With the flood of ice water challenge videos saturating the internet, I thought I'd draw attention to a possible supplement to ALS / Lou Gehrig's Disease treatment. If you can, please make a donation to the ALS association. My goal with this article is to provide as much reference material possible for any arguments or essays that you may be concocting about cannabis - or simply for educational purposes.
