Heart disease is the number one cause of death in America. It is the number one cause of maternal mortality in Georgia. Sadly, we now have to add stalking to the long list of things causing heart disease in this country. It also unfortunate, that this kind of research can no longer be conducted in the current political climate. https://www.thehotline.org

We devote an entire chapter to heart disease in Why We Die, How To Live, the first book to explore America’s top causes of death, using evidence based holistic therapeutics and botanicals including cannabis: https://bit.ly/WhyWeDIEHowToLIVE

Study finds stalking can have both profound psychological and physiological effects

“Cannabis and psychedelics were highest-rated for improving ED (eating disorders) symptoms.

Prescription antidepressants were rated highly for overall mental health but not for ED symptoms, with the exception of fluoxetine for bulimia nervosa and lisdexamfetamine for binge-eating disorder. Alcohol, ni****ne, and to***co were rated as the most harmful drugs.”

The survey study was advertised internationally between 2022 and 2023. Over 5000 people completed the entire survey…90% were women and the most represented countries were Australia, the UK and America in that order. Cannabis, psilocybin and L*D were noted to be most helpful.

Further study is needed. It is known that the cannabinoid, THCV, decreases cravings for food. It would be wonderful to get a handle on the most helpful composition of cannabis chemotypes that decrease the symptoms of eating disorders.

This survey study explores the use of prescription and nonprescription drugs among respondents self-reporting their various eating disorders.

Should children go to school smelling like cannabis…especially if it’s because their parents or guardians are smoking around them? The larger and more important question is should adults smoke around minors regardless of the plant material? Shouldn’t to***co be included, too? What do you think?

Perhaps, sending the child to a special classroom/conference room so they can work on their lessons until someone could bring a change of clothes might be a better solution and less disruptive.

We discuss the combustion byproducts that are created whenever to***co or cannabis are smoked in our book, Why We Die, How To Live: https://bit.ly/WhyWeDIEHowToLIVE

“If our leaders are serious about building safer communities and supporting people struggling with drugs, they must invest in what works: stable housing, overdose prevention, and accessible treatment,” Maritza Perez Medina, director of federal affairs at the Drug Policy Alliance (DPA), told Ma*****na Moment. “Yet housing remains out of reach for many—and while it takes just 35 seconds to be arrested for a drug offense, it can take weeks to access treatment.”

“This executive order is alarming—it invites federal interference in local decisions and threatens to punish cities and community groups for pursuing proven public health solutions,” she said. “The potential loss of federal funds to organizations distributing naloxone that reverse a fentanyl overdose, syringes that stop the spread of infectious diseases, or other life-saving overdose prevention tools will only increase the risk of overdose deaths or illness to our loved ones.”

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order that’s receiving pushback from the drug policy reform community over directives targeting target harm reduction efforts and, specifically, safe consumption programs. The president’s EO is generally focused on homelessness, but it also includes...

Trying to mislead the public and continuing to pretend that cannabis is not medicine when the Department of Health and Human Services applied for a patent in 1999 and received said patent US6630507 in 2003 for “Cannabinoids as antioxidants and neuroprotectants”…is just rehashed, re**er madness 2025.

A prominent ma*****na prohibitionist group is rolling out a six-figure ad campaign directed at President Donald Trump, urging him not to move forward with cannabis rescheduling. Smart Approaches to Ma*****na (SAM) Action is behind three 30-second TV ads that claim rescheduling would empower Chinese....

Driving under the influence when you are impaired or intoxicated is a lot different than a patient using, for example, medical cannabis or pharmaceuticals to manage their anxiety or depression.

The presence of a substance does not automatically mean the person is impaired.

There is currently no accurate roadside test that definitively distinguishes between impairment and the presence of cannabis.

Roadside tests for ma*****na impairment that are widely used by police departments across the U.S. are “inadequate,” according to a newly published commentary by a Rutgers University law professor who is urging policymakers to take a more scientifically robust approach to transportation safety w...
