  • Research has explored whether cannabis and cannabinoids can help induce and maintain remission, but results are mixed, showing potential benefits in reducing inflammation and some risks like dizziness, weakness, diarrhea, and a higher chance of surgery.
  • The study reviewed multiple clinical trials to evaluate cannabis's safety and effectiveness, focusing on outcomes like disease remission, relapse, inflammation markers, quality of life, and adverse effects.
