Dating back to 3000 B.C., cannabis has been used as a relaxant and pain reliever, both for recreational and medicinal purposes. In this book you will learn everything you need to know about cannabis. A lot of people mistake Cannabis or marijuana for being just a recreational drug and nothing more. This cannot be further from the truth. While the leaves and flowers of the hemp plant are indeed used to produce pot, these and its other parts — the stems, roots, and seeds — are also made into hemp fiber, rope, paper, building materials and textiles.

Another byproduct of the plant is hemp oil, which can be consumed as food, used as fuel, or made into an ingredient in lotions, cosmetics, and other body care products. Lastly, and of perhaps the greatest value, the hemp plant serves medicinal purposes.
