Olivia Newton-John on How Weed Has Helped Her Battle with Cancer
So, we have mentioned Olivia Newton-John’s battle with cancer on TNMNews.com before and how important of a role marijuana has played for her. If you are unfamiliar with Ms. Newton-John, she became famous in the movie Grease with John Travolta, starred in quite a few other films and has had a great music career. She is now fighting cancer for the third time and again marijuana is helping her. Her husband, John Easterling, makes tinctures and other cannabis edibles for her from the marijuana they legally grow on their estate in California.

CBD Bar in Queens, New York
If you have ever been to the big apple, you know that the city is lined with restaurants and bars on nearly every street. It is a place where competition is at its finest and it is tough to distinguish one bar from everyone else’s. One entrepreneur though, George Csonka, was inspired by the cannabis movement, in particular with CBD, the non-psychoactive ingredient in marijuana that can soothe muscles and has a sort of calming effect. He has opened the first CBD bar in New York, called Adriaen Block where you can buy drinks with CBD in them. You can read more about Adriaen Block in our article on TNMNews.com, “NYC’s First CBD Cocktail Bar.” We tell you more about what inspired Mr. Csonka to offer CBD drinks and what inspired the name of the bar.

Best Strains of Marijuana to Fight Pain
And finally, I am going to continue with a discussion about strains. Certain strains of marijuana help with certain conditions. Around the world, cannabis is being used to help people fight pain. Not only are there certain strains that are better for combatting pain but there are also different ways to use marijuana to fight pain. You can always go the smoking or vaping route, but edibles work too. For a lot of people suffering with pain, topicals have become their favorite way of using marijuana to soothe pain.
