Aging Well With Cannabis The New Book From Dr Peter Grinspoon

About this episode

What happens when a Harvard-trained physician rethinks everything he believed about cannabis, stigma, Society's views on cannabis are evolving rapidly. Now legalized in 39 states, marijuana is increasingly making headway in the medical field, particularly amongst senior citizens. I would like to offer my client, Dr. Peter Grinspoon, a board-certified addiction specialist at Massachusetts General Hospital, as well as an Instructor in Medicine at Harvard Medical School, to demystify medical cannabis and provide expert guidance on safe and effective use to alleviate common aging symptoms. As a credentialed primary care physician and cannabis specialist, Dr. Grinspoon addresses the "why" and "how" of cannabis use using science-backed evidence.  With sixty million Americans over sixty-five, many are seeking alternatives to often-harmful pharmaceuticals. Medical marijuana helps with multiple symptoms of aging, such as chronic pain, anxiety, and insomnia, with relatively low toxicity if used properly. In Dr. Grinspoon's upcoming book, Aging Well with Cannabis: Feel Better, Sleep Better and Live Better with Marijuana and CBD,  he helps "canna-curious' seniors, family members, and caregivers by providing practical instructions, real-life case studies, and a balanced view of the benefits and risks of cannabis and CBS.  He guides readers through the buying experience, legal considerations, and becoming a certified medical marijuana patient, emphasizing doctor-patient communication for safe and effective use.
