Why do you need medical cannabis?  Are you ill?

Jennifer Selig ● 2303d

There are many people who can benefit from medical cannabis (CBD) in suitable doses.  But I suspect that for a lot more people it’s about as appealing as alcohol-free wine.

Reports suggest that vape stores and charity shops are signs of a decaying high street. CHR take note.

Thank you, but no I'm not ill, physically or mentally, this store is not for people who are ill otherwise it would be classed as a pharmacy. This store provides products which are therapeutic and holistic.Please do not be naive and think that this store is in any way shape or form drug related, that's just uneducated, the products in this store do not contain any THC's which is what makes a person 'high'.

If it's real medical cannabis you need a prescription which very few people in this country  have managed  to get. Otherwise it's CBD oil which is by no means proven to help with anything and some studies state is harmful. Holland  and Barrett have been selling it for years.

Beverley - the regulars on here are experts in everything even the things they know nothing about. 🤷‍♀️

And some people constantly make snide remarks while being completely clueless about everything

The store is the perfect place, perhaps, for people to come and understand what CBD REALLY is, and how it can benefit some people. For example, its not a 'vape shop' and properly extracted CBD is a premium, organic product. Best discuss it with an expert before judgement!

According to the press release: "Beleaf says they will offers a broad range of ethically-sourced premium brand extracts, cosmetics, VAPES and edibles with more than 100 product lines available for sale, including the only organically-grown product available in the UK."

So, not "medical" cannabis then!

Anne Brown ● 2302d

The term Medical Cannabis is misleading and untrue. The true medical grade cannabis has the CBD removed and the result is THC. This is wonderful for chronic pain relief, without suffering the side effects of pharma and it is not addictive.Sadly it is still illegal in most countries, even in The Netherlands. You wonder who holds the power here?

It all rots your teeth after time so I have been led to believe.

Janice Evans ● 2302d

It's not illegal in the UK (as per recent legislation) but very few medics will prescribe it, leaving parents with children with epilepsy and other fitting diseases in despair.

Claire Moran ● 2302d

Helene, cannabis with all the CBD removed, pure THC, would be extremely potent skunk.  Not what most people would call ‘true medical grade cannabis‘.

Alastair Banton ● 2302d

There is some evidence to suggest that cannabinoid agonists and antagonists and cannabinoid-related compounds may have therapeutic benefits in certain instances. However, the way that cannabinoids affect the human body is extremely complex. Cannabinoids do not only affect the body’s cannabinoid receptors but those that affect mood-altering hormones as well as those that affect inflammatory processes. Therapeutic cannabinoids should only be taken under medical supervision. Over the counter preparations openly on sale in the UK are only legal because they are so lacking in potency as to be virtually ineffective.Don’t waste your money on snake oil.
