If marijuana has therapeutic potential, it should be required to pass muster with the FDA like any other medicine (leaving aside how well FDA regulation works overall). We have considerable experience with making drugs from plant material, including the opium poppy. Neither the medical community nor government regulators sanction patients’ smoking (or vaporizing) opium for medical purposes; rather, we require that opiate products, including morphine for pain relief and paregoric for diarrhea, be standardized, controlled for quality, fully tested, delivered in an appropriate manner and shown to be safe and effective. Why should marijuana be any different?
Hi there usgirls....thank you for the information I don't understand though why? The information has nothing to do with cannabis or hemp.....it is about GM food and food ? Growing cells in plants and animals....nothing at all about MJ and hemp.... Not sure where you are going with this one
People are not impressed with GM foods..... In Europe that are against it big time.... Like putting a slug gene in you potatoes or something along those lines .... Let me know what you are getting at .... MJ ... Hemp please
