A $1.5 million National Institutes of Health grant will help Temple University researchers study more effective ways to treat multiple sclerosis (MS).

The research uses synthetic (man-made) cannabinoids based on chemicals obtained from the marijuana plant.

Why feel guilty? it's like, the one drug in the world that doesn't kill people.

Don't even think about feeling guilty Daisy3, let him try it and see if it helps at all. It seems with any drug and MS the only way to know is try it for yourself.
