High in the mountains of Northern India, cannabis has been a culinary fixture for centuries, especially bhang, a paste made from the leaves.

Some interesting recent cannabis research. Individual Terpenes were not associated with specific aromas …EXCEPT Terpinolene - associated with “citrus” & “chemical” aromas Limonene was NOT associated with “citrus” There's more to it than Terps & VSCs Summary: theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

"we cannot simply dismiss the experiences of thousands of people who report meaningful benefits from using cannabis for managing their pain." - Researchers at Johns Hopkins U., Arizona State U., and La Trobe U. in Australia theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl... #ChronicPain #Cannabis

Terpenes in cannabis and hemp flower 🌿🌺🥭 Love 'em or not, they're about all we measure right now 🤷 theamazingflower.com/pages/terpenes

Will you look at that? Only 2 naturally occurring cannabinoids have euphoric effects. That means there are 17 cannabinoids with unique effects that don't get you high. We owe it to patients to study these more than we do. Patients don't want to get high, they just want to get better 🤙 #Cannabis

Kids: please read the ENTIRE question before you answer it 😄

🚨Be wary of adverse event "studies" on cannabis and other drugs🤙 "By presenting mere statistical associations as ‘safety signals’, these publications can generate unjustified alarms with considerable impact on healthcare provider practices and patient behavior" retractionwatch.com/2025/09/16/e...

Cannabis flower prices drop dramatically during the first few years of legalization. $400 an oz just isn't sustainable for a mass (pun intended) market, industry peeps. Please don't build a business plan that requires it🙏 We need successful cannabis businesses 🤙

For those who think FDA-approval means safer drugs: "women treated with beta blockers had a higher risk of death, heart attack, or hospitalization for heart failure compared to women not receiving the drug." Maybe shut up about cannabis' lack of FDA approval 🙄 www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

Chronic pain relief isn't always just about traditional pain metrics. Patients report that cannabis "improves other important outcomes, such as role and social functioning, sleep quality, and opioid substitution, which are largely overlooked in clinical trials" pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40839511/

Another of the MANY studies that show cannabinoids can be very effective for treatment-resistant childhood epilepsy. If you don't support medicinal cannabis by now, you've obviously got another, rather cruel agenda. theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

Psychosis overview from the Cleveland Clinic: "Delusions. These are false beliefs that someone holds onto very strongly, even when others don’t believe them or there’s plenty of evidence that a belief isn't true" Just so we're clear: over 40% of U.S. voters qualify. Is it REALLY the cannabis?🤔

Hooray for 🇫🇮! Finland legally mandates coffee breaks. TWICE a day. If only their winter didn't last 8 months. www.islands.com/1913896/nord...

How to tell if your state or country's cannabis laws are written for shareholders, not citizens: Cannabis is legal to BUY, but never to grow your own 🌱

Full spectrum cannabis extract for the win🌱 If only it worked on parasitic people, too 😄

For over 4200 veterans with coronary artery disease: "cannabis use [smoking] was not independently associated with increased cardiovascular events over a mean of 3.3 years of follow-up." Study published July 21, 2025 in the journal 'Circulation' 🌱 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40686207/

"News you might have missed" Laser peacocks! 😄 arstechnica.com/science/2025...

Just a reminder: "Medical cannabis is more than a business—it’s a lifeline for millions who rely on it." Patients made legalization possible. Let's not throw them under the bus for higher profit margins. Okay? cannigma.com/cbd/recreati...

Often overlooked cannabis truth: THC is a minor cannabinoid ro patients. They just want to feel better, not high. There are LOTS of cannabinoids that don't get you high and have proven beneficial effects. Crazy idea: let's focus on those for medicinal use 🌱🤙

Surprising weed science note of the day: The last half of a joint has the most cannabinoids, or is "stronger" 🌱💨 theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

Anxiety and depression patients reported daily - before and after taking cannabis medicine "Significant decreases from baseline in anxiety and depression were observed" over 6 months Real-time data per dose of cannabinoid medicine is pretty valuable we think 🤙 theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

A science-backed recommendation for your Monday: Daydream fresh wave of neuroscience has determined that daydreaming is actually a great thing for the mind 🤙 www.earth.com/news/daydrea...

Dear anti-cannabis researchers, donors, & media, Data for your next article: Among hospitalized patients with chronic pancreatitis (900,000+)...the cannabis users had: 53% lower chance of dying 27% lower chance of getting pancreatic cancer (you're welcome)🤙 theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

"mental decline among those who smoke was slightly less than in those who don't by a measure of 1.3 IQ points." Note: There is MUCH more positive research about cannabis than negative. It just doesn't get media coverage for some reason 🤔 futurism.com/the-byte/sci...

“anchoring” — wherein a clinician fixates on an initial piece of information (in this case, cannabis use) and fails to consider alternative or concurrent diagnoses.

SMALL doses of full-spectrum cannabis extract and chronic pain. A new study: 65% of the patients experienced a reduction in pain symptoms of at least 50% and 26% of the patients discontinued use of all other pain medications or anti-inflammatory drugs theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

Hmmm, I wonder if that cannabis heart "study" controlled for this 😉 www.marijuanamoment.net/marijuana-us...

Another edition of 'Cannabis is much more than THC' and getting high. CBDV and CBD show some pretty amazing antifungal properties, acting much faster than the standard prescription treatment on Cryptococcus neoformans, a WHO Critical Priority pathogen. theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

This is a very good overview of the anti-cannabis research industry.

Happy Canada Day to ALL! 🇨🇦 EVERYONE who appreciates the benefits of legal cannabis owe you. Thank you for setting an excellent example for the rest of us - in cannabis...and in life. Cheers, friends!🤙

Kudos to Juan GanjaGod for creating this outstanding reference illustration of the female cannabis flower! Thank you sir, wherever you are 🤙

There are SO many flaws in the new heart meta-study that made headlines EVERYWHERE, it's as if the authors were actually pharma marketing execs 🙄 "the researchers have produced results that are scientifically meaningless and politically motivated." cannabis.net/blog/opinion...

From the rather large list of cannabis' cannabinoids that don't get you high, but have promise for patients: THCA THCA is the direct parent of THC. It has one extra carboxyl group (circled in blue) that keeps it from interacting too much with the CB1 receptors 🧠 Relief for some without the high 🤙

Every Media outlet in the world: CANNABIS KILLS YOUNG PEOPLE & CAUSES HEART ATTACKS AND STROKES!! Quote from the study's authors: "most included studies (79%) were cross-sectional, a design providing a poor level of evidence unable to establish the causal link between outcome and exposure" 🤦

Observational, not clinical. Which means they cannot rule out other factors with equal if not greater impact than cannabis. So, it is a claim with 'some' science behind it but certainly not enough to make a definite connection between cannabis and greater risks to heart health.

THC's little brother (from a different mother), THCV is reported to help with focus, appetite suppression, and blood sugar...without getting you high, which most patients prefer. Someday we'll find that these "secondary cannabinoids" really aren't so "secondary"🥇 📣 Cannabis is much more than THC!

Cannabis is MUCH more than THC! There are over 100 cannabinoids 🤙 "THCV appears to modulate key metabolic pathways including appetite regulation, glucose homeostasis, and insulin sensitivity by antagonizing CB1 receptors and partially activating CB2 receptors" theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

This study found no link between cannabis use and increased cardiovascular risk. theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

The "new" cannabis and heart problems study making the rounds today is just another review/meta-study rehashing old, biased data. In the authors' words: "a significant portion of included studies was at moderate to high risk of bias" A study not included: theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

40 cats 😸 in a June 2025 placebo-controlled study on noise-induced fear ⛈️: "These results indicate that CBD could be an effective option for the treatment of noise-induced fear." pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40509107/

George Orwell was truly ahead of his time. 41 years to be exact.

Cannabis #MoleculeMonday is now a thing we heard. So be it🤙

Interesting for sure 🤔 But please don't tell the cannabis edibles marketing folks 🙄 thehill.com/policy/healt...

😁🦷🪥 & cannabis? "This is the first to show that short-term exposure to hemp extract and CBD promoted gingival fibroblast wound healing, demonstrating that hemp extract and CBD have potential benefits in the treatment of oral inflammation and ulcers." theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

There as SO many promising cannabis compounds beyond THC. "Cannabidiol (CBD), which is non-psychoactive, and cannabidivarin (CBDV), which is psychoactive, both killed C. neoformans adroitly, acting even faster than current antifungal treatments." www.sciencealert.com/cannabis-com...

This study found no link between cannabis use and increased cardiovascular risk. theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...

Dear BlueSky: Just wondering... Why isn't "build your own algorithm" a thing yet? How hard can it be in the AI age? Sincerely, *Everyone on Earth*

Small sample sizes of cannabis studies got you down? How's data from over 3.3 million rheumatoid arthritis patients? That's a lot, right? theamazingflower.com/blogs/articl...
