By 2030, it's estimated that 20% of the population will be over 65. And in the last 3 years, there has been a 75% increase in the number of seniors who are interested in medical cannabis.
In fact, the average age at Dr. Vincour's practice is about 79-80 years old. So why are all of these seniors all of a sudden interested in using cannabis, and why?
