info_outlineInnovative healing is saving lives. Cannabis, CBD, and other plant-based therapies have called so many back from the edge of illness, disease, and despair. Today you’re going to hear the panel of experts as they close their conference with personal stories of microdosing, connecting with patients, and lasting solutions.

They discuss clinical research priorities, proving the effectiveness of treatments, and targeting the demographic of potential patients aging out of a service career, all in the name of giving first responders hope to heal their brain injuries and trauma. Tune in for the conclusion of this three-part episode and come away with a better understanding of how psychedelic medicine is changing, and saving, the lives of first responders.
What You’ll Learn:
- What clinicians need to do to ‘cut the fat’ of plant-based medicine and prioritize patient safety
- How psilocybin can help end-of-life patients connect with their health providers and heal their mental trauma
- Why convincing mainstream populations of the promise of plant-based medicine is so important to the industry
- And so much more!
