The use of cannabis as an alternative policy in health therapy in Venezuelan society.

At present, in countries of America and Europe such as Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Finland, Germany, Holland, among others, the therapeutic and medicinal use of cannabis has been legally implemented with satisfactory results demonstrating the medicinal benefits in health therapy that this plant can cause the people to whom it is supplied. In that sense, changes have been adopted in the perspective of traditional medicine. It is only used to cross various drugs, it offers a space for specific alternatives for new ways to save lives and / or maintain them. Thus, the use of this plant becomes a natural alternative in terms of health to treat specific diseases.

Cannabis is a medicinal plant that has served in the healing process as a companion in the formal treatment of certain diseases by mitigating symptoms. Thus, people use it to treat a variety of medical problems, such as; Multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, glaucoma, Alzheimer's, HIV / AIDS, cancer, muscle spasticity, chronic pain, which results in greater efficiency in the medical process.

On the other hand, the documentary and experiential references of scientific support with respect to the damages or benefits on the use of cannabis in health therapy indicate that the benefits are quite significant in comparison with the ills that it can cause to health.

However, there is research in opposition to the legalization of Cannabis, referring to the progressive release of information on the medical benefits of the healing plant have dismissed future considerations such as addiction, mental health and behavioral effects. Starting from the previous assumptions, it is conducive to the research that is intended to be carried out in order to know the benefits and damages that it may cause in the social system.

Taking into account the aforementioned, in Venezuela there are unfavorable conditions in public health institutions for society. However, under these difficulties services are provided to the Venezuelan community. Also, the situation of many patients is increasingly vulnerable to these conditions and this is compounded by the central problem that is the shortage of medicines and low levels of production.

However, the disposition of the Venezuelan State regarding Cannabis has not had any pronouncement beyond a declaration made by the former Foreign Minister of the Republic of Venezuela Elías Jaua (2013), when he made a reference to the process of legalization of Cannabis that It was presented in Uruguay by former President José Mujica. And, commented on the matter that would be evaluated such unpublished experience.

For this reason, this research aims to study the use of Cannabis in health therapy as an alternative policy for Venezuelan society to analyze the possible improvements in the different diseases that the country's members have. As a contribution to the socio-economic crisis that crosses the country to a medicine of an entirely natural nature.

In this sense, this research will have a methodology of documentary design that will be based on a bibliographic inventory with documented experiences of other countries that have adopted cannabis within their health policies. This will allow to have scientific support on research, with a descriptive level that explains a phenomenon that is innovative in terms of health and has produced great scientific contributions that have made progress in the evolution of alternative medicines of a natural nature.

Thus, this research project can be a breakthrough in health for Venezuelan society. And, currently a natural reinforcement of medicine as an expression of the therapeutic and mitigating properties that the plant contains, and which were of scientific ignorance. Its action in the symptomatology of certain diseases that have shown that the properties they contain are beneficial for the organism of the human being.

Therefore, it could be an important contribution to the social field because through the knowledge expressed in the research, its use can be put into practice and thus achieve a better quality of life for citizens.

Finally, it is important to study Cannabis for the Venezuelan State as an alternative policy that allows articulating solutions in the healthcare sector of the health sector, and to complement services with a completely natural medicine without excessive cost, which can be self-cultivated.
