Cannabis and Inflammation- A Gentler Way to Calm the Fire
Chronic inflammation is at the root of many conditions — from arthritis and back pain to heart disease and autoimmune disorders.
Many people rely on NSAIDs like:
Ibuprofen
Naproxen
Aspirin
While effective, long-term use can increase risk of:
• Stomach irritation
• Ulcers
• GI bleeding
• Kidney strain
🌿 Cannabis works differently.
Cannabinoids like:
Cannabidiol
Tetrahydrocannabinol
don’t just “block” inflammation — they help modulate the immune system through the body’s endocannabinoid system.
That means supporting balance rather than simply suppressing symptoms.
For many patients, this can mean:
✔️ Reduced inflammation
✔️ Improved pain control
✔️ Better sleep
✔️ Fewer GI side effects compared to chronic NSAID use
Curious how this works and who it may be appropriate for?
