Scientific Research into Medicinal Cannabis – IBD Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Inflammatory Bowel Disease  is a term mainly used to describe two conditions: ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease.

Ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease are long-term conditions that involve inflammation of the gut. Ulcerative colitis only affects the colon (large intestine). Crohn’s disease can affect any part of the digestive system, from the mouth to the anus.
