The charity “Medical cannabis Declaration (MCD)” released today the first lecture in a new series on the topic “Medically active components of cannabis”. The course is part of its global information campaign “Yes to Cannabis as Medicine”. The lecture is available in English, French, Spanish, German, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Mandarin, Japanese and Portuguese.
The lecture covers pharmaceutically-active substances THC, CBD and other cannabinoids, as well as essentialoils (terpene) and their unique effects. The course is supported by a video of international experts explaining the effects of cannabis on the human body’s endocannabinoid system, which will be covered by the next lecture.
This lectures were made possible by donations to the ongoing crowdfunding campaign at Indiegogo, running until 18 June 2016. Please support the campaign at

Cannabis is used successfully as treatment of severe illnesses such as multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, chronic pain, severe depression, posttraumatic stress disorder or chronic inflammatory diseases, along with side effects for other treatments, such as lack of appetite and nausea caused by cancer treatment.
On 19 April 2016, MCD started a two-month campaign at the well-known crowdfunding platform Indiegogo to raise money for dissemination projects on medical cannabis, including background information on cannabis, videos and lectures in the ten most spoken languages worldwide as part of its ongoing awareness campaign. MCD aims to prpair scientifically sound information in a comprehensive, yet easily understandable, way and makes it available to the public. After only one week, 5% of the target amount of 85,000 $ has already been raised.
The global awareness campaign is crucial, as only 10 out of 200 countries in the world grand their citizens access to cannabis for medical use. Another 20 countries established regulations that make cannabis as medicine accessible only in a few special cases, while in more than 150 countries legal access to this treatment remains unavailable.
More and more supporters say “Yes to cannabis as medicine” and donate.
