Expert Pediatric Cannabis Consultations: Enhancing Child Health Safely
At Plant MD, we are dedicated to providing compassionate and holistic care for children through the use of low THC medical cannabis in South Florida. As a board-certified pediatrician and pediatric critical care physician with specialized expertise in pediatric medicine, Dr. Machado is committed to improving the quality of life for young patients.
Dr. Machado, with her extensive pediatric ICU background, has gained a profound understanding of the endocannabinoid system, a network of receptors found mainly in the immune and nervous systems. The endocannabinoid system plays a crucial role in mediating the therapeutic benefits of medical cannabis. Dysfunction in this system is implicated in the development of various conditions, making the administration of cannabinoids an effective treatment by restoring endocannabinoid tone and neurotransmission.
