Legitimising a Remedy

In this audio piece I explore the declining stigma around cannabis and how its interesting medical properties could help thousands.

I was inspired to make this piece after reading about the legalisation of CBD on November 1st and decided to take a deep dive into research on medical cannabis. 

Comment and let me know what you think about the situation. Should medical cannabis be more accessible? Do you think full legalisation is a good idea?

Really informative and well put together. Allows you to see a side to canibis that the news doesn't talk about and show you how it helps people to cope with there illnesses.

I think the idea of medical canibis is a good thing because legalising it or at least making it medically accessible will reduce the risk of people getting it illegally, and like you said having varying levels of CBD within it and not always knowing the extent of the effect it's having. Being able to have it medically could help people manage their pain or stress in a healthier way than having to also deal with the side effects of getting high and then feel the come down from that as well.

Canabis should not be legalised, it hasn't been researched enough and this will just be another way of telling young people that canabis is okay to smoke and the stench of it will fill our streets because people will use it for non medicinal reasons just because they can
