Introduction
There are at least two major active chemicals in marijuana that researchers think have medicinal applications (there are up to 79 known active compounds). Those two are cannabidiol (CBD) — which seems to impact the brain mostly without a high— and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) — which has pain relieving (and other) properties.
Medical Marijuana
Pain Management
According to the NASEM report, studies show that both inhaled marijuana (vaporized or smoked) and cannabinoid compounds that come from the cannabis plant (like THC, mostly responsible for the high, or cannabidiol, CBD, one of the most medically promising of the hundreds of chemical compounds found in marijuana) work for pain.
COMPASSIONATE
When we feel strong and well, it is easy to forget about our own frailties and also the misfortunes, troubles, and sicknesses of others. We are only as strong as is our compassion for those who are weak. For in strength must come the power of understanding and the wisdom to act with kindness.
PROFESSIONAL
Professionals are good at their jobs. They have mastered their job skills. That mastery builds confidence with clients as well as colleagues. Honors commitments. Being responsible certainly means being a person others can count on — getting the job done right, and getting it done on time
CONFIDENCE
By honoring who you are and what you truly prefer in life, you’re creating an environment for confidence. You’re allowing yourself to be comfortable and express yourself. In turn, you attract the right people, opportunities and more into your life by becoming confident with yourself.
KNOWLEDGEABLE
Cannabidiol (CBD) is used to treat certain conditions such as childhood epilepsy, a disorder that causes a child to have violent seizures. Therefore, scientists have been specially breeding marijuana plants and making CBD in oil form for treatment purposes. Knowledge is power!
