Used for the anti-inflammatory, increased in appetite for cancer and AIDS patients, and pain management effects (cbd's, cannabinoid) rather than non-steroidal pharmaceutical drugs ( ibuprofen, Naproxen, vicodin. ..etc) is acceptable in my opinion. It is also less harmful for the liver and the stomach lining. Everyone will have their own opinion about this, whether they are educated on the subject or not. It's up to each individual to figure out if this is right for them. Some people will use it for recreation others will actually use it for medical reasons.
