THROWBACK RESEARCH: Marijuana Used To Treat Asthma?

By

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...

Photo: Nigerian Traffic Warden In An Uncommon And 'Patriotic' Display Of 'Solidarity' With A Bus Driver

By
Welcome to Nigeria. A country where everything is possible. The picture above might not mean much to readers overseas, but it tells a lot to the 'country men'. I love my country because of the indispensable, unequivocal and meticulous way that things are been done without another naked eye, seeing. That picture above na solidarity be that oh. Cheerful giving or showing love to a fellow hustler. The picture below would explain what i mean. Exchanging hard currency as bribe through the palm. Exquisite, isn't it? Corruption on a low-key level. I wonder why i even added Patroitism. Well, let it remain there. Written by John Akweh.
