So, you’re admitting that their research was biased?

I’m always skeptical of these kinds of studies because I wonder if the marijuana is causing the mental illnesses or if it’s being used to medicate mental illnesses that pre-existed the marijuana usage.

Yeah if you can't skate through drinking a fifth of Jim Beam a day then you likely can't skate through staying THC stoned every day. Oh the choices we have to make to get through life!

I see it as no different than alcohol; as long as it's recreational it's OK but if you abuse it, it abuses you.

My partner is handling this one directly. It was their biochemists who cited several studies.


If your understanding of his research is that CBD, which is most definitely neurologically active, does not Cross the blood-brain barrier and isn't a highly lipophilic substance without significant amine or other moieties that promote being repelled at the BBB, then you need to re-examine what he's telling you, because either he's feeding you bullshite - which I've included verified peer-reviewed literature to support where you keep saying "studies" and "biochemist" and words that are supposed to sound impressive which, to anyone who knows anything about this, are not.


quote:

FTR, over 99% of CBD products are from Class 1 FDA licensed facilities and cannot make any claims of specific benefits due very little testing.

They're still lipophilic, neurologically active, and definitely cross the BBB.


I'm not here to refute that its actual effects aren't proven. I'm not here to argue whether it's useful or not.
The entire claim that's justified by decent data is as follows:
For kids with Lennox-Gestault or Dravet Syndromes already on 3 seizure medications at near-max doses who add....it's either 5mg/kg or 10, but I believe 5... The average reduction in seizures was approximately 50%, but it wasn't clear if the metabolism of CBD boosting the levels/diminishing the degradation of them reduced levels of if the CBD itself was a novel antiepilleptic.


But everyone agrees it works in the brain. There's only one way for it to do that. Whether it's placebo or not, I've never seen that refuted in a reliable way

Know how I know you have never listened to a Rogan podcast? Because he's never said this once.

And here lies the problem. You and others are straight up lying in this thread about marijuana. The government has lied to you about it your whole life.

Smoking pot daily definitely makes you kind of dumb because you can’t think as quickly and sharp as you would sober, but once you stop smoking it, that sharpness and being able to think quickly and critically comes back and then everything is back to normal. I was a huge pothead in my college days and I never got psychosis or schizophrenia or any kind of mental disease. Anything that you drink, smoke, or dip daily impacts you but I don’t think weed impacts your long term health as bad as alcohol, tobacco, and other drug products. Pot is not something you should recommend to use but I’d rather my kids smoke some pot in college than destroy their livers from alcohol

I'm probably not all there, but the marijuana usage helps keep me from making the news.

Red 40 food dye is more dangerous than marijuana and they put that in cough drops, cough syrup, pills, tooth paste, etc.

Nobody mentioned yet how there is a near 100% correlation between milk and pedophiles?

Also milk and murder?

Even stronger, 100% of all murderous pedophiles have at some point consumed ... water!

Also, 100% of all criminals of every type have consumed oxygen.

Therefore we can draw the conclusion the air, water, and milk, cause crime.

I've listened to plenty. Particularly the one where he effectively calls Ben Shapiro a rat piece of shite because Ben had reservations about calling MJ a miracle drug. I'm just not a Rogan knob gobbler like you who worshipps the ground he walks.
