Medical Cannabis

If so, you’re not alone. Over 69 million Americans
live with chronic pain. Another 40 million suffer
from social anxiety and 19.7 million more struggle
with some form of addiction.

Many of these people rely on over-the-counter
medicines, addictive pharmaceuticals and costly
therapy to remedy their problems.

And others just “deal with it.”

But if you live in Missouri, you don’t have to let
aches and pains, crippling anxiety, or addiction
stop you from living your life.

you don’t have to just “deal with it.” There is a
better option.

Medical marijuana, a natural medicine, has been
used by millions to treat chronic pain and other
debilitating diseases.

Just how many patients rely on it?

an estimated 4,375,822 legal patients in the
U.S. treat their symptoms with medical marijuana.

Some are afflicted with devastating diseases
like HIV, AIDs, and cancer.

many more are relatively good health
who just need a little help with things like:

Chronic Pain

Medical marijuana has been shown to decrease
various forms of chronic pain.

In a recent study, patients ranked pain relief from
medical marijuana at 7 out of 10.

And these people suffered from:

• Neck and back pain
• Neuropathic pain
• Post-surgical pain
• Abdominal pain
• Trauma or injury pain
• Arthritis
• Cancer pain
• Menstrual pain
• Migraines and chronic headaches
• Fibromyalgia
• IBS
• Diabetes

For some, it stopped the pain completely. Others
reported a significant change in the way they
experienced pain.

almost all the people studied said the same
thing: medical marijuana reduced their pain enough
to let them get on with their day.

Anxiety

In another recent study, 58.1% of people said they
use medical marijuana to treat anxiety.

researchers have confirmed anxiety reduction
as a primary benefit of medical marijuana.

When used in proper amounts, THC and CBD (the main chemical compounds in marijuana) help to:

• Relieve anxiety
• Treat panic attacks
• Improve relaxation

Others have noted it helps them feel “normal,”
avoid negative thoughts, and lets them function
better throughout the day.

for many patients, that means leading a more
productive, anxiety-free life.

Addiction

Medical marijuana has also been promoted as an
alternative to highly addictive opioids.

Often, people recovering from surgery or injuries
are prescribed dangerous pills to reduce their pain.

As a result, many people become addicted
and dependent on these drugs.

medical marijuana has become a favorable alternative to opioids because:

• You can’t overdose on it
• You won’t become addicted
• You can treat pain without the use of pharmaceuticals

In many ways, the benefits of medical marijuana
far outweigh those of opioids like oxycodone and
hydrocodone.

patients trust it because it’s a non-habit
forming way to cope with discomfort.

If you struggle with chronic pain, anxiety, addiction or other
debilitating illnesses, medical marijuana might be right for you.
