Because in a few cases there with THC, she wasn't telling the scientifically/evidence based information, but rather speaking on assumptions and opinion. For example schizophrenia - there is zero evidence it increases one's chance of having it, but rather bringing forth an episode from an "existing schizophrenic" is correlated, not caused.

For just over 20 years I had been taking Paxil and Klonopin daily so I could function dealing with C-PTSD for about 3 years I was on Oxycontin for arthritis pain. One of my doctor visits I was asked if I would be willing to give cannabis a try, I did not think it would help all that much I have smoked it many times before. I studied it got my card and now I do not use any prescriptions, just cannabis and it is doing me wonders. Losing the side effects alone from prescriptions was fantastic. With that said I found this talk very interesting but if a person is living in a constant state of fight, fight, or flight (used fight twice on purpose) would THC be the perfect key? Not only did she dismiss CBD she did not mention all the other cannabinoids and terpenes, cannabis is far from being all about THC and CBD but people are stuck there.

THC does not replace anandamide. Anandamide is not even regularly produced, it can only happen when the body needs it. The cannabinoids also naturally down regulate, and if there was excess THC in the body it will not oversaturate the receptors but eliminate itself via plasma. THC cannot damage the mind as people say to put it. Regarding anxiety and more, depending on the dose and mindset is what affects it. The feelings people said about feeling unreal, depersonalization, and just blissed out from general living, is mentioned in Eastern philosophy and quantum physics. They make it clear, that this reality is only as real as it's perceiver.

The levels of stress people experience overwhelms the endocannabinoid system. That's why we have so much inflammation and stress-related diseases. Why don't doctors talk this negatively about Xanax, or Valium, or Klonopin, or any of the drugs prescribed for depression and anxiety? I've known several people whose lives were totally disrupted by these drugs.

Great elegant talk! For me the gist is this: Honeymoon with weed legalization is over and now we should figure out what this stuff really does to our bodies. So basically we are in a middle of a massive social experiment. And as ever since runs behind the giant Cannabis industry.

Great presentation. Thank you. These are very insightful findings. I'd like to see studies that compare medications/herbal interventions with lifestyle support changes that enhance the body's ability to self-sooth and self-regulate such as exercises or stimulating pressure points. Comparing it between no intervention and medication/herbal intervention doesn't give an accurate depiction of our choices. If we discount the help our own body provides for us when given the opportunity, we set ourselves up for dependences and further complications.

When I stopped taking an SSRI, it threw me into the worst depression, because my natural serotonin production had been horribly down regulated. Nicotine has a similar effect in how powerfully it down regulates serotonin. That's why people struggle to such a degree quitting smoking. Nicotine is very addictive. Quitting SSRIs was a nightmare that ended in a hospital emergency room. THC doesn't do anything like that. It doesn't down regulate to the same extent in most people; so it's not considered very addictive. It's my personal belief that I have never produced enough endocanabanoids. Microdoses of medical marijuana have helped me tremendously over a long period of time. Moreover I skip days with no ill effects.

It is very interesting to hear this..., but I live in Europe and here THC is not allowed. So we have very good Quality from CBD and this is so helpful for People, without intoxicant or psychological change...! For me would not possible to become healthy without it! I love it!

@CG Jung there are also up to 300 cannabinoid receptors while we have only really researched two ( cb1 / cb2) and speculated @ a third .... G protein-coupled receptors are in the 7 trans membrane super family of receptors, the largest grouping of cellular receptors in our bodies ... each depolarized Gi protein touches interior of cell 7 times before finalizing that signal with DAGL / FAAH ... a lot of the metabolic expression of cannabis also has to do with increasing / decreasing Epoxides and fatty acid binding proteins and TRPV1 .... basically activating the mechanisms that functionally drive the enzyme production that biodegrades lipids into signals ( biochemicals) ....

I've smoked my entire life. Not as much as some but I was a daily user for sure. At about 50 I cut back quite a lot and enjoyed not being high all the time which was refreshing. I'm a shy person by nature and weed made it worse which probably closed some doors. Regrets? No , I raised four great kids , quit alcohol , which would have and should have killed me , so all in all pot didn't ruin my life but I'm sure it changed it. I started having anxiety when I smoked (when the weed we grew exceeded twenty percent , lol ) so I pretty much quit. No withdrawls or issues there. Now at almost 63 I microdose a puff or two no and then. I told my kids , don't try pot! You might like it.

our ECS is sustained on essential fatty acids we consume in diet... with a lack of EFAs our endocannabinoid tone decreases and less signalling metabolites occur ( cannabinoids)... here is th epathways... EFAS via eicosanoids / prostaglandins / leukotrienes metabolize into PUFAs. oxygenated / phosphorylated PUFAs are endocannabionoids . our cell' phospholilipid bi-layer cleaves off those lipids in order to form them into signalling cannabinoids ( pro resolving mediators) . C-18 to C-22 lipophilic compounds in the 100 to 500g/mol range will be used fr signalling purposes in ECS...

That's not what she said though. She said because we have a large amount of receptors that each fit with certain molecular shapes, chances are that similarly shaped molecules (e.g. THC) can fit into the receptors also. And because a cannabis plant has many cannabinoids, chances are some of them fit into our cannabinoid receptors, which they do (again, e.g. THC). She isn't saying that it is random that cannabis affects us, she just explains how it can be that outside molecules work in our bodies.

Cannabis has been used for thousands of years (probably 10.000+ even) and the only ones complaining about it are the ones that ISN`T using it.. what´s up with that ey ;/? Also, what you call "dependence" I call "preference", as in; "I prefer to feel free enough to choose to take a delicious (imo) health-supplement if I feel like it, aslong as it doesn´t harm anyone."

It is also about dosage, quantity, frequency, set and setting...

I use (ok am addicted to) snuff tobacco (no longer smoke, use cannabis & alcohol) & I think tobacco must have some kind similar cannabinoidic effect, though milder? It's effect flutters between calmness and anxiety, depending like she says on what's going on, i.e. time, situation etc. I think smoking is similar also. Hoping to quit snuff soon so my system will have to become normalised. I expect it will be difficult.

Such excellent explanation, but leaving the topic on a negative note I though. Little emphasis on the benefits. Great overall

I liked the initial explanation of the endocannabinoid but when she was talking about using Cannabis it seemed like her presentation was more skewed to present the drawbacks and downside of Cannabis. She only briefly said that it may help with some symptoms and then quickly added that it may relieve some symptoms in the short term but make them worse in the long run and followed that by saying that scientists are developing medicines to target the endocannabinoid system. Hmmm... pharmaceutical companies can make lots of money off of medications.

Context makes the poison, as with any drug. Personally, I find cannabis to be quite useful to help me gain an appreciation for things I might normally find stressful. Especially with excercise, learning new ideas or practicing skills, all of which I can find quite tiring and frustrating, cannabis helps me focus on thr task. What's nice about this is that I can still train grit sober, which counteracts a lot of the stressors elsewhere. That being said, she is right that cannabis is not always completely benign. Some of the worst anxiety episodes I've had have been while I'm high, and can last for days after I clear up. Still, I am aware of the situations which cue them and have been getting better at avoiding those cues. The dependency issue is also quite real, and I have taken fasts from cannabis on a number of occasions to mitigate it, but it still can be very sticky if I'm not careful. Still, I think that with the right practices and knowledge, the benefits can easily outweigh the risks for me. I'll be interested to see what else they learn in the future

endocannabinoid tone determines it for everyone ... generally what the biochemistry shows is that ingesting exogenous C-21 Terpenophenolic moieties creates cellular plasticity in our cells ... this equates to learning and adaptation ... ECS is toggled by a variant of efficacious external lipids and terpenes from the diet ... as we are capable of moving around the world and experiencing all the lipids therein so does the ECS recognize al of those and transport them into lipid signaling sequences in the ECS ..ECS purpose is to maintain all cells that are part of metabolically active tissues via cellular homeostasis ( retrograde lipid signaling) ... I can present reports / links to this info if you are interested. 70 trillion cells each expressing around 15k biochemical cannabinoids a second per cell is ECS in action ... ECS connects all cells via lipid rafts / cellular back cross talk ( TRPV1)

Big pharma wants to create long term customers. These substances may threaten their bottom line hence the suppression

Here's your data: in America, for instance, tens of millions of people have been consuming THC on a regular basis since the mid-1960's. This group is certainly large enough to draw scientific conclusions from. Such as, there isn't a single negative health effect that can be identified within this group that doesn't exist in the whole population. There's been no increase in schizophrenia as a percentage of population. Cancer, diabetes, stroke and heart disease are in no way elevated in this group. Conversely, we know for a fact that tobacco, fast food, soft drinks and Republicans actually kill people on a regular basis, all in their own way. With tobacco, our response has finally reached a proportional level. With fast food, soft drinks and Republicans, we are firmly in denial. The attack on marijuana began back during the Depression. A decade later, Congress held a hearing on marijuana, wherein a doctor from the AMA testified that he could see no harmful effect from using marijuana. Rather, it made people calmer. One of the Congressman replied "doctor, if you don't have anything to say to help us, why don't you just go home?" That's America. We make up our mind about something and the persecution begins. So, while this video was interesting, Dr. Ross' conclusion that more data is needed, simply ignores the overwhelming data that exists.

So bottom line, try marijuana and be the first out of millions to acquire a horrible side effect from the weed not your actions while on the weed or keep taking opioids and be among the thousands that die from it, your choice.

ECS Biochemical pathways that your body uses for Omega three fatty acid metabolism are the same pathways that cannabis' actives act on as well. the arachidonate signalling system / Arachidonic acid cascade. phoshpolipids in the cell membrane create endocannabinoids, essential fatty acids are used to keep cells @ optimum lipid capacity ... ECS relies mostly on lipid metabolism of catalyzed enzymatic amides and intracellular ions

Yea it all fits so nicely with the theory that plants grow in the same dirt god grew U.S. from funny how that’s is though considering how many people don’t believe

Was going to down vote because this was nothing new and not the best presentation, BUT the down votes are exactly 420 so let's keep them that way

What Dr. Ross said about it causing some psychosis made sense because there are people that can't handle it for sure. But juxtaposed against alcohol and opioids you can say cannabis is safe in my opinion. We are on the cusp of THC infused food and drink going legal in October 2019 so it will be interesting to see what happens. A lot of people simply can not inhale without coughing so bad they decide right there cannabis doesn't work. Be interesting to see what they say the first time they get stoned later this year. There should have been more about CBD and what role it plays hopefully the good doctor can do another Ted Talk.
