“Cannabis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis… Significant advances have increased our understanding of the molecular mechanisms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)… It appears that a number of abnormal physiological processes occur simultaneously in this devastating disease. Ideally, a multidrug regimen… would be required to comprehensively address the known pathophysiology of ALS.REMARKABLY, CANNABIS APPEARS to have activity in all of those areas. Preclinical data indicate that cannabis has POWERFUL antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective effects… Based on the currently available scientific data, it is reasonable to think that cannabis might significantly slow the progression of ALS, potentially extending LIFE expectancy and substantially reducing the overall burden of the disease.”
