Cannabis and Anandamide

In this week’s episode, Ryan explores the fascinating world of anandamide, often called the “bliss molecule,” and its role in the endocannabinoid system (ECS). He discusses how anandamide helps maintain harmony within the body, influencing functions like mood, stress response, and even the euphoric “runner’s high.” Ryan dives into the discovery of the ECS and how cannabinoids such as CBD enhance anandamide by inhibiting its breakdown, making cannabis a powerful tool for stress relief, immune support, and pain management. This episode offers a science-packed look at how understanding anandamide can enhance one’s relationship with cannabis and personal wellness.

Cannabis and Bipolar Disorder

Can Cannabis assist with bipolar disorder?! Today Jack and I have a more serious topic for you, which is bipolar disorder, otherwise known as “BD.”

Why is this topic important? Because 2.3 million AMERICANS are affected by this annually (~3% of the population), but that number is amplified by how they may affect other people as well.  

             -up to 25%-60% of these attempt suicide at one point in their lives.

Resources as to Where to get help if you think you have BD:

American Psychiatric Association (APA)

Brain and Behavior Research Foundation

International Society for Bipolar Disorders (ISBD)

National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH)

National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI)

Cannabis and the Pros and Cons of Medical vs. Recreational

This week, Ryan discusses the differences between medical and recreational cannabis, exploring the pros and cons of each. He breaks down how medical cannabis is prescribed and tailored to specific conditions like chronic pain, anxiety, PTSD, and epilepsy, offering controlled dosages and often requiring a prescription. In contrast, recreational cannabis is used for relaxation, enjoyment, and social purposes, with easier access in legal states but less regulation. Ryan also touches on the legal variations between states and countries, the health considerations of both types, and how personal needs and local laws play a significant role in choosing between medical and recreational cannabis.

Cannabis and The Gateway Myth!
 

The real “gateway” substances are often legal drugs like alcohol, nicotine, and opioids. 

-Studies have shown that people who become addicted to these substances often start at a young age, but cannabis is not a typical starting point for substance abuse. 

-The conversation around addiction should focus on substances with proven harm, rather than vilifying cannabis.
 

Alternative thought: 

Cannabis IS a POSITIVE gateway drug into the exploration of consciousness and the use of other plant-based alternatives to assist with opening one’s mind and expanding one’s consciousness
