Marijuana Reconsidered – Lester Grinspoon

For a remarkable and insightful book on cannabis sativa, I would suggest reading Marijuana Reconsidered by Lester Grinspoon. The book provided the first real scientific investigation into the psychedelic properties of cannabis sativa. I found the section by Mr. X (Carl Sagan) to be informative, accurate, and humorous. The fact that marijuana was documented, by William Osler, long before the 1930’s to be the most effective cure for a migraine was a complete surprise to me. I highly recommend this book and any other by Lester Grinspoon.

Hemp Oil and Hemp Seed

Hemp is one of the oldest complete proteins grown by humans.  Hemp provides an incredibly rich source of omega-3 and omega-6 in the perfect 3.75:1 ratio. Also, hemp contains GLA which improves skin and hair health. Hemp oil provides a better source of omega-3 and omega-6 than fish oil and without the scare of Mercury poisoning.

 

Interestingly, the first paper made in China was from hemp fiber. Here is a cool shop that sells various clothing items made from hemp.
