I can't see the video but I assume it is about the GW clinical study. It's not news and it is not sufficient. I have epilepsy and have been working on this for several years in my own amateur way with limited success. I read the GW report some time ago and eventually got it translated into how much plant material is required to produce their 10mg per Kg body weight dose. I would need to produce 12 pounds of bud a year. I've never grown that much and the commercial products come no where near that. I presume you know it is a predominately CBD mix of cannabinoids. To get that much commercially would cost a small fortune and I assume that's what GW will be charging when they get FDA approval.

GW pharma? and their patents? no.

Sounds like the CBD pharmaceutical trials for the recent FDA approval. A synthetic CBD was tested and approved. Same maker as Marinol. Garbage, compared to a cheap, full plant ethanol extraction.

Glad the kids found some relief though, seizures are a nightmare to go through. This study will also go a long way toward removing the shackles on cannabis.

Damn, Medfinder your link doesn't work. I really want to see that study. I know CBD works for seizures but getting it right from whole plant has been very difficult.

For sure glad some kids found some relief.
