Welcome to Canna Help You

Founded in 2017, we have been committed to helping seniors understand the potential benefits of living a more productive and healthy life through the use of natural alternative cannabis medicines. Over the years we have collaborated with knowledgeable licensed doctors, nurses, and pharmacists to thoughtfully share cannabis alternatives. This ongoing contact enables us to serve as a resource for information about medicinal cannabis derived products.

We continually monitor related news and articles, as well as interactions with medicinal cannabis practitioners to gain insights into the latest products available on the market. We will be providing reviews and eventually compiling a list of preferred products as a resource for seniors and their families.

Our Founder, Peggy Anderson

Cannabis Legalization Trends

Significant changes continue to take place in the policy landscape surrounding cannabis legalization, production, and use in an increasing number of states across the U.S. Thirty states and the District of Columbia currently have laws broadly legalizing cannabis in some form. Currently Eight states and the District of Columbia have adopted the most expansive laws legalizing cannabis for recreational use. The vast majority allow for limited use of medical cannabis under certain circumstances.  Some medical cannabis laws are broader than others, with types of medical conditions that allow for treatment varying from state to state. Eight additional states are poised to legalize cannabis use in 2018. These dramatic changes are supported by over  61% of Americans who indicated support for cannabis legalization – based on a PEW Research Center survey of U.S. adults conducted in late 2017.

Cannabis Health Benefits

Modern research suggests that cannabis is a valuable aid in the treatment of a wide range of clinical applications. These include pain relief — particularly neuropathic pain — nausea, spasticity, glaucoma, and movement disorders. Medicinal cannabis is also a powerful appetite stimulant, specifically for patients suffering from HIV, the AIDS wasting syndrome, or dementia. Emerging research suggests that cannabinoids and terpenes found in cannabis work together synergistically to help protect the body against some types of malignant tumors. More health benefits are coming to light every day.
