Le cannabidiol ne peut être considéré comme un médicament et doit rester ce Cannabis thérapeutique qu’il est officiellement : un complément alimentaire. (THC et CBD) Mais un complément qui fait grand bien aux gens en souffrance ! CBD : des vertus thérapeutiques La différence entre CBD et THC ne réside pas seulement dans les effets produits par les deux substances. Elle a surtout trait aux conséquences sur la santé. Alors que le THC est toujours considéré comme une drogue (même douce) dans la plupart des pays, en raison de ses effets psychoactifs, de sa tendance à créer de la dépendance et plus généralement des risques qu’il fait peser sur l’organisme. C’est tout l’inverse en ce qui concerne le CBD. Le cannabidiol aurait, en effet, des vertus thérapeutiques majeures. Le potentiel semble pour le moins énorme. Car le CBD aurait des propriétés antalgiques et anti-inflammatoires, permettrait de lutter contre l’anxiété et la dépression, calmerait les symptômes de l’épilepsie et de la sclérose en plaques, agirait contre certains troubles psychotiques (comme la schizophrénie), entre autres effets positifs. Certaines études laissent même entendre qu’à des concentrations élevées, le CBD jouerait le rôle d’inhibiteur dans la prolifération des cellules tumorales issues de certains cancers et qu’il réduirait les risques de nécrose des artères après un infarctus. La recherche dans ce domaine ne fait que commencer, mais les perspectives sont immenses. 3- Présentation du cannabis thérapeutique et du CBD (3) Selon une récente étude, les personnes souffrant de - Douleurs troubles de l’humeur, tels que la dépression, l’anxiété - Troubles de l’appétit ou l’état de stress post-traumatique, constituaient le - Sida-VIJ groupe le plus important de patients désirant un - Glaucome traitement à base de cannabis (34,77%).

Speaker 1: This episode of Beyond the Bottom Line is brought to you by the Program on Entrepreneurship at the Yale School of Management, where we're educating students for business and society. Jen McFadden: So, welcome to this week's edition of Beyond the Bottom Line. Today we are super excited to have here at Yale Brendan Kennedy, who is the co-founder of Privateer Holdings as well as the CEO of Tilray. Brendan, welcome back to Yale SOM. We're so excited to have you here. Would love to first kind of step back a little bit, maybe to your pre-Yale SOM days and hear a little bit about what motivated you to come to the school and a little bit about your experience while you were here. Brendan Kennedy: Sure. Sounds great. Thanks for having me. I grew up in San Francisco and went to Berkeley, studied architecture, and then went to the University of Washington, studied civil engineering. And I wrote software while I was there. And I had been an entrepreneur twice before I came to Yale. I'd been a founder of two companies. Both had very small exits, but exits nonetheless. And I found myself being 31, 32 and had been the CEO founder twice. And, at that point in 2002, it was really hard to find a job. Most people don't want to hire someone who's been a CEO, twice, and a founder. Brendan Kennedy: And so I had to reinvent myself.

    Legislative framework of cannabis within the European Union. Analysis of legal status of recreational cannabis for personal possession BACHELOR THESIS Author: Aļona Mirošņičenko LL.B 2016/2017 year student student number B016104 TOMS KRŪMIŅŠ SUPERVISOR: PHD DECLARATION OF HONOUR: I declare that this thesis is my own work, and that all references to, or quotations from, the work of others are fully and correctly cited. (Signed) …………………………………. Abstract Riga, 2019 This study reflect current legal situation in the European Union regarding legislation of cannabis. Taking into account the increasing tendency of this topic, the analysis is based on the assumption that cannabis although usually perceived as a soft drug, is a transnational threat as every narcotic substance. Therefore, it is necessary to analyse and work on this matter to ensure that fundamental values of human life are not negatively affected by the growing trend of liberalization of cannabis. The focus is on the recreational cannabis for personal possession as this type of usage is referred in the statistical data of countries most often. This study is not dealing with the medical cannabis and related to it issues. The work focuses mainly on the personal possession of recreational cannabis and evaluates its legal status in European Union Member states. Research is focusing more on Portugal, Spain, France and Netherlands. The main objective of this study is to illustrate the existing current grey area in law and explain its effects on states from the legal, social and economic point of view. Two research questions of this work contribute to the better understanding of the subject matter of this thesis.
