A talk with Teri Freitas Gormans, from Maui grown therapies and Michael Backes, author Cannabis Pharmacy-Practical Guide to Medical Marijuana. Maui Grown Therapies will host Michael Backes, author of the pioneering book, Cannabis Pharmacy-Practical Guide to Medical Marijuana on Friday, January 19 from 11am to NOON. The book-signing will be held in the Reception Room, which is open to the public; no 329 card is required for entry. Maui Grown Therapies is located at 44 Paʻa Street in the Maui Lani Village Center in Kahului.
First released in 2014, the new revised, updated edition of Cannabis Pharmacy was launched just last month. Researcher and cannabis expert Michael Backes offers evidence-based information on cannabis therapy to manage an array of ailments and conditions. He provides information on how cannabis works in the human body, how best to prepare and administer it, and how to modify and control dosage. The newly revised edition is completely up-to-date with the latest information on the body's encannabinoid system, which is now understood to control emotion, appetite, and memory. He also explains a new system for cannabis classification and 21 additional ailments and conditions that can be treated with medical cannabis. There are currently more than 4.2 million medical cannabis patients in the United States and nearly 20,000 certified patients in Hawaiʻi.
Michael Backes is the Curriculum & Training Advisor for Maui Grown Therapies and a member of the company’s Science & Medical Advisory Board. He specializes in cannabis science and policy issues for a Southern California consultancy. He previously founded the nation’s first evidence-based medical cannabis pharmacy. Backes is active with Project CBD (dedicated to promoting research into the medical utility of cannabidiol) and he is a member of the International Association for Cannabinoid Medicines, and the American Herbal Product’s Association’s Cannabis Committee.
“Michael came to Maui this past July to educate and train our staff,” said Teri Freitas Gorman, Director of Community Relations & Patient Affairs for Maui Grown Therapies. “We refer to his book Cannabis Pharmacy often, like a text book. The new sections on Women’s Health and Preventative Medicine are especially informative. We are very happy that our Maui community will have a chance to meet him at this free educational event.”
Cannabis Pharmacy is available for purchase at Maui Grown Therapies. For more information, phone (808) 866-7576.
