This Is What Marijuana Does to Your Brain

This Is What Marijuana Does to Your Brain
#shorts #Marijuana

The impact of marijuana on the brain is a complex issue, with some studies suggesting occasional use has minimal long-term effects. Frequent and heavy consumption, especially during adolescence, can alter brain development. THC, the psychoactive compound in marijuana, affects the endocannabinoid system, which is crucial for memory, learning, and decision-making. Prolonged exposure may reduce gray matter in regions responsible for cognition and impulse control. Genetic factors and individual brain chemistry influence the extent of these effects. The debate continues as researchers work to separate myths from facts and emphasize responsible use and further scientific exploration.

“Our hands were tied.” Millie’s Story (Cannabis for Kids, Part 1) | National Geographic

Written by thcscout on . Posted in Medical. No Comments on “Our hands were tied.” Millie’s Story (Cannabis for Kids, Part 1) | National Geographic

Penn and Nicole Mattison’s daughter, Millie, has infantile spasms with hypsarrhythmia, a form of epilepsy. By the time she was four months old she was having upwards of 700 seizures a day. The Mattisons tried numerous medications and diet plans, but Millie didn’t improve. After her doctors said they’d tried everything they could, the Mattisons looked to Colorado for an alternative treatment.

Some parents are turning to cannabidiol (CBD) oil, a cannabis extract with little or none of the psychoactive compound THC, to treat their children who have cancer and epilepsy. The oil is currently legal in more than a dozen U.S. states, but the supply is limited. The science also lags the law—dosing standards haven’t been set, and the effects of long-term use are unclear. Many doctors believe that more research is needed. In “Cannabis for Kids” a few parents share their experiences navigating the uncertainties of medical marijuana in America as they try to help their children.

The Science Behind Medical Marijuana

Written by thcscout on . Posted in Medical. No Comments on The Science Behind Medical Marijuana

Marijuana or Cannabis, known to some as the stoner drug, is known for getting people“high.” It is legal in 8 states for recreational use, legal in 20 states for medical use, and illegal in 22 states.
Some consider it to be as dangerous as cocaine or heroin.
But did you know that marijuana also has many reported health benefits, many that have been backed by research?
But before we get into that – let’s start by looking at the makeup of marijuana itself.
Marijuana contains 2 key ingredients.
The main component is a psychoactive ingredient that is responsible for the “high” effects. It’s called tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is a psychoactive chemical.
THC attaches to cannabinoid receptors in parts of the brain that include thinking, memory, sensory and time perception. This is how THC plays a part in psychological effects you may have while under the influence of cannabis.
THC has also been used for it’s pain-relieving effects.
A study published in the Journal of Pain & Palliative Care Pharmacotherapy suggested that THC activates pathways in the central nervous system which work to block pain signals from being sent to the brain.
A pilot study published in clinical drug investigation talks about how THC helps with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Because of its psychological effects on the brain, it has been therapeutic for some patients that have suffered from flashbacks, agitation and nightmares and other symptoms of PTSD
Another component of Marijuana is a non-psychoactive ingredient that is called cannabidiol (CBD). It reduces the effect that THC has, in other words it works against the “high effects”
CBD is thought to be responsible for turning off a gene by the name of ID-1, a protein coding gene that is suggested to help cancer cells spread throughout the body. Studies published in the journal Molecular Cancer Therapeutics, suggest that Cancerous cells make more copies of these genes than non-cancerous cells.
Some anecdotal cases show marijuana may also help in treating epilepsy – although this is yet to be comprehensively studied. But in the case of 8 year old Charlotte Figi, the use of marijuana that was low on THC but high on CBD had reduced her 300 seizures a week to just 1 seizure every 7 days.
So marijuana has other applications – other than just producing the ‘high effect’.
Are there any other science issues or phenomena you’d like us to explain? Let us know in the comments below!

Marijuana: A Demon Living Inside a Plant – Cannabis users MUST-WATCH!

Written by thcscout on . Posted in Facts. No Comments on Marijuana: A Demon Living Inside a Plant – Cannabis users MUST-WATCH!

What if Marijuana isn’t just a plant, but a spirit influencing us from the inside out? In this video, I share a perspective you’ve likely never heard before.

While science and facts often dominate the discussion (which I’m all-in for), today we’re diving into the spiritual side of Marijuana—exploring its essence, its impact on our consciousness, and why I believe there is a demon inside her, rather than being a medicine.

This is not your typical take on Cannabis. We’ll uncover how it influences our behaviors, numbs our pain, and feeds off our emotional wounds, all while being disguised as a medicine and as “your friend”. Is it really the medicine it’s claimed to be, or has it cleverly masked its true nature?

If you are a user, or know anyone who uses this plant a little too much, I believe this video is a must-watch. It will challenge everything you thought you knew.

Why Cannabis Medicine Is Unlike Anything Else: Truths, Myths & Empowered Patients | Dr Caplan

Written by thcscout on . Posted in Facts. No Comments on Why Cannabis Medicine Is Unlike Anything Else: Truths, Myths & Empowered Patients | Dr Caplan

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.

The Effects of Weed on Teenage Brains

About this video lesson:
When a person is smoking cannabis, one of the plant’s chemicals known as THC, passes from the lungs into the bloodstream and then to the brain. If that brain is exposed to a lot of THC, but still immature, the part responsible for controlling emotions may never reach its full potential. This can have long-term consequences and effects on one’s measurable intelligence, learning and judgment. But there are also other reasons why teens should not consume weed.
