Cannabis Cures Cancer and the Government Knows It


How To Make Medicinal Hemp Oil Safely


Cannabis is labeled by the US Government as a Schedule One Narcotic, meaning little to no known medical value. (Even though the US Govt holds patents that state otherwise) Marinol, which is APPROVED BY THE FDA, is synthesized THC. Millions of people are sitting in jail for using Cannabis raw, but it’s ‘perfectly fine’ to use the plant if the Government and their corporate owners take most of the medicine out of it, then get to charge you an arm and a leg for it. Why is that? I shall explain.
The US Government is well aware Cannabis has medicinal properties. How could they not? It’s been used as a medicine for at least the past 10,000 years. Even in America, Cannabis was used as a medicine for over 100 years. It was in over a hundred over the counter medicines for a wide range of reasons. Everything from pain and nausea medication to sleeping tonics.
Why did they make it illegal? It’s a long story so I won’t go into it today.. If you’d like to read about the greed and racism that caused the criminalization of the worlds most useful plant, check out this article.
Among the reasons you will learn about on the link I shared above, the US Government has even more reason to keep it illegal today. If Cannabis were to become legalized, it would eat away at TRILLIONS of pharmaceutical profits over the years. (Not including other profits like the billions they get for keeping our privately owned prisons full)

What most people don’t realize is, the Government(s) have been helping the major pharmaceutical companies stonewall natural cures for decades. (Cannabis is merely one of many they have tried to bury and discredit)
In fact, the US Government has known since 1974 that Cannabis cures Cancer. In ’72 Richard Nixon wanted a larger budget for his war on drugs. He thought that if he proved Cannabis caused lung cancer like cigarettes do, he would get the support he needed. He gave the Medical College of Virginia 2 years to do a study on the effects of THC on the body. In ’74 the study was completed.
It turns out, THC when ingested in highly concentrated forms (such as eating Cannabis oil) will attack any mutated cells in your body while strengthening and rejuvenating the healthy cells. They found the PERFECT cure for Cancer.
It worked fast, it worked well, it worked on many different forms of Cancer in ALL stages and it had ZERO harmful side effects. (Unlike Chemo which deteriorates your entire body and kills 1 in 5 patients. Not only that, but other research shows it dissolves ALL forms of tumors and can even combat super-bugs like MRSA.)
When Richard Nixon saw the results of the study he was FURIOUS. He threw the entire report in the trash and deemed the study classified. In 1976 President Gerald Ford put an end to all public cannabis research and granted exclusive research rights to major pharmaceutical companies, who set out — unsuccessfully — to develop synthetic forms of THC that would deliver all the medical benefits without the “high.”
We only found out about the study a few years ago thanks to dedicated medical and law professionals who filed Freedom of Information Requests.

The Government lied for many reasons.. One of the main reasons is Pharmaceutical Companies. They spend billions every year lobbying to keep Cannabis illegal because they make TRILLIONS off Cancer drugs and research. They are already well aware that Cannabis cures Cancer. They have a well thought out con going at the moment. Cancer patients and their loved ones will spend their entire life savings or even sell their houses and businesses in order to pay for Chemotherapy and other Cancer treatment drugs. A lot of the time they spend all that money and their loved one dies anyway. If the public found out that the Government has been lying for over 40 years, that MILLIONS of lives could have been saved and that the dying could grow the cure they so desperately need in their own backyard… The American public would be going nuts over it. This is why we need your help telling people!
Here is an article about what they did if you’d like to read more, as well as an article about more suppressed research.
Keep in mind.. The US Government also holds a Patent on Cannabis and it’s medicinal properties.

US Patent 6630507 states unequivocally that cannabinoids are useful in the prevention and treatment of a wide variety of diseases including auto-immune disorders, stroke, trauma, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and HIV dementia. The patent, awarded in 2003, is based on research done by the National Institute of Health, and is assigned to the US Dept. of Health and Human Services. In the age of information, they can no longer keep their lies about Cannabis afloat.
SHARE THIS INFORMATION EVERYWHERE!!

If you want more info about the patent, here is a link for you.

In case you are wondering the difference between a few things like Hemp oil and Cannabis oil, I figured I’d explain that too. THC is soluble in alcohol and fats only. This is why people saute it in butter and use it in things like cakes and cookies. You can make Cannabis Ghee (which is essentially Canna-butter) and use it how you would normally use butter in a recipe.
Cannabis oil is made by crushing raw Cannabis in grain alcohol (as close to 100% as possible), straining it and cooking off the alcohol VERY carefully. All you will be left with is essentially ‘pure medicine’ in highly concentrated form.
Hemp oil is made by cold-pressing the seeds of the Hemp plant and extracting the healthy oil within. It is used for things like food and fuel, but it will not cure cancer because it lacks THC. (Hence the reason it’s legal to buy at places like Trader Joe’s)
Now, I realize how badly some people are going to want to get their hands on Cannabis oil for their suffering loved ones. I’m sorry to say, the only place you can get the oil is from Cannabis dispensaries in areas where it is sold legally. Otherwise you have to make it yourself which can be highly complicated and even dangerous since you have to worry about alcohol fumes and legal repercussions if you get caught. (Here’s a video that shows you how):



Still, in my opinion it is well worth the risks since it has already saved THOUSANDS of people (and pets) from horrible deaths due to diseases like Cancer. If you would like to hear many testimonies on the subject, type ‘Cannabis cured my cancer’ or ‘Cannabis cures Cancer’ into youtube search. When you do, you will see how many people are trying to get the word out about this AMAZING cure.




If you would like info on other ways to use Cannabis, here are a few examples.
Raw Cannabis Juice, Cannabis Salve, Cannabis Ghee, Cannabis Tincture, and Grain Alcohol Extraction (aka the Cannabis oil that I mentioned above).

Still Believe Nature Got It Wrong? Top 10 Health Benefits of Cannabis.


There is no plant on Earth more condemned than Cannabis. We’re talking about a living organism which governments have taken upon themselves to designate as an illegal substance. Despite no existing evidence of anyone ever dying of a marijuana overdose, possession of this plant is still illegal in many parts. Cannabis has been found to suppress cancer, reduce blood pressure, treat glaucoma, alleviate pain and even inhibit HIV. It is an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective. Can you understand more now why it’s illegal?

No Independent Study Has Ever Linked Marijuana To Psychosocial Problems

Cannabis is one of the most powerful healing plants on the planet. Dozens of studies have made pseudoscientific attempts to indicate that young people who use cannabis tend to experience psychological, social problems and mental decline. However, there is no evidence that marijuana use is directly linked with such problems, according to the results of a study published in The Lancet.

“Currently, there is no strong evidence that use of cannabis of itself causes psychological or social problems,” such as mental illness or school failure, lead study author Dr. John Macleod of the University of Birmingham in the UK told Reuters Health.
“There is a great deal of evidence that cannabis use is associated with these things, but this association could have several explanations,” he said, citing factors such as adversity in early life, which may itself be associated with cannabis use and psychosocial problems.
Macleod and his team reviewed 48 long-term studies, 16 of which provided the highest quality information about the association between illicit drug use reported by people 25 years old or younger and later psychological or social problems. Most of the drug-specific results involved cannabis use.
Cannabis use was not consistently associated with violent or antisocial behavior, or with psychological problems.
In another study, Scientists from King’s College, London, found occasional pot use could actually improve concentration levels.
The study, carried in the American Journal of Epidemiology, tested the mental function and memory of nearly 9,000 Britons at age 50 and found that those who had used illegal drugs as recently as in their 40s did just as well, or slightly better, on the tests than peers who had never used drugs.
‘Overall, at the population level, the results seem to suggest that past or even current illicit drug use is not necessarily associated with impaired cognitive functioning in early middle age,’ said lead researcher Dr Alex Dregan.
Dr Dregan’s team used data on 8,992 42-year-olds participating in a UK national health study, who were asked if they had ever used any of 12 illegal drugs. Then, at the age of 50, they took standard tests of memory, attention and other cognitive abilities.
Overall, the study found, there was no evidence that current or past drug users had poorer mental performance. In fact, when current and past users were lumped together, their test scores tended to be higher.

The Age of Deception is Ending 


In 2003, the U.S. Government as represented by the Department of Health and Human Services filed for, and was awarded a patent on cannabinoids. The reason? Because research into cannabinoids allowed pharmaceutical companies to acquire practical knowledge on one of the most powerful antioxidants and neuroprotectants known to the natural world.
?
The U.S. Patent 6630507 was specifically initiated when researchers found that cannabinoids had specific antioxidant properties making them useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease and HIV dementia. Nonpsychoactive cannabinoids, such as cannabidoil, are particularly advantageous to use because they avoid toxicity that is encountered with psychoactive cannabinoids at high doses useful in the method of the present invention.
In a historic and significant moment in American history, last November, Colorado became the first US state to legalize marijuana for recreational use. The impact of the decision could ripple across the entire country with vast opportunities to educate millions on the top health benefits of marijuana.
With the passage of I-502 in the 2012 Washington State election, marijuana also became legal in Washington–not just for medical use, but also for recreational use. Weed is still illegal as far as the United States government is concerned, but Washington and Colorado both have yet to figure out how that will work. It’s certain that this issue will continue to evolve and smooth out as time goes by, but the remaining states will eventually follow suit or be left behind with outdated laws.

Top Health Benefits

It’s no surprise that the United States has decreed that marijuana has no accepted medical use 
and should remain classified as a highly dangerous drug like heroin. Accepting and promoting the powerful health benefits of marijuana would instantly cut huge profits geared towards cancer treatment and the U.S. would have to admit it imprisons the population for no cause. Nearly half of all drug arrests in the United States are for marijuana.


According to MarijuanaNews.com editor Richard Cowan, the answer is because it is a threat to cannabis prohibition “…there really is massive proof that the suppression of medical cannabis represents the greatest failure of the institutions of a free society, medicine, journalism, science, and our fundamental values,” Cowan notes.
Besides the top 10 health benefits below, findings published in the journal PLoS ONE, researchers have now have now discovered that marijuana-like chemicals trigger receptors on human immune cells that can directly inhibit a type of human immuno-deficiency virus (HIV) found in late-stage AIDS.
Recent studies have even shown it to be an effective atypical anti-psychotic in treating schizophrenia, a disease many other studies have inconsistently found it causing.

1. Cancer
Cannabinoids, the active components of marijuana, inhibit tumor growth in laboratory animals and also kill cancer cells. Western governments have known this for a long time yet they continued to suppress the information so that cannabis prohibition and the profits generated by the drug industry proliferated.
THC that targets cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 is similar in function to endocannabinoids, which are cannabinoids that are naturally produced in the body and activate these receptors. The researchers suggest that THC or other designer agents that activate these receptors might be used in a targeted fashion to treat lung cancer.

2. Tourette’s Syndrome
Tourette’s syndrome is a neurological condition characterized by uncontrollable facial grimaces, tics, and involuntary grunts, snorts and shouts.
Dr. Kirsten Mueller-Vahl of the Hanover Medical College in Germany led a team that investigated the effects of chemicals called cannabinols in 12 adult Tourette’s patients. A single dose of the cannabinol produced a significant reduction in symptoms for several hours compared to placebo, the researchers reported.

3. Seizures
Marijuana is a muscle relaxant and has “antispasmodic” qualities that have proven to be a very effective treatment for seizures. There are actually countless cases of people suffering from seizures that have only been able to function better through the use of marijuana.

4. Migraines 
Since medicinal marijuana was legalized in California, doctors have reported that they have been able to treat more than 300,000 cases of migraines that conventional medicine couldn’t through marijuana.

5. Glaucoma 
Marijuana’s treatment of glaucoma has been one of the best documented. There isn’t a single valid study that exists that disproves marijuana’s very powerful and popular effects on glaucoma patients.

6. Multiple Sclerosis 
Marijuana’s effects on multiple sclerosis patients became better documented when former talk-show host, Montel Williams began to use pot to treat his MS. Marijuana works to stop the neurological effects and muscle spasms that come from the fatal disease.

7. ADD and ADHD 
A well documented USC study done about a year ago showed that marijuana is not only a perfect alternative for Ritalin but treats the disorder without any of the negative side effects of the pharmaceutical.

8. IBS and Crohn’s 
Marijuana has shown that it can help with symptoms of the chronic diseases as it stops nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.

9. Alzheimer’s 
Despite what you may have heard about marijuana’s effects on the brain, the Scripps Institute, in 2006, proved that the THC found in marijuana works to prevent Alzheimer’s by blocking the deposits in the brain that cause the disease.

10. Premenstrual Syndrome 
Just like marijuana is used to treat IBS, it can be used to treat the cramps and discomfort that causes PMS symptoms. Using marijuana for PMS actually goes all the way back to Queen Victoria.
Mounting Evidence Suggests Raw Cannabis is Best Cannabinoids can prevent cancer, reduce heart attacks by 66% and insulin dependent diabetes by 58%. Cannabis clinician Dr. William Courtney recommends drinking 4 – 8 ounces of raw flower and leaf juice from any Hemp plant, 5 mg of Cannabidiol (CBD) per kg of body weight, a salad of Hemp seed sprouts and 50 mg of THC taken in 5 daily doses.
Why raw? Heat destroys certain enzymes and nutrients in plants. Incorporating raw cannabis allows for a greater availability of those elements. Those who require large amounts of cannabinoids without the psychoactive effects need to look no further than raw cannabis. In this capacity, it can be used at 60 times more tolerance than if it were heated.
Raw cannabis is considered by many experts as a dietary essential. As a powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant, raw cannabis may be right u there with garlic and tumeric.

Hemp Therapy Introduces "The Hippie Chef"

One of the best things about this movement and being involved in the Hemp Business is all the great people it allows you to come in contact with.
Over the last year now, I've had the privilege of meeting all kinds of people from all walks of life who share the same passion as I do for this amazing plant we call Hemp.


One of those individuals happens to be a very cool guy by the name of Dan Collins.......also know as.....
"The Hippie Chef".
From the first time we came in contact a few months back, I knew Dan was someone who understood exactly what was going on here. I came to find out not only is he a HUGE Hemp Advocate, but he's also doing some amazing things with The Hippie Chef.


Part of his passion is to help educate people on the importance of our food today, along with sharing ideas & different recipes, becoming a certified nutritionist, and now running a successful Hemp Business that's impacting all the lives around him.

Back in 2005, Dan  was stricken by Graves Disease  ( an auto-immune disorder that leads to over activity of the thyroid gland), which makes it difficult to regulate mood, weight, mental and physical energy levels. He also had knee & joint pain from 2 surgeries caused by a motorcycle accident. 


Dan says......"Of course I hate the Vicodin and such, tears up my gut, so I also have the medicinal card, but with the Inspirin, I found it brought down the swelling and the popping when I would get up, and now I'm also much calmer which also helps with the restless leg syndrome at night. That was one of the main things that intrigued me the most about Versativa when I was doing my research on all the health benefits of Hemp."

So after a week or so, I asked The Hippie Chef if he had noticed any changes and was it what he had expected and hoped for?

"Besides feeling positive and happy Chris, my headaches are finally gone and I've lost 7 lbs from just adding these wonderful Raw Hemp Foods to my diet! I knew when I started with this journey, I would get all the GREAT Health & Wellness of it, but NEVER thought it would also add to my recipes. The Hemphoria....... just a couple of squirts, adds zing, flavor, and most of all HEMP to my families diet, and makes my food even taste BETTER!"


How cool is that? Only The Hippie Chef could figure out how to use the one and only Hemphoria is his awesome recipes! That reminds me......You won't want to miss out on The Hippie Chef's weekly radio show every Wed. at 7pm PST & 10pm EST.  You can catch him at TheHippieChef on BlogTalkRadio. 

If there's one thing Dan and I agree on, it's that when people begin to experience the benefits of adding Hemp Foods to their diet and having significant results, we then have a responsibility to share and pass on this solution that's been misled for way too long!

Besides being able to make a difference in people's lives, were also helping to make this movement even stronger one person at a time. The shear fact that the average person regardless of race, religion, or background can also run a successful Versativa Hemp Business like The Hippie Chef is appealing to many today. 

Be sure to stay connected to The Hippie Chef on Facebook and also Twitter for all the latest news and updates. We hope to be featuring you next time and sharing your story! Until next time, Take Care and Be Well Friends!

Hemp Seed for Fibromyalgia?



If you are one of the many fibromyalgia sufferers, you know how difficult life can be with this debilitating condition. Extreme muscle pain and chronic fatigue are the most common physical symptoms, but sufferers also experience mental and emotional problems such as depression and problems focusing.
The following information is from the Mayo Clinic:
“Fibromyalgia occurs in about two percent of the population in the United States. Women are much more likely to develop the disorder than are men, and the risk of fibromyalgia increases with age. Fibromyalgia symptoms often begin after a physical or emotional trauma, but in many cases there appears to be no triggering event.”
In 2011, Versativa launched a product focusing on such symptoms to help people to stop suffering along with providing complementary nutrition at the same time. Consuming 1-2 Inspirin a day can help fibromyalgia sufferers by reducing inflammation, easing the pain and stress in the body, while increasing energy and promoting alertness.
Two months ago a fibro patient and friend named Susan reluctantly tried Inspirin at the urging of her husband, Mike.
“Wow…..was I in for an awakening! Once I started on the Inspirin, I began to notice a difference within the hour…that’s right, 1 hour! In two weeks, I was feeling so much better, I was talking to family, friends and work associates all the time about this great discovery I had found thanks to Hemp Therapy."
While Susan found relief, many others have also discovered this to be the fastest acting, best-tasting health supplement for fibromyalgia sufferers; without all the nasty side effects from today's pharmaceuticals and over the counter medications. 
If you're suffering from fibromyalgia symptoms, know that you DO NOT have to settle with this anymore! 
We encourage you to continue to research the benefits of Hemp Seed along with Marine Phytoplankton and allow yourself a chance to kick this in the butt once and for all!  

Did you know pain medications and adverse drug reactions are the 4th leading cause of death in America.....only behind heart disease, cancer and strokes! 
What does this means to you? Your risk of dying from that pain medication in your cabinet could be higher than your chance of dying from diabetes, lung disease, or even an accident. Who do you know that suffers from pain or stress?

Let HEMP be your Medicine


HEMP has been in use as medicine since the beginning of human civilization. It is the most versatile medicinal plant substance on the face of the Earth. It has thousands of different uses all of which are positive to individuals and society as a whole. 

Some of the most important medicinal use of HEMP is its well known ability to promote health & well-being to those with failing health. HEMP can restore the body’s natural balance of energies spiritually, mentally and physically to in fact promote health and well being.

In medicine today, HEMP is  effective  in  treating every variety of pain, movement disorders, asthma, glaucoma, migraines, fibromyalgia, inflammatory bowel disease,  multiple sclerosis, tourette syndrome, obsessive compulsive  disorder, alcohol abuse,  ADHD, all forms of arthritis, atherosclerosis, autism,  bipolar, colorectal cancer, depression, diabeties, dystonia, epilepsy, digestive diseases,  gliomas, hepatitis C, Huntington’s disease, hypertension, urinary incontinence, leukemia, skin tumours, morning sickness, auto-immune disorders, Parkinson’s disease, pruritis, post traumatic  stress  disorder,  sickle-cell disease, sleep apnea, anorexia nervosa, Alzheimer’s disease, forms of cancer, HIV/AIDS and opiate dependence.

It's no doubt that this "Miracle Plant" was given to mankind as a gift and was put on our planet for a reason!

When we look around today we see our world is in crisis. WHY? Is it because we've put our trust and faith into the wrong hands? Or maybe it's because were too busy being stuck in the problem! The list of reasons are endless but that's not what is important. What is however, is that we as individuals need to say ENOUGH, take a stand and quit settling!

Isn't it crazy how we cant even turn on our televisions anymore without hearing about the next miracle pill thats going to solve all our problems. The end is always the same with a huge list of potential side effects they may cause. Before we know it, we're being perscribed something else to treat that side effect. I've witnessed to many people near and dear to me go through this vicious cycle.

Ancient civilizations around the world developed a system for reading the “signatures” of various fruits, nuts, vegetables, and grains. “Signature” meaning: “sign of nature”. 
They looked at a sliced carrot and found that the core and radiating lines looked like the human eye, so they thought that carrots were good for the health of the eyes. 
The ancients considered the walnut good for the brain and the tomato excellent for the heart because of their resemblance to those organs.

The surprising thing is that modern science has confirmed and validated this ancient wisdom. 

When I discovered HEMP and all it's many benefit's and saw how it was changing people's lives, I knew I needed to be a part of that. I know for myself, if I'm not living in the SOLUTION, then I'm stuck living in the problem all over again. I did that for years, and believe me when I say, It's no way to live!

In closing, I encourage you to share whatever your SOLUTION may be. Whatever you find it in, hold your head up, tell your story, and help give someone else HOPE! 

Until next time.....Take Care, and Be Well Friends!

Welcome Back Dad!

As I sit here and write this I can't help but smile!


In some of my earlier posts I've talked briefly about my 63 yr. old father whose been struggling over the last year or so with diabetes, severe psoriosis and auto-immune disorder.

Now I should tell you that my father and I haven't always been that close. You see.....I was a real ass for a kid, and I went on into adult hood pretty much the same. Matter of fact it wasn't until I reached my early thirties that I made some pretty serious changes in my life, and began to realize that I owed my father a great deal!

It was at that time that our relationship really began to turn around. In April of 2009 we both set out on a business together, and our mission was to help people and be apart of a solution. We spent two and a half years trying all sorts of things, making mistakes, arguing back and forth about who was right and who was wrong.

Gotta love it! I laugh now, but at the time we were two stubborn bull heads who thought we knew it all. But through it all we never let it damage our relationship, and it only made us stronger!
It was the summer of 2010 when all of the sudden my Dad's health started to slowly decline. I can remember thinking, c'mon......not now!

After all, we we're a team, partners, and I needed him. How selfish was that now that I look back! 

After several trips to see different doctors he was diagnosed with a severe case of psoriosis, and auto-immune disorder. He would have these outbreaks every other week or so, and it was affecting his hands and feet. Medication after medication wasn't fixing the problem. His hands and feet were raw and would crack and could never heal completely. The poor guy even started losing his nails. Man......this was hard to watch!

We take for granted everyday the things we can do with our hands and feet.....walking, opening cans and bottles, going places in public and having people wonder.....what's wrong with that guy?
I started to see what they were saying about our health is the most important thing. Well, this only continued to get worse, and my Dad was pretty much ready to give up.

Now, one thing I learned from being involved in Health & Wellness was that there are solutions out there, and sometimes we just have to search out on our own and never give up! It's sad to say, but too many doctors today would rather just keep writing prescriptions and give their patients false hope.

So a few months back I started doing my research every night when my boys would go to bed, and I was bound and determined to help him find a solution! I made the comment once that, as long as I was alive, I wasn't going to sit back and watch my Dad give up!

Well low and behold one night I came across something that has and will change us forever. I began to learn about the power of the Hemp seed along with Marine Phytoplankton and the importance of  organic raw whole foods. Now understand folks, it was only a few months back that none of these terms were ever a real part of my vocabulary. Today, I can't wait to tell people!

So to bring you up to now......I came across a dear woman named Becca a month back, and visited her website a few different times before I asked her what do I need to do to get my Dad some samples?

Becca responded......Chris, just email me your address and I'll get some off to you tomorrow. How easy was that?

A few days later they arrived, and I couldn't wait to get em' in my Dad's hands. Now, I'll let him tell you the rest!



Amen....Right? So that brings this story to an end for now, but my hope is that people will begin to realize that they no longer have to settle for not feeling good and thinking that this is just the way things are going to be.

A beautiful thing happens when we can start to live in a solution......the problem tends to get pushed out of the way! I hope my Dad's story is able to impact someone you care about, and I hope you can spend a few more minutes here learning about the power of Versativa and Inspirin. You just never know who you might be able to impact! 

Until next time....Take Care Everyone!


Lose the stress.....Ease the pain!


Make Health a Habit.....Not an Event.....Pleasurable!
