Marijuana users often (but not always) get the munchies, a stimulated appetite for food, which, at this time, makes cannabis the very best medicine on the planet for anorexia.
Hundreds of thousands of Americans in old age, convalescent wards, or hospital situations have anorexia. Most could be helped by cannabisyet these Americans are being denied a healthy life by governmental policy dictated by government police!
This effect can also extend the lives of victims of pancreatic cancer (eat or die). However, the DEA and U.S. government prevented any research or use of cannabis in pancreatic cancer therapy since 1976.
They have effectively allowed tens of thousands of persons to die each year, denied the right to live relatively normal, healthy, and productive lives.
