The French health care system has been dubbed “the best in the world.” David Turecamo finds out why the French can afford to get sick.

Any number of marijuana users, whether medicinal or recreational, will tell you that “Mary J” is great for relaxation. In fact, you would probably receive a list of problems the drug has helped relieve or alleviate all together.

As an arthritis patient looking for alternatives to synthesized medicines, unable to use traditional medications or physically unreceptive to traditional medication, you may be skeptical. You may be disbelieving. You may, in fact, consider marijuana users to be a little lacking in the intelligence quotient, merely trying to make their drug use acceptable.

However, as the title of this article indicates, there is scientifically proven evidence that medicinal marijuana can, indeed, provide relief from arthritic pain.

What is Medicinal Marijuana?

First, it must be noted that there are two major differences between medicinal marijuana and commercial or “street” marijuana.

1.Commercial marijuana can come from any number of cannabis strains. Different strains have varying pain relieving, anti-inflammatory, etc. potencies. The potency of commercial marijuana cant be guaranteed. Medicinal marijuana strains, on the other hand, are chosen for specifically for their potency and effects.

2.Some commercial marijuana has been fertilized with unsafe fertilizers. These fertilizers may contain metal derivatives and other toxic substances or by-products. Medicinal marijuana is fertilized carefully, with the health of the patient in mind, with nontoxic fertilizers.

It is not recommended that one buy commercial marijuana (or marihuana) to replace a prescription for medicinal marijuana.

Proven Benefits of Marijuana for Arthritis Patients

Although the legal aspects in many countries, funding and other issues inhibit the number of studies on the therapeutic aspects of marijuana, there is still a surprising amounts of information available. The facts so far are clear:

-Marijuana has shown to be an anti-inflammatory
-The potential for cannabis use to help inflammation and muscle spasms have been proven for several illnesses
-Marijuana has been used as a pain treatment for hundreds of years, if not thousands (some records date back to B.C.)
-Studies suggest that marijuana may not only help inflammation, but may lower the actual growth of the disease itself

Dr. Tom Mikuriya, a member of Mensa and several well-known organizations studying medicinal marijuana, wrote in 2002:

“Clinical interviews of over 6500 members at cannabis buyers clubs and patients in my office practice lead to this generalization: Many illnesses or conditions present with both inflammation and muscle spasm. Cannabis is both an antispasmodic and anti inflammatory.”

Well known and respected as an authority on the therapeutic uses of marijuana, Dr Mikuriya also states “Chronic inflammatory conditions like arthritis and lumbosacral disease responds well to cannabis compared with other analgesics.”

In 2005, Rheumatology Advance Access online published a study by Dr. Blake et al of the Royal National Hospital for Rheumatic Diseases in Bath. Noted as “the first controlled trial of a CBM [cannabis based medicine] in the symptomatic treatment of RA in humans”, the study was based on several facts:

-Marijuana has historically been used as a pain treatment for rheumatoid arthritis, although its therapeutic potential has never been evaluated in a clinical study.

-THC and CBD, the two main components of marijuana, have been recognized as “key therapeutic constituents that act synergistically together and with other plant constituents.”

-THC has shown pain relieving abilities for both nociceptive and neropathic pain.

-CBD has shown the ability to block the progression of rheumatoid arthritis, while both THC and CBD have anti-inflammatory effects.

“In comparison with placebo, the CBM produced statistically significant improvements in pain on movement, pain at rest, quality of sleep, DAS28 and the SF-MPQ pain at present component. There was no effect on morning stiffness but baseline scores were low. The large majority of adverse effects were mild or moderate, and there were no adverse effect-related withdrawals or serious adverse effects in the active treatment group.”

Due to the surprising responses, the researchers ended the study with a call for more studies. “We believe this to be the first controlled study of a CBM in rheumatoid arthritis, and the results are encouraging. The beneficial effects occurred in the context of a dosing regime restricted to evening dosing in order to minimize any possible intoxication-type reactions. However, 24-h dosing with this CBM (Sativex) using a self-titration regime in the context of multiple sclerosis resulted in only minimal intoxication scores [9]. Larger,
more prolonged studies of CBM in rheumatoid arthritis are indicated.”

In 2006, the Center of Drug Discovery in Boston, Massachusetts published a study entitled The Cannabinergic System as a Target for Anti-inflammatory Therapies. With habitual cannabis use proven to affect the immune system, endocannabinoid research has helped to understand the effects through cell-based or in vivo animal testing.

According to the study, these tests “suggest that regulation of the endocannabinoid circuitry can impact almost every major function associated with the immune system…. the results suggest therapeutic opportunities for a variety of inflammatory diseases such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, atherosclerosis, allergic asthma, and autoimmune diabetes through modulation of the endocannabinoid system.”

Although many a naysayer mentions the potentials for overdose, it must be noted that there has never been one documented case of someone overdosing on marijuana, whether through recreational or medicinal use. As well, many are concerned about cancer-causing agents through inhaling the smoke, but a comprehensive study in 2006 could show no proof of marijuana causing lung cancer.

Finally, remember that medical marijuana should not be smoked. Using it in baking or with a vaporizer will offer the therapeutic benefits needed to alleviate arthritis symptoms.

Who says that adult males do not ever consider being trendy once they hit the beach? Perhaps that’s true during the previously times but nowhere will you find any modern man who does not know how to dress up appropriately when at the beach. Yes, it is true! A lot of women are usually not the only ones that have summer fashion lines and something to look forward to when going to the beach.

You would find a lot of clothing stores carrying apparel for men who need the right board shorts when they go surfing, the latest fisherman’s hat or more commonly known as the floppy or bucket hat, the trendiest spectacles or sunglasses to keep their eyes protected and their fashion senses updated, the most convenient and economical canvas tote bags where they could put in their valuables and other stuff that they need at the beach and finally, the right footwear that will keep their foot safe and at the same time, fashionably looking good.

So as you can see, there are a lot of things that men nowadays are also getting ready for when they go to the beach. Some would even spend hours in the salon to get the perfect summer look and to top it all off, they get extra special pedicure treatment to make their feet and toes lovable when they show it off at the beach. Let me share some common factors that men take into consideration when they shop for the right stuff to bring to the beach.

For the board shorts, they make sure that it is made of high quality threads to avoid any unwanted rips while they hit the waves on their surfboards. They also have to make sure that the board shorts they choose will be able to dry easily. Something light and something that doesn’t absorb too much water will be perfect. It doesn’t necessarily need to have pockets since it won’t be an issue.

Since they will be spending lots of time under the hot sun, they also make sure they provide sunscreen and sunblock lotions with the SPF level for them. The higher SPF level, the more efficient it is in keeping your skin protected from the damaging UV rays. Do not get me wrong with sunblock and sunscreen lotions, alright? I know that it is pretty basic but the reality is that nearly all individuals don’t really know the difference between a sunblock and a sunscreen lotion. A sunblock lotion typically reflects the UV rays to keep it from touching your skin. Sunscreen prevents UV rays from being absorbed through your skin simply by absorbing the UV rays instead.

Whatever the type of vanity items men carry along with them at the beach, rest assured that they know what they are doing and they typically are not just doing it for fashion’s sake but for health reasons as well. I know that it won’t be too good to see a man have so much stuff in his vanity kit but if it would help keep him healthy in a lot of ways, then by all means, please do so.

Though you have been exercising and eating right, your having a tough time seeing any weight loss, maybe your body is afraid that your starving. You may think there is no way one can lose weight by eating every three hours, but there is established science behind the theory.

Imagine that if you do not feed your body accurately and regularly your body could get the feeling your have a restricted food source or in other words that your are going to starve. Your body latches onto the fat rather and stores it for later just in case. Your body burns muscle instead of fat to save calories.

Considering what you weigh now and what your target is you may want to work on a habit of frequent healthy snacking. By eating a few bites every three hours or so you can “trick” your body into believing you live in a time of abundant food and therefore no starvation fat saving strategies are needed.

For some folks eating is an addiction or a substitute for fulfillment in other areas in their lives. Of course you can’t give up eating but learning new eating habits may be helpful for you if you are struggling with weight-loss issues. Since you have to eat to sustain life you must learn how to view food in a way conducive to a trim figure. No matter what anyone says, if you eat less food you will have less calories and thus will lose or maintain your weight. If your like some folks I know you might be happy just to maintain your current weight and not gain more.

Some folks want to go on a “diet” binge and drop weight fast but dieting may actually activate the starvation hoarding response mentioned above. Plus most diets restrict the foods we love and therefore are harder to see through to the end. Then if we can “diet” for six weeks and suffer through we say “thank goodness I’m done with my diet” and promptly eat all the food we have been depriving ourselves of. Instantly erasing all the gains of the past six weeks.

I think a better approach is lifestyle change which is an even scarier term than diet for a lot of folks. Most of us have a hard time changing. But here we are talking of slow progressive changes in what we do and eat.
Take a three step approach of:
1. Changing the things you eat..stop eating junk food at take out restaurants, or, if you must eat there, stick to the sandwich only do not eat fries or drink pop.
A lot of fast food joints are offering salads these days and they are a better choice for your health.

2. Keep healthy snacks of fresh vegetables, fruits and raisins and raw nuts with you and munch a few bites every two to three hours. If you were a caveman foraging in the forest you’d come across food every so often an munch a few handfuls before moving on. Since that is the way your body is programmed it will think that you are in a time of plenty and therefore no fat storage is needed.

3. If you haven’t already done so then make up your mind to exercise at least three times a week. I’m not talking about going to the gym and working to look like a muscle builder, just a move it or lose it attitude of walking or some other low impact exercise to get your heart rate up and you pulse going.

Of course I am in favor of body building exercise regimes but they may not be what your looking for and overall a mindset of “move it to lose it” and sensible eating habits are what really matter to the folks who just want to be fit without going all out. If your like me you will have some difficulty changing but every time you eat a hand full of raw nuts, fruit, or other healthy choice that’s a time you didn’t eat something bad and they add up. When you reach into the fridge and you chose the fresh orange rather than the left over birthday cake you win.

The good news is that your reading this and thus have your health and fitness on the top of our mind. You will think about what your eating and if you continually seek out articles and programs for choice change rather than forgetting about weight loss and and losing belly fat then you will be more inclined to choose that orange. You can get fit, you can lose weight, you are not a tree and you can change.
