Science Brief: Parkinson's disease PDF Print E-mail

According to a review by scientists of the University of Frankfurt, Germany, cannabinoids possess a therapeutic potential in Parkinson's disease. They may alleviate some symptoms (levodopa-induced dyskinesia) and due to their neuroprotective properties might slow the progression of the disease. (Source: Lastres-Becker I, Fernandez-Ruiz J.
