marijuana gives me a LOT of relief from severe degenerative arthritis ... I have read that studies show the CBDs are strong anti-inflammatories ... certain strains have higher levels of CBDs, and most any plant can be flowered longer, to degrade the THC into CBD ... just harvest as the trichomes are mostly amber, and you will have higher levels of CBD, and strong pain relief (a bit of a couchlock situation, usually) ... :smokin:
