Check out our newest page on the history of medical marijuana.  You will find all kinds of information about the history of medical marijuana and how it got to where it is today. We go from ancient times all the way up and into the legalization sweeping the country as we speak.

We encourage you to check out our Medical Marijuana page for a great resource on the history of cannabis. From the ancient uses by Chinese doctors to the US government requiring farmers to plant hemp crop’s during World War II, there is a wealth of information. We did our best to include plenty of charts and graphs and all kinds of interesting facts and figures.

Do you know where the word cannabis comes from? Have you ever wondered how a plant that has been used for thousands of years as a medicine was stripped from medical textbooks? Or about  how the efforts of a few nefarious and powerful individuals over the course of decades caused a generation to demonize an ancient healing herb? 

The medical marijuana page explains how cannabis came to be in and how it was later removed from the healers lexicon. We talk about many of the figures historically associated with the plant and how perceptions have changed over the millennia. The Medical Marijuana page also talks about how the plant was renamed to try and make it sound scarier and how humanity has started to rediscover the healing properties of cannabis.

From the studies of Isreali Professor Raphael Mechoulam to statistics from the US Department of Corrections, we scoured the planet to find the most relevant and engaging content to present to the community. There is so much information out there that it would be impossible for us to include everything so we did our best to include the most comprehensive elements. Regardless. we are constantly improving the quality and quantity of content we present to our community and love how well it has been received so far.

As one of our primary informational pages, we hope everyone will find the information presented as amazing as we do. In our continuing effort to offer relevant and engaging content, we will occasionally tell you about new informational pages we develop and ask what you think. Good, bad or otherwise, we want our resources to exceed expectations and provide strong support for our community. Thanks for reading.
