Autism spectrum disorderAutism is a way some people's brains work differently. It can make them see, hear, and feel the world in unique ways. People with autism might find it hard to talk with others or make friends sometimes, but they can also be really good at other things, like art, music, or remembering lots of details! The autism spectrum is like a big rainbow with many colors. Each color represents how autism can affect people in different ways. Some people might need more help with things like talking or playing, while others might need less help. But everyone on the spectrum is special and important in their own way! https://www.nimh.nih.gov/health/topics/autism-spectrum-disorders-asd#:~:text=Autism%20spectrum%20disorder%20(ASD)%20is,first%202%20years%20of%20life.

How does Medical Cannabis or Low THC Oil Help with EpilepsyEpilepsy, Seizures & Medical Cannabis (LOW THC OIL) Understanding Epilepsy: Epilepsy is a neurological condition that causes repeated seizures. These seizures are sudden bursts of electrical activity in the brain that can change how a person behaves, moves, or feels. How Medical Cannabis Can Help: Medical cannabis, especially a compound called CBD, has shown promise in helping control seizures in people with epilepsy. It works by calming down the brain's signals and supporting balance in the nervous system. Benefits of CBD: Does not cause a "high" May reduce seizure frequency and severity Helpful in cases where other medications haven’t worked THC vs. CBD: CBD: Non-psychoactive, calming THC: Psychoactive, may worsen seizures in some cases Talk to Your Doctor: Medical cannabis is not a cure, but it may help some people when other treatments fail. Always consult a qualified provider to see if it’s right for you. In most cases, a person with epilepsy is already on prescribed medications. It is necessary to consult with qualified physicians to determine a plan to incorporate medical cannabis into your current treatment. US420DOC can help!
