The government makes it so difficult for researchers to conduct the studies they claim they need that the researchers don't want to deal with the bureaucracy. I think the majority of doctors believe marijuana has some medical benefits just like any other controlled substance when used in a therapeutic manner. But, I can't think of a single doctor who would say the same about tobacco or alcohol. Whoever is making these decisions is completely ignoring the science that is available.
Additionally, the government sells the marijuana grown at the University of Mississippi to researchers overseas. Then they only report the findings which confirm their conformational bias.
Actually a study just came out from DEA
It found: 1. No evidence it does help medically 2. Found the secondary smoke is worse than tobacco 3. Found it is an addictive drug
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
