Well, We all know Alcohol, Tobacco are all addictive substances but has any country banned it? There are countless studies which shows that these Alcohol and tobacco kills but still they are sold, promoted and taxed.
Sugar for example is one of the biggest addictive substances which is exploited by food product manufacturers. Are all these not some sort of recreational elements which we consume? But why single out only one plant.
Anyway, Good documentary, people who does not believe everything marketers and policy makers rub on our faces can watch it. They will appreciate it.
Not for naive viewers.

No doubt about it. It is a factually sound, well-produced documentary that's received an appalling rating by faceless voters, saying nothing to support their rating given.
This documentary can be seen on Amazon Prime right now, and it is pure truth in every sense of the word. It shows the historical uses of Cannabis, it shows how the bodies of mammals have evolved to work in harmony with the active components of Cannabis. It shows how the plant became prohibited (spoiler, racism and Capitalism) and it shows several accounts both medical and anecdotal of people having huge benefits of using CBD oil. Among other things, 3 studies carried out specifically to prove that "Cannabis causes Cancer". All of the studies showed the opposite, Cannabis FIGHTS Cancer, and they were all buried.
If we are allowed to use alcohol and tobacco as recreational drugs, then Cannabis should ABSOLUTELY be allowed at the very least for MEDICINAL use. The only thing stopping this development, is lobbying by Big Pharma and ignorance stemming from propaganda aimed at making Cannabis seem like it is "Satan's Plant".
It is not. It is a plant with considerable medicinal uses, and a far less damaging recreational use than Alcohol or Tobacco could ever hope to be.
Watch. This. Documentary. Learn how Hypocrisy is the name which runs like a red thread throughout the West's history with Cannabis prohibition, which also affected the practical uses of Hemp. Hemp, which could've saved Mankind from our dependance on plastics decades ago.

Is there any medical value in cannabis? Sure, like it is in nearly every other plant to a certain extend, no question.
But this "documentary" is nothing more than a biased work from potheads for potheads to justify their addiction and trying to force otherwise healthy people to adopt their way of thinking to maybe get the legislator drop the persecution of substance abusers.
Hell, I don't even know how someone could one day even come up with the expression of "recreational drugs" ?? Drugs are simply drugs and their purpose is to treat, not to "amuse" or "entertain" you.
If you need mind and/or body altering substances to enjoy your life - be it for escapism or athletic enhancement - then you are simply NOT the kind of person to lecture others on what should be the norm or legal.

I came upon this biography while researching for some writing I plan to do for educational purposes. With God as my witness this biography tells much truth. Suffering from epilepsy with uncontrolled severe seizures thirty plus years I looked for any answer or help with that. After unsuccessfully following advice from health care workers in every field, taking almost every anti seizure medication, and one surgery I was obviously very frustrated with life. Someone may be asking now "how or why did he think marijuana might help?" I never did really. Since I was at a young age I had smoked weed with friends some to have fun, but it was rare for me. The beer and cigarettes were my addiction that I'm so glad I no longer touch either of them. As for addiction, I don't have an addictive personality or I may be addicted to Kool aid! I now know how both beer and cigarettes were only adding to my list of health issues. I met a man in the hemp business with great knowledge of it. Because I listened to him those seizures are almost gone compared to the at least a few a day, and quality of life is WOW amazing! As mentioned in this biography, on days I use any marijuana products anxiety is cut to zero, the headache I usually have feels better, I sleep great that night, and most importantly it is suppressing those horrible seizures. When using it medicinally it is very important to know how. Consistency as well as finding your trigger is most important. It can be a trial and error process so patience can be as important. Not everyone reacts the same to it! The name of this biography is so fitting. As I've been saying lately "God is the only thing bigger than marijuana, because He created it."
