Using Cannabis for Digestive Health

Cannabis has been widely used for digestive health, particularly for managing nausea, vomiting, and appetite loss. THC is the primary compound known for its anti-nausea effects. It interacts with cannabinoid receptors in the brain and gut to help reduce symptoms and stimulate appetite — a benefit particularly valuable for people undergoing chemotherapy or those with conditions like Crohn’s disease. CBD may also provide digestive benefits by reducing inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. Products such as tinctures, capsules, or even infused teas offer discreet options for consumption. While cannabis is not a cure-all, it can be a supportive element of a broader wellness plan. It’s recommended to consult a healthcare provider, especially for chronic GI conditions, to avoid interactions with other medications.
