Alzheimer’s Caused By Loss of Cannabinoid Pathways, Study Shows

“Early deficits in Alzheimer’s may be caused by blockage of the brain’s cannabinoids, according to new research out of Stanford University.  This interference with the brain’s cannabinoids may be the mechanism by which early memory deficits in Alzheimer’s are formed.  A 2013 study by researchers from Neuroscience Research Australia suggests an ingredient in marijuana called CBD could be beneficial. The team found that treatment with CBD led to drastic improvements in memory in mice genetically engineered to mimic Alzheimer’s disease. Besides the potential to combat Alzheimer’s symptoms, some studies suggest cannabinoids also hold promise in slowing progression of the disorder.”
