「藥用大麻合法化,是最基本的醫療人權。」 ——大麻律師/李菁琪 「大麻在臺灣被列為二級毒品,但在泰國、加拿大及美國過半數的州, 都已作為治療多種疾病的選項之一。」 ——歹夫好可央 Dr. KIANG/賴彥合醫師 大麻,其實是純天然草藥,西元前2700年起,就一直用於治療各種疾病, 古代蘇美人用它來緩和分娩時的疼痛; 印度人把大麻視為擺脫焦慮的五種神聖植物之一; 現代西藥之父威廉.奧斯勒,更用大麻來治療偏頭痛。 使用了幾千年的大麻,為何在20世紀變成了毒品,不斷被汙名化? 主要原因是「大麻含有致幻成分」──讓人「嗨」、意識模糊鬆弛歡愉。 本書作者達妮.戈登,是大麻素醫學領域的專家, 曾用醫療大麻治癒了數千名患者,更在英國培訓了第一批大麻醫學醫生。 她發現,大麻中的CBD(大麻二酚),具有強力的抗發炎與減壓效果, 有效治療慢性疼痛、女性疾病、抗焦慮與憂鬱……是最佳的天然藥材! ◎ 大麻到底是什麼,安全嗎? 大麻有超過100種以上的大麻素,其中最有名的是CBD與THC, CBD能舒緩焦慮、改善睡眠與免疫系統,療效已被世界衛生組織證實; THC雖具精神活性(被列為管制藥物的原因之一),但也能緩解慢性疼痛。 最重要的是,CBD根本無須戒斷,也完全不會上癮。 ◎ 明明是天然藥材,怎麼轉瞬間成了「入門毒品」? 因為可以製衣的大麻纖維,威脅到木材與棉花業者,惹得某些產業不開心, 再來是種族歧視:很多非裔美國人和墨西哥人重度使用,所以有治安疑慮, 從此,再也沒人理會CBD(不會讓你嗨)和THC(會讓你嗨)有何差異。 ◎ 醫生一籌莫展的問題,這些人卻靠大麻重拾生機: .加拿大農夫把大麻葉子和菠菜一起榨成「超級綠汁」,好多人活到90幾歲。 .有效治療帕金森氏症── CBD油效果最好、大麻花蒸氣則最快緩和顫抖。 .塗抹CBD外用軟膏,可治療關節炎、神經疼痛。 .「穿皮貼片」可治療憂鬱、焦慮、PTSD(創傷後壓力症候群),效果最持久。 .女性朋友的福音,CBD棉條、塞劑,可解決經痛與經前症候群。 .還有大麻潤滑劑,能代替威而鋼、增加性愛愉悅感。 本書是全球第一本大麻CBD聖經, 幫助我們解開「大麻健康革命」的所有混亂矛盾與迷思。 名人推薦 綠黨副秘書長、大麻律師/李菁琪 歹夫好可央 Dr. KIANG/賴彥合
