Summary:
Medicinal cannabis is shrouded in controversy. How does it affect the body? Is it helpful or harmful? A&E doctor Javid Abdelmoneim looks for answers as he investigates the latest research. He meets the epilepsy patient responsible for changing the law around medicinal cannabis in the UK, witnessing the remarkable effects it has on his condition. He visits Israel to learn why they have used cannabis as a medicine for over 20 years. At King's College London, he finds a new study linking cannabis to mental health problems, and he takes part in a groundbreaking trial showing the effects of cannabis on the brain.
