Clinical Endocannabinoid Deficiency Reconsidered: Current Research Supports the Theory in Migraine, Fibromyalgia, Irritable Bowel, and Other Treatment-Resistant Syndromes.

Abstract
Medicine continues to struggle in its approaches to numerous common subjective pain syndromes that lack objective signs and remain treatment resistant. Foremost among these are migraine, fibromyalgia, and irritable bowel syndrome, disorders that may overlap in their affected populations and whose sufferers have all endured the stigma of a psychosomatic label, as well as the failure of endless pharmacotherapeutic interventions with substandard benefit. The commonality in symptomatology in these conditions displaying hyperalgesia and central sensitization with possible common underlying pathophysiology suggests that a clinical endocannabinoid deficiency might characterize their origin. Its base hypothesis is that all humans have an underlying endocannabinoid tone that is a reflection of levels of the endocannabinoids, anandamide (arachidonylethanolamide), and 2-arachidonoylglycerol, their production, metabolism, and the relative abundance and state of cannabinoid receptors. Its theory is that in certain conditions, whether congenital or acquired, endocannabinoid tone becomes deficient and productive of pathophysiological syndromes.
When first proposed in 2001 and subsequently, this theory was based on genetic overlap and comorbidity, patterns of symptomatology that could be mediated by the endocannabinoid system (ECS), and the fact that exogenous cannabinoid treatment frequently provided symptomatic benefit. However, objective proof and formal clinical trial data were lacking. Currently, however, statistically significant differences in cerebrospinal fluid anandamide levels have been documented in migraineurs, and advanced imaging studies have demonstrated ECS hypofunction in post-traumatic stress disorder. Additional studies have provided a firmer foundation for the theory, while clinical data have also produced evidence for decreased pain, improved sleep, and other benefits to cannabinoid treatment and adjunctive lifestyle approaches affecting the ECS.

It drives me crazy that alcohol is fine, but pot is illegal. Moronic situation. Someone very close to me died from her daily bourbon and Cokes, for many years. Before she died, our family suffered from her alcoholism for a long time. When people speak up against pot and don't personally know about it, I know that they are deeply ignorant.
Weed do not get people high anymore!!!!
make this a state issue not a national issue. each states should have the right to vote and decide.
weed all of the way!
Legalize!
DECRIMINALIZE!!
The reporter think the change has been quick–cannabis activism has been going on for 50 years at least.
THATS A FAKE POLL……… JUST FREAKING LEGALIZE IT THEN TAX UT. THEN EVERYONE IS HAPPY. PROBLEM SOLVED….
WOW, FAR OUT. WEEEEEED.
i guarantee the 36% who dont want it legal are the same 36% who are blind followers of trump,
Im in favor of continuing to criminalise it. There is a link between the increase of marijuana usage, general dumbing down of society, and the rampant increase in mental illness in the general population. You can find evidence of this all around you , especially on youtube. Bizarre conspiracy theories, all kinds of paranoid delusions that drive people. Living in an information age, it is ironic that we are surrounded by insanity. My theory as to the general societal trend is substance abuse. I think we have a generation of human garbage on all kinds of substances leading to all kinds of insanity. All of those mass shootings that you wonder what was driving them? Its all paranoia and victim-hood complexes. And I am POSITIVE it is driven by substance abuse. Not everybody is a mass shooter, but its the most obvious symptom.
Happy 420!
The criminalization of marijuana was an attempt to monopolize the paper industry rooted in racism
End prohibition now~!
it's a known carcinogen.
the infrastructure for regulation is already in place, just include marijuana everywhere you real alcohol in your local municipalities. treat it just like alcohol, nobody under 18 for recreational use, tax it, collect the revenues and use it for education and school infrastructure updates. the 100's of millions collected here in Colorado should have gone to the schools but instead it went into bureaucrat pockets. beware greedy politicians
Legalize weed. It makes the world a better place to live.
I don't smoke it, but I agree it should be completely legalized for those who do.
People who want 2 complain about psychotropics and the opioid crisis need 2 take a good, hard look at cannabis.
remove it from schedule 1 right now, remove it from the DOT banned list. i am a truck driver, i have no intention of consuming while on duty. but smoking a little off duty at home would be nice and go back to work sober. if i value my job (i do) i cannot smoke it at all, i used to. the government wants me to drink instead, i refuse i hate drinking and drunks.
I will NEVER happen
https://youtu.be/B1i3zRIrfvU
I would say we're closer to 70 percent who want it legalized.
i think if they r gonna control it then it all needs to be of standard grade or better. all this rec weed going around full of pes, not flushed good junk that taste like junk needs to be banned. You shouldnt be able to sell that stuff its full of junk and not good to smoke. They need to do away with the idea of rec. vs medical. And it all just needs to be regulated like medical for they sake of public health to be best it can for smoking cause its not good to smoke as is so no need for the extra chemicals and bunk tastes and effect. asfour all that crappy recreational marijuana needs to be thrown in the fire or the people who grow it should sit down and smoke it themselves for a month and see how they feel. only quality should be available and allowed to grow it. cuz nobody knows and what states that are thinking a little ahead worry about is the effect to the public health and how they're going to end up paying for it if people end up in the hospital with cancer treatments 20 years from now from this decision that's what they need to be thinking about is how many millions in healthcare they'll be spending extra and how this can have a ripple effect across the board on health
Hophead losers!
Legalize!
Should have never been illegal in the first place.
legalize to the point i can grow it in my front yard!
She would have a nose ring…
if they do legalize it, one thing is for sure it will make the economy better and they'll have to build lots of prisons for sure, and you can bet your life on that.
Legalize it already!!
