Here is a copy of Darcy Stoddard speech;

Thank You, It is an honor to be here today.
And thank you all for attending and supporting this event.
It’s so wonderful to see so many freedom supporters here today.

I would like to share with you my discoveries of the healing benefits of cannabis root.
Hello, I am Darcy Stoddard, the maker of Hemp-EaZe for cannabis root healing.-

I was first introduced to the healing benefits of cannabis root healing 14 years ago, when in one quick fall I; dislocated my ankle, shattered 3" of leg bone, shredded my tendons and severed the nerves.-

Yet a year after surgery, my ankle was still swollen, I was in constant pain, Couldn't walk for more than five minutes and my foot was still numb.-

The doctor's only suggestion was that "I should get use to using a cane" and to take cortisone shots for the swelling!-

This concerned me, since cortisone has been linked to cancer.-

Like many in the world today, I had lost my confidence in modern medicine.-

In my travels, I have met many, who suffer from the wrong diagnosis and harmful medications.- people who have suffered long enough, are reaching out for more traditional Earth bound based medicines and are drawn to find alternative ways to heal and prevent illness. And I am one of many.-

For over 30 years, I have been learning the Ancient ways of healing herbs and using them to make salves for my family's minor aches and pains, from the herbs that I have grown in my garden.-

So I was motivated into researching the right herbs that would heal my injuries. And I started with some tried and true herbs like comfrey.-

Comfrey works well for muscle rebuilding and strengthening. And for mending wounds and broken bones.-

Sage has always been another first choice for me, for it is also a powerful herb for soothing muscles.

While continuing to formulate a cream that I could massage in, I spoke with Bonnie Metcalf, who was the owner/operator of the Yuba County Cannabis Coalition.-

She asked if I had ever tried using cannabis root. She said she- read that cannabis root reduces swelling and ease pain.

I was intrigued.
But when Looking for information, I became aware that, although the stem, flower, seeds, and leaves have received an enormous amount of attention, Almost nothing, so far, had been published about the roots!

Much of the information that I did find, was a casual mention in Ancient History.

For example, I found that some appalachian remedies for arthritis and pain, included hemp root.

so I thought I’d give it a try and added the hemp root,making a 9 herbs formula.-

I was amazed. The cream started soothing me right away,
simply from a topical skin application.-

After a mere two months, my swelling was gone and the pain was less frequent.

Within a year, I had gained full movement of my ankle, I had feeling down to my toes, and the nerve pain was gone!-

My family and friends were so amazed at my recovery that they wanted to try the cream too.

People started reporting a feeling of relief from Arthritis and sore muscles, eczema and rosacea.

And they encouraged friends and family to try it.
Everyone encouraged me to put it on the market.

But I wanted to be sure that these experiences were solid, and not just occasional happenings.

So I began a series of test marketing for three years, with volunteers from across the country.

We offered it to Arthritis suffers, chemo patients, people with old injuries and new.

They reported that our cream relieved; painful scare tissue, sprains, broken toes, psoriasis and fibromyalgia.
It healed infected tattoos, restless leg syndrome and more.
At one point, I was told that the cream healed diaper rash in an hour!

It was after all this testing that we finally decided to name the famous cream, Hemp-EaZe, for healing at the root of the problem.

Along the way, I discovered that, unlike the inhaled or ingested form, it’s legal to possess Hemp-EaZe without a doctor’s recommendation due to a court ruling in 1973 ( People Vs. Vargas).

Because it’s suspended in oils and waxes, the intoxicants can not be consumed, therefore, it’s exempt from control by the Federal Substance Abuse Act.

In June 2008, I was contacted by a Miss Blair Van Pelt, a research student at the University of Idaho.

Blair told me that while she was testing cannabis root, two years previous, she saw positive results while using cannabis root to treat staph infection!
She wish to use Hemp-EaZe in her research, stating the Hemp-EaZe was the only product she had found that contained Hemp Root.-

The study concluded, the exciting news,that there was no THC in cannabis root.

To further validate the conclusion; In July 2009, Samples of Hemp-EaZe Therapy Cream was confiscated in a raid conducted by the Australian Federal Police. After 4 months of scrutinized testing, the Feds deemed that the Cannabis root healing cream, was negative of THC and returned the personal supply of Hemp-EaZe back to it's rightful owner.-

Hemp EaZe 1, Feds 0!

During the court proceedings, the Assistant to the Speaker of the House of the Australian Legislative Assembly, was very intrigued about the Hemp-EaZe testimonial that was presented and asked to sample some of the cream, to try on her swollen knees.
She said it started to work right away.- Nearly 5 months later her boss, “the Speaker of the house“, began using the cannabis root cream too. This is a great! This is a significant step forward for Australia and cannabis activism in their country.

And another victory for Hemp-EaZe.- Currently, we are working with Chico Holistic Center in California. They work with neuropathy patients and diabetics.
They apply Hemp-EaZe in their treatments, because of it’s- success to reducing edema, breaking up the bruising and rejuvenating the circulation.-

Recently, a new patient came in to the clinic and his doctor told him that the next step for his severely ulcerated feet was amputation. Feeling he had nothing to lose, he obliged to give the Holistic Center a try.
Within three weeks of treatments, his ulcers were gone. This was due to a combination of electrolytes and regular applications of Hemp-EaZe. Healing at the ROOT of the Problem!

-Because of an accident, I have begun this remarkable journey of healing and helping others, to understand what the medicinal root truly has to offer.
The hemp root can do so many things, and we barely scratched the surface of understanding it’s healing capabilities.
It has shown us it’s power to save people from amputation!
In the past 30 years, more then 10,000 scientific papers have been published about the cannabis plant. Still they continually leave out the root in their studies. We must try to lift the restrictions off of hemp root, so that more studies and research can be implemented.
It is time to reinstate the lowly little root back to it’s formidable position, as a primary healing herb........and I am leading the way!
Thank You.
