In the case that CBD alone wasn’t effective in treating seizures effectively, the patients could then take delta-9 THC while gradually reducing CBD dosage. Researchers used logs based on reports from the patients in order to assess the effectiveness of the treatments; they also monitored seizure frequencies before, during, and after administration of cannabis oil treatments. 

The research, published in Advances in Therapy, followed 64 chronic pain patients for six months and found that cannabis-naïve participants experienced the most significant pain reduction, with scores dropping by an remarkable 60%.

The old stereotype of the lazy, unmotivated stoner is officially dead. A new poll from NuggMD has delivered a devastating blow to prohibition propaganda by revealing that 54% of cannabis consumers report that marijuana use has had a positive impact on their careers - including 28% who describe that impact as "very positive." Only 10% reported negative career effects, while 36% said cannabis had no impact at all on their professional lives.

The DEA has released an "emoji decoding guide" that reads like a collaboration between Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" campaign and a particularly unhinged conspiracy theorist's Pinterest board. According to our nation's premier drug enforcement agency, teenagers are using clovers, pine trees, dragons, cookies, and red maple leaves to orchestrate sophisticated drug trafficking operations through text messages. It's as if the DEA discovered the internet yesterday and decided that every symbol more complex than a smiley face must be part of an international drug conspiracy.

Another study, whose results were published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology, was conducted by Johns Hopkins Medicine researchers and revealed that psilocybin-assisted therapy together with psychotherapy provided patients with a year-long releif from depression. For the study, they analyzed 27 participants, all of whom had a long history with depression. a  majority of them struggled with depressive symptoms for around 2 years before treatment began, and they had an average age of 40. 

Minnesota state investigators analyzed 3,102 patients of sleep apnea who were enrolled in the medical marijuana program. In a study, they discussed how 40% of the patients experienced sustainable and significant improvements after they began using medical marijuana. Cannabis was most commonly consumed by the patients via inhalation, though flower and weed oil were also equally popular. Additionally, high THC products were widely used by the patients. 

The research, which tracked 1,428 Canadian adults over five years following nationwide legalization, found that while overall cannabis use increased slightly, problematic misuse actually decreased. You read that right—more people are consuming cannabis, but they're doing it more responsibly.

Ever wonder why some cannabis strains smell like a skunk's revenge while others evoke fresh citrus or earthy pine forests? The answer lies in a fascinating molecular symphony that's far more complex than most people realize. A groundbreaking new scientific review has peeled back the curtain on cannabis aromatics, revealing that the distinctive smells and flavors we associate with different strains result from an intricate dance between genetics, cultivation methods, and environmental factors.

The survey by Fabrizio, Lee & Associates (whose principal, Tony Fabrizio, served as pollster for Trump's 2016 and 2024 presidential campaigns) found something that might shock the mainstream media narrative: GOP voters are "even more supportive" of allowing states to set their own cannabis policies without federal interference (72%) than the general voting population (68%).

While autistic people are generally less likely to use recreational substances than the general population, those who do use drugs are nine times more likely to be self-medicating for autism-related symptoms and mental health conditions. This isn't a story about drug abuse - it's a story about medical abandonment and the predictable consequences of leaving vulnerable populations to fend for themselves.
