Chrones and mmj

    Hey guys just wondering if there is any other chrones patients being treated on here. I will be giving treatment to a guy with chrones and wonder what others thoughts are on strains and what not. I really want to help him out the best way.

    Thank you

    It's "Crohns"

    I use MMJ for Ulcerative Colitis which is very similar. Indica dominant strains work much better than sativa dominant strains.

    For me, stress is a huge contributing factor in any flare ups I have, so mmj is a lifesaver. Plus it's the best anti-inflammatory out there IMO

    I can't help you with the strains, but collect medical studies. I think your patient may be interested in these!
