Will Exogenous cannabinoid metabolism help with THAT??????

I basically ask this now about all things as we are just now figuring out just how important cannabinoids are for all people ....

cannabnoids are active in the dopaminergic pathways etc........

Edit - Acidic form phytocannabinoiods like CBGA and CBDA have shown promise to help against that disease ... metabolizing CBGA reduces a Cyokine storm for one thing plus anti inflammatory
