Telemedicine Medical Marijuana for Lewy Body Disease in Texas and Oklahoma

Lewy Body is one of the most common forms of dementia.

Researchers from Tulane University’s School of Medicine and the University of Texas worked together to research a patient with Lewy Body and the effects of MMJ.

They found that MMJ has been found to help with Lewy Body Dementia symptoms, which include agitation, irritability, improved cognition, and sleep.
