Remember that Marinol is synthetic THC with no regulating cannabinoids present.

Doubt you'll see the same reaction with a full oil replacement instead of plain synthetic.

Oh yeahhhhh ...

Cannabis is a orchestra, not a violin. They both make music, but it completely misses the point to think they sound the same.

Still, when you talk to the science folks, you sometimes get reduced into thinking solo instruments. It's an advance when you can talk about two at the same time. Like THC+CBD. I have to admit, that's getting better ...

There are some major nuances that are coming into view. The difference between the raw forms and the cooked forms of cannabinoids. (THCa v THC, CBDa v CBD) Very few are actually trying to understand the difference in impact between the two forms. Just isn't on the radar yet. (The orchastra just doubled in size and complexity.)

Making a virus worse? hummm .. should be killing AIDs patients left and right. HEP-C patients also .. But they aren't dropping dead. They seem to live longer than expected.

Suppressing inflammation a bad thing? Don't think so. Why are so many steroids being prescribed, if that is a bad thing ...

Suppress the immune system? sure does, but that's not the whole song the orchestra is playing.

They can be good for organ transplant due to their immunosuppressive properties, there´s more to read about it, on many other pages to.

Do Cannabinoids have a therapeutic role in transplantation?

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2923447/


And i never mentioned AIDS. But if i did get HIV, i would take it out as they have done in several studies both in vivo, in vitro and human studies. And i also said it could make it worse. That does not mean it necessarily needs to do it, the underlying cause of the tumor plays a major role, among other things. And yes, it can make viral infections worse.


Cannabinoids and Viral Infections

In all other virus infections, both in vitro and in vivo, cannabinoid treatment led to disease progression, increased pathology, and sometimes to host death.


And people think almost exclusively on reducing the tumor size, without thinking so much about the cause of it. If they only want to reduce the size, there are many things to do.

The reason cannabinoids have been shown to lead to worsen a viral disease may be due to the fact that cannabinoids increase food intake, and since food contains the nutrients for cell growth, a virus will take in more nutrients then normal allowing it to grow stronger, BUT this is the case with pure cannabinoids.

When the cannabinoids are taking in the form it is grown on the plant, with essential oils that give each plant it's odor the opposite will most likely happen, the virus will die, and the cell will go strong and healthy again. The essential oils are known to be antiviral, and antibacterial. This is why it is good to use other herbs, and foods, with your cannabis as they all do different thing, as well as add different oils or water soluble substances, that can attack different viruses or bacteria.

Cannabis is a spice that goes along with other foods just like other herbs do, not to be the main dish, and to me there is a reason for this. I think people looking at cannabis as the king medicine is looking at medicine wrong. All food is medicine, and play different roles. When taken together, and with as little processing done to it as you can get, this is the secret to being healthy, and killing disease, if it happens. Along with physical movement, as you need to get these nutrients to as much as the body as you can, and also take in more oxygen then when sedentary to get the metabolism going, food is the secret to being healthy. The problem is we have to start looking at cannabis as a part of our food, and not some special plant. We just smoke it or vape it, but it's still our food just like avocado, peanuts, sunflower seeds, beans, rice, turmeric, basil, sage black pepper, collard greens spinach,etc. All those foods I mentioned help you be healthy also, so why do we just look at cannabis like it is the only one that is special. If you were to combine these foods with cannabis, you make ONE POWERFUL medicine, we just have to open our eyes to see this.

Here's an article showing the antiviral activity of essential oils. Notice that when effect of the oils were much stronger when they were in there natural state of being mixed, then when isolated. Also, notice how the antiviral effects were different based on when the oils were applied. If the oils were applied before the virus attacked the cell or after, the effects of the oils were moderate, but they were very strong when applied to the virus itself. This is an example of how you would be protected if you viewed cannabis as a food. The herb oils would attach to the foods you eat, and protect the cell, therefore making it hard for the virus to enter a cell. You will also have some food still going through your system which will attach to the virus itself, and disabling it, allowing your immune system to get rid of it when it comes in contact with it. Hopefully you understand what I wrote, so you can see how everything works together for one result.

"Essential oils are complex natural mixtures, their main constituents, e.g. terpenes and phenylpropanoids, being responsible for their biological properties. Essential oils from eucalyptus, tea tree and thyme and their major monoterpene compounds alpha-terpinene, gamma-terpinene, alpha-pinene, p-cymene, terpinen-4-ol, alpha-terpineol, thymol, citral and 1,8-cineole were examined for their antiviral activity against herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in vitro. These essential oils were able to reduce viral infectivity by >96%, the monoterpenes inhibited HSV by about >80%. The mode of antiviral action has been determined, only moderate antiviral effects were revealed by essential oils and monoterpenes when these drugs were added to host cells prior to infection or after entry of HSV into cells. However, both essential oils and monoterpenes exhibited high anti-HSV-1 activity by direct inactivation of free virus particles. All tested drugs interacted in a dose-dependent manner with herpesvirus particles thereby inactivating viral infection. Among the analysed compounds, monoterpene hydrocarbons were slightly superior to monoterpene alcohols in their antiviral activity, alpha-pinene and alpha-terpineol revealed the highest selectivity index. However, mixtures of different monoterpenes present in natural tea tree essential oil revealed a ten-fold higher selectivity index and a lower toxicity than its isolated single monoterpenes."

And the truth is beautiful!

You've basically summed up everything I wanted to say... and expressed it muuuch more eloquently.

The highlighted portion is what the 'researchers' in the labs really need to be paying attention to. This synthesize and test stuff is really a lot of masturbating... they need to start with whole plant extracts first. Once they understand how it can be applied properly... THEN break it down and see what's what and how A interacts with B when X and Z are present.

Awesome stuff.

Stay Safe!

I tell you what, take someone with cancer on their skin and do this: Take good oil, decarbed and off a good hybrid, and water it down a little bit 20-40% lets say with coconut oil (you can go the whole hog and make holy oil but there is not need for this and the more cannabanoids the better). Tell them to apply it daily, the coconut oil aids absorption and application and see for yourself it it makes it grow or shrink.

Effect of delta 9-tetrahydrocannabinol on herpes simplex virus type 2 vaginal infection in the guinea pig

A direct relationship was noted between dose of delta 9-THC and cumulative mortalities on Day 14 following primary infection


Truthman --> Impossible for viruses to use nutrients because thay dont have metabolism. And the reason is because cannabinoids shifts cytokine profiles of the immune system. Th1 type cytokine profile (proinflammatory) Th2 type cytokine profile (anti inflammatory), and directly affects cells of the immune system.

The cannabinoid system and immune modulation

Delta 9-Tetrahydrocannabinol regulates Th1/Th2 cytokine balance in activated human T cells

And just because something works in vitro (your link), it does not mean it works the same way in vivo. Such as chloroquine that works in vitro, but not in vivo, and HYAL1 that works in vivo, but not in vitro. And with cannabinoids you see similar results. And it's not just about when you use one cannabinoid, it is also about smoking pot as I mentioned earlier. Read what the research shows instead of drawing your own conclusions. And cannabinoids like THC is not good for infections, in vivo (animal studies)

This decreased resistance is associated with suppression of the immune response to primary infection with HSV-2

Thanks to the Black Death, certain people from European decent have created genetic changes over the survival rates in the past. The CCR5 receptor, for example, is one of these genetics changes recognized in humans. Some people are genetically able to block 99.99+% of the virus structures which enter their body. This would be considered an optimal immune system, despite the fact that the patient smokes about 6grams of pure cannabinols every week.

MrDude, yours so-called "facts" are not fact at all, merely a generalization from the days of prohibition and likely a farce of the truth.

The use of cannabis is not good if you have a viral infection, it is well known in the scientific community, no matter what you think of it.

Maybe I didn't explain myself right, but what I was trying to state was the virus will allow a cell that it is living off of, to take in more nutrients for the cell to survive, which in turn helps the virus survive, and expand throughout the rest of the body. With the essential oils this will be prevented in the way which I explained.

It seems you are trying to prove your point regardless of what is being stated because I AGREED with cannabinoids themselves not stopping the virus from harming the host, BUT not when essential oils that are included with the cannabinoids, which is how cannabis NATURALLY grows. Cannabinoids account for only 25-30%, at most, of the trichomes so you have to take into account the other substances, and not just the thc or cbd. You show all of those articles, when that wasn't my point. Maybe it's because you didn't understand what I wrote, but reread it, now that I explained what I meant.

I see that you need to read cell and microbiology. And if you search and read you will see studies with animals where they are inhaling smoke from cannabis, and viral infection increases almost evenly, because of the immune suppressing properties. And comparing something similar when you also have cannabinoids that affect virtually everything in the body is difficult, or rather impossible. It does not work the way you think, or trying to explain. And your link to the studie, it was compounds from oils, ore mixtures of different compounds, nothing about they were in their natural state. (the entire oil)

I see you are just arguing to argue. You are never going to agree with me regardless of what I state, because now you are talking about smoking cannabis, and the immune system when my whole post was about using cannabis as food, and eating proper foods with it to keep the body healthy. Of course smoking is going to effect the immune system because now your body has to clean out those harmful compounds instead of dealing with the virus. Plus, most of the essential oils will be burned up being that they boil at such a low temperature, so you aren't getting that much of them when you smoke, unless it's a good hash. THINK MAN. Also, there was a reason I linked the study, and that was to show the essential oils being antiviral, and these type of oils grow ALONG with cannabinoids in the plant trichomes.

I know you have your way of thinking, and you are never going to change it unless you hear from someone you like, but you can't keep looking at one substance, and claim it is a problem when that one substance is only a fraction of the other substances within a plant. I'm done because this isn't a conversation about figuring things out, it's about who's right & who's wrong to you, because you think you are right, and like Thomas Sowell has stated "intellectuals" cause more problems then fix them because they think they know everything and when they are wrong instead of admitting it, they just push their agenda even further, causing even more problems, and you are doing this yourself. Luckily it's just a conversation. The sad part is I KNEW you were going to respond the way you did because that's how most do. Listen to this & learn something about thinking you know everything because you read it or had an idea. If I'm wrong I'm willing to admit it, because I know that is what makes me smarter, and better. I'm done with this convo so have fun with others. Arguing without any reconciliation is not my thing.

The use of cannabis is not good if you have a viral infection, it is well known in the scientific community, no matter what you think of it.

I noticed the dose level in one of these studies. 100mg per kg.

That same study noted that marijuana extract seemed inactive in this context.

Also noted is the use of ethyl alcohol for a solvent to use for injection of the cannabinoids.

How much moonshine is being pumped in via IV? That would have an effect on the immune system, I would think.

That was this study: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC414217/pdf/iai00183-0118.pdf

I have also seen a LOT of HIV and HVC patients consume very large quantities of cannabis extract.

Why do we have no reports of these kind of patients quickly dying?

 

[jamminman]

MrDude- I suspect if your brain was studied in vitro it would act the same as in vivo. Funny things happen just when trying to prove something in application to humans by testing on animals. A cat will get drunk if you feed it alcohol, but a Siamese cat will just die once it has ingested too much without getting drunk first. So a test could be concocted to show that alcohol is fatal and not an intoxicant and maybe even convince an idiot or two along the way. PCP is, or at least was, used as an animal tranquilizer but have you seen what it does in humans. The only thing you bring to real light here is your robot like programmed thought process necessary to be employed in the field you are in. It always gets me to see people that profess to have the wisdom of the world but don't really understand the real principles that it operates on.

 

[jamminman]

Also, finding your own comments helpful and other opposing ones not helpful doesn't give any more validity to your point.

 

[DryNobBob]

it might help if they documented it in the medical community, flip side is for all the stories you hear that it helps or works, why aren't they documented? It might also help on the RSO side if original dude wasn't a fugitive, JMHO. I suspect many believe in the medical field it helps with the symptoms, but is not a cure all. They seem to view it as just hypotheticals, if not documented. And does the legalization in two states affect this? Now its viewed as alcohol, isn't that a step back for the medical side of the coin?

I have also seen a LOT of HIV and HVC patients consume very large quantities of cannabis extract.

Anyone have an update on GanjaPharma's Dad? I hope he's doing well.

 

[TexS]

I know I'm really late to the party on this one but I've just heard about Phoenix tears. I took a look at Rick Simpson's site.

It appears he uses benzene as his favorite, what, solvent? I don't know if the tears will cure cancer but I do know that benzene is one of the two known causes of the type of leukemia I had that forced me into a bone marrow transplant. The other cause is Hiroshima levels of radiation.

Again, I don't know if this stuff cures anything. On the other hand, wherever you might have cancer, I don't think you want to follow it up with a bout of AML.
