  1. In the 1900's, a french graduate student,faced 10 professors for his oral final exam.He had 1 yr. to do this.After much research he was ready.On the exam,at the end,he was asked which plant,had no medicinal value.He said none.

  2. The title of this video is misleading!
    People need to stop using videos like this for confirmation bias of their favorite plant/natural supplement. This isn’t new activity like the title makes it seem. Pharma has been heavily scouring plants for medicinal active ingredients for DECADES. So for them to report on this now is stupid and gives false implications that pharma is only starting to do this now. Billions of dollars go towards searching in exotic places for plants and all the compounds found go into a database. What the compounds can be used for is yet to be determined because there’s so many found.

    To all the CBD enthusiasts out there. CBD is psychoactive, meaning it can disrupt a balancing act in your body at unregulated doses. Sometimes potentially irreversible like the way the body regulates testosterone when using too many steroids. I don’t think it should be used recreationally, only medicinally at studied doses.

    Coincidence or not, most of my friends I know who are enthusiastic about CBD are really mentally slow. I can’t be 100% certain, but I can only suspect it’s caused by CBD overuse.

  3. 80% of the "weeds" in my yard are edible and medicinal … so I landscaped an area that looks visually appealing and let them grow. Now I'm learning the details about everything that nature provides for my health.

    Marijauana inspired me to learn more about plants. The immediate effect shows the power of plants.

    I quit smoking pot 9 years ago, because the stonger strains didn't agree with me….but it got me thinking, if a minute amount of pot can be felt immediately in the brain, what about plants that don't give us a buzz, but have powerful effects on our internal organs?

  4. Synthetic drugs create synthetic body for humans to be called humanoids, not 100 percent humankind. Some synthetic drugs cost more than a new highend SUV.

  5. This is how the world made medicine from the start. Greed is the cause of all side effects. None with the natural plants, just the synthesized version.

  6. Some natural remedies have worked for me, some haven't. CBD stopped my panic attacks, but it didn't help my other anxiety symptoms or my depression. I tried a natural supplement that was supposed to help with ADHD, but I didn't notice a difference. I used various essential oils to try to help my rosacea, but none of them seemed to have an effect. I definitely think natural medicine should be the first thing to try, and then you can try artificial means if those don't work.

  7. The white man’s version of medicine is petroleum based which creates cancers.. The Rockefellers knew that that’s why they created the cancer society I’ll just stop right there I forgot I’m speaking to people who rushed out and got toilet paper for the coronavirus then want to be the first ones vaccinated🤣

  8. LMAO 😀 What Is This World !!! NOW People Want To Hear About The Power Of Nature GOOD LORD . Could've Done That 1000's of Years Ago . . . 100's Years Ago No One Had A Problem When Rockefellers & Rothschild Empowered Oil & Medicine Funding Big Hospitals To What They Are Today . . . . Instead heres a quick vid to show we couldve focused on plants but rather we want to test chemicals instead . . . . " Because If You Can Grow Your Own Medicine They Would Never Have The Control That They Do " OPEN YOUR EYES

  9. The signs are all around us, globally. The rapture and when Jesus returns to earth will be a global event. But no one knows the day or time. Jesus Christ- Saviour of the world. Compassion for the lost, Love that sent Him to the cross. Today is the day of
    Salvation, accept and follow Jesus. ❤️🙏
    Don't gamble with our souls/enternity. What if at the end of our lives we find out Jesus really is who He claims to be ( the highest claim, a claim like no other claim). Then what? Then it's too late 🙁 ❤️ 🙏

  10. Indigenous peoples still have this knowledge. Instead of let's say pandering to big pharma, we spend some money recording that knowledge before it is lost forever.

  11. Doctors about killed me with opoid painkillers over a 10 year period. Been using small amounts of Kratom for over 3 years now. No side effects and no withdrawal from opoids yet the FDA wants to ban it. Pharmaceutical companies can't pay patent a naturally occuring substance. No money can be made.

  12. "Be Still "
    by Gooden and Cohen

    I've come a long way still have a longer way to go it's been a Lonely Road but I know I'm not alone sometimes the going has gotten tough and I was down could not get it up but when my Sin I had enough Jesus took me by the hand

    Be still and know that I am God
    With me there's  nothing that's too hard
    I'll get you  through

    I've left it all behind
    To find the one above
    I had to die inside
    To Forgive and learn to love

    I've found that letting go
    Turns faith into a rope and so now I'm holding on to the only one who gives me hope.

    Be still and know that I am God
    With me there's  nothing that's too hard
    I'll get you  through it!
