ACDC: A Strain As Effective or Even More Than Charlotte's Web

For years Charlotte's Web has been the strain universally used to drastically reduce epileptic seizures amongst younger patients. However, its use has remained under constant surveillance by the authorities in Colorado, the US state in which it is grown. As a result many families have been forced to move there to have access to the treatment their children desperately need.

But the use of another strain, ACDC, has begun to spread amongst those who require therapeutic marijuana for health reasons. ACDC, though not as well-known, is quite similar to Charlotte's Web and has been grown in northern California for years, even before the famous Charlotte's Web made a real splash on the scene.

Published reviews indicate that ACDC is as effective as Charlotte's Web. The strain, whose fame is growing each day, also contains very low levels of THC and plenty of CBD, which makes it a cannabis variety with negligible psychoactive effects, even while it maintains all its medical potential.

As has been demonstrated, varieties of cannabis with high doses of CBD, or cannabidiol, are highly effective at eliminating and reducing pain, seizures, inflammation and anxiety. They also are being used as a way to treat diseases such as arthritis, diabetes, epilepsy, schizophrenia and PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder).

Moreover, the oil from ACDC extracts has been shown to have CBD and THC levels of 82% and just 3%, respectively, which makes its oil a valuable product for those who must avoid psychoactive effects when seeking to soothe their pain or relieve the effects of cancer.

Those who have tried it and assessed its effects report that it has helped them deal with anxiety, migraines, gastrointestinal disorders, PTSD and even attention deficit disorders with hyperactivity. When discussing its medical benefits they have described ACDC as the best when it comes to alleviating pain, this effect being accompanied by reduced stress, depression, inflammation and headaches. As for its emotional and psychological benefits, patients have indicated that after medicating with it they felt more concentrated, relaxed, happy, energetic and in higher spirits.
