It would be great to see it’s potential be realized. Yes I have heard some claim that it can cure cancer when ingested. When my niece was younger she used to smoke it and parroted the line “If God hadn’t meant us to smoke it then why did he put it here?”. I always responded that smoking it may be a misuse and we may find with it’s properties it is useful for many things in the future - besides rope and clothing which it was used for before being banned. I would like to be proven right in my lifetime! :)

Thanks for the info!

Please be very careful with “edible” marijuana products.

There are really no enforced safety codes at the moment.

A recent survey of edible marijuana in Colorado found E. Coli, pesticides, herbicides, fertilizer, and high levels of certain metals.

I think there is a lot of positive things to come in the future with legalization, especially in MS and Cancer Research! Check out this site http://phoenixtears.ca/
I find it very typical of our government to tell us that there is no medicinal value to marijuana, yet our government holds the medical patent for it, they are once again, taking both sides of the argument. It’s a plant that like all the other life on this planet, was put on this earth by our creator (Seems like I read somewhere in The bible where it says all plants are good) It was used in hundreds of ways including medicine for thousands of years and It has been illegal for the last 70 or so years. I think the old adage follow the money might fit here.
