Here are the top 14 ways to use medical marijuana & CBD oil

Cannabis, and both CBD & THC, are well documented for their anti inflammatory properties. Since inflammation is also well known to cause many medical issues, cannabis has a heap of medical benefits from that perspective alone – without the added complications that can come from pharmaceutical inflammatories like Advil. But other than just plain being awesome for inflammation, here our the top 14 ways you can use cannabis medically.

Unlike smoking cigarettes, when smoking cannabis in the form of cannabis your lungs aren’t harmed. In fact, a 2012 study found that cannabis actually helps increase the capacity of the lungs rather than cause any harm to it.

There are hundreds of chemical compounds in cannabis, many of which are cannabinoids. Cannabinoids have been linked to providing relief of chronic pain due to their chemical makeup.

9)Can CBD or cannabis help individuals with multiple sclerosis?

Yes. Multiple sclerosis can be painful, and cannabis is known to provide relief for it. Multiple sclerosis leads to painful muscle contractions and cannabis can help reduce that pain.

10)Reduces side effects linked to hepatitis C and increases the effectiveness of treatment

The treatment for hepatitis C has numerous side effects that include nausea, fatigue, depression, and muscle aches. These can last for months for some hepatitis C sufferers. Cannabis can help reduce the side effects caused by the treatment while making it more effective at the same time.

13)Can CBD or cannabis help with epilepsy?

Lab studies, as well as clinical trials, and anecdotal studies show that CBD can have a positive effect on lessoning seizures for those suffering from epilepsy. CBD oil was approved by the FDA in 2018, but there are many anecdotal accounts of people using CBD oil to help lesson seizures.

14)Cannabis or CBD may help with Inflammatory Bowl Disease ( IBD, IBS, Crohns, etc…)

Recent studies found that while cannabis did not induce remission in patients, cannabis did lesson symptoms of IBS / IBD and cause a reduction in disease activity, providing some relief.

Before you experiment with any CBD, THC, or edibles for any medical reason, you should check with your doctor that it will not combine badly with any other medications you might be on.

Hey I’ve been taking your cbd drops for a month now and I’ve reduced junk food cravings as well as quit smoking weed.
Reduced anxiety.
Spending more time relaxing instead of working: which has helped productivity.

Full spectrum CBD is legit and I’m glad I read this and tried it.

The hype is real.

I juggle a family, a job and part time teaching and the full spectrum cbd drops work better than St. John’s Wort.

Half a dropper twice a day is perfect, but if I take a full dropper I get a little sleepy and this works against me. I’m about 190lbs to put the dose into perspective.

Thanks for directing me to the full spectrum cbd. I appreciate it
