets negative stigma as a dangerous item. This is not entirely wrong, because winning marijuana will be a dangerous substance if consumed in excess. But what about cigarettes and alcohol, it seems everyone would agree if the two things are also not a good thing for the body. But why cigarettes and alcohol can be legal while marijuana is not?
Compared to cigarettes and alcohol marijuana is actually relatively safer, because it only menimbukan effect on the user's hysteria.
According to data released by WHO in 2012 it was noted that alcohol causes one person to die every 10 minutes. This does not include the risk of developing chronic diseases such as cirrhosis of the liver, tuberculosis and cancer loyal to alcoholics. And cigarettes have a worse reputation than alcohol.
To this day no one has died from consuming marijuana, the worst thing that will happen to excessive use of marijuana is crazy.
4. Never before is a person dying of overdose of cannabis.
Psychotropic substances are always synonymous with harmful substances that can make people addicted and even deadly if used in excess, or known as overdose.
Every year millions of people die from overdoses of psychotropic substances around the world. But this turned out not to apply to Ganja, because since the first time the cannabis tree was found and started human consumption, not a single person was recorded dead because of overdose marijuana.
According to a survey conducted in 2010 about 38,329 people died from drug overdose. Where 60 percent it comes from prescription drugs. In the same year, 25,692 people died from anything related to alcohol. Marijuana is even safer than the peanuts that are recorded every year to kill about 100 people due to allergic reactions.
As I said before that the worst thing that happens when excessive use of marijuana is going crazy!
5. Very Low Drug Dependency Level.
We must have often heard complaints of cigarette addicts, alcohol and even drugs about how difficult they are to escape from dependence on these addictive substances.
we certainly know how many people are so difficult to escape from dependence on cigarettes. And cigarettes do not give the effect of addiction as good as alcohol, drugs or even euphoria effects like marijuana. Similar stigma also applies to marijuana which is often considered to make people become addicted to weight. But in fact the marijuana actually does not really make users addicted and continue to want to suck it.
Dr Sanjay Gupta told CNN Medical Correspondent's head that, marijuana is not as effective as thought. In his report mentioned that, marijuana only causes dependence of about 9-10% in adults, cocaine about 20%, heroin about 25%, and tobacco dependence reaches 30%.
In fact marijuana actually does not really make users addicted and continue to want to suck it. A person who has experienced marijuana usually does tend to want to repeat the sensation of happiness when smoking cannabis. But it does not make them continue to want to marijuana every day. And this is based on personal experience because I am also a consuming marijuana.
6. Many Successful People Who Consume Marijuana.
Perhaps this is not an important fact, but it is still interesting to discuss. Names like Maya Angelou, Martha Stewart, Morgan Freeman, Ted Turner, Michael Bloomberg, Rush Limbaugh and Bob Marley are the names of successful people from various fields. They are all loyal users of marijuana. But of course they do not consume marijuana every day and in excessive amounts.
They use marijuana only as a remedy to ease their minds and stress reliever as they get bored with their daily activities.
Those are some of the unique facts of marijuana that people rarely know. If we see, actually marijuana is not as bad as we know so far. It's just that the record is used in a correct and measurable way.
But even that does not mean we can consume marijuana, because let how ganaja is an illegal item in the eyes of the country, so if we consume it then we will be wrong in the eyes of the law and can end in iron bars.
And for those who already use marijuana should use sufficiently not excessive because something that is excessive will be bad for your body health.
