Raw Cannabis for Health: Itʼs with great pleasure we write to introduce to you ʻRaw Cannabis for Healthʼ (Facebook). conferences along with personal stories and experiences that have worked for hundreds, if not thousands of people. ʻRaw Cannabis for Healthʼ is a social media, online group designed to convey and to express the need for the Federal Government to include raw cannabis in their "medical marijuana" proposals, trials and policies. The recent upsurge in social awareness of the immense goodness this plant can bring to peoplesʼ lives has brought together many people from around the country and world who also advocate for the basic human right to use cannabis medicinally and socially. The freedom for raw cannabis to be used as another aspect in our daily lives would ultimately mean equality across the board. This also means that you do not, and would not have to be unwell to receive the benefits of raw cannabis, but that using this as sustenance in our diets would act as another source of great omega oils and proteins, as well as a wide range of goodness that our bodies can receive from the use of raw cannabis. In turn this will also act as a preventative to ill health in the future. Ideally we are advocating for the right to legally grow our own, if we chose to, or exchange cannabis as we do any other medicinal plant or herb, without fear of any legal or social stigma. ʻRaw Cannabis for Healthʼ includes the social (otherwise known as recreational) use of cannabis as it has proven over decades, if not centuries, that it will not result in the awful social problems that come from using other substances such as alcohol and ʻhard drugsʼ. The only personal and social problem about making cannabis use illegal is just that, the legalities, the illegal status of cannabis use prevents people from accessing a pleasurable feeling of ʻhighʼ without the devastating consequences that alcohol and other illicit substances (ice, heroin etc.) do bring into peopleʼs lives and society as a whole. We emphasize that you donʼt have to be ʻstonedʼ nor ʻhighʼ to get a lot of value out of ingesting raw cannabis. This is a topic we will be talking about in the upcoming issues. The group ʻRaw Cannabis for Healthʼ is about sharing ideas, recipes, upcoming workshops and We look forward to sharing much more with you in the coming months through this wonderful publication and in the meantime you can find us at; https:// www.facebook.com/groups/rawcanna/ Warm Regards, Q
