Why would a pharmacy want something that cures ever known element?That would put them out of business!
How many drugs have you seen the “cure” anything?Almost none, it is seldom their goal.
Their goal is to sell something that you will have to take for the rest of your life, and will have side effects, that they can sell you something else for the rest of your life, and it has side effects…
I’m still waiting for medical science to admit to the healing properties of the dandelion — and there are many. As it is, Big Pharma and chemical companies (weed control) rake in big bucks and poison the planet while convincing the general public they are providing an essential service.
Pharmacy cos have many “cures” but won’t release them because they’ll lose money. They would rather people die than to save lives! Congress votes in their favor in return for bribe money…..this is the cruel world we live in….greed
In the early ‘70s I remember the popular refrain about why we need to preserve rain forests (usually called “the rain forest”, as though there was only one): suppose we found a plant there that cures cancer? Even as that was being chanted, taxol was isolated from yew bark – 20 years later it was approved for medical use and quickly became a front-line drug for breast cancer and several others. About the same time commercial level synthesis was beginning, but that was not enough to prevent widespread stripping of the bark of yew trees in the rain forests of US Pacific Northwest, and it still threatens the species with extinction. We love it – let’s kill it!
The pharmaceutical companies need to save up money to pay lawsuits for people who abuse their prescriptions or for people who are not supposed to be taking them in the first place. Remember Kids: You are not responsible for your own choices and actions!
The old Apothecary explained to his son. If you wish to succeed as a Apothecary, you must avoid, finding the cure for everything, as that will lead to your downfall and the world’s destruction. Think about it! It is true. His son replied, I still want the cure for me.
A weed is an unwanted plant. No way this could be unwanted. Even if it put the pharmacists out of business, every pharmacist currently has loved who will die without it.

Kind of explains why that general rhinovirus cure discovered in Cambridge University nearly two decades ago never went anywhere, doesn’t it?

If he added it’s also addicting, the clams would roll in.

They didn’t name it. Let me guess, it is likely the cannabis plant seed.

Ain’t that the truth. It’s also why the government really doesn’t want to invest in any longevity projects. People living longer is a problem to them.

Of course. Anything that someone tells you is good for you is bad for you. Everyone knows that. Right?
