This is one of those posts that leave you with more questions. Weed is still very illegal in Africa regardless of it still being grown. I have always been curious about it's advantages especially medicinal use. But Africa being the continent it is, I bet none of that will come to pass.
Thank you for laying out it's downside though. It is always an advantage to understand the disadvantages of anything :)
what are your questions?
Just overly curious if it's benefits are risk free. If one can be affected by it if they are living with a daily smoker. If so, how?
in small doses anything can be beneficial
Medical marijuana has been legalised here in South Africa, though the law will take about another year to fully come into effect, and it will be heavily regulated, which is a good thing I believe. Hopefully more African countries will allow it in the future, especially for those who suffer from chronic and terminal conditions and with whom the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.
Good news. I didn't know that. This can be a way out for so many africans but embracing it is a different struggle all together. It's best if its heavily regulated.
