Cannabinoids, like those found in marijuana, occur naturally in human breast milk. (NaturalNews) Woven into the fabric of the human body is an intricate system of proteins known as cannabinoid receptors that are specifically designed to process cannabinoids such as tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), one of the primary active components of marijuana. And it turns out, based on the findings of several major scientific studies, that human breast milk naturally contains many of the same cannabinoids found in marijuana, which are actually extremely vital for proper human development.
Cell membranes in the body are naturally equipped with these cannabinoid receptors which, when activated by cannabinoids and various other nutritive substances, protect cells against viruses, harmful bacteria, cancer, and other malignancies. And human breast milk is an abundant source of endocannabinoids, a specific type of neuromodulatory lipid that basically teaches a newborn child how to eat by stimulating the suckling process.

U.S. Attorney Melinda Haag has threatened to seize the Oakland property where Harborside Health Center has operated since 2006, as well as its sister shop in San Jose, executive director and co-founder Steve DeAngelo said Wednesday. His employees found court papers announcing asset forfeiture proceedings against Harborside's landlords taped to the doors at the two locations on Tuesday. Although medical marijuana is legal in California, a federal court complaint that Haag's office filed Sunday says the dispensaries are violating federal law by selling marijuana. Take a look at other local pot shops who have been forced to close since the crackdown began: Loading Slideshow Hide Thumbnails.
When Will President Obama Have His Marijuana Moment? President Obama needs to follow up words with actions if he ever wants the support of the marijuana movement.
Marc Ambinder writing for GQ has what they’re calling an “exclusive”; quoting Obama aides and associates as saying that if President Obama wins reelection, he’ll pivot his focus to the catastrophic failure of the War on Drugs. Of course, by the end of the piece Ambinder says the marijuana legalization community should not expect the President to come out in favor of legalization before November. I disagree, and this is why. If you’ve been watching the Obama reelection campaign shape up over the last few months, you would see them trying to solidify their base, in order to get them motivated to get out and vote in November. FYI: Could Drugs Like "Bath Salts" Be Causing An Outbreak of Cannibalism? Does the drug commonly known as "bath salts" make you particularly crave the taste of human flesh? There's no scientific evidence that it does. But it certainly could lead to a bit of cannibalism as a side effect.
Bath salts, the nickname for a relatively new type of designer drug that's been cited as the cause for recent violent attacks -- not to be confused with actual salts you put in your bath -- does cause hallucinations for some people, along with a laundry list of other psychological effects. Methylenedioxypyrovalerone (MDPV), loosely agreed upon as the active ingredient in many bath salts, is under an emergency DEA federal ban, along with other, similar drugs in the cathinone family. It works like a stimulant, increasing activity in the nervous system in the same way as cocaine or Ritalin.
Zombie Apocalypse: Upstate Woman Tries To Eat Cop; Bath Salts NOT Suspected (Just Kidding) It's official: snorting bath salts makes you want to eat people.
Full disclosure: we've never done it. But there's a reason -- snorting bath salts apparently makes you want to fucking eat people! Miami face chewing attack: Witness describes naked man who attacked, chewed man's face. A witness says a naked man chewing on the face of another naked man on a downtown highway ramp kept eating and growled at a police officer who tried to make him stop.
Larry Vega told WSVN-TV in Miami that he was riding his bicycle Saturday afternoon off the MacArthur Causeway into downtown Miami when he saw the savage attack on the bridge's off-ramp. The causeway connects downtown Miami with Miami Beach. "The guy was, like, tearing him to pieces with his mouth, so I told him, `Get off! '" Vega said. Pot-infused wine is all the rage in dope-friendly California. Obama betrays the left; cheers continued expansion of drug war, criminalization of plant-based medicine. (NaturalNews) If you happen to need even more evidence that President Obama has gutted his campaign promises and betrayed not only the left but also African Americans who enthusiastically supported his election, he has just gone public with his support for the continued war on drugs.
Keeping marijuana criminalized, it seems -- and keeping more African Americans in prison -- is a top priority for the Obama administration. This means Obama supports the midnight DEA raids on our citizenry; the filling of prisons with small-time pot smokers; the disproportionately punitive sentences handed down to black men and women across America who aren't really criminals at all... they merely suffer from a chemical addiction that would more rightly be considered a medical issue. Nearly every country in Latin America has now openly and publicize recognized that the so-called "war on drugs" is a complete and total failure.
