    Yep, that was a while ago.

    Now the're using 5 to 50 milliwatt solid state lasers, 650 to 850 nm wavelength range, with diffusers, and even LED patches coupled with photo-dynamic-therapy. With all the retired baby boomers and echo of boomers nearing retirement, the demand for care and treatment will increase. LLLT is on the rise as a means of non intrusive treatment with little or no side effects such as some drugs like THC (but without the buzz, or the dry mouth and munchies).

    Nope,

    With those power levels and a good diffuser, we can offer flash service. Imagine a really quick body scan for those MacDonald's generation people who need instant gratification, and can't wait the extra nanoseconds. Do you want fries with that ?

    I have a tendency to call shenanigans on this video...

    My grandma has lung cancer, my grandpa died from cancer, my uncle died from testicular cancer, chances are I will probably die of cancer some day.

    My first problem with this video, is that they are saying this 'cure' is being withheld from the public. The rationale for this is (and I quote) "Hemp is a plant, therefore it cant be patented," meaning pharmaceutical companies cant make money on it.

    That is completely bogus. Yes, one cant patent the plant itself but unless the pharmaceutical companies plan to just chop up the plant and toss it in an Rx bottle, they have nothing to worry about. Any and all derivatives or formulas comprised of one or more chemicals from that plant CAN be patented.

    That's like saying that pharmacy companies cant make money on painkillers because the poppy is a plant. Almost every single opiate painkiller on the market comes from that plant.


    Secondly,
    "this resin, when processed correctly, is basically a cure for any disease known to man"

    ...Snake oil? I'm just going to leave that one right there.

    Just the claims made in that video are pretty ridiculous. It seems more like addicts rationalizing their drug use, to me. Don't get me wrong, I AM a recovering addict, so I know how that goes. Also, I really do believe that marijuana can help with pain associated with MANY diseases, and I'm no medical expert, but for them to say it CURES those diseases sounds pretty ridiculous.

    I agree that they have a "snake oil" approach to their claims of a "Cure All" benefit to using THC oil and derivatives.
    They don't talk about any scientific, double blind/placebo test results either. So I take it with a grain of salt and do have faith in the pain management claims.

    Take Care
