Скачать или смотреть Cannabis & Alzheimer's: CBD/THC for Dementia? [Hemp, Marijuana, etc.]

CBD oils and "medical marijuana" are certainly hot-button topics. Among the touted benefits are the potential for counteracting inflammation, the possible reduction of anxiety and pain; and numerous other salubrious and supportive properties for treating conditions from cancer to obesity (and much else besides).

But! Do the active ingredients in Cannabis plants -- components termed "cannabinoids" -- provide any assistance for people suffering from various forms of dementia and cognitive impairment, including those with Alzheimer's Disease, Huntington's Disease, Parkinson's Disease, and so on?

In this video -- my first after a several month long hiatus -- I explore answers to these questions, drawing as usual from medical journals and news reports.

Along the way, I'll draw and help explain the often confusing distinctions made between "hemp" (or "industrial hemp") and "marijuana."

Caveat: Mainly, my twin foci are Cannabidiol, referred to as "CBD," and Tetrahydrocannabinol, or "THC." However, by some counts, the total spectrum of cannabinoids may run in the hundreds. Exhaustively treating this entire array of chemicals is well beyond the scope of this presentation.
