What Is Medical Marijuana?


Medical marijuana uses the marijuana plant or the chemicals it contains to treat diseases or conditions. It is essentially the same product as recreational marijuana, but it is taken for medical purposes.
The marijuana plant contains over 100 different chemicals called cannabinoids. Each has a different effect on the body. Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) are the most chemicals employed in medicine. THC also produces the "high" feeling people experience when they smoke or eat marijuana.




What is Medical Marijuana Used For?


Medical marijuana is employed to treat a variety of various conditions, including:
  •          Alzheimer's disease
  •          Loss of appetite
  •          Cancer
  •          Crohn's disease
  •          Eating disorders such as anorexia
  •          Epilepsy
  •          Glaucoma
  •          Mental health issues like schizophrenia and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
  •          Multiple sclerosis
  •          Muscle spasms
  •          Nausea
  •         Pain
  •          Waste syndrome (cachexia)

But it's not yet been proven to assist many of those conditions, with some exceptions.


How Does It Help?

Cannabinoids - The active chemicals in medical marijuana - are similar to the chemicals the body makes that are involved in appetite, memory, movement, and pain.
Research suggests that cannabinoids may:

  •          Reduces anxiety
  •          Reduces inflammation and relieves pain
  •          Controlling nausea and vomiting caused by cancer chemotherapy
  •          Kill cancer cells and slow tumor growth
  •          Relax tense muscles in people with MS

Can Medical Marijuana Helps to Fight Seizure Disorders?

Medical marijuana received plenty of attention some years ago when parents said that a special type of drug helps control seizures in their children. The FDA recently approved Epidiolex, which is made from CBD, as a therapy for people with very severe or difficult-to-treat seizures. In studies, some people have experienced a dramatic drop in seizures after taking this drug.
