Cannabis for ADHD: Could Specific Doses Unlock Focus and Calm?
People on the higher dose, and people with milder ADHD scores, were more likely to say they had stopped all their ADHD medications.
Milder ADHD scores also went along with lower anxiety scores.
Milder ADHD scores were linked to higher intake of one compound, cannabinol (CBN), but not to higher intake of THC.
Overall, using more medical cannabis compounds was linked to stopping ADHD medication.
Higher CBN intake was linked to milder self-reported ADHD symptoms.

Study finds link between runner’s high and cannabis like molecules in long-distance runners
A first-of-its-kind study, published in the journal BMC Medicine, has found that long-distance running can lead to an increase in the amount of THC-like molecules in the body.
Researchers at the University of Duisburg-Essen found that levels of anandamide – an endocannabinoid sometimes called the “bliss molecule” – increased throughout a marathon and were still raised 45 minutes after runners had finished. The rise was much smaller when the same people walked the same route for the same amount of time...

Vermont is preparing for interstate cannabis commerce.
New legislation allows the governor to enter into cross-border cannabis trade agreements once federal law, DOJ guidance, or other federal actions permit it.
Bullish for scaled California operators like @LeefBrands.

🌿 This legislation is long overdue. No patient should have to choose between their medicine or their job.
Patients who take traditional medications, including opioids and benzodiazepines, do not face punishment in the workplace unless their on-the-job performance is impaired. Patients who consume medical cannabis during their off-hours should be treated equally.

New modified CBD compounds dissolve up to 14x better in water and kill lung cancer cells more effectively!
Anti-cancer effects:
Some modified versions (especially 1a, 1b, and the L-valine one) killed lung cancer cells better than regular CBD.
One version (1a) also stopped cancer cells from migrating and forming new colonies.
Conclusion:
By attaching different chemical groups to CBD, the researchers could dramatically improve how well it dissolves and, in some cases, make it more effective at fighting lung cancer cells in lab tests.

44-year study showed Cannabis users showed LESS brain ageing/decline!
Main finding: Men who had ever used cannabis actually showed less drop in their cognitive (thinking) abilities over the decades compared to men who never used it.
Among the cannabis users, things like starting at a young age or using it frequently did not lead to worse long-term cognitive decline.
Overall conclusion: In this large group of men tracked for over 40 years, cannabis use did not cause harmful long-term effects on age-related brain aging or cognitive decline.
