Medical Cannabis as a Tool in your Overall Health | Carey Clark
Friday Jul 09, 2021
Friday Jul 09, 2021
In this episode, Greg and Carey discuss what got Carey interested in learning about and utilizing cannabis therapeutically in her own practice and creating an entire program around it. They talk about the human endocannabinoid system and its effects on our health, including ways of modulating the endocannabinoid system without using cannabis. They talk about Carey's presentation on Cannabis Care 101 at the upcoming Pacific Symposium this Fall. You will hear Carey's thoughts on the recreational use and what the literature say about safety, long term effects, and age-related issues, for example, teen use. Finally, we learn about the Pacific College medical cannabis certificate program.
