Cannabis & the Pharmaceutical Industry
- At least 100,000 people die each year from prescription drugs according to the US government. 0 from cannabis.
- CBD oil has no withdrawal symptoms or no addictive properties that many painkillers do.

Cannabis VS Pharmaceutical Drugs
The pharmaceutical industry is obviously aware of this and are producing synthetic, trademarked cannabinoids which might look like an attractive option, don’t have the cannabinoid synergy affect and health benefits that simple plant extracts do.

In New Zealand one can get a prescription for Sativex which is CBD and THC actually from the cannabis plant. This is probably one of the best pharmaceutical options but has a 1:1 ratio of CBD and THC, not something one would find in a natural cannabis oil extract or hemp CBD. It is all the cannabinoids working together which makes cannabis so good, and the reason why it has been grown and consumed for thousands of years.
