This sourcebook combines evidence-based insights from more than 1,000 studies from cannabinoid and consciousness research to present a case for the healing effects of medical marijuana on over 100 chronic symptoms and diseases. Written by a former paramedic with a PhD in alternative healthcare, this reference shows that the subtle shifts in awareness commonly observed in cannabis-using patients vastly contribute to these compounds' therapeutic potential. The Cannabis Health Index is organized into condition-specific chapters, with ratings of cannabis efficacy for each symptom, along with recommendations for use, and sidebars that suggest related mindfulness-based practices that enhance the body's own ability to heal. Organized alphabetically from aging to wound care, with sections on a variety of conditions including infections, cancer, cardiovascular health, eye diseases, inflammatory diseases, neurological diseases, and much more, the Index reveals that the huge body of scientific studies focused on cannabis is a tremendously under-utilized repository of knowledge. In synthesizing the findings of these studies, Blesching brings clarity to the process of making informed decisions about cannabis as a valid treatment. The Cannabis Health Index presents evidence that cannabis is safe and effective when used within the proper therapeutic window, especially compared with the risks of managing chronic symptoms with pharmaceuticals
Erudovaná souborná práce, která mapuje reálný terapeutický vliv léčebného konopí na nejběžnější chronické obtíže a choroby. Autor vychází ze seriózních vědeckých důkazů a poznatků západní medicíny, nicméně zdraví chápe v celé jeho komplexnosti, uvědomuje si psychologický a duchovní rozměr tohoto fenoménu a je otevřený i nekonvenčním léčebným postupům. Autor se nenechává omezovat předsudky a oborovou vyhraněností a v kapitolách věnovaných jednotlivým chorobám se snaží nabídnout co nejširší škálu terapeutických možností.
