What if cannabis education focused on benefits, not fear?Daniel Bear, PhD returns to break down the cannabis industry THC obsession, Canada's cannabis tax imbalance, and why mindful consumption—not prohibition—is the future of cannabis policy. Daniel tackles falling prices, rising taxes, disappearing profit margins, and the ongoing threat of the illicit market. He explores how high-THC marketing pressures, youth protection, and consumer education can seem to be in conflict. Everyone, except governments, hat taxes, but Daniel believes smarter tax policies could stabilize the market without compromising safety. Daniel also unveils an exciting new 'project: HERBy, the Helpful Education for Responsible Benefit-maximization tool. AI can be your therapist, or your research assistant, so why not a mindful cannabis consumption chatbot. This tool is built on groundbreaking research from his recent peer-reviewed study, "Harm reduction isn't enough: Introducing the concept of Mindful Consumption and Benefit Maximization (MCBM)," published in the International Journal of Drug Policy. Listen now to learn whether Canada is still on the right path—and what industry, government, and consumers must do next to ensure legalization succeeds for everyone.HERBy Chatbot - websiteDaniel Bear PhD - LinkedIn-responsum.caTranscripts, papers and so much more at: reefermed.ca

Cannabis Use During Pregnancy and Lactation American College of Obstetricians & Gynecologists Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit drug under U.S. federal law. With increasing social acceptability, accessibility, and legalization in many states, the prevalence of cannabis use among pregnant and lactating individuals has increased significantly. Substance use in pregnancy, including cannabis use, has been associated with adverse outcomes such as spontaneous preterm birth, low birth weight, and developmental delay. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of pregnant and lactating patients' use of cannabis and be prepared to counsel and screen all patients and use evidence-based strategies to reduce cannabis use. These include supportive home visits, psycho-behavioral strategies, or brief electronic or text messaging interventions to reduce cannabis use in pregnancy and the postpartum period to promote parental and newborn health.

Cannabis Use Disorder Emergency Department Visits and Hospitalizations and 5-Year Mortality JAMA Network Open This cohort study of 11.6 million people who were studied for a median of five years investigated if individuals who have hospital-based (emergency department or hospitalization) care for a cannabis use disorder (CUD) were at increased risk of death. Researchers found that individuals with incident hospital-based care for a CUD were at a 2.8-fold increased risk of death within five years relative to the general population. These results suggest that individuals who require hospital-based care for a CUD may be at increased risk of premature death.

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows! This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track! Check out today's questions: Daniel: Hi there Dr Cabral, first of all want to say I've followed you now for close to 5 years. The impact you've had on mine and my famly's life is immeasurable. I am certain we will all lead a longer and healthier life due to you. Thank u. Ok so, I suffer from psoriasis and have now done the CBO protocol 4x's.I have done it because every summer I tend to eat more cheat meals on vacation and drink more alcoholic beverages which gets me flared back up. After each protocol my results are amazing. This time, though I'd like to really stay committed and realign myself when I get off track. I take gluten dairy Support for cheat meals and 2 probiotics a day. What else would you suggest I do when I have a couple of really bad weeks and start to flare up? Citricidal drop/florafilm/intestinal cleanse? Ty Anonymous: HI Dr Cabral, I've recently that long term cannabis use causes pre-mature aging of the brain. What can you advise someone do to best heal and recover from such long term use? Also, what are your thoughts on DMSO with regards to this particular modality? Ive heard of stroke patients recovering from using it, so curious what effects it may have. Thanks Paul: Hi Dr. Cabral, I appreciate you and all that you share. I've had gut issues for some time and I'm starting the CBO protocol soon after trying so many things. One thing I can't figure out is there seems to be a link between having tension in my lower left abdomen (near pelvic bone and feels like a muscle that I can massage) and experiencing gut issues like feeling bloated. I never feel this in my right abdomen. It doesn't hurt but I can feel it (sometimes smooth and sometimes like bigger balls). What could this be? Thank you! Jeff: I have purchased the CBO protocol and all the supplements just not sure about adding vegetable starch to my meals. do I want to get vegetable starch powder? Or just cut up the vegetables that provide starch? if you could please get back to me that would be greatly appreciated Sandra: I'm on my second week of detox. I'm having a tough time trying to sleep at any suggestion. I've tried everything that I can think of. Appreciate your time and wonderfulness. Lindsay: Hi Dr Cabral. I'm thinking of taking TruNiagen's NAD. Is there anything bad about takin NAD? also what is your opinion of Fatty15. I currently take Omegas for my dry eye disease and was thinking about switching to Fatty 15.

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Matthew Hill, Ph.D., a professor of cell biology and anatomy at the Hotchkiss Brain Institute at the University of Calgary and an expert on the biology of cannabis. We discuss how cannabis affects the brain to produce its psychoactive effects (feeling “high”), including altered time perception, focus, memory, appetite, and stress. We discuss how THC vs. cannabidiol (CBD) affects the brain, the effects of different routes of cannabis administration (e.g., smoking, vaping, edibles), high-potency THC, and whether cannabis is addictive. We discuss if there is a link between cannabis use and the development of psychosis, anxiety, bipolar depression, or schizophrenia. We discuss whether CBD has clinical benefits in regulating stress, promoting sleep, and treating certain diseases. We also discuss if there are real and consistent differences in the biological effects of different cannabis strains, if cannabis impacts hormones, and the uses of cannabis for the management of pain, stress, Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and nausea. Listeners of this episode will get an up-to-date understanding of what is currently known about how cannabis affects the brain and body, including both its potential benefits and risks.
