Scientists of the University of Debrecen have discovered that certain agents of marijuana could be used as a cure for the most common human skin disease, acne vulgaris.
The research group published an article about the topic in one of the most acknowledged international scientific reviews, The Journal of Clinical Investigation. The article says that investigations confirmed during the last two decades that the human body expresses such receptors, which are able to specifically bind and recognize characteristic terpene-phenol compounds of the infamous plant Cannabis sativa, collectively referred to as phytocannabinoids.
Cannabidiol is used safely and effectively as a cure for sclerosis multiplex, childhood epilepsy and various inflammatory diseases for years. With the new discovery, the exertion of cannabidiol is to be broadened: from now on it could be the antidote of acne, atopic eczema and psoriasis.
