Marijuana has emerged in recent years for its positive medical qualities. This presentation is about the pros and cons of marijuana as a sleep aid.

A light dose of marijuana and a calm environment can be perfect for many people looking to relieve their sleep problems.3. Some argue that marijuana will not benefit people who have trouble falling asleep.a. As many cannabis users will tell you, the drug has different effects on different users.
