Our video series Cannabis Conversations interviews Dr. Ethan Russo on clinical endocannabinoid deficiency and ways to target the endocannabinoid system for therapeutic benefit.

Greg Gerdeman, assistant professor of Biology at Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, Florida, recently spoke at the Annual Meeting of the Congress of Clinical Rheumatology on cannabinoid treatment for rheumatic diseases.

The discovery of the endocannabinoid system has breathtaking implications for nearly every area of medicine, spawning a revolution in medical science.

This study examines the current knowledge of physiological and clinical effects of THC and CBD and presents a rationale for their combination in pharmaceutical preparations. Cannabinoid and vanilloid receptor effects as well as non-receptor mechanisms are also explored.
