Just as in the distant past, cannabis is still used today for its significant medicinal effects. In recent years, numerous scientific studies have been conducted worldwide, confirming the efficacy of cannabis in medicine. The history of cannabis goes hand in hand with the history of settlement and the development of human society.

Thanks to the plant's resilience and adaptability, its use gradually spread across all continents. Our ancestors used cannabis to produce paper, clothing, oils, impregnating agents, and dyes. Surprisingly, in the past, they also focused on recycling. Old ship sails and clothes were further recycled into paper. Interestingly, in 1640, the governor of Connecticut ordered that all landowners must cultivate the plant. Among the largest cannabis cultivators on the American continent were, among many others, US presidents George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

The decline of cannabis is primarily foreshadowed by the following events: in the 19th century, the improvement of cotton processing technology, the abolition of slavery, and thus cheap labor for hard work in the hemp industry, and the discovery of synthetic fibers in the 20th century. Currently, especially in Europe and North America, there is a noticeable shift towards the use of cannabis, mainly due to its versatility and low environmental impact. Global academic circles are paying great attention to the use of the medicinal properties of cannabis in everyday life.

It has significant anti-inflammatory, healing, antibacterial, and antiviral effects. This herb effectively helps not only in serious illnesses but also, when applied topically in the form of a tincture or ointment, it brings relief and rapid healing even for common health problems. It is particularly effective in treating so-called civilization diseases and age-related illnesses.

Hemp seeds and oil are one of the best sources of essential fatty acids. In addition to the rare gamma-linolenic acid, they contain omega 6 and omega 3 in a perfect 3:1 ratio (human skin contains them in a 4:1 ratio). It contains all eight essential amino acids. They are called essential because the human body cannot produce them on its own, and we must obtain them through food or absorption. One handful of hemp seeds covers the daily protein and fatty acid needs of an adult.
