Cannabis is an illegal plant for free consumption in Indonesia and almost all countries in the world. In Indonesia, marijuana is included in the drug group in the Decree of the Minister of Agriculture Number 511 of 2006.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meanwhile, good news came from the Commission on Drugs and Narcotics (CND) of the United Nations (UN) which moved marijuana from Group VI to Group I. This means that marijuana is removed from the list that categorizes it as the most dangerous drug, becoming a plant that has value for medicinal ingredients. .<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, Indonesia is one of the countries that oppose it. Even though the Ministry of Agriculture had issued a Decree of the Minister of Agriculture Number 104 of 2020 concerning Commodities Assisted by the Ministry of Agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Ministry of Agriculture states that marijuana is an agricultural-assisted commodity that is included in the list of medicinal plants, unfortunately the decision is revoked and will be reviewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Marijuana contains CBD which is a chemical that impacts the brain, making it function better without making it high along with THC which has pain-relieving properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So far, marijuana has a pretty bad reputation, especially in terms of health. The use of marijuana in inappropriate and indiscriminate doses can indeed cause many health problems. For example, addiction, anxiety, or brain damage related to memory. One study even found that the risk of a heart attack increased within an hour of smoking marijuana.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even so, it seems unfair to look at marijuana based solely on the bad effects it causes. Marijuana also has a good side and can be used in terms of health if used properly. Here are some surprising benefits that marijuana can provide for health, as reported by Care2(07\/08).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Alzheimer<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Based on research by the Scripps Research Institute, marijuana is known to slow down Alzheimer’s disease that attacks the brain. These results have also been published in the journal Molecular Pharmaceutics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Anxiety<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Researchers from Harvard Medical School found that marijuana has an effect that can help calm a person’s anxiety. Of course, this only applies with the use of marijuana in the right dose. The use of marijuana in high doses can actually have the opposite effect, namely increasing anxiety and paranoid thoughts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Arthritis<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Marijuana is known to relieve aches and pains, as well as inflammation associated with arthritis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. Cancer<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Research published in the journal Molecular Cancer Therapeutics found that the substance cannabidiol in marijuana can ‘turn off’ a gene called “Id-1” that cancer cells use to spread throughout the body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5. Epilepsy<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a study at Virginia Commonwealth University, researchers found that marijuana can be used to stop epileptic seizures. However, this research has only been done on animals and has not been tested on humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
6. Glaucoma<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Researchers are currently developing a new drug based on marijuana to treat pain caused by glaucoma. This was done by researchers after finding out that marijuana is effective for treating glaucoma conditions. Glaucoma is a condition that increases pressure on the eyeball and can lead to vision loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
7. Lung health<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Research in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that marijuana can increase lung capacity. This is contrary to the belief of many people that marijuana can reduce lung capacity and ability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
8. Multiple sclerosis<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a disease that attacks the central nerves such as the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. A study conducted in the Canadian Medical Association Journal found that the cannabioids found in marijuana can reduce symptoms and pain caused by MS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
9. Nausea<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Marijuana contains at least 60 chemicals called cannabinoids and THC that can give the user a ‘floating’ effect. Even so, in the right dose and way, THC can also be used to treat nausea, including in drugs that can cause nausea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
10. Parkinson’s disease<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Research published in medPage Today found that marijuana can be used to treat tremors and improve motor skills in patients with Parkinson’s disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These are some of the surprising health benefits of marijuana. This does not mean you can immediately use marijuana if you have one of the diseases above. The use of marijuana still has to go through the right procedure and in the right dose to get optimal benefits and prevent the bad effects that marijuana can give.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
