Ppl should be able to do what they want. Even if it might hurt their health.
I like Dr Joes attitude, he can’t save the world and some folks don’t even want to be saved from living the life they choose. But his intentions are good, not to realistic and I am not sure he’s right about alcohol being a better drug. One thing about talking about these things, calling people names is never good, and doesn’t prove a point one way or another. It does show lack of respect and that sometimes is just as bad as being unhealthy.
You’re wrong. Cannabis has over three dozen proven health benefits including the inhibition of tumor development and alleviation of parkinson’s disease. THC is also a powerful antioxidant. Only good things come from marijuana use. I understand why uneducated people think it’s bad but please do not believe in the media’s lies.
You deserve to die you know nothing about nature or plants. Cannabis is a 100% all natural non toxic medicinal plant SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN TO INHIBIT CANCER CELL GROWTH. annual deaths from tobacco: 400,000 deaths from cannabis since human existence: 0
why dont you smoke fagget
@antiagingdr -of smokers (I say a lot of them because there are also some who just smoke because they want to get fucked up, usually young(er) people. I think that’s the teenager thing which I explained at 3)).
So, this has been a LONG comment. But I do think you need to try and think about this before you say some of the things you’ve been saying about drugs, meds and alcohol. I will not say wheter or not I use drugs, alcohol or regular meds. I would like you to figure that out on your own. 🙂
@antiagingdr – as you are now when you’re on my territory, when I would ask you questions and make it really difficult for you, something which I do every single day, something which I’ve been doing for quite a few years and am good at? You would probably like it at that time if there was a glass of water standing next to you, to distract you a bit from the tough questions, to clear your head, give you a moment to think about what you’re going to say… I believe that the same goes for a lot-
@antiagingdr – myself on the back here). Do you think I’m a smoker?
I do not think there’s anybody out there who needs dope to be theirselves. I do however think that there are people out there who like to use it to relax. When one’s relaxed, they can be theirselves right? You’re relaxed while taping this, speaking your mind. I can only encourage this since I’m studying Journalism, but would you still be speaking your mind when I would corner you with my questions? Would you still be as relaxed-
@antiagingdr – 6) Allow me to be a little bit personal here. I am not typing this while high. I do not need to use drugs to say all this to you. If I would meet you IRL I would still be able to tell you the same (though a little bit less articulate because I’m not a native speaker and tend to stutter a lot). I do not need drugs to express myself. Therefore I do not use drugs to go and express myself. I have never met any person who’s as expressive as I can be, actually (I’m not trying to pat –
@antiagingdr -People took aspirin and other painkillers for a buzz. People ARE today taking regular medicine for a buzz.Those medicins are almost considered harddrugs (or at least they are over here). If you want people to think about what chemicals they are getting into their bodies, think about that as well. There are both upsides and downsides to cannabis, as there are to regular medicins. Cannabis is just as much as a painkiller as aspirin.So why is one legal and the other one not? Mystery.-
@antiagingdr -don’t know what’s in painkillers, yet you still use them. (Or actually you might, since you were a biochemist, but a lot of people don’t know that.)
4) ‘You’re gonna decrease your ability to reproduce’. See my painkillers/other meds point, I think it’s more likely that thàt stuff will decrease your ability to reproduce.
5) What you say about using cannabis for your health is also related to the above. Lots of stuff we use in regular medicine today were once used to get you high.-
@antiagingdr -And Lindsey Lohan is young. Teenagers (and sometimes also people in their early and mid-twenties) are still exploring theirselves and their boundaries so yes, they should be kept away from harddrugs. Softdrugs can hardly do them any harm. (By the way, alcohol is also a harddrug. You might want to think about that, too.)
3a) I’d like to get back to my painkiller-argument and add something. You said ‘you don’t know what’s in it’. But do you have to know what’s in it to use it? You-
@antiagingdr -inlcude cannabis (or at least, not last time I checked). Lindsey Lohan got addicted because hey, that’s what happens when you give a teenager enough room and money to do whatever the heck she likes. That’s what also happened to a friend of mine (though he’s been clean for over 5 years now). Born into a rich family he got enough money to buy harddrugs. And sure, it’s not just the rich kids, but people who don’t have the money for it will usually not get too trapped in that world. –
@antiagingdr -also don’t know everything about a lot of other stuff we use. For instance, cellphones/tv’s/computers. Some people believe that you can get cancer from using them too much or are worried about the electromagnetic waves (sorry if that’s the wrong term, I’m not a native speaker (A)). But we still use them! Sure, you can work around them, but it makes life more pleasant if you do use them. As does cannabis.
3) Lindsey Lohan is indeed addicted to all kinds of stuff. But that does not-
@antiagingdr -like, every single minute of the day I guess? But let’s say 12hrs. That’s still a lot more than the painkillers, and also IMPOSSIBLE to do! Try continuously doing any random task non-stop for 12hrs in a row. There’s no fun and you’d want to stop doing that task after a very short while – same goes for smoking. Also, painkillers have far worse side-effects. And without the happy feelings you gain from cannabis.
2) We know what the stuff does. Sure, we don’t know everything, but we-
@antiagingdr They can also make your hair fall out and cause liver failure. You can also get addicted to them and/or get painkiller-induced (head)aches, which will cause you to take more painkillers to get rid of the pain. You wouldn’t want that right? Luckily this can only happen if you take a LOT of painkillers (say, 7-8 pills a day). And let’s look at the side-effects of cannabis. Sure, you can get somewhat addicted to cannabis. But to achieve this you would have to be stoned outta your head-
@antiagingdr While I really do understand your concern, I do believe there are some things wrong with what you state.
1) You said you take aspirin. Aspirin, and also all pain killers and medicins, are (or actually can be) bad for you. Same goes for weed, it can be bad for you. It doesn’t have to be bad. Whether the effects are fucking you up or not depends on how much of ‘the stuff’ you use. But let’s look at the side-effects of painkillers. Some of them can rip a freaking hole in your stomach.
I’m a casual smoker but I don’t think that Prop 19 is a good idea. It’s gonna go to the Supreme Court and it’s gonna cost everybody a fuckload in taxes. I’m in Illinois and we’ve got crazy laws here. It’s practically decriminalized in California so why can’t they just accept that? I support NORML but I feel like they’re trying to prove a point and it’s just going to make a bigger deal. I know marijuana isn’t harmless, but it’s not the worst thing. And I think you’d be hilarious high! LOL

IF YOU DONT WANT THE KIDS TO HAVE IT YOU WOULD BE PROMOTING PROP 19…YOU ARE MY ENEMY… STAND UP AND START FIGHTING FOR A GOOD CAUSE YOU RAT BASTARD
SOO YOUR A BIOCHEMIST…WAS…LOL…AND YOU THINK ITS BAD BECAUSE THE THC MOLECULE IS SIMILAR TO OPIUM. FAIL! IGNORANT TO THE FACT THAT THE BRAIN CONTAINS CANABANIOD RECEPTORS DESIGNED FOR THE ABILITY TO INTERPRET THIS SUBSTANCE SOOO GROW UP LIGHT UP AND SHUT THE FUUUCK UP!!!!
Putting billions of dollars in the drug cartels hands every year is not my idea of doing good. These drug cartels sell drugs to children, they rape, they murder, and keeping marijuana illegal helps donate to that cause. The corner store does not sell alcohol to children. You support the drug cartels and drug dealers? While it can be said and ring true that people should not smoke dope or drink alcohol–the reality is that drugs will always be used— legal or not. Yes on PROP 19–common sense!
