    This interesting article about Seniors and Cannabis by our sponsor, George at Vault Seeds is worth reading:
    How Medical Cannabis in the UK Is Helping Seniors Live Healthier, Happier Lives

    Here's an excerpt;
    "Unlike the US, where cannabis is widely accessible but unevenly regulated, the UK ensures every prescription is tailored to individual needs. Products undergo rigorous testing, guaranteeing both safety and efficacy. A study from the UK Medical Cannabis Registry revealed that 45.4% of chronic pain patients also experience sleep impairments—issues that medical cannabis uniquely addresses by tackling pain and improving rest simultaneously."

    "By adopting some of the UK’s emphasis on safety and regulation, the US could create a more balanced system. Incorporating medical oversight into cannabis care wouldn’t stifle innovation—it would enhance trust and ensure the industry meets the needs of its most vulnerable patients, including seniors."
