Ganja Tea: Natural Remedy to Combat the Common Cold...

Another country heard from.

Thanks for the contribution.

AH HA HA HA HA

Well,I guess everyone has a right to their own opinion...

Haha nice voted up

Drink two cups before I drink two cups & then I drink two more...I love that idea...

Good point, glad you were on this thread, very knowledgable

it helped me. and nobody said it was a cure. it is said as a "remedy" which is not at all the same as a cure. and seriously it helped with my pain. and also i don't think anybody thinks its a cure as in "oh my god this will always work! like the polio vaccine!" nobody is that stupid. relax.

From Wiki: "The common cold is due to a viral infection of the upper respiratory tract. The most commonly implicated virus is a rhinovirus (30–50%), a type of picornavirus with 99 known serotypes. Others include: coronavirus (10–15%), influenza (5–15%), human parainfluenza viruses, human respiratory syncytial virus, adenoviruses, enteroviruses, and metapneumovirus.

In total over 200 serologically different viral types cause colds. Coronaviruses are particularly implicated in adult colds. Of over 30 coronaviruses, 3 or 4 cause infections in humans, but they are difficult to grow in the laboratory and their significance is thus less well-understood. Due to the many different types of viruses and their tendency for continuous mutation, it is impossible to gain complete immunity to the common cold."

Or put more succinctly as I did above, not a single virus but many. No cure. Not now, not ever. You'll just get better after a few days naturally. Or die...

It probably just relieved the pain from the fever which marijuana will do. Everyone gets over the cold after a week or so, so people are more inclined to think something cured them if they used it before they got better.

Artificially intelligent nanomachines perhaps? In the future. Perhaps that will cure all disease at the microscopic level. Mankind will more likely use them as weapons though.

I saw nothing saying cannabis fights the common cold in this article. No link, no study, I don't go by word of mouth claims for 'cures'.

"Btw did you guys know that LSD cures Multiple Sclerosis?" Really EmperorThan? How did you figure that out? Did you do a double blind study I assume? "No, but I did just make it up. So therefore it MUST be true!"

yes :) right on :) i agree. also you know what i have friends who are rasta/rastafari/ras tafari (some people call this religion rastafarianism) and its unfair because it is part of their spirituality and in this country we are supposed to have freedom of religion so yes it should definitely be legal. often i use this case: how many people die every year from alcohol-related deaths? many many hundreds of thousands. marijuana? i don't think any. if there are some freak cases of that its certainly not like alcohol, and alcohol is legal (which it should be) but way more dangerous. people just have cultural biases. in some cultures and places in the world, people are cool with ganja and uncool with alcohol. and i think as much pot is used in the u.s. as alcohol is...its just not counted officially how can it be lol...anyway peace brother or sister. and yes the tea actually helped me. did you know they sell it in cofeeshops in the netherlands? thats where i first had it. its amazing how effective it was so much better than the pills you can buy at the pharmacy that have all those bad side effects and haven't been around as long so who knows what its doing to you in the long run. cannabis has been around for a long long longggg time. peace :)

It's because no one's gonna do your homework for you.

You wanna know if something is true? If there is hard evidence to back up the claim?

Look it up yourself.

Gotta have our entertainment, I guess.
Logic takes a backseat to fun.

Youuuuu sound like an unhappy person. And you also don't seem to get the point here that not one person has called this a cure of any sort...it has been said a few times even that it's notttt a cuuuuuure.

("Real S#&T") + ((Agreeing with you)) = themotivateddropout

I totally agree with you..

I apologize for not answering your question earlier,But it help reduce pain,and mild fevers...

most certainly...

Yes,Very much so...

Correctamundo

yes very much so...Add a touch of real butter to the tea...

You need to add the butter before boiling the tea so that the leaves can release the THC into the butter - adding milk, butter or cream after the tea has been cooked doesn't help.

On the other hand, marijuana leaves do contain many other alkaloids which are soluble in water, some of which do have medicinal properties too. We can buy hemp tea here in Switzerland - it contains only tiny traces of THC but has great qualities (tastes delicious) and are positive for the health.

You are a fount of wonderful and useful information.
So glad you are here.

it also binds to glycerin and alcohol

Yes, a friend of mine made a tincture using 151 & some very fine greenery. That stuff was great. Tasted horrible. Worked wonderfully. Just a teaspoon full. MMmm

Nice :)

I agree with you tverdell,That would be great....

What is preventing you from creating one?

& Arthritic pains as well...That's some good medical insight timetide..
