Ep. 36 - A Canadian veteran's journey to recovery with medical cannabis

September 20, 2017

On this episode of The Cannabis Show, Canadian military veteran Mike Parsons shares his inspiring story in using medical cannabis to treat symptoms related to a hip injury and PTSD, weaning himself off a "cocktail" of pharmaceuticals, and reconnecting with himself, friends and family.


"I was on about nine different medications for about 10 years at the time," Parsons recalls. "It was a bumpy road... There was a lot of different types, everything from anti-depressants, mood stabilizers, to things for pain relief."


Cannabis, he adds, "brought me back to who I was."


Also, Hart and Basil square off in another round of Strain vs. Strain, with Hart trumpeting Hydropothecary's CBD-rich Honeydew strain and Basil champions Medreleaf's high-CBD strain AviDekel.
