Well Im out on a bond right now and Im doing na/aa and outpatient to look for my case. So heres a story, when i was in jail i was on lockdown for 7 days,i couldnt access caffeine. My digestion,anxiety and chest pains were almost gone. I didnt drink coffee until I got into general population on the day I was getting out on bond...and guess what problems came back soon as I started drinking coffee on a regular basis..Bloat/chest pain/anxiety/shortness of breath..Of course this doesnt apply to a healthy person with no digestive issues.

Healthwise why not cut out coffee and keep smoking the herb? Where is the confusion?

Not unless you get spider mites which don't need to show up if you take care and concern. With the legalization of hemp (still cannabis duh, TRump legalized weed but no one but botanists noted the fact). The general concerns of the true medgrowers will be having decent enough air filtration as the industrial cannabis males go to pollen.

Re: Convince me that weed is good for you.
Probably not good for everyone and I definitely don’t advocate it for younger people in their teens or early 20’s, not while your Brain & emotional development is still taking place.

For me personally, I have what I think is likely hereditary major depressive disorder as well as PTSD. I have trouble connecting and bonding with loved ones on an emotional, heart-centered, deeper level. I used to be chronically withdrawn in general, from a very early age. I thought it was normal because my whole entire family was that way..I was so lost inside myself for so long that I had no concept at all of how the outside world actually perceived me. Part of knowing who you are, who you really are, is based on the awareness and perceptions of others.

Nowadays, people describe me as “enlightened and transcendental” when they meet me. Loving, calming, easygoing. Almost like I’m “high” all of the time. I think that’s really funny, because I never had that concept of myself.

I only use marijuana once a week or so. It was and is an important key or tool to unlock something. Once I leaned how to unlock it myself, on my own, marijuana no longer became necessary. I can feel “high” without it. Strange..
Marijuana saved my life and allowed me to access my heart center and relate/connect to friends and family on an empathic, open-hearted level. Without this “tool,” I’d be a basket case. It is not to be used as a crutch, however. Carlos Castenada wrote a lot about “tools.”

Re: Convince me that weed is good for you.
Not trying to show off or anything but heres my physique after 2 years of being sober,working out like crazy and trying so hard to build a better physique. I weighed 195,at some point i was over 200 for the 1st time in my life.

[link to imgur.com (secure)]

Then heres my physique after 6 months of smoking weed everyday and working out less and trying less hard in the gym . Weighing 182.

[link to imgur.com (secure)]


Now that i quit again within 6 weeks I gained 10 pounds and added fat again. Fuck what mainstream says, that its bad for your metabolism and that it lowers your "testosterone" What a fuckin crock of shit. If anything it makes your testosterone higher, I become a nympho when I use cannabis regularly.

I'll pine it post TRump rally...running a rally drinking thread. But there is a very good reason why digestion gets screwy. Cannabis is a 'general tonic'. If you are prone to stomach issues you will get those back until they heal themselves which will happen. Look at the foodie thread and Louis from Richmond and his reliance on insulin. Dropped massively after a year of RSO. It takes time to get ill, it takes time to heal.

 Quoting: Thracian


That's because coffee is super acidic like 3 pH and consuming acids causes digestive issues.

Caffiene is a stimulant and stimulant drugs cause anxiety and stress in the body raising cortisol production.

If you require caffiene i suggest instead of coffee you switch to a healthier alternative like organic Japanese Ceremonial Matcha Tea. Matcha tea has l-theanine in it which negates the anxiety and jittery feeling from the caffiene. Plus it's chock full of antioxidants.

Weed has some theraputic uses for people with Parkinsons Disease for example or other neurological issues, etc but beyond that I don't think it has any health benefits.

For males, there are two definite ways it's bad for your health. It elevates your estrogen levels while inhibiting testosterone and most weed is chemmed out to increase the yield. Every stoner in the world wants desperately to believe their supplier grows organically but unless you know him/her and personally visit the grow operation, I HIGHLY doubt it is. So you're smoking super heated fertilizers & pesticides along with your precious weed. That cannot be good for you.

Wrong, see my post above. If weed increased your estrogen my body wouldn't have gotten leaner and I would have gained more fat. The opposite happened ,my body composition improved-so did my sex drive. The whole increase estrogen thing is nothing but propaganda ,the only downside would be smoking it.

Re: Convince me that weed is good for you.
I smoked weed every day all day for almost 7 years straight.
First them I would do in the morning before going to work was smoke weed.
Last thing I did before going to bed was smoke weed.
I have gone through several devices for smoking:

2 high quality glass bongs ($300)
Storz & Bickel Mighty Might Vaporizer ($500)
Volcano Storz & Bickel Vaporizer (approx. $700)

I have spend over $40,000 on weed in those years.

In that whole time I did have a small few positive spiritual moments

(1) I discovered that death is not the end
(2) I realized that TIME does not exist. It is an illusion.

However, overall weed was a very negative influence on my life. I will say no more than that.

In conclusion, DON"T SMOKE WEED LIKE I USED TO.

P.S.

I have given up weed and all alcohol and have not touched either in 3 years. I will never drink alcohol nor smoke weed again.

Do you think when you grow it yourself its better than the "medical" weed? Weed today is just not like how it used to be,ever since the government got their hands on it changed IMO.
 Quoting: Thracian


When you grow it yourself, you put your own energy, love, and attention into the plants plus you see what goes into growing the plants.

I grew for years all organic with no nasty pesticides, just natural organic pesticides. The human body is organic and nothing man-made or synthetic belongs in it.

"Weed today is just not like how it used to be,ever since the government got their hands on it changed IMO." The government didn't do jack shit except create a couple of their own strains like G-13 which has been made into some hybrids today like MK-Ultra which is G-13 x Og Kush.

The only thing that has changed today since the 70s or 80s is instead of USA being flooded with cheap shitty mexican weed that is covered in pesticides we have people who have done extensive work on crossing genetics and producing stronger better tasting cannabis strains that are unique and thus having different medicinal benefits. So instead of having to smoke a whole joint or 2 to get high off the shitty mexican weed you only need a hit or 2 off the stronger newer weed to get the same if not better effects.
 Quoting: chranotik


So can you tell a differece when you smoke your homegrown vs other street bud/medical?
 Quoting: Thracian


I don't smoke anymore but when I do I actually don't inhale and go for flavour and yep...the flavour complexity in love grow weed, is the difference between a Coors Light and a Guinness.
 Quoting: William Poole


Why wouldn't you inhale? Missing out on all the health benefits.

Also the difference between Coors Light and a Guinness isn't that much. However the difference between a Coors Light and like a fancy craft beer is huge.

 Quoting: Thracian


Hell no, if they allowed synthetic pesticides in the medicine it wouldn't be helping people or curing their cancers. It's why most dispensaries lab test the weed.

Besides there are natural organic pesticides like spinosad that i've used before to kill white flies. It's made from some kind of fermented bacteria and isn't harmful to humans.

There are ways of killing pests without using any kind of chemicals nowadays such as filling up a room to 10,000 ppm with co2. That will kill everything in the room but not harm the plants.

Marijuana saved my life and allowed me to access my heart center and relate/connect to friends and family on an empathic, open-hearted level. Without this “tool,” I’d be a basket case. It is not to be used as a crutch, however. Carlos Castenada wrote a lot about “tools.”

"Probably not good for everyone and I definitely don’t advocate it for younger people in their teens or early 20’s, not while your Brain & emotional development is still taking place. " Nah, marijuana won't harm the development of the brain. Alcohol, cocaine, meth and etc however definitely will.

When you ingest marijuana it's called being "high" for a reason, you take in the plant's consciousness and it raises your vibration and consciousness.

However yes the spiritual path is often the lonely isolated path.

Re: Convince me that weed is good for you.
For males, there are two definite ways it's bad for your health. It elevates your estrogen levels while inhibiting testosterone and most weed is chemmed out to increase the yield.
 Quoting: Clarence Worley


If you were talking about alcohol, I'd agree with you. When I was drinking daily (like a fish), my T-levels were very low according to the tests. Eventually, I replaced alcohol with weed and T-levels went slightly above normal for my age. Not to mention, drinking caused me to be overly emotional, prone to sadness, and a pussy... with occasional bouts of violent, drama queen rage. Switched to cannabis and I felt normal, confident, less depressed and levelheaded. Not to mention, more energy (probably from increased T-level) and motivation to get shit done.

Anyone who drinks alcohol and shits on weed is just plain ignorant of the positive effects of the plant. I used to be that ignorant fool.

Re: Convince me that weed is good for you.

For me personally, I have what I think is likely hereditary major depressive disorder as well as PTSD. I have trouble connecting and bonding with loved ones on an emotional, heart-centered, deeper level. I used to be chronically withdrawn in general, from a very early age. I thought it was normal because my whole entire family was that way..I was so lost inside myself for so long that I had no concept at all of how the outside world actually perceived me. Part of knowing who you are, who you really are, is based on the awareness and perceptions of others.

Thanks for sharing. When I go back to it i dont want to use it daily but i have to use the oil daily to help heal my gut and digestive issues. A little bit of thc is that key in your brain to help,cope and understand stress.
 Quoting: Thracian


You should also look into taking probiotics to help heal your gut and digestive issues. So many people in this world right now have their gut flora and fauna bacteria levels off or dead. Especially if you consume anything made from non-organic wheat in USA because they started using glysophate (monsanto roundup) to spray on wheat plants to supposedly dry and harvest them faster. We all know that's complete bullshit and part of the elaborate depopulation agenda as consuming glysophate kills off your good gut bacteria and causes cancers.

There's also another way to take RSO (Rick Simpson Oil) and getting way more of the medical benefits without getting high from it. I was using this way to give it to my relative who was dying from throat cancer and that person couldn't handle the highs from consuming it other ways.

The way you do it is get an oral syringe (the plastic kind, not a sharp needle) and fill it 1/3rd with coconut oil and 2/3rd the RSO (Cannabis Hash Oil). Then you insert the oral syringe about an inch or so into the person's anus and slowly release the mixture inside. This route is way more bioavailable than taking it orally and the person doesn't get high off it.

Cannabis, From the Rear Entrance: A Guide to Rectal Marijuana

All jokes aside, rectal cannabis really is a revolution in the way that we have come to use weed. It offers amazing health benefits that smoking simply can’t match up to. The body absorbs much more of the potent medicinal material while bypassing (at least according to science) the high associated with THC. For many people, this sounds like a dream.
