This was 20 June 2014. Unbelievable and scary. GMO cannabis. While acknowledging that smoked marijuana has been anecdotally reported to be useful in certain cases (i.e., in stimulating appetite, particularly in AIDS-related wasting syndrome; in combating chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting, severe pain, and some forms of spasticity), the authoritative Institute of Medicine report on “Marijuana and Medicine” stressed the greater potential of non-smoked, rapid-onset delivery systems for cannabis and urged the field to concentrate on investigating the therapeutic potential of synthetic or pharmaceutically pure cannabinoids, not smoked marijuana.41 As of January 31, 2014, seven NIH institutes are supporting 54 NIH active grants related to the therapeutic uses of cannabis or cannabinoids, (approximately half of them were funded by NIDA), in 9 different disease categories. Many of these studies are using animal models or cell culture systems. The vast majority are examining the medical benefits of individual cannabinoid chemicals derived from or related to those in the marijuana plant, not the plant itself, although a handful of studies use unprocessed plant material. Individual cannabinoid chemicals may be isolated and purified from the marijuana plant or synthesized in the laboratory, or they may be naturally occurring (endogenous) cannabinoids found in the body (i.e., as part of the endocannabinoid signaling system) and modified using other, non-cannabinoid chemicals.
