MARIJUANA CAN TREAT ASTHMA

Re: Marijuana Can't Cure Asthma -- Counselor

Dear Editor

Mr. Baah Ntiri should do more research. My wife and I both live in 
urban Ottawa, one of the smoggiest cities in the world. We both have 
asthma, and we both use marijuana every single day.

We used to have a lot of asthma attacks, but since quitting 
pharmaceuticals and starting up with a cannabis-only therapeutic 
regimen, we have had no asthma problems. Marijuana isn't just a good 
asthma medication, it is the best one.

I would advise you don't listen to the hype. Marijuana is great 
medicine. My wife and I are living proof. The benefits of marijuana 
use far outweighs any dangers. The dangers are exaggerated and the 
benefits downplayed by a government, medical, and police system that 
benefits from lying about pot.
