This comment was under a quote of my post, but for the most part, it seems to be a reply to what GoldenBud has been saying, rather than what I've been saying. Do you have any links to studies about this? I'd be interested in checking them out. From what I've seen, I wouldn't be any more...

I may be misunderstanding you, but I think you may have dependence and addiction mixed up. Addiction is a matter of neurologically/psychologically driven behavior. Dependence, on the other hand, is a matter of one's body needing something. That's why gambling is generally considered an...

This isn't necessarily true. Some people can smoke a cigarette or do cocaine one time, and one time only. It's risky, and not advisable, but it's doable. Anything that causes dopamine to spike can cause an addiction, even if it isn't a chemical itself (e.g. pornography or gambling). The...

Ah, ok. I was curious if you were differentiating between physical danger from withdrawals and distress/discomfort, because other than medically dangerous effects, I'm not sure how beneficial it is to try to separate "physiological" vs "psychological" addiction/dependency, given the fact that...

"Someone with more medical knowledge may correct me, but this is my understanding." To which claim(s) are you referring, here? Whether you want to use Cannabis or not, is your own personal choice. I have no preference on that matter. That said, I wouldn't say that not noticing any...

I'm at ~325 days give or take 1-2 days. I feel much better than I did for the first several weeks, however, not better at all than I did before day 1. I still want to do some more reviewing of the research on Cannabis' effects on the brain, mental health, the cardiovascular system, the...

Any reaction on your fingers/palms? For some reason, that area seems to be a bit more resistant, which is odd. Also, any reaction from smoking/vaping/eating it?

Hey, bringing this back to see if anyone new has any experience with this, and/or if anyone old has any new experiences. *Note* I am NOT suggesting or recommending that anyone experiment with any of the following actions to answer the question. I am just curious, if you have any prior...

Listening to good music is always very enjoyable to me, when vaping with a very low tolerance. It feels so much more immersive and powerful than it does when I'm sober. It may also be worthwhile to avoid driving your tolerance back up to the level that it was prior to your break, so that you...

Didi you ever get any results on this with your blood tests?

74 and still working out! Good for you, man!

I'm going to do more research, and I'll share my findings in the medical section, as this isn't really the thread for it, but Huberman isn't simply conflating all types of vaporization. Here are two studies that support the idea of there being endothelial cell damage with dry herb vaporization...

Have you tried strains that have a higher CBD:THC ratio? Maybe 1:5 or even 1:1? You could also add pure CBD isolate.

Why do you feel that way? Headaches? Body aches? Inflammation? I'm curious about the cause of the correlation (is it no weed causing a withdrawal, or is weed taking care of an inflammatory/pain issue that flares up when it is no longer being treated). Sleep is my main struggle, without weed. I...

I don't know much about it, but be careful with the "Delta-8" or "Delta-10" bud that's really just hemp sprayed with some concentrate. I'm personally going to avoid the stuf that they sell in delis. Lol Btw, something that may cause sexual dysfunction, which I haven't seen mentioned in this...

It's not out of the realm of possibility, but ED definitely doesn't seem to be a common side effect (unlike with alcohol consumption), from what I've read.. This may actually be the first time I've seen someone bring it up, in over 9 years of forum surfing. If not, I can't remember the last...

I may be missing it, but is there a 19mm GonG for the XL unit, or just the SonG? Also, I have a couple of questions about the shellac thing, before placing an order for an XL: 1. Where exactly is the shallac applied? I'm assuming it's not in the vapor path, as that's not wooden, but how does...

Hey, welcome aboard! I do the breathing before martial arts training, sometimes, and I have tried the pushups on an exhale. I don't remember my record but I think it was 81. I'll have to try it again. Lol The book is great, and yea, I really liked that video. I've watched it several times...

Ok. that clears it up. That sounds pretty sick.

So, what's the deal with the XL? I'm not being sarcastic. I'm just wondering what I'm missing. I get that it's a physically larger unit, but how does that make it better/functionally different than the OG (which I love, btw)? Is the "new heating engine" supposed to help with temp drop during...
