Medical Cannabis Strains
Our main interest in cannabis is related to the medical properties of the plant. Over the years we have collated a lot of information that relates to how different cannabis strains can help with various medical disorders. This information is constantly updated and we are always looking to hear from medical users that have found positive results from using a certain strain to help them offset symptoms or pains. Please contact us if you feel you have information that could help others with their medical problems.
“Different Strains for Different Pains”
One type of medical cannabis strain does not conquer all ailments. Depending on what your symptoms are, some cannabis strains can be vastly more effective than another. That’s why we have compiled this handy guide to help medical cannabis users find the ideal strain for their specific condition. The following lists we have tried to sort into two categories. The first lists common complaints or illnesses of medical patients and the cannabis strains that patients have found to be beneficial to those symptoms. The second list shows some of the strains first and some of the benefits that users have found from using those strains.
If we had to bracket things as narrowly as possible then would have to say:
Indica – Heavy stone – Best for pain relief, insomnia and anxiety
Sativa – Uplifting high – Best for nausea, depression and loss of appetite.
