Fed-Funded Study Finds Increase In Medical Marijuana Patient Enrollments, Chronic Pain Most Common Reason
The state-legal medical marijuana programs nationwide have seen an uptick in the number of new patients enrolled since 2020, according to newly published federal research in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine. The study, conducted by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and the University of Michigan showed that there were 4.1 million registered medical cannabis patients in 2022 countrywide, compared to 3.1 million in 2020. That's a 33.3% increase over two years.

Science Confirms Safe, Effective Daily Dose Of CBD For Dogs - Long-Term And No Risks
A recent study published in Frontiers in Veterinary Science reveals that healthy dogs can safely consume cannabinoids like CBD, CBDA, and CBG daily with minimal risk over the long term. The study, which involved 32 healthy beagle dogs, showed that these cannabinoids were well-tolerated when given at a dose of 5 mg/kg body weight/day for 90 consecutive days. The National Animal Supplement Council (NASC) highlighted these findings, stating that different cannabidiols are safe for long-term use in healthy dogs. This research contributes to a growing body of evidence on the positive effects of cannabis on animals. Previous studies have shown that CBD can reduce pain and improve mobility in arthritic dogs, as well as relieve stress in dogs during car travel or when left alone.
