Cannabidiol – CBD for short – is a component of cannabis that can help with pain, inflammation, anxiety, but also with diseases such as migraines, diabetes and depression. In contrast to the intoxicating cannabis active ingredient THC, it is legally available.
Leonard Leinow is a pioneer in CBD research. Together with the cultural anthropologist Juliana Birnbaum, he will present the latest scientific findings and let numerous medical professionals with experience in CBD therapy have their say.
