How Medical Cannabis Helps With Chronic Pain
Dr. Roni Sharon, MD | The Cannigma, Oct. 2019
“Cannabis doesn’t always help the pain directly. Sometimes it does, but the amazing thing about cannabis is that it actually allows patients to live their lives in a much fuller way.
It helps them sleep better. It helps them deal with the pain better. And it can help with so many things surrounding the underlying condition, so that when they wake up in the morning and go to sleep at night they’re living fuller, better-quality lives.”

How CBD Oil Affects Chronic Pain and Inflammation
Thomas DeLauer | Octagon Biolabs CBD, Aug. 2018
“Cytokines are signaling proteins that ultimately recruit inflammation to happen. Cytokines will trigger specific immune cells to release inflammation or actually even reduce inflammation, given the right circumstances. […] CBD actually modulates the cytokine production.”
