CBD and Epilepsy: The Charlotte Figi Story

Oliviamartin02 Dec, 2021Business

The use of CBD oil for epilepsy seizures has been around the medical cannabis community since 2005. Charlotte Figi, a Colorado toddler with severe Dravet Syndrome, had been experiencing 100 seizures a day. Since she started using CBD oil in 2013, she has only experienced 1 seizure. By age 2, Charlotte had already tried conventional treatments to control her symptoms. She had little success. Thankfully, at age 12, she has found relief in a cannabis strain called Charlotte’s Web. This strain is low in THC and high in CBD which gives the young girl the life she deserves.
