How does Cannabis help with Physical Ailments?

Cannabinoids in the cannabis plant have anti-inflammatory properties. They activate the CB2 receptors in the human body producing effects that can reduce inflammation and thus, decrease pain in the body.

Regular, carefully administered use of Cannabis can provide persistent relief from acute and chronic pain. Cannabinoid therapy also has the potential to decrease systemic inflammation and provide relief to those with autoimmune disorders.

Some common physical ailments that cannabis can help with are Diabetes, Multiple Sclerosis, Arthritis, Chronic Pain, and Lupus.
