While many cannabinoids have been shown to be beneficial, most agree it is CBD that is the most important contributor. High CBD strains like ACDC, Harlequin, Charlotte's Web, Cannatonic have demonstrated great treatment success. In fact, the FDA approved CBD to treat severe forms of epilepsy. "CBD has the ability to suppress seizures thanks to the interaction between CBD and the endocannabinoid system... CBD is structurally similar to endocannabinoids... In epilepsy patients, CBD primarily interacts with CB1 cannabinoid receptors in the brain. This interaction improves the overall function of the endocannabinoid endocardial system, from which convulsions are significantly reduced... CBD also has anti-inflammatory properties for the patient. Encephalitis is one of the reasons epilepsy worsens, and thankfully, CBD can reduce this severity."
Trial and error is sometimes necessary to find the strain most suitable. For high CBD, CBD Therapy comes to mind. While pharma pushes Epidiolex, any 1:1 product should work. Give a look at CBDCrew.org for other CBD cultivars.
