Cannabis Revealed – Dr Bonni Goldstein

Did you know you have a widespread receptor system that interacts with the compounds in cannabis? Cannabis Revealed is the only book written by a medical cannabis specialist, explaining the science behind the use of this amazingly therapeutic plant and describing in easy-to-understand detail the recently discovered endocannabinoid system, involved in almost every human physiologic process. Although 28 states have medical cannabis laws, most physicians are reluctant to discuss how this plant may be beneficial to health. Over 4 million people in the U.S. are healing difficult-to-treat illnesses with cannabis medicine. This book is an educational tool for patients and their loved ones who have not found answers with conventional medicines.

Written by Bonni Goldstein, M.D., a well-respected practicing physician in California, and owner and Medical Director of Canna-Centers, this book explains the scientific research for over 28 chronic medical conditions for which cannabis is being used with positive results. Having helped thousands of suffering patients – including children – find relief with cannabis, Dr. Goldstein shares her expertise and years of clinical hands-on experience in chapters like How to Use Cannabis as MedicineThe Safety Profile of Cannabis, and Medical Risks of Using Cannabis, as well as true stories of how cannabis medicine has improved the lives of her seriously ill patients.

As medical cannabis laws continue to evolve, it is more vital than ever for patients suffering from life-changing medical conditions to understand the benefits of this plant in an honest, medicine-based perspective. Educational, practical and comprehensive, Cannabis Revealed exposes the truth behind cannabis so patients can make informed decisions and improve the quality of their lives.

“A major contribution from a leading physician on the front lines of the medical marijuana revolution. Dr. Bonni Goldstein’s book is a must-read for anyone who seeks to understand the healing potential and practical application of therapeutic cannabis.” – Martin A Lee, director of Project CBD and author of Smoke Signals

THE SURVIVORS GUIDE TO MEDICAL CANNABIS – REGINA NELSON PHD

The Survivor’s Guide to Medical Cannabis is Dr. Regina Nelson’s follow-up to Amazon’s top-selling book, ‘The eCS Therapy Companion Guide’ (2015). It is an excellent patient resource and physician reference guide that has only been improved. As Nelson shares much has changed in the last three years and this excellent guide has more cannabis survivor stories. Nelson describes the endocannabinoid system (eCS) and phytocannabinoids (the cannabis sativa plant) in layman’s terms. She helps readers understand the importance of medical cannabis and how it can be helpful, but she doesn’t promise a cure. Instead, she describes in-depth how patients are using cannabis for nearly 100 terminal and chronic conditions; she even shares her own patient journey. Nelson has a direct but entertaining style and her science is well-referenced and on-target. She is not a medical doctor, but a social scientist and medical cannabis patient. Additionally, she is an International Educator and Researcher. ‘The Survivor’s Guide to Medical Cannabis’ has been extended to include a short chapter on sexual health as Dr. Nelson has recently announced she will be leading a cannabis product and sexual health study. For more information on Dr. Nelson, her books, or the Plant a Seed for Cannabis Education Tour visit www.myecstherapy.org. The eCS Therapy Center is a national 501C3 organization Nelson founded in 2015.
