THROWBACK RESEARCH: Marijuana Used To Treat Asthma?


Some years back, Medical Researchers claimed that Marijuana may have therapeutic value in treating Glaucoma (an eye defect) and Asthma (a lung defect) and in easing the nausea that cancer patients experience during chemotheraphy. Well, here we are now after two decades and nine years, we are still waiting. Or we aren't?



Marijuana has over 400 chemical compounds and any of these compounds could prove useful. They said that if any of these compounds ever become medicines, it will be its "derivatives or analogues" (chemical compounds similar to them) that doctors will prescribe. In as much as Marijuana affects the lungs, can it still be used to treat another disease of the lung?


Too many questions to be asked...
