Find Cannabis that May Help With Anorexia

Approximately 28.8 million Americans have been impacted by Anorexia or a similar eating disorder, according to the National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders. Many of these cases are often under-reported, and patients are rarely listed as underweight in these cases.

Anorexia and other similar conditions are often accompanied by substance abuse disorders and tend to be neurobiological. This is why some patients with eating disorders may not experience the appetite-stimulating effects of cannabis. However, in conjunction with talk therapy or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, cannabis may help improve the quality of life for these patients.
