How often have we heard, “More research is needed,” from those who would prefer to see no change in policies that should be informed by science? From climate denial to cannabis prohibition, the demand for absolute scientific certainty is a call for inaction. It begs the question: When is there “enough” research? How about not enough to eliminate all uncertainties, but enough to recommend medical treatment or change policy?

This might sound weird and ridiculous but contrary to popular opinion, cannabis can help asthmatics in many ways. I couldn’t believe it myself when I first started research for this article, but, as it seems, compounds found in cannabis can relieve certain acute and life-threatening symptoms of asthma.

The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s.

After a judge ruled in Florigrown’s favor, the state appealed. What’s next? A broad legal battle has marinated in a Florida courthouse for nearly a year, and now the state’s House of Representatives is inserting itself into the proceedings.

Guest post by Lanny Swerdlow, RN, LNC. Due to its psychoactive properties, THC gets all the hype, but it is only one of about 60 cannabinoids found in marijuana. These complex organic molecules found in cannabis have a profound effect on our bodies if for no other reason than we naturally produce cannabinoids, called endocannabinoids, for a virtual cornucopia of physiological processes.
