Persuasive Paragraph Outline Essays - Appetite Stimulants

Persuasive Paragraph Outline Topic: Marijuana legalization in Canada Topic sentence: ("should / should not" statement) The legalization of marijuana in Canada should bring more benefits than downfalls to our society. A. Major Point #1: Marijuana has medical benefits. 1. Explanation: THC can increase appetite and reduce nausea. THC may also decrease pain, inflammation (swelling and redness), and muscle control problems. It also has the ability to help kill certain cancer cells in the body. These drugs are prescribed as appetite stimulants in AIDS patients and for chemotherapy- related nausea and vomiting. They are sometimes used off-label for similar symptoms in other conditions. 2. Support (Examples, facts, statistics, etc.): "Recent animal studies have shown that marijuana extracts may help kill certain cancer cells and reduce the size of others. Evidence from one cell culture study with rodents suggests that purified extracts from whole-plant marijuana can slow the growth of cancer cells from one of the most serious types of brain tumors." https://www.drugabuse.gov/publications/drugfacts/marijuana-medicine "An oral spray nabiximols (Sativex) is approved in other countries for treatment of multiple sclerosis muscle spasticity and cancer-related pain not managed by other pain medication" https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/the-health-effects-of-marijuana-from- recreational-and-medical-use-2016081910180 B. Major Point #2: 1. Explanation: The legalization of marijuana in Canada has the potential to aid in lowering the Canada's deficit. 2. Support (examples, facts, statistics, etc.): "The bottom line is that federal (and) provincial governments might reap as much as $5 billion from legalization, but only if all the underground sales are effectively curtailed" http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/pot-revenue-government-5-billion-1.3423705 The total impact for Canada's economy from a legal weed market - including growing and distribution, pot paraphernalia, increased tourism and business taxes - would amount to between $12.7 billion to $22.6 billion annually. http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2016/10/27/marijuana-legalization-market-size- canada_n_12676754.html C. Major Point #3: Some deadbolts provide extra security for French doors by locking from the inside with a key. 1. Explanation: It would make research on marijuana much easier, as currently there are few institutions that are legally allowed to research marijuana. It could help to prove or disprove all the notions that smoking marijuana isn't as bad for the body as smoking tobacco or drinking a lot of alcohol. Wrap-up (concluding) sentence(s): The many advantages of a deadbolt make it a good investment for a homeowner; however, the type of door frame is another consideration in home security. The sentence in blue is a transitional sentence. It helps to introduce the next paragraph. You will use transitional sentences for your Research Essay, but not in the Paragraph Assignments.
