Some childhood diseases are difficult to treat — autism and epilepsy among them. When Vermont-based pediatric nurse Vanessa Peck saw what a single dose of CBD did for one her young patients, her curiosity was piqued, and she soon was on board. Today she runs Elevated Healing, and helps parents learn about how CBD and cannabis can help address very difficult childhood diseases, safely and effectively. Listen and learn how:

• CBD — and sometimes  THC — can help with autism, ADHD, epilepsy and other conditions.
• The medical profession is slowly beginning to accept cannabis as a legitimate medicine.
• Weight-based dosing and 1:1 CBD to THC ratios can help mitigate intoxicating effects.
• Vanessa and others are working to overcome challenges we still face in gaining greater acceptance for medicinal cannabis.
• Vanessa is working to help parents anywhere learn about how cannabis can help young patients.
