Natural Cannabis found in Marijuana helpful for MS but the patent is held by U.S. government
Twice as many patients with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) that were prescribed cannabis reported relief from muscle stiffness over the placebo while cannabis also provided better relief of body pain, muscle spasms, and sleep disturbances. In the MS study published online on July 12 in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry. Dr. Zajicek states that overall, progression of disease in this group … was less than expected… In other words, cannabis appears to have slowed the progression of the disease also. This is the strongest evidence behind using cannabinoids for symptom relief in MS so far.
Oddly enough, the US government holds patents on the medicinal attributes of marijuana’s usage. This is the same government that denies its citizens the legal right to use medical marijuana.
It seems logical to conclude that if our government now owns the rights to a “natural substance” through patenting that the U.S. government knows that marijuana has valid medicinal properties. So why is the U.S. government so adamant in outlawing medical marijuana and unwilling to admit that marijuana has valid medicinal properties? Some 60 percent of Americans in our “democratic” society believe that doctors should be allowed to prescribe marijuana and yet the man with the gun and handcuffs says “NO.” That’s not democracy!
