Can someone provide me with a link that explains medical MJ for use for Alzheimer's?
I have a relative who was just diagnosed having Alzheimer's. I want to bone up on the facts before I mention trying MJ to slow the progression. I am a strong believer in medical MJ, even though my state is not. I want to know the facts before I let him know of my support for medical MJ. Thank you. |

it basically comes from it's neurogenesis attribute.
cannabinoids induce neurogenesis in areas of the brain in which cannabinoid receptors are present (which is almost all areas . . ., especially the hippocampus and frontal cortex) those two areas of brain are the ones deteriorated by alzheimers, cannabis works against this by being neuroprotective and having neurogenesis. http://www.jci.org/articles/view/25509/version/1 that should be all the evidence you need. good luck.
