Abstract

Cannabis species’ historical use for relieving medical symptoms, through various preparations like smoking, edibles, ointments, balms and others, dates back over 3,000 years ago, initially in the Far East (especially India and China). Subsequent trading routes brought the herb to the Western World, where its consumption reached significant levels, leading to prohibitions in certain situations, such as in 1764 when Emperor Napoleon of France, having encountered the plant during his Egyptian campaign, observed a decrease in combative behaviour among soldiers, prompting restrictions.
