Cannabis is a drug derived from a bushy plant found wild in most parts of the world and easily cultivated in any country.

Cannabis, also known as marijuana, is a plant that contains compounds called cannabinoids. The most well-known cannabinoid is tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is the psychoactive compound that is responsible for the "high" that people experience when they use marijuana. Cannabis is often used for its medicinal and recreational properties.

Marijuana is typically smoked, but it can also be consumed in other forms, such as vaporized, eaten (e.g. as part of an edible product), or applied topically as a lotion or oil. When used, it can produce a variety of effects, including relaxation, altered senses (e.g. seeing brighter colors), and increased appetite.

There is ongoing debate about the safety and potential risks of using cannabis. Some research has suggested that it may have medicinal benefits, such as reducing chronic pain and helping to control seizures. However, there are also potential risks, including the possibility of short-term memory loss, anxiety, and increased heart rate. Long-term use of marijuana may also be associated with an increased risk of mental health problems and addiction.

It is worth noting that the legal status of cannabis varies by location. In some places, it is legal for medicinal and/or recreational use, while in others it is illegal.
