About this Webinar
Cannabis has been used for years to treat traumatic brain injuries and mental health conditions, but did you know that researchers are investigating cannabis as a treatment for Dementia and Alzheimer’s associated symptoms?
Recently published pre-clinical research is indicating that CBD can protect certain brain cells from pathological mechanisms present in Alzheimer’s disease and can promote neuronal cell growth in the hippocampus. With life expectancy increasing it's more important than ever to investigate cannabinoids as a potential therapy and a tool to improve quality of life in later years.
Learn about on-going clinical research, how cannabis affects the brain, and tips for better brain health from Dr. Dung “Iggy” Trinh, MD.
