Cannabis World Journals No.24

Cannabis is probably the one medicinal plant that has contributed the most to improving the quality of life of millions of people. However, for many years, retrograde information has distorted reality. Despite this, it could be said that the plant is a true survivor. For a long time, there have been numerous detractors and opponents. That is evident when issues concerning cannabis and its curative properties are raised in assemblies, regardless of the plant's regulations, cultivation control, sale, and uses. This dissent leads to a senseless struggle and a sterile verbal quarrel because it creates anarchy of didactic information and knowledge of the medicinal plant. The position they assume of not listening to reasoning that implies life and hope is sad. In these circumstances, cannabis could be called the Robin Hood of…

Since ancient times, and mentioned in the Old Testament and the Talmud, there has been a prolific and extensive relationship between cannabis and Judaism. The Polish etymologist Sula Benet, from the Institute of Anthropological Sciences in Warsaw, affirms that the word cannabis has its origin in the Semitic language. Among others, the mention of hemp (Kane-Bosm) appears when God orders Moses to prepare sacred oil that includes, among other spices, Kane Bosm, which in Hebrew and other ancient languages means "aromatic reed."

Throughout the ages, the two words "kaneh" and "bosm" were united into a single word, "kannabos" or "kannabus", an expression found in the Mishna, the Holy Book of…

The hemp industry worldwide is currently experiencing a boom as a raw material in various sectors such as medicine, food, paper production, fabric, and building materials. However, according to current trends, it has particular relevance in the health area (medicine). In short, the use of hemp is setting the direction in crucial aspects of the world’s economy. Therefore, if we have a versatile plant that we can use widely in various industries and meets the standards of industrial profitability and environmental conservation, why not use it for strategic commercial purposes?
