McCarty has been pro-cannabis for years now. In fact, he even grew his own strains in the past.
Plus, he says cannabis saved his life.
Back in 2015, both his heart and liver were in critical condition after years of prescription medicine and alcohol abuse.
Following several stints of rehab, court battles, two marriages, and even a seven-day coma, McCarty put down the pills and bottle in favor of cannabis. This turmoil lasted years, he says, from 1999 to 2015.
And he hasn't looked back since.
In the three years following his switch over to cannabis, The Detroit Free Press says McCarty has lost 60 pounds. Beyond that, he's completely stopped drinking and smoking cigarettes, and he no longer needs his prescriptions for problems like insomnia.
He's made huge progress to the point that at 47 years old, he says he feels 35 again. And he says it's all because of cannabis and even CBD.
McCarty starts and ends his day with CBD and cannabis to get him moving - but also to help him sleep.
