Cannabis Facts and Myths
- Cannabis can be the most effective- or the only effective treatment-for some patients
- Cananbis is one of the safest most versatile medicinal plant in our world
- There are no serious long acting side effects because Cannabis has a low toxicity profile
- common side effects are generally mild and only last as long as the product is active in the system
- Common side effects can be eliminated through proper dosing, routes of administration and use of the appropriate strains.
- Cannabis has a wide therapeutic window and when used appropriately is not usually found to be addictive
- Smoking Cannabis has NOT been shown to cuase lung cancer
- You do NOT have to get “high” to enjoy the benefits and healing ability of Cannabis
- Cannabis does NOT kill healthy brain cells
- Cannabis is anti-inflammatory, neuro-protective, and anti-spasmotic. It reduces the need for high doses of opioids, muscle relaxants, sedatives, and antidepressants which reduces risk of addiction
- Cannabis also increases the effectiveness of opioid drugs which makes it possible to reduc opiate dosing
- No one has died due to an over consumption of cannabid. It does not effect the part of the brain that shuts down respiration and the heart. It is estimated that it would take 800 joints smoked within 15 minutes which is not possible and the resulting death would be from carbon monixide poisoning and not the cannabis.
What is Medical Cannabis?
Medical Cannabis (aka Marijuana & Hemp) is what we call varieties of the plant that have been found to be therapeutically helpful for treating a condition or symptom. There is so much variety in this plant family that effects of cannabis differ greatly depending on what strain you are using and the individual using it.
There are more than 140 cannabinoids found in the various strains. Of these CBD and THC have been studied the most. other cannabinoids include CBN, CBG, Delta 8, CBC, and many more as well as terpenes and flavonoids all having wonderful medicinal and healing properties.
Using these in the combinations makes them more beneficial for treating individual conditions and symptoms than using each component separately. This is known as THE ENTOURAGE EFFECT.
For these reasons, many use Cannabinoid therapy for a wide range of conditions:
- Mood disorders: Depression, Bipolar
- Neurodegenereative Conditions
- Pain and Inflammation
- Panic Disorders (PTSD)
- Pets
And Many More…
