Marijuana and IBS
Marijuana is currently being studied as a tool to provide relief for IBS patients.
While not a treatment for IBS, marijuana may help to ease three of the main side effects experienced by patients including depression, diarrhea, and stomach pain.
The mood-boosting effects of marijuana can combat depression, while also slowing down the speed at which food passes through your body to minimize diarrhea and stomach cramping.
