Welcome to The CED Clinic Channel! In this video, we share an important aspect of cannabis medicine, one that challenges traditional medical perspectives and centers the patient experience. With Dr. Benjamin Caplan, MD, a leader in clinical cannabis care, we explore the critical role of skepticism, patient empowerment, and the ongoing struggle to find reliable information in a field full of mixed messages.

Episode Highlights:
Cannabis medicine can be a misinformation minefield, with both positive and negative claims often riddled with inaccuracies. In this discussion, Dr. Caplan candidly addresses:
• The Need for Skepticism — Why being a “skeptical scientist” is essential in an industry flooded with myths
• Empowering Patients — How cannabis uniquely gives patients a sense of choice and control over their care
• Seeing Beyond Traditional Care — Shifting focus from doctor-driven prescriptions to patient-centered healing
• Debunking Myths — Which cannabis “facts” might be misleading, and how to find real answers

Dr. Caplan’s approach embraces patients as active participants in their treatment, offering them autonomy rarely found in conventional medicine. Cannabis, he explains, allows individuals to be deeply involved in managing their health—choosing the form, timing, and effects that best fit their needs.

As we unpack these themes, we’ll also highlight the broader implications for clinical care, covering issues like dosing for individualized effects, navigating an emerging and evolving cannabis industry, and insights from Dr. Caplan’s own experience at the forefront of cannabis medicine at CEDclinic.com and through The Doctor-Approved Cannabis Handbook, available at Amazon.com.
