An engaging, authoritative, and accessible guide to using cannabis
for wellness. Including a quick-reference chart to key cannabis
strains and their health benefits, this book is one you'll want to
keep close at hand. Considered "magic" in ancient medicinal
circles, cannabis has a true, documented history of healing. Not
only does it contain the restorative plant nutrient cannabidiol, or
CBD, which is gaining stature as an antidote for various conditions
from pain and nausea to arthritis and post-traumatic stress,
cannabis also carries some 100 other cannabinoid nutrients that
heal, including the once-banished psychoactive but powerfully
medicinal THC. Barbara Brownell Grogan and Dr. Mary Clifton, two
experts on cannabis, give newcomers the crucial knowledge they need
to begin their healing regimen safely. Because different strains
work for different people in different ways, the cannabis plant is
far from "one size fits all." Cannabis for Health discusses the
various types and potencies, and what healing benefits each offers.
It focuses on some high-profile strains--including
power-healers--how they address 30 key conditions, and how they
have served others. As this is neither a cookbook nor a dosing
book, it relies on testimonials by users and physicians to guide
people in their choices.
Can a person literally die of loneliness? Is there a connection between
the ability to express emotions and Alzheimer's disease? Is there such
a thing as a 'cancer personality'?
With compassion, warmth and empathy, Dr Gabor Maté draws on deep
scientific research and his acclaimed clinical work to provide the
answers to critical questions about the mind-body link - and
illuminates the role that stress and our emotional makeup play in an
array of common diseases.
When the Body Says No:
- Explores the role of the mind-body link in conditions and diseases
such as arthritis, cancer, diabetes, heart disease, irritable bowel
syndrome and multiple sclerosis.
- Shares dozens of enlightening case studies and personal and moving
stories, including those of people such as Lou Gehrig (ALS), Betty Ford
(breast cancer), Ronald Reagan (Alzheimer's), Gilda Radner (ovarian
cancer) and Lance Armstrong (testicular cancer)
- Reveals 'The Seven A's of Healing': principles in healing and the
prevention of illness from hidden stress
