1.2 Cannabis & Pain pt. 1
Episode description
On episode 2 of Smoke N' Science we talk about pain. Pain is the number one use for medicinal Cannabis in the United States, and this is no accident. Cannabis can change the way pain signals are sent in our brains and provide some much-needed relief, especially for chronic pain sufferers! In today's episode we begin to talk about pain, what it is, the different kinds of pain, and what's happening in our brain when we experience pain. Join us on this journey into our endocannabinoid system to learn more- we promise it won't be painful to listen to!
Up next: in part 2 we'll dive into individual disorders where pain plays a crucial role and the different methods of administration that can be helpful for pain!
