Why do I get the feeling this woman blamed heavy metal for society's ills in the 80s? I don't think weed is good for you just like booze or caffeine or sugar isn' t good for you, but this Dr.'s take is so biased it's like Reefer Madness.
@@TheBongorockshe shows bias by neglecting to mention WHY there isn't science based evidence about the benefits of cannabis. It's been illegal to grow and study the benefits of this plant, and funding has only been available to research the negative impacts of cannabis. Lack of scientific evidence doesn't mean that the benefits don't exist
@@DefaultBehavior That is not how that works. The lack of science isn't neglect, it is working with what you have. And I'll tell you more, there are thousands of people on here alone who will tell you eactly what she is saying from their personal experience. You have an agenda if you are argueing it.
@TheBongorock I didn't say that the lack of science was neglect. My only agenda here is to point out that she was presenting things as facts based on incomplete studies. As a fellow scientist, I find it abhorrent that a scientist would draw conclusions based on lack of data. When your big catch phrase is, "there are no studies that support," that's not science, that's knowing lay people will interpret that to mean more than it does. It's manipulative; she knows very well WHY those studies are limited
The DEA's own administrative law judge, Francis Young, concluded after an exhaustive review of the evidence: "Marijuana, in its natural form is one of the safest therapeutically active substances known to man."
32:50 Correlation is not causation…c’mon lady. Easy enough to find studies showing use correlated with various disorders and disabilities, questioning that it’s the use causing the problems rather than the problems leading to seeking the use.
My brother scored the highest for the US Virgin Islands on the SAT in 1990, 1520. He went on to attend the top technical college in America, Harvey Mudd (I believe currently the most expensive higher education in the US). He has a couple patents with his name on it, from when he helped build the West Coast's internet infrastructure in the mid to late 1990s. He got a masters from UNC-Chapel Hill. He knew enough to invest in cryptocurrencies and is considering retiring some time soon, at age 52. He smoked pot in high school and college, and still does - we are both on medical MJ down here in FL and smoke together.
She's over here telling you to take Ibuprofen and other stuff. Ibuprofen is horribly bad for you. It eats the inner lining in your stomach. This lady. I don't really think she knows what she's talking about
If you had a bad headache you'd take ibuprofen and it would, at least, relieve some of that pain. You would and have never smoked some marijuana for the same headache. She wasn't 'telling you to take ibuprophen and other stuff' or that part where she denied it could have ANY side-effects. Nor is it 'horribly bad for you'. If you're going to call that 'horribly bad' then you don't have a lot of room for arsenic or alcohol or 1000 other things that are bad for you.
Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome (CHS) is a rare ailment that strikes some heavy, long-term marijuana consumers. - It can't be considered a serious disease because all it takes to cure it is stop consuming marijuana.
There are some hypothesizing that CHS is actually caused by the contaminating pesticides, like Neem oil, rather than the cannabis itself. Of course, it still needs to be studied
@@DefaultBehavior Yes and some studies hypothesizing it's actually caused by the marijuana or 'TCH' itself. Y'know, the psychoactive chemical that bathes the brain over and over again.
It's not marijuana, it's cannabis. I don't believe much of anything she said, especially after what she said about alcohol, and over the counter Nsaids, which I cannot take.
Right, it's weird as at first I see George and yet after a few minutes I realise he's become a selfless and attentive person. In a world where everyone thinks they can host a podcast, Jason can!
I tried CBD for pain/ restless legs and it actually made everything much worse to the point I was in tears. Tried it 3 different times to make sure. Apparently this can happen to 10% of some people, oh lucky me.
I'm not, and never have been a user of marijuana. In general I've never been for it, but I've never been adamantly against it either. I'd be very curious to see a follow up on this, especially from Peter, 6 months, or a year from now to hear him discuss the effects of quitting, or whether or not he continued to no longer use it. Always a great podcast, thank you very much for the work you do.
Medical cannabis is used to treat a variety of conditions and symptoms, offering several potential benefits based on its active compounds, primarily THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol). Below are some of its primary benefits: 1. Pain Relief Chronic Pain: Often prescribed for conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, and neuropathic pain. Cancer-related Pain: Used to alleviate pain caused by cancer or its treatments. 2. Reducing Inflammation Autoimmune Disorders: Beneficial for inflammatory conditions such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and multiple sclerosis (MS). Localized Pain and Swelling: Anti-inflammatory properties can ease symptoms of localized injuries or joint pain. 3. Neurological and Mental Health Disorders Epilepsy: CBD is FDA-approved for treating seizures associated with conditions like Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. Anxiety and Depression: CBD shows potential for reducing anxiety, stress, and improving mood. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD): THC and CBD may help reduce nightmares and anxiety. Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease: May alleviate tremors, stiffness, and agitation. 4. Appetite Stimulation Cancer and HIV/AIDS: Often used to combat appetite loss and cachexia (wasting syndrome). Eating Disorders: THC can help stimulate appetite in individuals with conditions like anorexia. 5. Nausea and Vomiting Relief Chemotherapy-induced Nausea: THC is effective in reducing nausea and vomiting associated with cancer treatments. Gastrointestinal Disorders: May help manage symptoms of IBS or gastroparesis. 6. Sleep Aid Insomnia: THC can help induce sleep and reduce sleep disturbances. Sleep Apnea and Restless Leg Syndrome: Some evidence supports its use for improving sleep quality. 7. Muscle Spasticity Multiple Sclerosis (MS): Shown to reduce muscle spasms and stiffness. Spinal Cord Injuries: Provides relief from muscle rigidity. 8. Glaucoma Reduces intraocular pressure, which can benefit glaucoma patients, though newer treatments are generally preferred. 9. Skin Disorders Psoriasis and Eczema: Anti-inflammatory and anti-itch properties of topical cannabis preparations can help manage these conditions. 10. Harm Reduction Opioid Substitution: May reduce reliance on opioids for chronic pain management. Alcohol and Drug Addiction: Early evidence suggests it can aid in reducing withdrawal symptoms and cravings.

This lady is making Bold claims on misleading stats. Correlation does not imply causation. It is not surprising whatsoever that reported statistics of weed has drastically increased since weed was legalized because people feel they can actually report their use without criminal repercussions. Alcohol use and abuse and hospitalizations still far exceeds weed use and abuse. Weed use has definitely increased because of it's legalization and more people using weed instead of alcohol. Opioids also cause far more hospital problems and damage than weed. Abuse of even over-the-counter medicine like Naproxen and ibuprofen can cause serious or permanent damage with long term use. People with mental health issues are also far more likely to abuse drugs and/or alcohol, particularly those with schizophrenia or pre-existing dispositions for it. This lady's arguments completely ignores the core issues being, proper education of the effects of marijuana and general drug use, education of the dangers that drugs and alcohol of all kinds can posses, the importance of teaching moderation, and the clear need for proper mental health care and help for addictions of all kinds. Not to mention the responsibility of the parent to properly educate their kids. Preaching/teaching total abstinence has never and will never work.
This expert also said that long term use can promote vomiting and sleeplessness, in all the decades that I've used cannabis daily, I have not experienced either, or. Im sure there are many who have an allergic reaction to cannabis, it is NOT for everyone. How many people have allergic reactions to cheese or alcohol, yet these two items are celebrated worldwide with festivals and events, cannabis however is not.
She not making “bold claims”. If you “do your research” you’ll find what she is saying is pretty common knowledge among anyone who actually follows this stuff. Most of ya’ll are fighting hard against it BECAUSE YOU HAVE BUILT IN BIAS, AND MOST OF YA’LL ARE FUNCTIONAL CANNABIS ADDICTS.
I went thru adolescence and early adulthood in the 60s and 70s. Back then it seemed like almost everyone got high. Twenty -some years later is when it became obvious that those of us who had never stopped smoking pot were showing the damage. The term we used was "Fried".
Spare me this bs conversation. It’s not addiction, but I will agree it’s habit forming-big difference. There are so many of us who have been getting high for decades.
I live in CA, where every1 smokes weed. Weed itself isn't bad, addiction is. Take it from me - I've been addicted my whole adult life, and heavy use has messed my brain up and caused permanent damage. Don't listen to hippies and musicians - You are better off abstaining.
Hey I’m digging the podcast but fyi, I switched listening to this episode from YT to Spotify and the audio quality on Spotify is significantly worse. All my other pods on Spotify sound fine. Something to look into.
6:27 how many studies have been conducted to show how bad it is versus supporting medicinal benefits? I’ve yet to see a study conducted with the intent of analyzing medical use, but it sounds like they might be out there since she’s quoting results like they are. I’d bet against their legitimacy though, because… As she says, mild pain reliever (though I’ve always heard it described as not relieving the pain but more like allowing you to ignore it), both helping sleep and causing sleep disorders depending on use, etc. Of course the dose matters! Opiates prevent pain, but are highly addictive and kill how many people with overdoses? It’s really disheartening seeing a singular, polarized take on a topic that affects so many people. It’d be nice to see her along with someone else who can point out the gaps and flaws in her logic. 8:30 How many chemicals in apples? Milk? It’s just a ridiculous statistic without any context. What’s the point? 13:28 29% of users have a use disorder…what defines that? Over 5 drinks in a night means you’re binge drinking. It’s a label, and without explaining the context it all just sounds like scare tactics.
I quit being a daily smoker years ago, and have friends in their 50s that still are daily users. I am glad I stopped, but this lady is not quite inspirational, spouting hollow studies and little practical issue problems
Yes when you go to a dispensary depending on the state you are in require testing of the canna before it is approved for sale. These are independent testing labs that review THC, CBD, pesticides, molds. The document for every sample sold in a dispensary is called a COA ( certificate of analysis) and includes all of these elements. Don’t consume any cannabis products that do not have this certificate associated with it. This is an Ohio example. Yes do not use if under 21 but it depends on the brains development. Same for alcohol. Alcohol is a poison to the body. Cannabis itself if grown organically and raised with minimal pesticides and fungicides (outdoor grown) and dried properly to reduce the chance of mold is not toxic and cannot kill you. Alcohol and many other prescription drugs as well as over the counter can kill you.
She’s clearly not entirely wrong as she cites validated science but she’s missing a lot of important information in her argument. Cannabis is the right word, not marijuana. She’s also not pointing out a lot of the obvious facts. While she states Cannabis is highly complex with 700+ compounds, she isn’t stated that it’s one of the least studied medicinal plants while claiming most of the science points to how it doesn’t do what millions of people anecdotally claim it does for them. Half truths are just that, half the truth. There isn’t enough science to definitely state that cannabis itself is inherently bad yet her entire argument throughout the interview makes it clear that’s her position. Not only is cannabis itself not well researched, the way it’s grown is also not well researched. It is known to be a plant that absorbs lots of different things when it’s grown in soil and it’s likely that the quality of cannabis including its nutrients, pesticides, soil absorption etc highly impact the plant quality and we don’t know if cannabis is the culprit or if the toxicity of these other substances is the real reason for the majority of what she cites as negative. And frankly you cannot be the utmost authority having never used it. It’s an entire experience that creates a dataset that’s missing from her knowledge base.
Based on the intro and comment section at least two boomers are about to go the reefer madness route and hoping I’m wrong or Jason is today’s voice of reason
I don’t want to be ageist but seeing an older woman, who can’t frame a FaceTime call while spouting some claims from 100 years ago doesn’t give me confidence in her expertise.

Prohibition works well. Unless you are want to be stoopid and childish and pretend someone claims prohibition TOTALLY 100% stops ALLLLLL abuse.
12:53 So Jason, I wanted to leave a comment regarding the idea that you could simply ask a question without stating that you'd like to ask a question.

This was an extremely immature response, and not very scientific.
