The active compounds, called cannabinoids, are of particular interest in the medical world and they affect the body very uniquely. Since medical marijuana was introduced and legalized in California in 1996, we have come a long way with cannabis now being used to legally treat people with health problems in 38 states, three territories, and the District of Columbia.So what’s the deal with cannabis? With so much information out there, how do you know what’s right for you? What’s the difference between medical marijuana and some of the retail options out there? That’s what we are diving into today and I have two really great experts to take us through it.Dr. Nick Edgerton is a Naturopathic Physician and licensed acupuncturist who has a fantastic background in botanical medicine, from wildcrafting in Jamaica to his own backyard to nutrigenomics where he studies how nutrients and herbs impact gene expression.Dr. Craig Fasullo is also a Naturopathic Physician who addresses a broad range of conditions, including gastrointestinal and cardiovascular health, musculoskeletal pain, endocrine/hormone imbalance, and men’s health.
