Likely beneficial: The best available science suggests marijuana may be among the most beneficial herbs for healing post-concussion syndrome. More research is needed but if I had a concussion, based upon current knowledge I'd use marijuana, though the component most beneficial is CBD (which is non-psychoactive). Thus use high CBD-strains if possible. See http://tinyurl.com/zpm3xhx and http://tinyurl.com/z7nq9fj
