Cannabis, also known as marijuana, is a drug which is found mostly in Central Asia and in the Indian subcontinent. The cannabis plant has been used as a drug for both recreational and hallucinogenic purposes and in traditional medicines for many centuries. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the main component of cannabis, which is one of the many known compounds in the plant. Cannabis is mainly used for smoking, vaporizing, within food, medicinal purposes, or as an extract.
Recreational uses of weed
Cannabis is the most typically used illegal drug in the whole world. Though it is mostly used recreationally or as a medicinal drug, it may also be used for spiritual purposes. It is legal in some countries, with the highest use among adults in Zambia, Nigeria, Canada and the United States. Cannabis has been subjected to legal restrictions since the early 20th century. The cultivation, possession, and use of cannabis is illegal in most countries of the world back then. But Uruguay was the first country to legalize the use of cannabis.
Medical uses of weed
There is limited evidence suggesting that cannabis can be used to improve appetite in people with HIV/AIDS, to reduce nausea and vomiting during chemotherapy, or to treat chronic pain and muscle spasms. Medical use of cannabis, with the approval of a physician, has been legalized in many countries. Medical cannabis, or medical marijuana, can be used to improve symptoms or treat disease; however though, there is no single agreed-upon definition upon this. The scientific study of cannabis as a medicine has been hindered by production restrictions and by the fact that it is still classified as an illegal drug by many governments.
Effects of weed
Cannabis has many physical and mental effects, which include euphoria, no sense of time, altered states of mind, impaired short-term memory, difficulty in concentrating, increase in appetite, odd body movement and relaxation. The effects are observed within a few minutes when smoked, and about half an hour to 1 hour when cooked and eaten. The effects last for a few hours, depending on the amount used. There is a direct relation between the use of cannabis and therefore, the risk of psychosis, although the direction of causality is debated. Physical effects include increased pulse rate, respiratory problems, nausea, and behavioral issues in children whose mothers used cannabis during their pregnancy; short-term side effects also include dry mouth and red eyes. Short-term use will increases the risk of both minor and major adverse effects. Common side effects include vomiting, feeling tired and dizziness. The long-term adverse effects may include cognition problems, risk of addiction, and risk of schizophrenia in young people, the risk of children taking it by accident, decreased mental ability in those who started its regular use as adolescents, chronic coughing, respiratory infections, susceptibility and cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome.
