Marijuana. It's been called a gateway drug, an introduction to the world of harder illegal drugs. Yet many people consider it to be a safe drug—at least safer than heroin, LSD, or cocaine. However, while marijuana might not be directly responsible for causing any deaths, the consequences of its use can be detrimental to the lives of its users. This book describes the history of marijuana use, the dangers of its use, and the legal consequences. You'll also learn about the controversies surrounding the drug—including the issues of decriminalization and the use of medical marijuana. Treatment options for marijuana dependency are also discussed

Some people suffer from chronic, debilitating disorders for which no conventional treatment brings relief. Can marijuana ease their symptoms? Would it be breaking the law to turn to marijuana as a medication? There are few sources of objective, scientifically sound advice for people in this situation. Most books about marijuana and medicine attempt to promote the views of advocates or opponents. To fill the gap between these extremes, authors Alison Mack and Janet Joy have extracted critical findings from a recent Institute of Medicine study on this important issue, interpreting them for a general audience. Marijuana As Medicine? provides patientsâ€"as well as the people who care for themâ€"with a foundation for making decisions about their own health care. This empowering volume examines several key points, including: Whether marijuana can relieve a variety of symptoms, including pain, muscle spasticity, nausea, and appetite loss. The dangers of smoking marijuana, as well as the effects of its active chemical components on the immune system and on psychological health. The potential use of marijuana-based medications on symptoms of AIDS, cancer, multiple sclerosis, and several other specific disorders, in comparison with existing treatments. Marijuana As Medicine? introduces readers to the active compounds in marijuana. These include the principal ingredient in Marinol, a legal medication. The authors also discuss the prospects for developing other drugs derived from marijuana's active ingredients. In addition to providing an up-to-date review of the science behind the medical marijuana debate, Mack and Joy also answer common questions about the legal status of marijuana, explaining the conflict between state and federal law regarding its medical use. Intended primarily as an aid to patients and caregivers, this book objectively presents critical information so that it can be used to make responsible health care decisions. Marijuana As Medicine? will also be a valuable resource for policymakers, health care providers, patient counselors, medical faculty and studentsâ€"in short, anyone who wants to learn more about this important issue.

If you ask a young person today about weed, what comes to mind isn't rolling a joint or taking a bong hit, getting the munchies and chilling out. In fact, cannabis today is practically an entirely different product than what most people think it is, so before you start saying, 'What's the big deal about legalizing weed?' there's a lot you should know. The chill is gone and the heat is on. In the 1970s, mellowing out with a joint and a slice of pizza was a whole different experience—you'd have to smoke about 15 joints in 1970 to get the same high as just one joint in 2017. Yet today, if you talk to people who use recreational weed, more than likely they aren't even thinking about rolling one up—they're thinking 'concentrates.' Check this out: in the 1970s THC levels in cannabis were less than 4%, today it averages 25%, but in concentrates, THC levels can be as high as 80%, and that's where the train jumps the tracks. Concentrates contain the highest levels of THC available, and they come in a whole new form: thick oils, smooth buttery substances (wax), or rock-hard like a Jolly Rancher. You don't roll this stuff up and smoke it. In order to combust, these new forms require about 700 degrees of heat—you'd need a red-hot needle, super-heated knife, or a vaporizer made to handle that kind of heat (Did images of people smoking crack or meth come to mind? They should). There's always room for dessert! Ah yes – the booming appetite for edibles. Super-potent. You'd have to eat a whole pan of 'herb brownies' to get the concentration of THC that's in today's lollipops or gummies. How cool is that? Just ask kids—after all, they're the target market for weed and concentrates today. Since most older consumers have been using weed for decades, they're already on board. In Colorado, advertisements flood newspapers and billboards with two-for-ones, free samples, guest appearances by superheroes and adorable Koala spokes-bears on special days like, 'Waxy Wednesdays' and 'Shatterdays.' This young and growing market of kids are easily swayed by cool packaging and images like the one of Cookie Monster sharing a plate of 'special cookies,' which is painted on the outside of a Colorado dispensary located right beside a kindergarten. Industrialization—the key to safe, regulated products. Okay, now it really is time to wake up and smell the coffee. With industrialization comes political agendas, overpaid lobbyists, big marketing budgets, and not far behind, monopolies on manufacturing and distribution. Small farmers will feel the pinch as prices soar with the domination of corporate America under the guise of good old capitalism. There goes the neighborhood. In Weed, Inc. Cort responds to statements like: It's not addictive It's organic It's safer than alcohol Nobody has ever died from weed Crime will come down and the cartels will suffer Plus, he includes definitions of pertinent terms, such as: 710, 420 and 3750, dabbing, waxing, vaping, A-bomb, shatter, Budtender, ditch weed and more. We each have our own ideas of what the world of legal, recreational cannabis looks like, but more than likely, we know far less than we think we know. This seminal book will take you into the real world of legalized weed and open your eyes to topics such as: Environmental concerns (water, fertilizers, power, etc.) Medical concerns Social justice The lobby (what businesses stand to gain by this new industry) Law enforcement Organized crime FDA involvement And much more For every individual, every school and public library, and every bookstore committed to carrying the most up-to-date information on topics that affect families, government policy, industry, and social systems, this book is indispensable.

Getting high with pot is enjoyable, mostly safe and perfectly okay, as millions of us know. However, the problem is, (other than being illegal in most states): we keep coming down! So what can we do about that? Read, "The Potless Pot High!" This book will help anyone (pot user or not) to get high, clear and spunky without weed, without the hassle of marijuana or other "get high" drugs. This book offers five different games to play to catch an easy, natural, grinning "Daily Buzz." This book offers a progressive series of mental, emotional and physical techniques that spontaneously bring about a natural, easy and effortless "potless pot high," or "higher consciousness" very similar to that attained through marijuana. These simple techniques have been proven to take the user to higher, steadier, clearer, more enjoyable states than those experienced with marijuana. What makes this book unique is the recognition that the use of marijuana--- and other mind-altering substances and mind altering activities--- even for long periods of time, are engaged first of all because they are mostly enjoyable (that's why so many do it!) but also because such changes in consciousness may be psychologically necessary, perhaps even biologically programmed. (As Wavy Gravy put it, "Only the jailers are against escape." ) Yes, changing states of mind is basically healthy and evolutionarily imperative. Thus, the Potless Pot High contains no condemnation for pot smoking, only an honest and thorough appraisal of its short and long term effects, both pro and con, on mind, body and social relationships. Chapter titles include, "The First Head Rush," "Rest in Peace, Timothy Leary," "All You Need Is Love (and a Little Toke, )" "Your Brain on Drugs: Enjoying Alpha, Beta, Theta, and Those Sweet, Sweet Gamma Waves," "Opening Our Brain Gates: How Pot-and the Potless Games-Dissolve Cultural Addiction," and "Is All Marijuana Use Medicinal?" The white-haired author first smoked pot before he was able to vote. He was a long-term addictions counselor and is now a deeply experienced marijuana researcher and non-duality teacher and practitioner. "I got a buzz just reading this book," one early reviewer commented.
