Great read. Thank YOU. I love to read the honest truth about marijuana. Not all people are mindless puppets to the government believing everything they tell you is correct or of benefit. Marijuana is proven to help in many ways. Thats why they used it for centuries.

The body needs nourishing, so does the mind!

Some new facts I learnt. Interesting and saved!

Hi Alicia, isn’t amazing what you can find out when you dig around.

Not sure how marijuana was used in treating labor pain – maybe another way of getting the woman to relax and go with the contractions.

As for treating ‘absent mindedness’ you’d have to wonder what came first (ie the chicken or the egg)

cheers

Hi Leisureguy,

Always love finding out fascinating facts about things.

Thanks for the grammar lesson — I get in too much of a rush sometimes and mess up all the rules..I really need an editor…and I never mind being corrected…

Now off to correct the text…

cheers

Fascinating facts, Liz! I was especially intrigued by marijuana’s former use for labor pain. Wow. Also by Shen Nung’s claim that it was effective in treating “absent-mindedness,” especially given how, today, people use terms/phrases such as “burnt out” and “stoner” when referring to someone (who may or may not have smoked a lot of pot) who acts in absent-minded ways.

Very interesting and useful article. Thanks.

One request: *please* learn that the possessive of “it” is “its” (no apostrophe). You don’t write “hi’s” for the possessive of “he”, do you? “It’s” is a contraction of “it is”. The possessive personal pronouns (my, our, your, his, her, its, their) do NOT use apostrophes. Many thanks.
