    Michael Pollen is a bad ass and a freedom fighter.

    Thank you for clarifying that opioids aren't the problem. Thank you.

    "Let's look at the condition of our cages"
    This is a very profound statement.
    What is the environment we are stuck in?
    Now 58 years old:
    Coming out of a childhood of emotional abuse and trauma and emotional neglect into an emotionally abusive and emotionally neglected marriage to a 10 year lull and into a narcissistic marriage of emotional abuse and trauma, seeking to overcome the PTSD, CPTSD, CEN, anxiety, depression, etc., I have found myself seeking ways of escaping the pain and demons that haunt me but have refused to turn to "drugs" but have been looking more and more at natural growing medicines for relief but concerned about the stigma and legal ramifications surrounding them.

    they should have called it "The War on Knowledge part Duex" because that is really what it comes down to, it's a war on your ability to decide for yourself

    Since it seems Doctors will no longer prescribe oxy or any other opioids for pain management, that number of 93,000 deaths in one year seems so unrealistic. That makes me think that includes heroin overdoses, is that correct? Heroin use is off the charts now, enabled by cities like Portland, Seattle and others that not only look the other way from blatant public use but even legalize it.
    I’d like to see the number of opiate prescriptions written last year and compare it to numbers 10-20 years ago. I’m sure those numbers are closely monitored.
    How is one supposed to manage or treat pain now? The last Dr. Recommended Tylenol & lavender for fucks sake. We’re talking serious, debilitating pain. I hope these Drs. Suffer from some severe pain in their lifetime.

      The deaths could be from Tylenol overdose. They see opiate in system write down do without ant serious investigation

      I told my doctor that everyone demonizing pain meds they are going to find out the hard way if something happens to them or someone they love and they find out they can’t get relief

      You're absolutely 100% right. The statistics reflect that about 92% of opioid overdoses or more are directly from Ch*nese fentanyl coming over from clandestine labs, ~8% are Heroin overdoses and guess what! A statistically insignificant number of

    Poppy tea is not pure morphine and often the thebaine content makes people very sick. It's a poor alternative to good pharmaceutical grade oxycodone which should be available to anyone who asks at this point, so that pain patients can get relief and addicts can get off fentanyl and back onto something safe.

    Mild narcotic ?? Morphine is pretty damn addictive actually!

    His arguments are bullshit and i know.first of all opium tea is NOT a mild narcotic and a guarantee that a nice cage with toys does not make the rats go for wather instead of morphine😂. He also used to grow cannabis in his teens.. I bet he is an addict.😉
