Another few points that are often ignored with regards to weed: The health benefits of it are many, however no doctors recommend smoking it. Smoking anything can cause severe lung damage as well as cancer. Medicinal marijuana is usually consumed in the form of edibles, oils and pills.
Additionally, medicinal marijuana is generally strains that have higher concentrations of the healthy chemicals, and lower concentrations of the high-causing chemicals. There are plenty of people on medicinal marijuana who function 100% normal, and whose quality of life has improved tremendously due to taking it. I’m contrast, street or recreational marijuana, is usually(not always, there are strains that don’t obey this “rule”), grown for higher concentrations of the high causing chemicals. As a further matter of fact, many times street weed is cut with other, far far heavier drugs. In some countries, up to 50% of street weed contained either PCP or crystal meth.
