'''Why natural therapeutics''': In the Spring of '''2017''' [[User:Jukeboksi|my]] late dad, Mauri Heikkurinen (RIP) fell ill with [[w:Acute myeloid leukemia|Acute myeloid leukemia]] (AML). I had heard on a cursory level that cannabinoids could help with cancer so I started doing a little research on how CBD oil could help my dad's condition. The natural therapeutics article grew out of that. Dad passed away in September 2017, but I am hopeful that the information in the article can help people find relief from natural therapeutics for their condition.

Cannabis has been found to be beneficial for [[w:Alzheimer's disease|Alzheimer's]] sufferers. Especially true this is for THC which inhibits the forming of toxic [[w:Amyloid beta|beta]] [[w:amyloid|amyloid]] protein plaque on braincells which causes the deteriation in Alzheimer's disease.
