  • An Ayurvedic Approach to the Use of Cannabis to Treat Anxiety By: Danielle Bertoia at (Approximately) Nearly 5000 Years Old, Ay
    An Ayurvedic Approach to the use of Cannabis to treat Anxiety By: Danielle Bertoia At (approximately) nearly 5000 years old, Ayurveda is touted as being one of, if not the oldest healing modality on the planet. The word Ayurveda translates from Sanskrit to “The Science of Life” and is based on the theory that each of us are a unique blend of the 5 elements that make up the known Universe and our planet. Earth, air, fire, water and ether all combine together to create our physical form. When living in harmony with the rhythms of nature and in accordance to our unique constitution, health prevails. When we step outside of our nature by eating foods that are not appropriate, exposing ourselves to outside stressors, and by ignoring the power of our internal knowing, we then leave ourselves vulnerable to dis-ease. Doshic theory reveals to us that these 5 elements then combine with one another to create 3 Doshas. Air and Ether come together to create Vata, Fire and Water to create Pitta and Earth and Water to create Kapha. As we take our first breath upon birth, we settle into our Primary, Secondary and Tertiary doshas, also known as our Prakruti. This becomes our initial blueprint, our Health Touchstone if you will, which we will spend our lifetimes endeavoring to preserve. As time and experience march on, we may begin to experience a distancing from this initial blueprint, a disconnect from our true health, also known as our Vikruti. Outside stress, incorrect food choices, our personal karma and incorrect seasonal diet can all contribute to an imbalanced state within the doshas.

  • Cannabis in the Ancient World Chris Bennet
    Cannabis in the Ancient World Chris Bennet The role of cannabis in the ancient world was manifold, a food, fiber, medicine and as a magically empowered religious sacrament. In this paper the focus will be on archaic references to cannabis use as both a medicine and a sacrament, rather than as a source of food or fiber, and it’s role in a variety of Ancient cultures in this context will be examined. Unfortunately, due to the deterioration of plant matter archeological evidence is sparse and “Pollen records are frequently unreliable, due to the difficulty in distinguishing between hemp and hop pollen” (Scott, Alekseev, Zaitseva, 2004). Despite these difficulties in identification some remains of cannabis fiber, cannabis beverages utensils, seeds of cannabis and burnt cannabis have been located (burnt cannabis has been carbonized and this preserves identifiable fragments of the species). Fortunately other avenues of research regarding the ancient use of cannabis remain open, and etymological evidence regarding cannabis use in a number of cultures has been widely recognized and accepted. After nearly a lifetime of research into the role of psychoactive plants in human history the late Harvard University Professor of ethnobotany, Richard Evans Schultes commented: "Early man experimented with all plant materials that he could chew and could not have avoided discovering the properties of cannabis (marijuana), for in his quest for seeds and oil, he certainly ate the sticky tops of the plant. Upon eating hemp, the euphoric, ecstatic and hallucinatory aspects may have introduced man to the other-worldly plane from which emerged religious beliefs, perhaps even the concept of deity.

Since 1785, physicians and scientists alike have worked to discover the active chemical components and medical effectiveness of this plant (Touw 2; Aldrich). Despite its complicated legal history, marijuana has retained a place culturally and, in some countries, scientifically as an effective medical agent. As a medically edible ingredient, cannabis has also been more recently heralded as a new, even cutting edge flavor, opening a new frontier to the culinary community.

  • The Philippines
    Voluntary Report – Voluntary - Public Distribution Date: February 17,2020 Report Number: RP2020-0012 Report Name: Industrial Hemp Report Country: Philippines Post: Manila Report Category: Product Brief Prepared By: Perfecto Corpuz Approved By: Morgan Haas Report Highlights: Hemp, marijuana, and cannabis from the plant Cannabis sativa L. are terms interchangeably used in the Philippines. It is a prohibited drug which carries harsh penalties for its importation, sale, manufacture, cultivation, possession, and use. Although there are exceptions to hemp imports (i.e., for medicinal use and in some processed forms), trade is minimal. Post foresees no change in the regulatory environment that would allow hemp trade in the next five years or through 2024. THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Section I – Hemp Cannabis and hemp are commonly known as marijuana in the Philippines. All three terms are interchangeably used by journalists, policy makers, and the general public. Hemp and marijuana are illegal in the country. Manila hemp, also known as abaca, is a fiber obtained from Musa textilis (a relative of edible bananas), and is mostly used for pulping for a range of uses. It is not actually hemp, but named so because hemp is a major source of fiber. Abaca is widely cultivated in the Philippines and was used mainly to make Manila rope. Now it is used for special papers (e.g. teabag tissue) and is more expensive than wood pulp. Section II – Hemp Production Hemp is not legally cultivated in the Philippines.
