They need to make it into a pill form

Already done. THC has been synthesized and put in a non-intoxicating oral form for some time now.

No. THC is always quite intoxicating. Even in edible form, it is impossible to have a fully functioning rational mind to drive and work. However, there is another cannabinoid that does not make you high that is excellent for pain, anxiety, and many many conditions, and that is CBD (from actual marijuana, the kind from hemp is useless).

I’d like to hope CBD would also have this amazing effect on the brain developing Alzheimer’s. Taking CBD oil is simple and you can live your life. There is usually a tiny bit of THC in it but the CBD counteracts the high. CBD is what medical marijuana patients who actually take it for serious conditions are taking.

Please remember: SMOKING is very unhealthy and puts toxins right into your brain, and that includes smoking marijuana. However, vaping, taking oils or tinctures orally, are healthy ways to ingest a medicinal herb. So if you are reading this and want to do your own experiment on Grandma, DO NOT HAVE HER START SMOKING LEAVES. Get oils or vaping stuff.

"THC has been synthesized and put in a non-intoxicating oral form for some time now."

Yeah, but THC is only ONE of the cannabinoids in marijuana, and may not be the active agent for this particular purpose. "Hash brownies" are probably the better course at this time,or powdered m.j. mixed with water and swallowed.

The fact that it actively removes the amyloid is wonderful news, as that can mean an actual curative, rather than a preventative (which would also be good).

I confess to a vested interest, in that my great-grandmother had severe dementia (great health otherwise, as she lived to a very ripe old age, dying when I was around four).
