Medical conditions and the benefits of cannabis


It Fights Cancer: This is the big one that everybody’s been talking about. Both scientists and the federal government have released a good amount of evidence showing that cannabinoids fight certain types of cancer. It doesn’t get much more substantial than that.

Hemp, one of the plants under the species name Cannabis Sativa, has seeds that make for an excellent source of nutrition. Research shows that hemp seeds contain more than 30 percent of healthy fats. Some of the essential fatty acids found in these seeds are linoleic acid and alpha-linoleic acid, which is considered to be the plant-based omega-3. Using the seeds will also help you to benefit from the gamma-linoleic acid which promotes the growth of cells, muscles and organs while supporting normal body functions.

Other nutrients found in the seeds are calcium, potassium, vitamin E, sulphur, phosphorous, magnesium and zinc.

CBD and Medical Cannabis Research

Cannabidiol (CBD) is one of the many cannabinoid compounds that the cannabis plant produces. CBD exhibits numerous therapeutic properties, but what makes this compound so interesting to doctors and scientists is that it does not provide the psychoactive effect normally associated with cannabis, in simple terms CBD does not get you high.

Cannabis and the Law

Cannabis legislation is being relaxed all over the world – but not in the UK, where the most unlikely of horticulturalists are taking the law into their own hands At Discount Cannabis Seeds we only sell Cannabis Seeds as souvenirs and we do not accept any liability for customers purchasing them for any other purposes.

Is Cannabis legal?

Cannabis, unfortunately does not follow a strict line of being legal or illegal across the globe, and in fact can vary considerably in each country depending on its use and form.
Whilst it is illegal to own or possess the drug in the vast majority of countries around the world, many countries have in fact decriminalised possession in small quantities, with the reasoning that it isn’t being used to sell or supply.
In the UK, it is actually LEGAL to own cannabis seeds, such as the ones available on the Discount Cannabis Seeds website, but it is 100% ILLEGAL to grow or attempt to grow the cannabis plant from these seeds unless you have a licence from the Home Office.
WE STRICTLY ADVISE THAT PURCHASED CANNABIS SEEDS ARE NOT USED TO GROW CANNABIS PLANTS AS THIS PRACTICE IS ILLEGAL WITHOUT A LICENCE.

Is is well known, certain countries permit the possession of cannabis in certain circumstances, such as the Netherlands and Uruguay. More recently, a number of states in the USA have enacted legalisation of the plant.

We deal with the most reputable Seed Banks from around the world, many of which have their own quality control procedures which include testing the germination rates.

Legal Access to Cannabis in the UK

Access to cannabis within the UK is limited to the pharmaceutical cannabis based medicine Sativex.

Sativex® is an oromucosal spray of a formulated extract of the Sativa cannabis plant that contains the principal cannabinoids THC and CBD as well as specific minor cannabinoids and other non-cannabinoid components.

This can only be prescribed to MS sufferers and is at your doctors discretion, so differing postcodes can effect access.

It should also be noted that although the NHS in Wales will subsidise Sativex, the NHS in England will not, so typical treatments can cost up to £500 a month.

All other cannabis use or production in the UK is Illegal.
