in our ""morning rounds"" new questions about the true healing power of medical marijuana. doctors arellowed to prescribe pot in 23 states. there are many health challenges that come with legalization. our dr. tara narula is here. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> what does it help what does it not help and why? >> this is the largest and most comprehensive review of the safety and efficacy of medical marijuana. 75 studies over 6,500 patients. they found there was a moderate level of evidence to support using it for chronic pain from neuropathy or cancer and
8:14 am
spasticity from diseases like multiple sclerosis. a low level of evidence to treat sleep, anorexia turrets's, nausea and vomiting from chemotherapy. the study highlights that there hasn't been enough high quality level evidence base to support any of this. we haven't had enough research. that's really where the problem lies. >> what are the side effects and do you think the positive outweighs the negative? >> certainly there are side effects, over 80% reported side effects, confusion, dizziness, dry mouth, sleepiness. but more serious like cognitive effects, increases in anxiety, depression or psychosis. concerns on how it affects the developing brains in adolescents. we don't have enough long-term study of the effects of this. >> do you think positive outweighs the negative? people who say they're being
8:15 am
helped -- >> always a risk-benefit discussion when it comes to any medication. that's certainly the case with this one. there are definitely people that this helps. it's a big dilemma right now you have the federal government still classifying this as illegal a schedule one drug. it's difficult to do research. you the states legislating this through. it's not going through the normal routes of being studied in the fda. who is in the middle? doctors and patients. doctors saying we need more evidence and patients who are suffering. >> the jury is still out. adding to the confusion, a new study says edible marijuana is often mislabled. >> that's alarming. researchers looked at over 70 products and found only 17% were accurately labeled for the active ingredient. 23% were underlabeled. 60% were overlabeled. you don't know what you're getting when you're paying for these products. worse could be that you're
8:16 am
overdosing. what are kind of medication do you go to the drugstore with and say, well let me take one pill, maybe i need two or three? you expect accuracy and consistency. >> as a doctor since there are no conclusive studies out there, why would you recommend it? >> the big thing is, like i said, if you have ever treated a patient with intractable nausea and vomiting from chemo, detractable pain these are debilitating conditions. the argument from some physician physicians is let's wait until we have more evidence before we put this out there because we're not saving lives. the other side the coin is people are really suffering. this offers an option with a relatively reasonable side effect proposal. >> interesting. dr. tara narula, thank you so much. more than one in four americans have zero savings, but it may be easier to save than you think and to change a bad habit. jill schlessinger is in our green room with the apps that the get your emergency fund in gear and the simple ways to

8:35 am
wish you were somewhere else and asked people at leisure, do you wish you were somewhere else. everyone at work said i wish i were somewhere else and everyone watching tv said i'm great right here. when he took account of their emotions. people at leisure had greater anxiety and emotion than the people at work. he calls it the paradox of working. it's miss wanting. they'd rather be complaining about a job than not working at all. >> it gives you planned purpose of connection. >> they say it's the best of three things autonomy i control, mastery, getting bet eric and meaning. meaning is the most important. >> your headline world without work, there shouldn't be a world without work. >> i certainly hope not. the olympics it's still
