Indica
 

No, not a stoner. Never have been, but I was watching Real Sports w Bryant Gumbel last week. Apparently about half of the NFL players use indica during the season, right after testing has stopped in order to mitigate the agony being inflicted on their bodies.

To me, Indica sounded perfect for a lot of us here as opposed to sativa which is more of a mind bender. Indica is not really an opiate per se as much as a body buzz/relaxing agent and also helps you to sleep as well as anti-axiety properties.

It sounded perfect for neck and back pain. I may be looking into getting a card and was wondering if anyone had used for back pain.

There are so many fascinating and therapeutic aspects to the Cannabis family. I've never indulged but I am all for its medicinal and safe usage. Some people claim it not only helps with pain, but cures cancer. I wouldn't be surprised! :shedance:

I eat organic hemp seed powder every day -- it's a wonderful superfood! :)
