Sub-titled 'How Medical Cannabis and CBD are healing everything from anxiety to chronic pain'. Millions of people around the world are healing illnesses with cannabis yet nonetheless many doctors remain reluctant to discuss cannabis medicine with their patients. There is much conflicting misinformation from unreliable sources, so finding out if cannabis can be an effective treatment can feel nearly impossible. Dr Bonni Goldstein has helped thousands of patients suffering from chronic, difficult-to-treat conditions improved with cannabis. In her revelatory book she explains the current state of scientific research on how cannabis interacts with human physiology to create homeostasis or balance, leading to good health. Many of the plant's compounds including CBD and their therapeutic effects are explained in detail. There is a guide through the confusing array of cannabis-based products now available, and detailed guidance on what to avoid, and how her patients have been able to customise a personalised cannabis regimen. Dr Goldstein presents 28 common conditions which patients have found cannabis treatment to be helpful for including cancer, insomnia and gastrointestinal disorders. She guides you carefully through all the scientific research with big clear headers and short entries of the medicinal effects of CBN, THCA, CBDA and its interaction with the brain and body and how they inhibit COX, decreasing production of prosta-glandins. COX enzymes have also been shown to promote metastasis of breast cancer cells. Includes case studies. Even if you have never smoked that proverbial joint, this therapy is worth learning about. 355pp, large softback, illus and charts. Save £10.
