Controversial Topic
Updated: Jan 15, 2019
Though it remains a controversial topic for some, medical marijuana actually has multiple health benefits for those dealing with a range of chronic illnesses or painful conditions. According to a Harvard University health blog written by Peter Grinspoon, MD, medical marijuana can effectively soothe nerve pain, like that caused by multiple sclerosis. It can also relax muscles, is said to lessen tremors in those with Parkinson’s disease, can manage nausea and weight loss, and can treat glaucoma. The article even notes research suggesting that veterans returning from combat zones can find relief from PTSD with its help.
