Disease management and treatment can be tricky. Every patient, as well as every disease, will react differently from other patients or ailments. Everything from biological differences to metabolism can affect treatment. This ineffectiveness in treatment methods cannot be prevented because of the endless variations making many regimens a guessing game. With the life and comfort of so many patients hanging in the balance, it’s no wonder that medical professionals worldwide are always searching for new and improved treatments. In the case of medical marijuana, practitioners didn’t find something new; instead, they looked to one of the oldest medications known to man.
According to a 2007 article in the Journal of Natural Products, an estimated 70% of all new drugs introduced in the previous 25 years had been derived from natural products. With so many plant-based medicines on the market today, it shouldn’t be a surprise that marijuana was at one time the drug of choice for many ailments.
