The CRC is currently enrolling for a new research study examining how reducing cannabis use may impact sleep and overall well-being

This study looks at changes in sleep, thinking skills, daily functioning, and quality of life over time as cannabis use is reduced. Understanding these relationships helps advance research on cannabis use and health outcomes.

Today, April 20th (4/20), is often associated with cannabis use.
At CRC, we recognize this as an opportunity to share information, promote awareness, and support informed decision-making.

Cannabis affects everyone differently, and understanding both potential risks and benefits is important. If you or someone you know is interested in learning more about cannabis use, prevention, or research opportunities, we're here to help.

Our goal is to provide education, resources, and support โ€” without judgment. ๐Ÿ’ฌ

Researchers have identified 100+ cannabinoids in the cannabis plant and many are still being studied today. ๐Ÿ”ฌ

Here are a few you may not know:
โœจ CBG โ€” sometimes called the โ€œmother cannabinoidโ€
๐Ÿ˜ด CBN โ€” often associated with relaxation and sleep
โšก CBC โ€” being studied for potential mood-related effects

Science is still learning how these compounds may impact health, which makes cannabinoid research an exciting and growing field! ๐ŸŒฑ

๐Ÿง  Research Spotlight: Cannabis use and brain health continue to be areas of active research.

A recent study examining middle-aged and older adults found that cannabis use was associated with larger brain volume in several regions and better performance on certain cognitive tasks, including memory and attention. Researchers noted that outcomes varied based on frequency of use and emphasized that cannabis effects are complex and still not fully understood.

Findings like these highlight the importance of ongoing, nuanced research to better understand how cannabis interacts with the brain across the lifespan.
