Dosing Your Medicine, Part 2

Cannabis (medical marijuana) is an ancient herb, with its healing effects recorded over 5,000 years ago. Over 93% of its chemical compounds have no psychotropic effect. Cannabis is simply an herb, not a drug. Herbs are gentle, natural compounds that prompt your body’s own healing processes to address the illness, condition or “dis-ease” you are experiencing.

Dosing Your Medicine, Part 1

With herbal medicine, more than any other health care treatment, the patient needs to be in charge of her dose. The rule of dosing all herbal medicine, cannabis included, is that it is individuated. One person’s dose may not work for the next person, even if they are both treating the same condition.

Herbs and Medicinals

CBD medicine doesn’t get you high. But it does decrease tumor size, relieve pain — especially neuropathic pain — and serves as a major natural anti-inflammatory, helping treat many conditions rooted in inflammation including heart disease, arthritis, diabetes, and others. CBD medicines come in many forms: tinctures, juice, capsules, salves, ointments, candies.

Health Wisdom: Returning to our Roots

We turn to nature to calm our anxious minds; to stimulate our creativity; to inspire our spirits. Why not turn to nature to heal our bodies? There are many approaches to achieving and maintaining good health. Our body is a vital, dynamic organism and is best served with many different natural remedies, not one symptom-targeting pill created in a laboratory.
