Our government has waged a war on cannabis, while holding a patent since 2003, entitled “Cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants”. This patent states, “cannabinoids (are) useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases”, and “in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and HIV dementia.” (patent # 6630507)
Since this statement would surely seem to be the truth as known by our government, this petition requests that our government 1), release and fully disclose all information they have regarding the healing and beneficial powers of cannabis and cannabinoids, 2) encourage and fund studies to further explore the potential benefits of cannabis, and 3) disclose all results of such studies.
