"Cannabis: A Growing Trend Among Seniors, Says Dr. Sanjay Gupta"

Dr. Sanjay Gupta, in his latest documentary "Weed 7: A Senior Moment," explores the growing trend of seniors using cannabis as a medicine. Seniors, who were once skeptical due to the war on drugs, are now turning to cannabis to address issues such as poor sleep, aches and pains, and mood. Many seniors prefer cannabis over traditional medications and opioids. The use of cannabis among seniors could potentially decrease the number of pharmaceuticals they take, which could have significant implications for healthcare spending. While cannabis is not a solution for everyone, it is providing relief for some seniors and changing perceptions about its medical benefits.
