Title: Marijuana edibles a boon for pediatric medicine


1
Marijuana edibles a boon for pediatric medicine
  • Medical marijuana is still fighting for
    acceptance within the medical, legal, political
    and social fraternity of our society. Whereas
    historical evidence and current research points
    towards a different story where medical marijuana
    and marijuana edibles could have a bigger and
    better role to play in the treatment of
    untreatable diseases and conditions. People who
    are unable to find a cure for a particular
    disorder or problem will pass on marijuana
    edibles as something that is unacceptable to the
    society as a whole. A certain stigma has been
    attached with marijuana edibles that have
    portrayed this magical, wonderful herb in the
    category of banned products in many parts of the
    world.
  •  
  • Marijuana edibles still fighting to be accepted
    as a medication
  •  
  • Many medical practitioners do not approve the use
    of cannabis out of residual fear. This is
    probably because they never read about the
    benefits of cannabis in medical school or are not
    really ready to accept the benefits that can be
    derived out of this wonder drug.

Of course one needs to tell about the side
effects and the after effects of using cannabis
as a drug for treatment, which of course needs to
be a norm in allopathic treatment of diseases and
disorders. Apart from that the stigma attached
with this is deeply etched within the minds of
medical professionals that they are unable to
advise the use of marijuana edibles even when
they know that it is the only life saving remedy
available for a particular situation. Things need
to change and they need to change in a direction
which acts in the best interest of the majority
of the people of the society.   Historical
evidence that marijuana edibles were used as a
healing agent   Doctors almost 100 years ago
understood the healing powers of medical
marijuana edibles. They were aware that medical
marijuana edibles are laden with healing
compounds that provide relief from pain and
sufferings to patients. The 20th century saw a
focus on churning out more money which led to
pharmacies carry out a hate campaign against
medical marijuana edibles so that they could
increase their profits. Many doctors fell for the
money that was being offered in huge amounts.
Iodine and medical marijuana edibles were the
medicines that were used extensively in the 19th
century.

Low toxicity of marijuana edibles make it a fit
to be used in pediatric medicine   Medical
Marijuana edibles have been tested and known to
treat and lower the effects that arise out of
autism. Although till date it has not been proven
that it can cure autism but when compared to
allopathic medicines medical marijuana edibles
have been know to do a much better job as
compared to the pills that make a kid's life
worse over a period of time. THC chemicals that
have come as a mainstay to replace marijuana have
a very bad effect on kid's general health.
Research and development has proven that medical
marijuana edibles are effective in creating a
medication that does not affect the overall
health of kids especially when administered in
kids suffering from autism. Its just a matter of
time before we are able to reduce the side
effects and present it as a wonder drug for
pediatric medicine to the medical world. Article
