This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Remember when your Mother told you to eat your vegetables when you were growing up?  Now come learn and laugh how that message has grown up as you have.

Payton Curry, 35yr old Minnesota Native whose family lives in the hands of Western Medicine and Big Harmya, that's big Pharma to host. He has used cannabis throughout his life to help with depression, anxiety and his battle with brutal relationship alcohol. Through the use of cannabis he has helped mothers create tinctures to halt and prevent seizures, ease the harsh effects of cancer, cystic fibrosis and eating disorders. He promotes the munchies to all and encourages our country to talk a look at eating cannabis, which is a vegetable, as medicine. After all we have always been told to eat our vegetables. 

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
