Marijuana
has long had a bad reputation as an illegal drug. However, this has
changed since its legalization for medical use. The herb provides
several benefits that many are keen to take advantage of. Here are a
few of them:
- It’s a treatment for glaucoma. Glaucoma is a disease that puts pressure on the eyeball, which damages the optic nerve. This will eventually result in blindness. However, smoking marijuana regularly helps ease the pressure and slows the progression of the condition.
- It helps with nausea. Being nauseous is a symptom of many diseases and medical treatments. Cannabinoids found in marijuana can have mind-altering effects that positively affect those feeling nausea. Smoking some weed can help patients deal with their condition.
- Pain relief. Many conditions like multiple sclerosis and fibromyalgia make a person feel constant pain. Smoking marijuana has been shown to significantly reduce the pain that they experience. It’s a lot better than using opioids, which can be addictive.
- Neurological conditions can be treated. Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s are two diseases of the nervous system that are difficult to treat. Regular marijuana use has been seen to slow the progress of the two diseases and ease the effects of the symptoms.
