5 Interesting Halloween Costume Ideas for Cannabis Users

Weed can be used to design some refreshing costumes for Halloween that too on low budget. Mentioned below are ideas for creating some of the most alluring weed costumes using simple items such as foam, green clothes, spray paint and some weed. In the end what matters is how these constituents are put together into a costume. But, you must be careful no one tries to light you up mistaking you for a smoking joint.
Here are 5 interesting Halloween costume ideas for cannabis users:
A Bong King
One of the most popular dresses that you can easily get from eBay or even make yourself is the Bong King. It makes you appear like a cannabis filled cigarette. As already stated, you must be careful if some drunkard mistakes you for a huge smoking joint and lights up your bowl. The best way to keep drunkards away is to put a ‘No Smoking’ tag before stepping inside a Halloween party.
Princess High, the Cannabis Queen

The Princes High is a costume style made popular by pop diva Lady Gaga. The design of the dress is simple – wear green (preferably weed leaves) but wear less. The dress that may barely cover your top is sexy and worth flaunting.
Miss High Times

It’s easy to look good when people around you are high. The inspiration behind the costume is the Ganja Girls. Such girls would flaunt their cleavage and were crowned as the Miss High Times (HT) in the past. Their dresses were complemented with crowns, and so you too can prepare a crown, but one that is made from cannabis leaves. The crown will perfectly complement the dress and also make your head smell of weed.
Pot Activist Look
It is stylish to look like a pot activist. In order to emulate brave weed activists you just require a nicely ironed suit and attractively framed glasses. Also, you must know how to carry yourself in a party. This dress will make you look more sophisticated and graceful. Accessorize your costume with plenty of weed. Get bracelets, necklace and or even a hat made from weed. And remember, you’re only role playing there and there to discuss the legalization or DE-legalization of the weed.
Pot Smoking Hippy
For someone born to be a real time hippy stoner, dressing up as hippy provides them a definite edge over others present in the party. If Bob Marley can look funky and hipster in his hippy look so can you. The best part is the costume requires low investment and a smoking joint will do the rest for you.So, while deciding for a Halloween costume this year, consider these weedy options too. Additionally, you can compliment your costumes with a large sized smoking joint. This will not only enhance your image as a die-hard pot fan, but give the opportunity to look different this Halloween. And, don’t forget to carry plenty of weed to keep up the spirit throughout the party.

Can Medical Marijuana Be an Answer to Glaucoma?

Glaucoma is described as a medical condition of eyes in which optic nerves get damaged over a time period resulting in decline of the eyesight of a person. The prime reason for the disorder is sudden pressure build-up in the eye region.
The only way to treat the disease is to contain the problem of rising pressure within the eyes. This eye pressure is also known as Intraocular Pressure (IOP). As per certain studies conducted in the US, the cases with glaucoma have only increased in the past few years.   
At the moment, the only cure for the ailment is surgery. But, while you can avail marijuana cannabis medicines in Michigan for the treatment of one set of conditions, you may or may not find it so great for the others. Medical cannabis almost certainly is not an answer to everything but it DOES answer a few problems really well.  
Can Marijuana Possibly Cure Glaucoma?
The use of marijuana for glaucoma treatment can be traced back to the 1970s. There are certain reports from the time which suggest that smoking pot can reduce intraocular pressure considerably. A study conducted by National Eye Institute, a division of federal National Institute of Health suggests that THC, an active compound in marijuana can successfully bring about a reduction in pressure levels.
When medical cannabis is consumed in edible form, smoked or injected, IOP levels do come down to some degree. The time period is in the range of about 3 to 4 hours.
Medical-marijuana, therefore, mighty) offer a working solution to the problem of glaucoma!
Alternative Treatment?
Considering the fact marijuana provides relief against glaucoma for some period (3 to 4 hours), it can indeed be an effective solution. But, pot needs to be smoked at least for 7 to 8 times in a day in order to maintain its effect for a longer time.
Increased intake of marijuana, however, may cause frequent mood swings. A patient may end up being sluggish all day long or weaken his cognitive skills. In other words, in order to keep IOP levels low for a longer duration of time, you may have to sacrifice your health. In addition, excessive marijuana consumption may cause adverse effects on the lungs.
What does the future hold?
In the past few years, certain studies on glaucoma disorder treatment using marijuana were conducted in different parts of the world which stress upon the use of medicinal marijuana pills. The prospect of use of eye drops containing THC is also being investigated in labs across the world. We all look forward to the day when marijuana cannabis medicines inMichigan prove really helpful in treating disorders like glaucoma.
As the number of people reportedly affected by the condition is on rise, chances are that researchers as well as pharmaceutical companies would spend more time, money and resources on devising effective treatments that do not necessarily involve surgery. Medical marijuana, hopefully, in combination with other treatments, might offer a better solution to the eye disorder.
