Medical marijuana is the medicinal-grade cannabis plant, and its pure extracts used to treat a medical illness or improve a symptom. The healing properties are part of the cannabidiol (CBD) in the plant in addition to the critical levels of medical terpenes and flavonoids. Through traditional plant breeding techniques, cannabis plants are being produced which have higher levels of CBD.

Getting access to medical marijuana in New York can be quite tricky. There are several laws and regulations that a patient must keep in mind. Not to forget that in the State of New York, only 14 medical conditions qualify for the use of medical cannabis.
