For decades, marijuana, aka weed, has been seen as a gateway drug. Through years of negative propaganda and the governments 'war on drugs', pot has been villainized.
But the truth is, weed has much more to offer than just a thc induced high. Theres other chemicals in the plant that are beneficial. Its been used to treat minor aches and pains, insomnia, seizures, cancer, and much more.
Theres plenty of modern science that now supports the use of medical marijuana. Even though the U.S. Federal government still hasnt, states all over the U.S. are decriminalizing the plant, and people are now legally growing their own.
