Since cannabis was brought up

[Soloma]

Thanks Rose for the links and Luis for the encouragement.

I have been having a good discussion at glp about this rsoplus idea.
http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum ... 694902/pg1

The discussion has spanned a couple of threads and I believe I have come to the conclusion that anyone could create their own oil profile for treating specific ailments through the use of genetics, concentration method and decarboxylation. This would not involve more than a cobbled together distillation set up and a digital hot plate and a timer.

Instead of doing one or even two large batches, you can split the spagyric or spagyric elixir into smaller batches so you can apply the desired durations and temperature from your heat source. This can you can decarboxylate to desired cannabinoid and terpene profile. Still lots to learn about decarboxylation but I have some good references and the knowledge to look in this direction.

There are many methods of extraction and ingestion. But let me ask you, do you extract anything from all the other fruits and vegetables you ingest? Just take out the beta carotene or the potassium? Rick Simpson used mainly leaves and stems so his oils were higher in all other cannabinoids but THC. We all know that the THC concentrates in the bracts of the female flower.

I am sure if you look around the net you can find a temperature table that indicates the vaporization point of the various cannabinoids and use a vaporizer. Or cook with it. Add to soups and sauces. Try some fresh leaves with a spinach salad. There are so many foods we can eat that promote healing, boost the autoimmune system, kill bacteria and virus, kill cancer cells, etc.

When my late wife was diagnosed with cancer, it was beyond chemo or radiation. I did what I could to get all of the things to try and save her. Cannabis was only a minor part. It helped immensely with pain and helped keep her off of the morphine. I was feeding her protein drinks with sodium bicarb and maple syrup as the only sugar. I purchased a medical grade ozone generator and was trying to get her doctor to run an IV so we could give her ozone injections. He refused. By the time I found a doctor willing to do what I asked, Cyndi died. The doctor was too late.

Cannabis is good for many things but please do not think that is all that is necessary to cure anything. You have to pace the whole body in a state that promotes healing. In the case of cancer, PH, sugars, lack of oxygen, all promote cancer cell growth.

I use cannabis for pain management. It works. To a point. But no drugs work as well or without unpleasant side effects. But it is not all that I do either.

Healing energy to all who need.

I have a question.

Cannabinoids have been discussed and it has been mentioned that there are no components or traces of THC. I am in a job whereas I am open to involuntary drug testing due to government contracts.

What is or where is the proof of this.

Hey Fred!

do you extract anything from all the other fruits and vegetables you ingest?

I have made tinctures and oils of various herbs in the past. I am currently using a calendula flower tincture I made a few years ago that I added raw garlic to so I could treat a toenail fungus. I am seeing healthy toenail!

Just take out the beta carotene or the potassium?

Not sure how to or even if I could respond, meaning I am ignorant in what you are asking of me.

I agree, we should not rely on just cannabis for anything. Used in conjunction with healthy sound life choices seems like the most sensible method for a healthy life. I myself eat healthy and try and exercise when I can, though I am by no means doing all I can.

Bluebird emailed me recently, they are having their biggest sale to date, 40% off. Coupon code is november40 which means I could buy 8oz. of their cbd complete for $255. Good time to try this stuff if you have been on the fence or know someone who might benefit.

Hey Mikado, I do not recall making a claim that there is no thc in anything we have talked about in this thread thus far. What is becoming clear and has science behind it is that you can only have thc when heat is applied to decarboxylate the naturally occurring thca(cid) into thc. I guess it will depend on the test, are they strictly looking for thc on a test or are they looking for any cannabinoid, carboxylated or decarboxylated?

This means that if the test is strictly looking for thc (psychoactive), then eating raw should not trip the test up as raw cannabis does not contain thc, only thca. The oils and rso method decarboxylates which means they all have THC in them to a degree, some very little as in BB`s claim to be >1% on their cbd complete.

Not saying it was you that said that. My question was a general question to anyone but it might have been Fred.

The test is a "pee" test. They are looking for any type of illegal drugs, from thc to narcotics.

My question was, as said, a general question in that if one ingests cannabinoids or hemp oil etc, is there the possibility that it can be detected on a urine test? I have no way of knowing the process that is employed in the testing....only if you fail...<g>

Any info would be appreciated.

Good stuff, seems like there is a plethora of means to the end we are looking for. It is all about timing and knowing how best to apply the knowledge.

Getting some love on glp for the idea, hopefully I reach enough people who will now think about this in the future when they think about rso. How many people will think about alchemy because glp is such a great place to affect consciousness change.

Thinking about the rules and regulations regarding cannabis and the distilling of spirits, it is obvious there is a concerted effort to keep people from being healthy. How do you think all of this would play out in front of a jury? What recourse does one have when faced with so many obvious unjust laws?

And meanwhile, nothing new under the sun.

This is an amazing thread!

This stuff needs to make it's way to researchers, representatives and members of parliaments across the world!

Yes I do Kevin. I was mixing the sodium bicarbonate with maple syrup and feeding to my late wife. The results were encouraging but alone it was not enough.

In regards to UA tests for drug use, to the best of my knowledge, THC is the compound the test is looking for. The presence of other cannabinoids should not adversely affect the test results. CBD is not a psychoactive compound and its presence in the body (urine) does not result in positive result in a drug test.

The body produces cannabinoids (endocannabinoids) and studies are being conducted to determine their therapeutic properties regarding cancers and other diseases. See: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22038019

London, UK, 11 December 2013: GW Pharmaceuticals plc (Nasdaq: GWPH, AIM: GWP, "GW" or the “Company”), a biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing and commercializing novel therapeutics from its proprietary cannabinoid product platform, announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued a Notice of Allowance for U.S. Application Serial Number 12/996,124, a patent which covers the use of cannabinoids for treating glioma.
Glioma describes any tumor that arises from the glial tissue of the brain. Glioblastoma, or GBM,
is a particularly aggressive tumor that forms from abnormal growth of glial tissue. According to the New England Journal of Medicine, GBM accounts for approximately 46% of the 22,500 new cases of brain cancer diagnosed in the United States each year. Treatment options are limited and expected survival is a little over one year. GBM is considered a rare disease by the FDA and the European Medicines Agency, or EMA.

The subject patent specifically covers a method for treating glioma in a human using a combination of cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) wherein the cannabinoids are in a ratio of from 1:1 to 1:20 (THC:CBD) with the intent to reduce cell viability, inhibit cell growth or reduce tumor volume. A Notice of Allowance is issued after the USPTO makes a determination that a patent can be granted from an application. The issued patent from this application will provide an exclusivity period until June 2029.

“This Notice of Allowance follows the recent launch of our first human trials in glioma and several years of pre-clinical research in the field,” stated Justin Gover, GW’s Chief Executive Officer. “The treatment of Glioma is part of our exciting new orphan drug program which includes a number of therapeutic targets and demonstrates the flexibility of GW’s proprietary cannabinoid platform in treating a broad range of disease types.”

Have a nice day!
