Big news for brain health—and a huge moment for CBN.
A new peer-reviewed study, conducted by the Department of Cellular Neurobiology at the Salk Institute and led by Dr. Pamela Maher, just published in Cell Reports Medicine, shows CBN reversed age-related cognitive decline in preclinical models.
Not slowed. Reversed.
At FloraWorks, we were honored to contribute to this research by supporting the screening of over 40 cannabinoids for neuroprotective potential and supplying our high-purity TruCBN for this SAMP8 study. CBN emerged as a clear outlier, demonstrating significantly stronger effects than any other cannabinoid evaluated.
CBN could be one of the most important new tools in the fight against age-related memory loss and neurodegenerative disease.
By targeting the root drivers of decline—oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction—CBN shows real promise in improving memory and protecting long-term brain health.
This is why we do what we do.
To push cannabinoid science beyond the hype and into real solutions that improve lives.

This is our mission at FloraWorks with CBN which we have already clinically validated to improve sleep quality.

One day we'll walk into CVS or Walgreens and pick up an OTC cannabinoid pain reliever, possibly even a sleep aid.

In today's are-you-fucking-kidding-me news: Florida's anti-weed fight was fueled by money meant for children's health care.
A grand jury found $10M was misappropriated, with $8.5M landing in the committee fighting legalization. No one was charged.

The Chinese are buying land and growing cannabis here at scale. Prohibition does this.
The Chinese were here to run illicit booze 1920-1933 as well...guess when they stopped that?
We end prohibition, we end cartels. Not hard.

I’m not sure the process of ending prohibition of cannabis can get any dumber.
Ohio legal marijuana prices are significantly higher than those in neighboring Michigan—an analysis that comes shortly after lawmakers passed a bill that makes it a crime to possess cannabis purchased legally in another state.

The global cannabis revolution is here, and I feel like an absolute contrarian autist, because no one else sees it, and almost everyone laughs when I tell them I’m all in on it
It will all look so obvious in hindsight…
Bernie Sanders introduced a bill to seize 50% of any AI startup that crosses $200M in revenue.
The same anti-prosperity bloc spent the year trying to ban startup acquisitions, blocking the only exit 85% of founders ever get.
This is a war on building startups in America.
At some point building stops being about proving yourself.
It becomes about understanding yourself.
Why you pursue certain goals.
Why certain patterns repeat.
Why ambition alone does not create meaning.
The external game eventually forces confrontation with the internal one.
At a certain level you realize civilization itself is built on symbolic systems.
Money.
Brands.
Nations.
Status.
Identity.
Markets.
None exist physically in the way we experience them psychologically.
Humans grant meaning to abstractions, then those abstractions begin shaping reality.
While millions of seniors suffer through sleepless nights and chronic pain, a DC lobbying group just sued to make sure they keep suffering.
Smart Approaches to Marijuana (SAM) filed a federal lawsuit yesterday against HHS and CMS — demanding an emergency court order to block Medicare patients from accessing legal, physician-supervised cannabinoid therapy. Tomorrow. The program launches tomorrow. And SAM wants a judge to kill it before a single grandmother gets relief.
Here's what they're so afraid of:
→ A CMS Innovation Center program allowing participating ACOs and oncology providers to offer Medicare beneficiaries federally legal hemp-derived cannabinoid products
→ Capped at $500/year per patient
→ Products must be ≤0.3% THC, ≤3mg THC/serving, non-inhalable, and third-party tested
→ Requires physician oversight, shared decision-making, and an approved implementation plan
→ Testing covers potency, pesticides, heavy metals, solvents, and microbials
Read that list again. This is the most tightly regulated cannabinoid access program the federal government has ever created. And SAM's position is that it shouldn't exist.
Their legal argument? CMS skipped formal rulemaking and exceeded its authority. They want the court to declare the entire program unlawful and permanently block it.
But let's talk about who SAM actually is.
SAM is a political organization — not a research institution, not a patient group — that has spent 13 years fighting every cannabis reform effort in America. State legalization. Federal rescheduling. Medical access. All of it. They have never met a cannabinoid policy they didn't try to destroy.
And now their target is elderly cancer patients and Medicare beneficiaries whose doctors want to offer them a legal, tested, plant-derived option for sleep and pain — instead of another prescription.
The plaintiffs include SAM, the Drug Free America Foundation, and Cannabis Industry Victims Educating Litigators. They added one Medicare beneficiary for standing. One. Because they couldn't find more who wanted to sue for less access to care.
Patients deserve more options, not fewer. Especially the most vulnerable among us.
SAM disagrees.
Let that sink in.

Before anyone accuses me of being anti-alcohol:
I was on a serious path, a real quest, to become a Master Sommelier.
Wine wasn’t escapism for me, it was study, craft, history, restraint.
I’m not a prohibitionist. Never have been.
Which is exactly why watching people trip over themselves to defend alcohol while demonizing marijuana is laughable.
Alcohol doesn’t get protected because it’s safer.
It gets protected because it’s culturally entrenched.
It’s the drug of boardrooms and backyard barbecues.
The unspoken companion of meetings, negotiations, stress, celebration, grief.
What would CEOs, doctors, and investment bankers do without their scotch?
What would half of corporate America look like without a drink in hand?
Alcohol kills hundreds of thousands every year.
Its withdrawal can literally kill you.
It fuels cancer, liver failure, violence, and addiction, and we still call it “tame.”
Marijuana isn’t harmless. Nothing is.
But it doesn’t come close to alcohol’s body count.
If alcohol were introduced today, it would never be legalized the way it is now.
So let’s be honest about what this debate really is.
It’s not about safety.
It’s about which drugs the powerful prefer and which ones they’re comfortable shaming.
“Weed use leads to becoming potheads”
:a person who frequently smokes marijuana
Can’t make this shit up… sobriety rotting his brain.
Replying to @lynssss3125
Even assuming there are no physical health problems with weed, everyone can see that weed use leads to becoming potheads. Not all toxic outcomes are physical health related.

Humans and AI share a problem: neither knows how to say ‘I don’t know’.
Which will learn how to do so faster?
I'm getting a bit suspicious why everyone on the same exact day starts tweeting how weed is now suddenly bad
One of the things that makes weed so dangerous is that its users have a totally fanciful, almost supernatural faith in the substance itself. Alcohol can be dangerous, but everyone who drinks alcohol knows that and will admit it. You'll never hear anyone argue that there are no dangers or downsides to alcohol. But most pot smokers honestly believe, or have convinced themselves, that there is no downside to their drug of choice. You can get high every day for 50 years and nothing bad will happen. There are no tradeoffs, they insist. Literally all of the data, all of the research, all of our experience, not to mention basic common sense, conflicts with this belief, but they don't care. The average pot smoker is much more likely to smoke in excess precisely because the whole mythology of pot is that there is no such thing as excess.

🚨 Alert: There's a coordinated push in America to demonize cannabis right now.
Don't let misinformation win. I've been posting tons of medical & scientific studies proving its benefits.
