Dr. Grotenhermen first examines the history of marijuana as medicine. He explains the biochemistry of cannabinoids and shows how they interact with the human body, including a look at cannabinoid receptors and how cannabinoids occur naturally in the body.
The therapeutic applications covered include the use of CBD to treat seizures, epilepsy, anxiety, several forms of cancer, muscular disorders and psychotic states and the use of THC to treat schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s, ADHD, Tourette’s, Parkinson’s, impotence, depression, lupus, COPD and chronic pain, among many other physical, neurological and emotional conditions. He offers a complete discussion of safe use, possible side effects, contraindications and precautions (including during pregnancy and chemotherapy), alongside research data that confirms cannabis as one of the least toxic substances in existence.
Written by a practising physician, this guide provides everything you need to know to use cannabinoids safely and effectively for health and healing.
