Cannabis and Body Temperature Regulation: Staying Cool With Cannabis!

Today we’re talking about something that is familiar to me at least, and a topic that may be familiar for you as well during these past few days…body-heat regulation!

We will talk about the science behind this as well, however overall this topic is a bit more of a stretch.

Personally, I believe that cannabis has helped me immensely in this regard, and I will go through and discuss how.

We’ll find that sometimes we’ll see direct impacts on temperature control with cannabis (THC); and other effects are more indirect (CBD).

Overall, I think this topic is largely tied to anxiety, however since it’s overlooked and has helped me as much as it has, I wanted to take time to discuss it!
