Marijuana Syndromes by John Mini


Marijuana Syndromes is all about the way marijuana use interacts with other herbal drugs. The author, and acupuncturist and herbalist, discusses the many unhealthy side effects of marijuana use, along with practical advice for making it less hazardous. For instance, the chapter “Balancing the Effects of Marijuana” discusses proper nutrition and sleep if you’re going to use cannabis, along with proper fluids and exercise. He also recommends having friends that don’t use marijuana, and using reading and study to keep your mind sharp. Later chapters cover the herbs that you prescribe to counter the effects of marijuana use, and also the right foods to eat if you use marijuana. Most of the foods recommended are bitter greens, or root vegetables like carrots.

The overall point of this book is that like any other herb, marijuana can have negative effects if you take too much of it and too frequently. He stresses a balanced approach to marijuana use, taking it only as a supplement to proper exercise, nutrition, and lifestyles.
