According to The National Parkinson's Foundation the  benefits of Medical Marijuana for the treatment of Parkinson's Disease include a possible improvement in anxiety, pain management, sleep dysfunction, weight loss and nausea.  Research suggests that cannabis might be neuroprotective, saving neurons from damage caused by Parkinson's.  \n\ntatiananp\n_____________________\nOf course CBD is good for Parkinson's disease.

I've posted a link below of our articles and questions related to Parkinson's.  I think the articles will give you some useful background info and insights on how cannabis can help with pain, etc. \n\nI've also linked an article/interview/video with the folks from MoonMan's Mistress. They make paleo and \"clean\" edibles and work very closely with people with Parkinson's. The co-owners are Liz, who was inspired by her own diagnosis with autoimmune diseases to start the company, and Jamel, a personal trainer who works with Parkinson's patients. I think you will find a lot of good info from them not only about cannabis for Parkinson's but also on  a holistic approach to help feel good.

You place the bud inside the grinder and grind it and any kief should be caught in the trap below. The kief is very light and good for edibles as well. Typically, if you make a cannabutter recipe you may be instructed to use cheesecloth towards the end to catch any of the larger chunks.

Will the THC still get to my brain?","slug":"cannabis-oil-suppositories-for-brain-cancer-will-the-thc-still-get-to-my-brain","content":"\"Hello \nI hope you're well. I hope you don't mind, I just wanted to ask you a question to see if you may know. I have been researching the internet but i can't really find anything specific to my question.\n\nI have been taking cannabis oil for a couple of years now to cure my brain cancer. I have had my ups & downs - my cancer did disappear for about a year but unfortunately came back in April of this year & I am back on high dosages of the oil ever since.\n\nI am suffering from extreme anxiety, depression & paranoia which I never used to have. I have been looking online and came across that taking oil through suppositories mean you have a zero head high. This is music to my ears.\n\nI understand through researching the internet it doesn't give you a head high because it does not reach the liver. It is simply absorbed into the bloodstream.\n\nSo I am wondering if you don't get a head high, does this mean I have less THC going into my brain? I have brain cancer therefore I want the THC to be going into my brain.\n\nI am reading online that suppository method is the superior method because of the absorption rate. I have read that you get 50% less absorption rate by Oral intake because it goes through the digestive system and then into the bloodstream.\n\nAny knowledge on this would be greatly appreciated regarding Brain cancer.\n\nIdeally it would be great news if I could continue to take the oil without getting the high but I want to be certain this way works for brain cancer. I have read Rick Simpson page cureyourowncancer.org & they don't specifically mention brain cancer.\n\nKind regards\n\nRobert Montgomery\"\n_____________________\nHi Robert,\nFrom what i have read, THC can get through the blood brain barrier, so even taken rectally, it will get there. Here is a link to an article that might be helpful\nhttps://merryjane.com/culture/what-you-need-to-know-about-using-cannabis-suppositories\nFrom my experience with people with cancer, those that are consistent with taking the oil everyday have had the best results. Even if they are doing well, they are taking a maintenance dose of the oil.\n\nPiantaTinta","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8361-markdown","title":"Can cannabis oil help with anaplastic astrocytomas?","slug":"can-cannabis-oil-help-with-anaplastic-astrocytomas","content":"\"My brother had a heavy cannabis habit for 20 years.  Four months ago he had massive seizure then they found a large tumour on the front right lobe of his brain. The tumor was completely removed, and he did 6weeks of chemo and radiation; doctors want him to do more, but he is unsure. The tumour was grade 3 but my brother is 35, a surfer, and otherwise healthy. I have found him some high THC oil, but post-surgery he now suffers from anxiety so doesn't really want to get high. Is there a way to take high doses of CBD without getting stoned? Thanks for reading, desperate times xxxx\"\n_____________________\nHello, According to a research article by Nephi Stella 2010 , \"CBD inhibits the migration of both astrocytomas and microglia, so treating individuals with this compound could reduce the infiltration of astrocytomas into healthy brain parenchyma, and also reduce the recruitment of microglia toward the tumor mass... An additional advantage of CBD is that it directly kills astrocytomas when applied at high concentrations. The studies suggest that injection of high concentrations of CBD could constitute a useful regimen for neurosurgeons to use in the treatment of malignant astrocytomas and of excessive/chronic neuroinflammation. Such a treatment could provide therapeutic effects both directly, by killing the astrocytoma and limiting its propagation, and indirectly, by reducing the accumulation of activated microglia or invading peripheral immune cells.\"\n\nIn sum: The above research article suggests that ingested CBD may manage neuroinflammation and direct injection of CBD into the brain tumor by a neurosurgeon may eradicate the malignancy. However, you brother has already undergone excision of the tumor, radiation, chemo and is perhaps interested in supplementation and prevention of recurrence with CBD. CBD is known to prevent tumor growth and is non-psychoactive, meaning CBD alone will not produce a \"high\".\n\nStella, Nephi. “Cannabinoid and Cannabinoid-like Receptors in Microglia, Astrocytes and Astrocytomas.” Glia 58.9 (2010): 1017–1030.

After obtaining your card you can then legally purchase and consume within CA. Unfortunately, it is not legal to transport your medication outside of state lines.\n\nAlthough CA is going recreational in January, you will most likely still need your med card through 2018 as most licenses being given within the state are for medical dispensaries and deliveries and the roll out may be much slower than anticipated. \n\nWe would love for you to use our HelloMD service!

Yes cannabis has the potential to help with chronic constipation. Constipation can be a symptom of another digestive or physical disorder, could be related to diet and activity level, possibly a side effect from medication like opioids, iron supplements or chronic laxative use, or even related to stress and anxiety. I always recommend examining your life and lifestyle to determine if there are other ways to improve your constipation naturally. Some common ways to help are: increasing your daily water intake, increasing fruit and vegetable intake, increasing fiber intake, decreasing use of unnecessary medications, decreasing excess meat, cheese, and fats in the diet, and exercising 30 minutes daily. Cannabis helps people with constipation. Once you've tried to help change some factors in your life to help yourself, you could try vaporizing cannabis or ingesting cannabis to see if it helps you too.

Muscle spasm, caused by issues with the nervous system, is a common qualifying condition in medical cannabis states, and in other countries, they have some studies indicating a good balance between THC and CBD can be helpful for symptom control.  Often it can be difficult to find medications for spasm that don't have negative side effects, so I can see why you might be looking into medical cannabis as an option.\n\ndrbultman","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_8328-markdown","title":"marijuana for arthritis pain","slug":"marijuana-for-arthritis-pain","content":"","image":null}}]}},"pageContext":{"limit":12,"skip":252,"numPages":63,"currentPage":22,"id":5052,"name":"Cannabis","slug":"cannabis","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
