Cannabis and Anxiety:

“Chronic Anxiety affects the mind as well as the body”. Anxiety is described as “the sensation of fear and/or panic and makes people feel nervous and fearful about certain life situations”. The book points out that “clinical studies and growing evidence suggest that CBD has powerful anti-anxiety properties”. Although inhalation is the quickest method of treating anxiety, for more long-term treatment edibles, tinctures and transdermal products like ointments, patches and gels might work better as they last longer.

All in all, Cannabis For Seniors is 196 pages, within 22 chapters, and discusses so much more that what I have covered here today. Everything from the history of cannabis prohibition, myths about cannabis and even how to cook with and make diy cannabis medications is covered in this book. I found it to be very informative, detailed and a very easy read. You can find Dr. Potter’s book at Amazon, on paperback, for $12.88 and I highly recommend it.
