This book summarizes the current facts and figures on cannabis and cannabinoids as a healing agent, highlights the scientific status quo, and provides information on the various forms of preparation and ingestion. Medicinally used cannabis is an effective remedy that has been used in folk medicine systems around the world since time immemorial. The range of diseases, symptoms, and conditions that can be treated with hemp is particularly extensive. No other plant known to man has such a multi-faceted spectrum of effects as cannabis - and that without inducing significant side effects. Not least for this reason, more and more patients, doctors, therapists, pharmacists and pharmacologists prefer medicines based on cannabis and cannabinoids. After decades of repression and the war on drugs, hemp is now gradually re-establishing itself as a beneficial medicine, and in many countries it has already been legalized again. The book summarizes the current data and facts on cannabis and cannabinoids as a remedy, highlights the scientific status quo, provides information on the various forms of preparation and intake, and thus offers an easy-to-understand overview that can also provide helpful services to physicians. With numerous contributions from contributing authors, e.g. Franjo Grotenhermen, Robert C. Clarke and Jorge Cervantes.
