YOUNG ADULTS- see CHILDREN/YOUNG ADULTS

 

And there it is, kids! 150+ pages of medical cannabis studies for you to share with friends, relatives, politicians and doctors! It will be a few days until this list is available at the email in my sig. I am going to be busy posting it up all over, but if you want a copy, it's your's FREE!

 

Unprofessional? I guess you'd better take that up with Unbound Medicine, IACM, PubMed, MedScape and the various other professional medical journals that published the studies, as well as the PHDs and various doctors who did the work and wrote the studies up!

And bland? That literally depends on what ails you! When you are searching for factual information that your life (or its quality) depends on, that information is never "bland". The content, not the presentation, is what is vital.

The information I have collected was not meant to entertain you. It was written to educate, not amuse. If you want amusement, go play in another section of GC, or go watch TV at your grandma's house, again. The folks in the "Medical" dection are often dealing with life and death issues, so we aren't searching for amusement, what we need is cutting-edge medical information.

I do include some news articles in my list since some people do not wish to wade through the scientific jargon and want only the basic facts presented in a "less bland", more sensationalist manner. Perhaps you should stick with them.
