A BETTER SOLUTION FOR MEDICAL MARIJUANA

To the editor:

For those of us who need pain relief, weed is not the answer.
Marijuana has two main components: THC and cannabidiol. THC is the
psychoactive component, and the cannabidiol component is the true
medical marijuana.

If we could educate people about this fact and lead our government to
approve cannabidiol, it could be made into a tablet that could be
ingested like aspirin. Doing that would diminish the hype and
resistance that goes along with the legalization of marijuana. above.
Understand the message. Be motivated by the wisdom and scared to death
by the warning.
