Culinary cannabis offers a lot more than the brownie!
Review by Gayle B. Olson
In 1984 I was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease, an incurable affliction of the digestive system. Many decades later, and after dozens of pharmaceutical trials later my primary physician suggested medical cannabis. Thankfully we finally found a therapy that worked, keeping my disease in check for the most part of three years and counting. In my situation I have discovered that consuming cannabis edibles works best as a delivery system.
