The last contributor is Not 100% accurate: Marijuana will help glaucoma, Alzheimer's, stomach and intestine problems, tremors, seizures, epilepsy, etc. Marijuana has many different chemicals that are released in different ways of consuming (smoking, eating, drinking, ect.) The plant, without these chemicals, would just be what its name is weed. THC is the strongest and most potent of these chemicals, which happens to be what helps cancer. It has nothing to do with "getting the munchies".
