My "Happy New Year" Medical post - TreatingYourself.COM Online Community

It's my "medical" posts on a nice, sensible, little site for medical cannabis. We have to educate our doctors- med school certainly doesn't! - Granny:hippy:
I just read through the first link you provided (thank you very much by the way, i've seen your medical links but simply have not come
across any about blood pressure), about the man who separated the psychotropic effects from the medicinal cannabinoids.

My question is, even with the psychotropic effects of regular cannabis (aka, the stuff i get from my dealer), does it still pack the benefits
like relaxing my blood vessels and lowering blood pressure? Or do those medicinal properties have to be separated and used separately to work?
