Unfortunately though, results from clinical studies have been inconclusive and conflicting.</p>\n<p>However, \"an open-label  observational study assessing the clinical effect of cannabis on motor  and non-motor symptoms of PD revealed significant improvement after treatment in tremor (P &#x3C; 0.001), rigidity(P = 0.004), and   bradykinesia (P &#x3C; 0.001).\"\n<a href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24614667\">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24614667</a></p>\n<p>Also, typical neuropathological features of Parkinson's include  degeneration of dopaminergic neurons; and several studies suggest that cannabis has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and other properties that could be neuroprotective -- which may explain some of the positive results some studies have show regarding cannabis and Parkinson's.\n<a href=\"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4926438/\">https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4926438/</a></p>\n<p>And although the research regarding cannabis and motor symptoms of PD has been conflicting, cannabis has been shown to mitigate many of the non-motor symptoms which accompany Parkinson's, such as insomnia, pain, anxiety and depression.</p>\n<p>Altogether, for most, I consider cannabis as a valuable adjunctive medicine for the treatment of Parkinson's,  which should improve the quality of life for most patients afflicted  with Parkinson's disease and may even slow the progression of the disease and reduce motor symptoms.</p>\n<p>drkim</p>\n<hr>\n<p>Unfortunately, there is no best cannabis product for any condition.  Everybody's situation is a bit different. However, I can provide you with products I would recommend to most people.</p>\n<p>For daytime use and/or for people averse to THC, I recommend the 18:1 formulations offered by Care By Design. I have no affiliation with them. However, I like that they use the whole plant when making their products, rather than isolating only THC and CBD; offer a variety of ratios; offer all routes of  administration, other than combustion; clearly label their products in mgs of THC and CBD per dose; and are  elatively easy to find.  </p>\n<p>Hope this helps!</p>\n<p>drkim</p>","timeToRead":1}},"defaultImage":{"childImageSharp":{"fluid":{"base64":"data:image/jpeg;base64,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","aspectRatio":1.5,"src":"/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/a07a5/question-default-image.jpg","srcSet":"/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/decd9/question-default-image.jpg 150w,\n/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/15aed/question-default-image.jpg 300w,\n/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/a07a5/question-default-image.jpg 600w,\n/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/701ee/question-default-image.jpg 800w","srcWebp":"/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/483a3/question-default-image.webp","srcSetWebp":"/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/e8bcc/question-default-image.webp 150w,\n/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/4fec1/question-default-image.webp 300w,\n/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/483a3/question-default-image.webp 600w,\n/static/1e164eb4ee29aff63b63675577d389d3/2ad7f/question-default-image.webp 800w","sizes":"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px"}}}},"pageContext":{"id":12112,"slug":"what-is-the-best-cbd-thc-product-for-parkinson-s","country":"US"}},"staticQueryHashes":["3949754563","4179947113","4202924991"]}
