Didn't that guy (complete fraud) who did the 'hockey stick' prove peer reviews were nonsense?

Marijuana relaxes the stomach muscles and has been used to relieve pain with stomach cancer patients. Also (according to Peter Tosh) it's beneficial for glaucoma.

The evidence for cannabidiol health benefits

CBD has been touted for a wide variety of health issues, but the strongest scientific evidence is for its effectiveness in treating some of the cruelest childhood epilepsy syndromes, such as Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (LGS), which typically don't respond well to antiseizure medications. In numerous studies, CBD was able to reduce the number of seizures, and, in some cases, stop them altogether. Epidiolex, which primarily consists of CBD, is the first cannabis-derived medicine approved by the FDA for these conditions.

Animal studies, and self-reports or research in humans, suggest CBD may also help with:

  • Anxiety: Studies and clinical trials are exploring the common report that CBD can reduce anxiety.
  • Insomnia: Studies suggest that CBD may help with both falling asleep and staying asleep, in part by helping address chronic pain and anxiety.
  • Chronic pain: Increasingly, human studies are substantiating the claims that CBD helps control pain. One animal study from the European Journal of Pain suggests CBD could help lower pain and inflammation due to arthritis when applied to skin. Other research identifies how CBD may inhibit inflammatory and neuropathic pain, which are difficult to treat.
  • Addiction: CBD can help lower cravings for tobacco and heroin under certain conditions, according to some research in humans. Animal models of addiction suggest it may also help lessen cravings for other addictive substances such as alcohol, cannabis, opiates, and stimulants.

Outside of the US, the prescription drug Sativex, which uses CBD as an active ingredient, is approved for muscle spasticity associated with multiple sclerosis and for cancer pain. Within the US, Epidiolex is approved for certain types of epilepsy and tuberous sclerosis.

Treatment not cured and YES I MENTIONED EPILEPSY..but generally it's all fake news. The greatest natural drug is heroin and other opiates which big pharma and the church and the left hate.

Are you stoned now?  How did you manage to get "the left" linked in with big pharma and the church. 
Are you high on MAGA?

Guess you're the one who is high with 2 others. You guys replied to a topic from 2021/2022. I'll join then:

 

So far, solid studies suggest that these chemicals can:

  • Control vomiting in people undergoing cancer chemotherapy. Drugs based on two lab-made forms of THC are FDA-approved for this purpose.
  • Modestly reduce pain in people with conditions such as nerve damage, cancer, multiple sclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Reduce muscle spasms in people with multiple sclerosis. (There's less evidence it helps muscle spasms in people with spinal cord injuries).

In addition, there's some evidence that medical marijuana might:

  • Improve sleep in the short term for people with obstructive sleep apnea, fibromyalgia, chronic pain, or multiple sclerosis.
  • Increase appetite and decrease weight loss in people with HIV and AIDS.
  • Reduce tics in people with Tourette's syndrome.
  • Reduce anxiety in people with social anxiety disorder.
  • Improve symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder.

There's not enough evidence to say whether medical marijuana works or not for many other conditions, including irritable bowel syndrome, Parkinson's disease, and addiction to other substances.

In some cases, the limited evidence available suggests it doesn't help. That's the case with Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. That's also the case with glaucoma, an eye disease that can be caused by increased pressure in the eyes. Marijuana might lower the pressure briefly, but not as long as effective drugs do.
