There's a new reality show about a medical marijuana dispensary in California. One of the things they mentioned is that there are new strains of marijuana that is much higher in CBD vs. THC. CBD doesn't provide a high, but does provide pain relief. They also offer medication in the form of drops, pills, etc. |

thanks for the article. I do try to keep up with the research. I am on an opiate and I hope in my lifetime, they will allow this kind of medication, to be used in pain control. Many who use this substance already know it works for pain. Science needs to move a bit faster. Politics has alot to do with it too. I would use THC if it were legal in my state. I would rather take that than the opiate I use now. Too bad we are not allowed choice in the matter. Lets hope that research can catch up so that more people can be helped. ginnie
