How Medical Marijuana Can Help Multiple Sclerosis (MS)
Medical marijuana has been shown to help patients find relief from certain MS symptoms. Improvements were also seen in body pain, sleep quality, and spasms. Inflammation of neural tissue is a major factor for MS, and medical marijuana has been shown to have a positive effect on this. Several other investigations have exposed a link between medical marijuana and lower rates of depression among people with MS.
