Most people who use medicinal cannabis tend to use it to counteract the symptoms of a long-term chronic condition, rather than as a way to take care of their immune system to maintain their health. While research on the benefits of cannabis for the immune system is quite rare, there are early indications that seem to suggest that there may be some benefits.
Research in San Francisco seems to suggest that cannabinoids may help the functioning of the ECS (endocannabinoid system). To make this as simple as possible, this is a system of receptors (CB1 and CB2) that are located around the body. Endocannabinoids are able to help maintain the proper functioning of the ECS, thus maintaining your health, as well as helping to counteract any pain you may experience as part of an ongoing chronic condition.
If your immune system becomes unbalanced for any reason, then there are problems that are harmful to your health. For example, MS is an autoimmune disease caused in part by an unbalanced immune system, so if the immune system can be balanced with cannabis, could we see a reduction in MS? It certainly seems possible.
Cannabis also has long-lasting anti-inflammatory properties that are well known. This is why it is so good at alleviating arthritis symptoms, according to https://cannabis.net. Inflammation also occurs when your body is exposed to dangerous toxins, and cannabis is able to respond to inflammation by binding to receptors to reduce this inflammatory response. If you suffer from inflammation on a regular basis, you will quickly notice the benefits of using cannabis to manage and reduce these levels of inflammation.
Researchers also seem to believe that cannabis can play a crucial role in the treatment of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, but also for more common conditions such as Crohn’s disease.
Have you used cannabis to help your immune system stay healthy? It may not be a viable way to maintain your immune system for some, but if you are healthy and willing to take the plunge, tell us how you are doing. We also recommend that you visit your local dispensary for help in selecting the best strain for your personal use if you are unsure of which strain to use. They will be able to offer the best advice.
