Cannabis Helps with Seizures and Relief.

In recent years, there has been a growing body of research and anecdotal evidence suggesting that cannabis can have medicinal benefits, particularly in the treatment of seizures and providing relief from various ailments. The podcast "Grandma and Her Gummies" explores real-life cannabis stories and lessons for safer cannabis use, shedding light on the potential of cannabis as a form of medicine.

The podcast begins by introducing its purpose: to provide a fun and educational platform for discussing real-life cannabis stories and lessons for safer cannabis use. The host, Steve, emphasizes that the focus is not on getting high but rather on improving one's quality of life with safe cannabis products and innovation. He aims to share the latest scientific research, tips, and resources to educate listeners about cannabis and its potential benefits.

The podcast then introduces Jenn Meyers, a marketing executive and a full-time mom to a special needs son named Zach. Jenn shares her journey of discovering cannabis as a potential solution for her son's epileptic seizures and her own pain relief after knee surgery.

Jenn's son, Zach, had been experiencing seizures since he was a year old. Despite being on medication, he continued to have breakthrough seizures and developmental delays. As he grew older, his seizures became more severe and dangerous. Frustrated with the limited options provided by traditional medicine, Jenn decided to explore cannabis as a potential solution. She explains that her initial experience with cannabis was limited, and she turned to it as an alternative after conducting her own research.

CBD oil helps with Seizures.

Through her research, Jenn found a CBD oil solution from Colorado that she started to introduce to Zach. The results were remarkable. Zach's seizures became less frequent, his behavior became more stable, and he showed increased attentiveness. They administer one dropper full of the 60-milligram version in the morning and one dropper full in the evening, with consistent and miraculous results. It is worth noting that Zach has been using CBD oil for six years, and the dosage has remained the same throughout this period. This consistency speaks to the effectiveness of CBD oil in managing seizures without the need for increased dosages over time.

Encouraged by these positive changes, Jenn informed Zach's specialist about their use of cannabis, and surprisingly, the doctor was supportive. This was further supported by their recent updated EEG results for Zach, which showed zero abnormal activities during the test. Over time, they were able to wean Zach off most of his medications, and he now relies primarily on cannabis for seizure control.

The podcast also highlights the significance of Charlotte's Web, a strain of cannabis named after Charlotte Figi, a young girl who experienced remarkable improvements in her seizures through the use of CBD oil. Charlotte's story ultimately led to the development of Epidiolex, the first FDA-approve
