Researcher Dr Mohd Amir Bin Kamaruzzaman (Dr Amir) began treating lab rats at University Putra Malaysia (UPM) earlier this year to study how the cannabis compound Cannabidiol (CBD) can effectively treat Alzheimer’s disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lab rats used in the study are divided into six groups which include a baseline controlled group (treated only with water) and groups that are given neurotoxin Aluminum Chloride to induce Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) while being concurrently treated. Each group has five (5) rats and is separated by color as below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
