    Cannabis is the oldest and most versatile medicine known to man.

    Rare 11-leafer Cannabis sativa

    Endocannabinoid receptors and endocannabinoids

    Main article in wikipedia Endocannabinoid system

    Human cells may have either of 2 types of endocannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2. These receptors are present also in cells far away from the brain.

    Anandamide, an endogenous ligand of CB1 and CB2

    Endocannabinoids are produced by our own bodies the main ones being Anandamide and 2-AG.

    Anandamide

    • Anandamide was discovered in 1992. The name comes from the Sanskrit word 'Ananda' meaning 'bliss' and amide from its chemistry.

    2-AG

    • 2-AG was discovered in 1994-1995.

    2-Arachidonyl glyceryl ether

    Virodhamine

    Lysophosphatidylinositol

    A lovely female Cannabis indica. These are often good for pain relief producing a nice body stone.
    Male Cannabis sativa plants in late blooming stage.

    Cannabis sativa and Cannabis indica are the main cannabis variants though most strains are mixes of these. A third cannabis line is the Cannabis ruderalis, a rugged nothern cannabis that has adapted to flower even under northern long summer days.

    Phytocannabinoids

    Many people may know the 2 most prevalent phytocannabinoids, THC and CBD.

    Full list of known phytocannabinoids from Wikipedia:

    THC

    Tetrahydrocannabinol is the psychoactive compound that brings the 'high' most recreational users are chasing.

    THCA

    THC is produced from the raw THCA by a process called de-carboxylation. Basically means to heat the stuff over certain temperature.

    CBD

    Cannabidiol has the most medical applications of all phytocannabinoids.

    CBDA

    Cannabidiolic Acid is the raw form. Decarboxylating CBDA yields CBD.

    CBN

    Cannabinol

    CBG

    Cannabigerol

    CBC

    Cannabichromene

    CBL

    Cannabicyclol

    CBV

    Cannabivarin

    THCV

    Tetrahydrocannabivarin

    CBDV

    Cannabidivarin

    CBCV

    Cannabichromevarin

    CBGV

    Cannabigerovarin

    CBGM

    Cannabigerol Monomethyl Ether

    Cannabicitran


    Treating somatic issues

    Cannabis can be applied to treat a wide assortment of illnesses. In this case it is called medical cannabis.

    Due to the inbuilt default to always take the safe route and also to backup the back of your fellow MD colleague the Wikipedia does not yield the right infos on how useful and versatile a medication cannabis is.

    Research has been held back by arcane laws even as cannabis is the oldest medicine known to man and it should be gladly appreciated and not outlawed because of big pharma interests.

    Phytocannabinoid treatment of cancers

    Full extract cannabis oil in a syringe for easy dosing and travel is usually administered in drops to the gums or under the tongue.

    Internet is rife with stories about winning the battle against cancer with the help of phytocannabinoids. What does the science say?

    4 points how cannabis works against cancer compiled by herb.co

    1. Anti-proliferative - cannabis is against tumor growth
    2. Anti-metastatic - cannabis is against cancer spreading to other parts in the body because of metastatic activity
    3. Anti-angiogenetic - cannabis is against new blood vein growth to tumor
    4. Apoptotic - cannabis causes cancer cells to programmedly kill themselves via Apoptosis.

    Phytocannabinoids are harmless to healthy cannabinoid receptor containing cells.

    Additionally anecdotally true are

    1. Cannabis works very well against the somatic and nonsomatic pains brought on by cancer
    2. Cannabis can help maintain a good appetite, chemo or no chemo.

    Pain treatment

    “You just don't feel like thinking about the pain.”

    ~ Apotheker Jukeboksi on somatic pain relief with cannabis

    “There is more to it than that.”

    ~ Science on above quote
