How Medical Marijuana Can Help Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)

There are many receptors throughout the body that react to cannabis, and some of those receptors are in the gastrointestinal tract. When these receptors come into contact with cannabis, symptoms such as pain are often relieved. Studies have also shown that marijuana use can help reduce inflammation in the intestines, which is a significant driver of IBD itself. In addition to relieving inflammation and pain, this treatment could help reduce weight loss and help patients get better sleep to reduce fatigue.
