THC and CBD aren’t “magic”—they’re molecular moderators.
The endocannabinoid system is built to tune mood, fear, memory, and reward. Yet med schools rarely teach it.

1/ In the ongoing debate about the study of Cannabis Medicine, a German publication raises some points that deserve repeating.

#MDSideNote: As "outside" #cannabis comes in, a natural counter-balancing occurs. Receptors receiving too much “cannabis signal” reduce in number (turning the signal volume down) BUT: “this reduction of CB1-R[eceptor]s in daily users can be reversed with sustained abstinence.”
..But when? #MDByte: One study “no longer detected significant reductions in CB1-Receptors after 2-to-4 weeks of cannabis abstinence.” Another study “no longer detected a statistically significant reduction in CB1R availability in cannabis users after 2 or 28 days of abstinence.”
