Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) is a broad umbrella term that covers conditions and illnesses with chronic or recurring immune response and inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. IBD includes disease like (but not limited to) Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn’s disease. These diseases carry debilitating symptoms such as abdominal pain, cramping, and loss of appetite.
Medical marijuana can do a great deal to alleviate those symptoms and side effects. Marijuana is known for its fantastic use as a pain reliever and appetite enhancer, but much more than that, marijuana has been shown in experimental evidence that it can be useful for treating intestinal inflammation. More studies must be done for this treatment but medical marijuana is proven to be highly effective of treating other symptoms of IBD such as pain and loss of appetite.
