Cannabis is a plant that has been used by human beings for over 2,700 years. The Chinese, Greeks and Romans used it to cure their illnesses, to get creative, for religious and for recreational purposes. Not too long ago, its use has been criminalized almost worldwide for over a century. This substance is still considered a Schedule I substance according to the U.S. Government and the Federal law. However, this hasn't stopped over 100 million Americans from breaking the law and trying this plant by inhaling it in the form of smoke or by consuming it in edible form.
There are many celebrities who openly admit to using cannabis. The famous ones include Snoop Dogg, Miley Cyrus, Seth Rogen, James Franco, Rihanna and even Cameron Diaz.
