Cannabis compounds could reverse disease affecting one-third of adults

Compounds found in cannabis could provide a new roadmap for treating the world’s most common chronic liver disorder, according to a study released by the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

The research, published in the British Journal of Pharmacology, found that cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabigerol (CBG) significantly reduced liver fat and improved metabolic health in experimental models.

CBD is the more widely studied non-intoxicating cannabinoid, while CBG is a less common "precursor" cannabinoid from which CBD is formed.

Unlike THC, the primary psychoactive component in cannabis, these compounds do not produce a "high," making them viable candidates for long-term medical treatment, the study suggests.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) currently affects approximately one-third of the global adult population, according to health data.

Ozempic does the same thing. It is now being used to prevent livers from failing, reducing the need for liver transplants.

My wife had suffered with neuropathy for years and tried every recommended treatment including a set of laser lights to wear on her feet a couple hours a day that she paid over 2K for. I let her sample cannabis from a vape and that put an end to the worthless medication and the laser lights. She`s able to forget about the pain when she`s at home which is most of the time.

Damn, I had some issues with numbness along one side including my face and I really wanted to try it but the stigma remains strong with me so I have not even though it is legal here and could help. Prescribed some medications by neurologists which I normally never take, resistant to the point that if I have a migraine I refuse aspirin but this time I was desperate. I lost total control over one side of my body multiple times over a period of months, might be related to my spine or nerve system but it decimated my disposition. Stopped taking the meds and I have not lost the control since. I always wondered if it would help cure me of this random numbness. A change in my diet to low carb has probably helped.

I don't trust any of that government weed. Nope.
Know of 2 dudes that grow it. It's all good up until it's almost harvest time and the government comes in there and sprays who-knows-what on it
while wearing hazmat suits.
I don't want any of that.

It's government regulated, though, and in order to comply with regulations, they have to let the government do that. In order to sell their product.

Helps Your Heart​

If you're in good shape, moderate drinking makes you 25% to 40% less likely to have a heart attack, stroke, or hardened arteries. This may be in part because small amounts of alcohol can raise your HDL ("good" cholesterol) levels.

Unfortunately. a large number of people conveniently think this means it's great to have a few drinks, or some pot, and drive. People in general are not smart enough to moderate and be responsible. Look around. More and more I'm seeing people weaving all over the road and into oncoming traffic.
If only people were generally responsible.

All for anyone who wants/needs it having it, but not with funky chemicals sprayed on it.

When my hubby was using cannabis, prescribed by a doctor, I had some good conversations with the manager of the dispensary about the quality of the product, and he told me that the plants that were grown in Washington for medical use were kept pretty clean.

But otherwise, yeah, I'd insist on knowing the person growing the product. Not interested in growing in my own home because I hate the smell of the stuff.

The state I now live in has medical, and since I don't use, I've never bothered looking up medical regs for growing your own.

what chance?...Nevada has a pretty strict regulations on what they can and cant use.....they can use these and nothing else...this is from the states handbook...

• Approved Products: Legal growers generally use "minimum risk" pesticides (FIFRA 25b products), such as neem oil, insecticidal soaps, and Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt).

Yeah, that's good, what about the Feds, though?
One of the dudes I know is in Canada.

I restarted cannabis over a decade ago.

One of my relatives was a top exec at a Canadian cannabis company. He recommended the book "Brave New Weed". I was just gobstopped. From my era of nickel bags with seeds and stems, Cannabis has Walter Whited the product so a single seed that costs $10 can develop into a plant with 28% THC content!!

The human body has a endocannibal system, a part of the nervous system dedicated to interacting with THC.

I've been enjoying it a lot lately.

I'd advice newcomers to take careful notes on the effects of the various strains you might try. There's a vast ocean of feeling and experiences, some just heavenly, others not as good

Those vapes are worse than smoking. Switch to gummy or trap vape in balloon to cool down before inhaling

My poor hubby -- a teetotalling schoolteacher -- had such a hard time learning to smoke or even to vape, so we eventually just got him on edibles and it was great for him.

Combustion is better than vaping? That`s ridiculous. What I don`t like about the gummies is a lack of portion control. I can remember my early days with brownies when I would eat one and lose patience waiting for the kick and eat a second one and be disabled for the afternoon.

I made some really yummy "cheddar pennies" -- cheese crackers -- and did the same thing. They were too good!

No vapes! Just no!!
