This is ground-breaking innovation as autoimmune diseases can also lead to serious complications when they’re left untreated.

Some of these complications include severe damage to body tissue, abnormal growth that affects organs, and changes in the way body organs function.

• Used to treat Parkinson’s disease (P.D.)

Interestingly enough, patients with P.D. commonly report using cannabis therapeutically, [1-5] and one recent survey finds that nearly 25 percent of U.S. patients with the disease acknowledge having consumed cannabis within the past six months.

• Greatly reduces pain

Cannabis has several micro constituents, but the two main compounds when discussing pain relief are cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).
Both serve their purpose in alleviating pain:

•THC, when inhaled, stimulates the brain’s cannabinoid receptors. Therein activating the brain’s reward system and reducing pain levels.

•CBD, on the other hand, interacts with pain receptors in the brain to exert pain-relieving and anti-inflammatory effects.

• Prevents Nausea and Vomiting

Substantial evidence shows that tampering with the endocannabinoid system regulates nausea and vomiting in humans and other animals.

A recent study from animal experiments suggests that cannabinoids may be especially useful in treating complicated symptoms of nausea in chemotherapy patients, which the currently available conventional pharmaceutical agents don’t control well.

The anti-emetic effect of cannabinoids has been demonstrated across many animals capable of vomiting in the case of a toxic challenge.

CB1 agonism conceals vomiting, which is reversed by CB1 antagonism, and CB1 inverse agonism promotes vomiting.

• Improve sleep disturbances.

Cannabis helps with insomnia and other sleep problems.
Modern science has measured what people have known and experienced from the dawn of time: cannabis has relaxing and sedative effects.

A new study found that cannabis reduces the time it takes to fall asleep for people experiencing sleep deprivation. In particular, cannabis makes falling asleep easier. It was discovered that the use of cannabis resulted in an average of 30 minutes less time in falling asleep.

The study also took into account people who were able to fall asleep without ease. Among this group, cannabis helped them fall asleep even faster, by 15 minutes.

Conclusion

In general, cannabis often has a negative connotation, but it has a ton of medicinal properties, some of which are yet to be explored and assimilated by modern science.

But like any other powerful medicinal herb, if abused can be detrimental to one’s health.
