Pharmaceutical Industry Synthesizing Marijuana To Patent It… And It’s Already Killing People

Why would we turn to Big Pharma to synthesize what Nature already got right? Millions of people are successfully using medical marijuana to treat an array of disorders and diseases. We do not need huge corporations to fix what is not in fact broken.

A marijuana plant stands during a press presentation of a legal medicinal marijuana harvest in the La Florida municipality of Santiago, Chile, Tuesday, April 7, 2015. Planting, selling and transporting marijuana is usually illegal in Chile and carries prison terms of up to 15 years. But the law allows medical use of marijuana with the authorization of several ministries.


Many have speculated whether or not the pharmaceutical industry has something to do with the continued prohibition on marijuana. It’s easy to see where these suspicions are coming from, considering the fact that marijuana has been proven as an effective treatment for so many maladies that “Big Pharma” treats with synthetic medicines.

Matt Agorist, with The Free Thought Project, notes that “there are over 20,000 articles searchable on PubMed detailing the effects of “cannabinoid”(s). New research has shown that cannabis is an effective treatment for a myriad of ailments ranging from cancer, to epilepsy, to PTSD.

Now, the pharmaceutical industry seems to realize the inevitability of legal marijuana – across the nation – so they are doing something about it: they are trying to patent it.

Since it is impossible to patent the plant itself, Big Pharma is turning to its scientists to synthesize and patent the active chemicals in marijuana – so they can monopolize the market for these chemicals.

The drug Marinol, produced by Solvay Pharmaceuticals Inc. “contains a nearly identical molecular structure as the THC molecule and has similar effects of marijuana on cancer patients in regards to increasing appetite, etc.,” Agorist writes. “But unlike its natural counterpart, Marinol does not grow on trees.”

The results of this synthesizing has been numerous deaths, accordin.... They report that in a test by the corporation Biotrial, conducted for the Portuguese pharmaceutical company Bial, there have been six people hospitalized in Rennes.

Recently, one of those victims of these unnecessary tests has died. The tests are unnecessary, because Nature has already given us the cannabis plant itself to properly deliver these active chemicals. We do not need the pharmaceutical industry to isolate and encapsulate them for us.

Marisol Touraine, France’s Minister of Health made it clear that no natural marijuana was used in these studies at all. Only the synthetic ECS stimulant was used.

Agorist notes that “Taken orally, the drug was undergoing a Phase 1 clinical trial at a licensed private European laboratory that specializes in clinical trials, the French health ministry said… Attempting to recreate the natural analgesic effects of cannabis, this pharmaceutical company unwittingly killed someone and gravely injured several others.”

This is how it works - whence it be all fucked up then it be good for you... NO.

Let be say that every pot grower I have ever met is my hero, not the brain dead the 'fight for my freedom', such bull, such diluted thinking. What is good for me/us is bad for 'them'. What is good for 'them' is bad for me/us. How is it 'THEY' are in charge? By the way, that bud look weak, skinny, if you will.

It's all about the money.

It doesn't surprise me that so many states like my own(Virginia), still demonize marijuana and are not  even close to decriminalization yet they provide health care to thousands of people through which many drugs are prescribed with side effects such stroke and death. Mary Jane has never caused either and never will.

The pharmaceutical industry, the AMA, and medical-care socialists, have powerful lobbies and use many scare tactics to convince elected officials(criminals) to keep marijuana on the no-no list because it would cause billions in losses to the drug manufacturers, doctors, and federal subsidies for medical care to states.

I never use marijuana, but if I was an epileptic, I would certainly consider it because it does prevent seizures and has been proven to do so with many seizure sufferers including young children. The thing is, is that apparently they can separate the TH and the Cb's so that the high can be eliminated for the most part.

Lastly, I just can't see destroying entire families by putting growers and smugglers into prison, let alone those caught with just a few pounds or ounces.
