The cannabis plant is one of the most versatile plants on earth, and quite possibly could be\u00a0the<\/em>\u00a0most versatile plant on the planet. Although, that can prove to be a two-edged sword of sorts, in that when cannabis\u2019 complexities interact with human biology it can yield some undesirable consequences.<\/p>\n
To be clear, I am not stating that cannabis is harmful in the manner that cannabis prohibitionists describe. However, it is a fact that when some people consume cannabis, particularly if they consume an amount of cannabis that exceeds what they are usually comfortable consuming, it can contribute to the person experiencing some level of anxiety.<\/p>\n
It is never fun to experience anxiety, whether it\u2019s a little anxiety or a lot of anxiety. Typically, the effects of THC are responsible for the person experiencing an increased level of anxiety, and fortunately, another cannabinoid appears to be able to offset those effects to some degree according to a recent study out of The Netherlands. <\/p>\n
Below is more information about it via a news release from\u00a0NORML:<\/p>\n
Maastricht, The Netherlands:\u00a0<\/strong>Subjects who consume cannabis containing equal amounts of THC and CBD report experiencing less anxiety than they do after consuming THC-dominant cannabis, according to\u00a0trial data\u00a0published in the journal\u00a0Psychopharmacology<\/em>.<\/p>\n
Dutch investigators assessed perceived anxiety levels in a cohort of 26 subjects following single doses of vaporized cannabis. <\/p>\n
Subjects vaporized cannabis samples that were either high in THC (13.75 mgs), high in CBD (13.75 mgs), contained equal amounts of both CBD and THC, or that contained no cannabinoids.<\/p>\n
