Marijuana Gateway to Health: How Cannabis Protects Us from Cancer and Alzheimer's Disease

Marijuana Gateway to Health: How Cannabis Protects Us from Cancer and Alzheimer's Disease buries reefer madness myths with an easy-to-understand explanation of how marijuana helps to improve health. In the last ten years, scientific discoveries have revealed that our bodies produce chemicals similar to those found in marijuana and that these endocannabinoids work to prevent illnesses ranging from cancer to Alzheimer's disease to diabetes. When we use marijuana, we are ingesting compounds--plant cannabinoids--that supplement the protective activities of our bodies' cannabinoids. The compounds THC and CBD, found only in the cannabis plant, have remarkable anti-tumor and neuroprotective activities that actually improve our health.
Marijuana Gateway to Health presents well-documented, peer-reviewed studies from around the world that indicate that using marijuana is health-positive behavior and suggests that a lack of natural cannabinoids might be the cause of numerous illnesses ranging from migraines to diabetes.
The book also includes a fascinating narrative history of the politics and science of the medical marijuana movement.
