Cannabis has been in use for thousands of years throughout different cultures for different disorders – anxiety, insomnia, seizures etc. It was around 8000BC that the hemp plant was used for making textiles, ropes, clothing etc. In the 2700BC, Shen Known considered to be the father of traditional Chinese medicine out of curiosity took 365 different plants to check for their medicinal effect. He chewed each of them and made notes of their effect. The experiment lasted over 365 days with some days taken off to recover from adverse effect associated with some of the plants he took at random. Interestingly, after taking the cannabis plant, he realized the severe pain associated with gout he was suffering from subsided. In 1850, cannabis was part of the United States’ pharmacopeia and was prescribed for health conditions. In 1935, there were about 28 cannabis therapeutic drugs that were available for doctors to prescribe for their patients. This led to a number of research and development programs until it all went horribly wrong in the mid-1970s by the single negative campaign of a man named Harry J. Anslinger. But today, the medicinal value of cannabis is in the front burner, with major campaign to take it off the schedule 1 listing.
