Cannabinoids ----- the actual active ingredient of medical marijuana -- are similar to chemicals the body makes that are concerned in memory, pain, appetite, movement.

Research suggests cannabinoids medically help for:
  • Reduce inflammation and relieve pain
  • Reduce anxiety
  • Kill cancer cells and slow tumor growth
  • Control nausea and vomiting caused by cancer chemotherapy
  • Stimulate appetite and improve weight gain in people with cancer and AIDS
  • Relax tight muscles in people with MS

Has anyone who is on a non-stimulant ADHD drug such as Strattera used CBD/THC edibles (20:1 or 10:5) to calm anxiety? My friend is having a reaction to a daily anxiety drug (Buspar) that makes him throw up and he'd rather use an edible. Any suggestions?
