Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory Forums

There has been a noticeable increase in people, new registrations particularly, looking for hookups or sources of things on here of late, some better disguised than others, which may have a little to do with the Silk Road comment etc?

As for oil curing cancer, while there is some evidence that it may be of some benefit in some cases, it also has to be accepted I think that much of it is wishful thinking from desperate people and relies on terribly selective evidence. There is similar evidence in the power of faith healing (which I believe to be complete rubbish I should add, positive thinking aside) and various other things.

One thing I am quite sure of however, there is no conspiracy between governments and the pharma industry to withhold a cancer cure with scientifically established efficacy where all other treatments fail. Resistance to a form of treatment that should sit among other options due to preconceived notions of harm and illegality sure, but deliberate and conscious denial of an actual miracle cure? Bullshit, and no amount of selective linking from biased sources demonstrates otherwise. Thousands upon thousands of doctors and researchers struggle worldwide every day to treat and try to cure cancer, if they had a magic bullet available with actual, rigorously collected evidence that it worked, everyone would know about it and use it.

Of course, when established medical treatments, with decades of properly conducted research behind them fail, there is nothing to be lost really in turning to alternatives and nobody should blame anyone for holding out hope there, but an element of realism and logic does need to be applied ahead of making extravagant claims which could actually damage the mmj movement in the long term.

Anyway, the OP's question was answered above; you'll really struggle in Amsterdam and really need to either find a private individual or move to the US. Best of luck.

According to my research, which was quite extensive due to the fact that I was trying to help my mother who died from cancer.
The advantages of cannabis and it's extracts to cancer patients, especially patients in the latter stages of the disease, is that it relieves the symptoms of the horrible drugs used to treat cancer and the pain it causes.
So yes, I am 100% in favor of cancer patients being provided cannabis to relieve the symptoms and provide a better quality of life.
But I wouldn't be too optimistic about cannabis actually curing the disease, again, especially for patients in the latter stages (stage 4).
So I hope you find what you're looking for for your friend, even if it just helps him deal with the symptoms, and doesn't cure him.
Good Luck!

While we cant prove that anybody has been cured by cannabis alone, it's also nearly impossible to prove that somebody didn't get cancer in the first place because of cannabis. I assume you guys know how much money is spent on those cancer "treatments" - I dont expect those who make money with chemo would tell us nothing but the truth. Govs. usually shouldnt give a damn about legal weed since it brings in tax money, but there must be some benefit that they try to cover up.

p.s. one round of chemo is about $10.000 so you're looking at a total somewhere in the 100 thousands over a year. pharma industries make billions with it. so no reason for them to skip to other methods (unless they bring more money).

Mullaways the man.

Hey Pinkie are you Aussie.

If you already have CBD oil just mix it with THC oil you can make yourself. Equal parts should make close to 1:1.

The company that trademarks a cure for cancer will make trillions, especially given we're not talking about a preventative measure. The argument that they could fully suppress an empirically demonstratable cure for cancer is ridiculous and completely fails to account for any medical advances in treating or curing any disease in existence ever, and also assumes every cancer researcher and doctor is complicit in deliberate denial of a more effective treatment to their patients. Hogwash.

Just because the pharma industry is profit motivated and dominated does not mean cannabis actually cures cancer if only they'd let it. Can help people, absolutely, should not be denied just because of prohibition, most certainly, but is involved in what would amount to a global conspiracy to prevent people receiving a miracle cure? Come on.

Hi,

Not an aussie! Thanks for the info but I don't have THC oil!

I do wholeheartedly believe that pharma corps don't act in public interest. Why do we want manufactured medicine when we have natural stuff that cures a vast array of ailments?

To use just 3 examples, penicillin and the smallpox and measles vaccines have saved possibly up to 500,000,000 lives globally. That's why we want manufactured medicine some of the time.

Ok lets wash the hog... I didn't say cannabis was the cure, but even if it was, we probably wouldn't hear too much about it. Your logic is like saying: the company that trademarks a car motor without combustion will make trillions - not going to happen. Not all medicine is bad of course, but they hardly go for the root of the problems. Vaccines are a totally different subject which is discussible as well, doesn't really fit with a coffeeshop forum though.

hey pinkie maybe they can help you http://www.apollyon.nl/medical-cannabis ... anguage=en

Nice find...now that this is over,celebrate with a spoon hit

Thanks guys.

I spoke to an expert in the field yesterday, who legally supplies very sick children with cancer free of charge. He told me that if my friend was already on morphine, it is too late to help him with oil treatment. He said the oil will only be able to get him off morphine (not a bad thing!) So at the very least he can die in dignity without being drugged up to the eyeballs for pain relief.

Although after 2 days on the cbd only oil he was out of bed, washed himself and walked down the stairs and chatted to a mate of his and saw him to the door. He hasn't been out of bed in 2 weeks at all. So even if there is some short term benefit, it would be good.

So thank you for all your supportive comments, consider the thread closed.

unfortunately, theres no 1 size fits all cure for cancer.

im sorry to hear that pinkie i wish you and your mate the best of luck

what can I say..........thanks!

we remain hopeful, his wife has decided to make some herself. at least we can say we did our best!

its not hard to make.

just takes a bit of time.
