A Treasure of Nature – Finally Discovered
"I believe that cannabinoids are a treasure waiting to be discovered," said the chemist Prof. Dr. Raphael Mechoulam. He is regarded as the discoverer of the main active compounds of cannabis. Over 50 years ago, he identified the most important cannabinoids of the plant and found that the human body even produces cannabinoids of its own. Since then, research has provided ever more evidence of how crucial these substances are for our thinking, feeling and behaviour.
Knowledge That Inspires
The discovery of cannabinoids is considered one of the most significant medical findings of our time. Yet it is surprising that it took so long for science to recognise the true value of the cannabis plant. Hemp has accompanied humanity for thousands of years:
- the oldest finds of hemp in Germany date back to 5,500 BC
- first written mention of medicinal use: 2,700 BC in China
- indispensable for seafaring, printing and textile manufacture
- still used in a wide variety of ways today in the automotive industry, construction, food, cosmetics, animal feed, dietary supplements and medicine
A Versatile Cultivated Plant
Hemp has always been extremely important for the development of humanity. Without hemp, sailing voyages across the world's oceans would hardly have been possible. Johannes Gutenberg printed the first Bible not on wood-based paper but on durable hemp paper – an example of the lasting significance of this plant.
Today, too, hemp makes a valuable contribution: in the automotive industry, in construction as insulation material, in food production, in cosmetics, textiles, oils and, of course, in medicine.
Why Was It Banned?
Anyone who looks at the history of industrial hemp will inevitably ask how such a valuable and versatile plant could ever have been banned. This guide provides well-founded answers and opens your eyes to a millennia-old treasure that is more relevant today than ever.
