How Getting a MMJ Card Works
Getting a Medical Card is easy, and the benefits of getting a MMJ Card include: paying almost 25% less in taxes, access to higher quantity mg products and purchases, ability to grow your own plants, legal access for those under the age of 18 who have serious medical conditions, and a treatment regimen and education about what products, dose, and treatment regimen is right for you.
DID YOU KNOW?
Like with most plants and compounds used for medicinal, spiritual, or lifestyle purposes, using plant medicine for medicinal purposes requires education.
The identification of the chemical structure of cannabis components and the possibility of obtaining its pure constituents were related to a significant increase in scientific interest in such plant, since 1965.
This interest was renewed in the 1990's with the description of cannabinoid receptors and the identification of an endogenous cannabinoid system in the brain. Now, a new and more consistent cycle of the use and normalization of the cannabis plant (and its many cannabinoid and plant compounds) as medication begins as treatment effectiveness and safety is starting to be scientifically proven.
