Bird Flu and Cannabis

[fathertedsmate]

you are a star bob, i understand and can visualise every thing that you say, the simple deal on flue is like all illness you are in possesion of a body that is acidic, and probably polluted with candida, why are you acidic,answer that question and you will be able to collect your pension for a lot longer than was planned

[locdasmoke]

I make a bottle of canna-tea every week and store it in the fridge and at night or when I have crhonic pain in the day time, I take a small dose and it always does the trick. I recently had the flu, so instead of drinking my canna-tea cold, I just heated it up in the microwave and had a dose of it. After an hour instead of feeling the usual relaxing high and pain relief I get from chronic pain, I felt tired and almost a bit sicker, so I went to bed and in the morning I woke up feeling better

[locdasmoke]

so my conclusion is that it does help against the flu, but instead of relieving the symptoms like tylenol or ibuprofen, it enhances the symptoms and makes me not want to do anything else then rest in bed and sweat it out.. I usually get sick for a week, but I got over the flu within 2 days, so that says a lot.

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

@locdasmoke Hi, when you say he you talking about a water extract of cannabis?

[TerrierBram]

Eating marijuana is effective, if this marijuana is made medical active. Can be done by put it in the oven and heat it for at least 20 minutes on 225°K, around 110°C.

[AvidiaNirvana]

Wish I could get a hold of some of those lozenges over here =D

[dizyootum]

marijuana is also good when you have a stomach virus

[silverbackman]

You can vape cannabis too if you don't want to eat it, vaping is 100% healthy like eating.

As far as smoking cannabis while you have the flue, well it really depends. Because yeah I have had flues in the past where smoking cannabis helped a lot and it gave me an appetite and symptom relief. There have however been other times wear smoking cannabis only made my cold worse and increased irritation in the throat and lungs (but still providing the medical benefits). Try it out and see for yourself.

Curious what happens to a 56 year old man with total respiratory failure after contracting H1H1?

While the Doctors are busy playing pocket pool with themselves, the family members takes matters into their own hands!

Google ... "Intravenous Vitamin C Saves NZ Man with Flu Damaged Lung"

[EssiacHempLaetrile]

Curious about H1N1 as well my pick for 2009 video of the year?

You Tube ... "A Special Interview with Dr. Shiv Chopra By Dr. Mercola (Part 1 of 8)".

If the name Dr. Shiv Chopra rings a bell he's the Canadian Doctor that stood up to Monsanto, concerning BGH!!

[ingrowntoenailman]

pure cannabis smoke opens the airways...

seriously, it;'s the opposite of cigarette smoke effect... research it (most of the good research was buried/burned in the 60's but it's still out there if you know where to look!)

[satanic6ritual]

i'm no expert in this but for those that want to eat it i've found some information on it. here's the procedure. you can put the medical cannabis in a blender or coffee bean grinder. get it good and chopped up - this is important. add it to 1 lbs unsalted butter and 2 cup water. boil the water and add the butter. once melted reduce heat to low and add the grounded cannabis. simmer for exactly 22hrs not to high or low. this will extract the thc. keep frozen to resuse. don't use too much

[Eric3575]

Alright but how much marijuana do you need?

[AcadianFragz]

nah just look up chef hans cooking with weed

[agreeableviews816]

Thank you ever so kindly for your expertise, brother. I am subsribing to your videos and adding you as a YouTube friend.

salaam/peace.

[SweetKooshy]

i have the flu right now...if i smoke will it be harmfull to me or not? because i have a serious amount of pain in my back from aches and also up my neck.

please respond

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

Hi, As a scientist, I would eat it and not smoke it. Let me know your results

drbob

[SweetKooshy]

well...i ended up smoking it and it made me totally forget that i even had a fever, but as far as the aches, they still slightly lingered around. but what i liked best is that i could finally lay down and take a nap since i had been up constantly throughout the night.

i will try eating it next time though if my illness does not go away ;)

[satanic6ritual]

don't you listen? dar... he said eat it not smoke it..

I replied to a comment of yours in this video over a month ago ... "I would really appreciate any information / articles you have on people who have a J-Pouch (removed colon) & use Medical Marijuana to help there condition."

All I'm seeking is knowledge / articles on the use of Medical Marijuana to lessen the 6 night washroom trips for a friend of mine with a J-Pouch.

But it looks like your more interested in other subjects considering your quick reply to "SweetKooshy".

[vremetal]

I smoke bud every day.... haven't had the flu in years.

[VeryFunnyGifs]

lul, same SHIT hahahahah

[MasterBeatBlaster]

does that mean vaporized marijuana would be dangerous aswell?

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

I have sensitive lungs and just using a vaporizer bothers them, so that tells me it is an irritant and promotes proinflammatory responses. No good for ARDS

[Covey69]

You know I believe from my own years with being a longtime what would be considered heavy smoker I think I agree with you Doctor Bob for somewhat of it; didn't they use similar studies to determine damage from Cannabis years ago only to note now it was because Mice and Men are not the same. Mice may have shown damage but us it's different, I also remember a study showing signs that the immune system is effected negatively sometimes and positively sometimes based on measured dose from smoking.

[Covey69]

I only know from my own experience and I was a smoker of both for years but since quitting only smoking years ago, I've learned it maintains my weight even through people ask about munchies. When I do get the Flu I remember it always being really bad but since the years of no tobacco I find everyone else gets sick but me with the flu or cold and when I do get the flu my own symptoms are much much less and shorter than they were years ago. I was allergic to cigarettes; smoked a half a pack a day.

[Covey69]

And now since I have been introduced to the eating of it's essential Oil it is the most amazing health benefit anywhere, I believe. Smoking burns away and causes deCarboxylization to the medicine so as to only about 10% reaches you of it's miraculous inflammation ability. Once eaten you will know within a very short time it's benefits if you suffer and inflammatory disease.

as well as curing Cancer, look up Rick Simpson, God Bless him. :)

[91177info]

Very interesting and I know it would work if you were able to get high grade cannabis and not the crap that is around nowadays.

[Vinseneb]

Ha Ha! very good point.

Breast Cancer & Apocrine Sweat Glands

Antiperspirants, Deodorants (that contain Aluminum) & Botox job is to block the underarm sweat gland called the Axilla.

Once the Axilla is blocked the next closets Apocrine sweat gland is the Areola located around the nipple!

Excessive amount of Apocrine sweat for the Areola.

one, six, zero, four, five, nine, nine & one

[stuanemma]

Subscribed Dr Bob, I like the look of this channel, also for the others reading I read some interesting stuff on silver recently, and if like me you cannot afford the latest in nano bonded solutions just having silver around you worn or even using silver cutlery, silver cup etc all these things help too remember the saying "brought up with a silver spoon in his mouth" (historically known to be health beneficial)but if you use a silver cup or your own magnetic resonance it will be good for you.

[stuanemma]

silver cup and or your own magnetic resonance it will..........

[EssiacHempLaetrile]

Google ... "World Wide Wounds Silver MRSA"

[stuanemma]

Tip top tastic tip from a brit in Belgium (next door to holland) TINCTURE oh yes you heard it here maybe first but if you are ill and have respiratory probs then I have found the best way to get THC into the servo is to make a tincture.

Simply take your favourite smoke (works good with kush as has a sweeter taste, and not so good for smoking) or even in my case save your sticks up (twigs) and put them all into a quarter bottle of vodka or whatever and wait 4 weeks minimum (the hard part)voila

[Covey69]

Please forgive me but I have to disagree on the statement that a Ticture is best becasue I believe you use alcohol to water down the medicine making it less affective. You're best method would probably be in keeping it in a essential oil (pot oil) state and feed it as is or in capsules but since everyone is different on dosages , I believe I would leave it in the form Rick Simpson uses.

Just an Opinion.. :)

[stuanemma]

How do I extract the Essential Oil? I suppose I could evaporate my tincture and take it from there as the alcohol is used as a solvent in my case to dissolve the active ingredients? also does the essential oil contain mainly BCD as oppose to THC too? As I have found that to be the case with resin? Open Question.. :)

[medicalcannabisjourn]

you can also use glycerine

[chyn0813]

I understand smoking can be harmful, but what about the method of vaporizing where mainly just THC and cannabinoids are released

[watercup123456]

I love your videos!

I will disagree only somewhat on smoking, I agree that inhalation of hot gas and particulate matter is harmful. I think though the method of smoking can greatly reduce or increase this harm. MAPS has done studies that show using dry and water pipes is more harmful, and that smoking generally only a paper filtered or unfiltered joint will incur minimal risk as opposed to someone smoking bongs, who will have more respiratory problems.

[watercup123456]

I agree with this MAPS assessment as in personal life I have found dry and water pipes more harsh and a higher incidence of respiratory illness when smoking them. I try to only smoke unfiltered 'cigarettes' now and find it to be the preferable method if smoking.

Again on bird flu and swine flu, which I have come down with swine flu, I can attest that THC is AMAZING (even with smoking, as I find eating does not work well for me) eliminating pains, headache, vomiting I could not work without it!

[watercup123456]

And I am not saying smoking is not harmful, it definitely is, but I feel what one is smoking, and how its smoked (or vaporized), can in my opinion largely eliminate the risks associated with smoking. Also I have a healthy immune system + try to keep my health in check by working out, keeping good nutrition (and with any given person genetics helps too). I think a person needs to assess all factors in creating a risk assessment for themselves to determine how much smoking will affect their health

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

Normally, It may not manner whether someone smokes cannabis or not, but I believe, based on sound science, that smoking with the flu can help kill you. Eating it with the flu may help you get better.

drbob

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

Hi guys, you have to remember what I'm talking about here -- the bird flu. All I'm saying is that the bird flu is already so inflammatory and that is what's causing death. Any smoking will exacerbate this specific problem where as eating it will minimize the problem (death).

[MrDuffy81]

Don't smoke it?

Whatever...

[hypnofan35]

i had a fairly nasty personal case of the asian flu in 1968. i did not die of course, but it certainly was agonizing and for a long time (about a month). I could certainly see how someone could easily die from one of these variations. It's hard to see coming over the time horizon. One day it could be here and and people would die from congestion, before that aspect of the condition passes.  There are so many people with asthma thes days. People die from asphyxiation from that too.

[hypnofan35]

What this sounds like to me is that the medical industry is more like a medical religion with an unending stream of subversion and denial of truth in an incremental profit taking hierarchal way. It is as if everthing exists for the most common of all prizes "CASHOLA", and everything else in reality exist as and after thought to "Cash Now". It is like we are in a huge "lying competition, where anti truth is more valuable than truth. Human reality is top heavy and unstabile.

[1984willem]

I suffer from post traumatic stress disorder 3 years i'm now 24, my psychiatrist council me antidepressants or a antipsychotic, but i listen to dr Bob instead. I now take cannabis about 6 months frequently sometimes i eat brownies or i just smoke it.

I don't say i am the old person again, but my friends notice that i'm more active and more outside the house and thats true.

I hope one day i can function in society again.

I have luck i live in Holland, so i can buy legal from a coffeeshop.

[ganjaking187]

i live in canada and we all use cannabis here. the only reason cannabis isnt legal is cause of its medicinal use, if it had no medicinal use it would be legal, its a major threat to the pharma industry and anybody who knows anything about this world knows that money rules.hopefully one day humans will grow out of such animal behaviors

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

widespread use of legal medical cannabis would devastate profits of pharmaceutical companies, which would mean reduced contributions to the BLPs that run the country.

[stuanemma]

BLP's?? Go on lol amuse me. ps Thanks for the post.

[chrychek]

Great post, and thank you!

[SarahSoulFood]

I have RR MS and I eat Cannabis daily. I rarely even get a cold now. Cannabis gives me the  dignity and quality of life that politicians try to take away.

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

Thank you Sara for sharing. Viewers should visit your site to better understand the significance of cannabis as a medicine

[tokinGLX]

very good information that was explained very well. thank you for the rundown dr bob!

[theycallmeken]

Excellent information!

[dukeoforegon]

Does the immune system start with our digestive system and wouldn't eating cannabis actually strengthen our immune system overall by putting it into correct balance throughout our bodies? Also thanks for posting all those great videos,Later Steve,,,

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

Not always, the dialogue between our immune system and pathogens that infect us is very complex. What is good in one situation can be bad in another.

[Covey69]

Not for Cannabis, I don't believe.

Is their ever a time when a disease or something debilitating and needed inflammation to kill it?

or is inflammation always bad for us?

I figured you's probably know..

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

There are situations when a strong inflammatory response is needed to control infection such as when fighting intra cellular infections such as tuberculosis and Legionella disease. Other infections ppear to be actually facilitated by the proinflammatory biochemistry which seems to be the case with for example HIV

drbob

[EssiacHempLaetrile]

I would really appreciate any information / articles you have on people who have a J-Pouch (removed colon) & use Medical Marijuana to help there condition.

[ismi80]

i just had flu and ate brownies...dont have it anymore

works for me too

havent taken pills for years only drug you ever need is cannabis...

[theeeees]

Would the heat from vaporizing cannabis exacerbate flu symptoms?

Would the vapors be harmful?

When you say eating cannabis do you mean after it has been prepared in order to deliver a high?

Good Video

[doctorbobcannabuzz]

My lungs are extremely sensitive to irritation. The vaporizer is much better than smoking, but it still bothers me so I conclude it would still exacerbate a flu infection's inflammatory response. Cannabis edibles come in many forms that should work. We are in largely untested areas with this topic but eating worked well for me and Steve Kubby when we recently had the flu.

[Covey69]

Me too and check out this article

This is a title which I hope you lot do a Google search on and read, it will confirm the belief on Cannabis and it's abilities against even the Spanish flu.
