Marijuana might prevent stroke

Former Heart Surgeon: "A Bud a Day will Keep the Stroke Away"

Former heart surgeon Dr. Dave Allen advocates eating a bud a day of raw marijuana to prevent stroke for at risk patients.

“Eat a bud a day will keep the stroke away,” Allen said. “No other medicine made by man can help in this manner.”

The proof of its helpful benefits is in a patent assigned to the US Department of Health and Human Services, according to Allen, however the study was done on rats not humans. Allen added the patent shows the rats that ate marijuana decreased the size of their stroke by 50 percent and their brain injury was lessened by as much as 50 percent.

Even though the results are promising the problem lies in that it’s never been tested on people, so Allen doesn’t know what a proper dosage would be. ...the pot would be eaten raw and not smoked or heated.

 


No - Not That much! Just one bud.
