    Medical marijuana has a history of use for over 4,000 years to treat gastrointestinal disorders, headaches, insomnia and pain relief. It has more recently been used to help with chronic pain relief, reducing muscle spasms and nausea, treating chronic epilepsy, aiding with weight loss and cancers, and helping conditions like anxiety, multiple sclerosis, and glaucoma. Medical marijuana is also sometimes used to help people in drug rehabilitation break addictions to harder drugs such as heroin or methamphetamines.
