Biography
With over three decades of extensive experience growing and studying medicinal cannabis, Leonard Leinow brings a unique spiritual perspective to his work.
Leonard is an expert in cannabidiol (CBD) rich products, the non-psychoactive, “get well” molecule in the cannabis plant. He is is a pioneer in the application of these medicines to cancer, epilepsy, pain, M.S., and many other health conditions.
In addition to being the co-author of the best selling book "CBD: A Patient’s Guide to Medicinal Cannabis ~ Healing Without the High" and founder of two medicinal cannabis companies, Leonard is also featured in the recent documentary film "CBD Nation" The recently released documentary, CBD Nation, is the first wide-release film dedicated to the cannabis plant compound’s deep roots.
Featuring leading experts in cannabis and medicine, including Raphael Mechoulam—the Israeli scientist who discovered THC, the endocannabinoid system and the therapeutic efficacy of CBD to treat medical conditions—the 83-minute film exposes 60 years of often ignored published reports and ongoing research.
“With interviews spanning the U.S. and Canada, more than 30 physicians, clinicians, scientists and patients clearly explain how the human body has evolved to work with cannabis, providing not only healing, but also hope for the world’s most politicized plant to be accepted for what it is: medicine.”
