Hemp, Cannabis and the Endo-Cannabinoid System: YOUR DOCTOR'S GUIDE TO THE NEWLY LEGALIZED PERSONAL MEDICINE (Dr. Jeffers)

By Nancy Jeffers

Dr. Jeffers has spent the past 10 years extensively researching this topic, and has personally worked with over 1800 patients who have used medicinal marijuana, and summarizes her findings in this most timely book, given the legalization of cannabis in California in the 2016 election, FDA approval of plant-derived CBD for Lennox Gastaut and Dravet syndromes June 25, 2018, and the recent recognition of the serious illness related to vaping VALI. Readers will find detailed, unbiased, science-based information about the real facts surrounding hemp, cannabis and the endo-cannabinoid system, including an uniquely extensive explanation of the cannabinoid receptors, THC, CBD, and terpenes, cutting out all of the misinformation from mouse studies. With the second edition, there is a bonus explanation of pain syndromes, asthma, Qi, Traditional Chinese Medicine, and homeopathy, giving a fairly comprehensive guide for self-help. Because of the increasing interest in THC as an anticancer medicine, a new extensive section on cancer has been included. The third edition gives specific detailed scientific background and advice regarding VALI and the cardiac complications attributed to cannabis.About the AuthorDr. Jeffers started out as a classically trained allopathic physician, completed residency training in Internal Medicine and became ABIM board certified.
