I'd be curious to see this done with cbd gummies. It would be easy to create a placebo, especially since the users shouldn't be expecting the effects of thc.
Cannabis is why my secondary progressive MS went away. I still have lesions, but they're all shrinking. Whole foods vegan allowed me to become stronger, lose weight… I'm 100% a green lover. 🌱💪🏽💚
“Thirteen patients were included” in that first study? Just 21 in one of the subsequent studies. That’s nowhere near the statistical power one would need to test for a difference (unless each patient had lots of records taken over time). I wish these details were acknowledged and discussed in the videos. When they aren’t it makes me wonder if results are cherry-picked to support a particular narrative or video script.
Thank you, Dr. Greger, for your research, videos, daily dozen app, translating medical jargon into human speech, and PUTTING IT TO THE TEST! Oh–and SAVING LIVES in the process! A big thank you to the people behind the scenes too!
I had a friend who spent most of his life in pain and used for that pain, and he pointed out that it didn't cause him to have less, pain, just to care less about it, also while pain relief is great if that relief causes you to do things that result in more damage because you essentially cant feel what you are doing that might help explain the increase of disease progression. If you have a broken leg and you get great painkillers so you are walking around on it before it is healed, it will never heal, I understand in some diseases that is a less apt comparison but it does need consideration.
LoL good video as always. I've watched NF for years. I remember back maybe 15 years ago, looking health related things up online, while still difficult, it was manageable with persistence. Today? It's impossible for issues that dont have a clear answer.
Sites literally give completely opposite advice in a very arrogant no it all way… I still try and weed out what relevant info they have but they all copy and paste each other for at least 3 pages on Google, I gave up after that.
You guys do an excellent job showing varying CASE STUDIES that both prove and oppose your findings. With relevant sections of the case studies highlighted. That's so incredibly important and I hope you all get the recognition you deserve. I for one, very much appreciate it. Thank you.
Well, why not pick people that don't feel the psychoactive effects of cannabis for a bubble blind study? I have now met quite a few people that can smoke as much cannabis as they want without any effects. So if we were to put a group of these against a group that gets a placebo there would be no way for any of them to know.
Smoking is dumb. Its a whole food plant. All 20 Amino acids. You can activate the THC in the oven then put your bud in a pepper grinder and eat the healthiest plant on the planet.
Come on! They felt better, so they ramp up their unhealthy appetites because there was improvement. It's due to an increase in sugar, gmo bread and preservatives. In conclusion, they were given a sedative and they had no self discipline. EXERCISE and EAT YOUR GREENS BEYATCHES!
To me it's pretty clear that cannabis was relieving their symptoms and allowing them to eat more inflammatory food leading to the negative long term outcomes.
Interesting… thanks so much for your input on these studies. Wow i thought cannabis was a good plant. But i don't want to end up having a higher chance of getting on the operating table. EEP
OR… Cannabis caused the munchies? Eating solids during a flare gives me nightmare pain – guessing it's possible that pain might signal damage being done by those solids passing thru inflamed mucosa?
No way I'd take tincture if cannabis might cause me to stray from my liquid diet! Have they developed a strain that removes munchies? If yes, I'd certainly try that tincture.
I know smoking marijuana can have some of the same issues as cigarettes. I wonder if there would be any associated risk with CBD or edibles? Either way I'm allergic so it doesn't help me
For all of the videos on cannabis, see: https://nutritionfacts.org/topics/marijuana/. -NF Team
Indica, sativa or hybrid which strain is best for pain
It helps and that is what you forgot
THANKS4GIVING
Cheers Owen Wilson
Medical marijuana patients use CBD which has no psychoactive effects. Skip the THC

How do you fake a joined? Canabis has such a unique smell and probably taste?
Love the balanced info!

LOL. All these weed pushers will never accept that weed isn't a miracle cure for everything.

Smoking? so 1970s
Or could the cannabis users have gone on longer masking symptoms when the underlying disease was spreading, leading to needing surgery?

Covering up symptoms in the long run is never a good thing. Going vegan is the answer
Thanks!

i smoke weed every day and my bowels feel great!
What about cannabis as an edible? Does the difference in the administration of the "drug" change the outcome?
To me it's pretty clear that cannabis was relieving their symptoms and allowing them to eat more inflammatory food leading to the negative long term outcomes.

These are all several years old articles. Dr G needs to focus more on new science.
Can you do a video on pediatrics epilepsy and CBD oil?
Interesting. Makes me kind of glad I don't use cannabis. Thanks for the info.
