1.1 Scientist Smoke Session
Episode description
Riley and Miyabe peek under the covers of cannabis research and discuss some of the barriers to science that have contributed to the stigma. Miyabe summarizes the system in our bodies that is responsible for the effects and the medicinal benefits of Cannabis, and Riley explains why natural products that contain complex formulations have unique benefits in comparison to the traditional pharmaceutical route of a single isolated molecule. Take an inside view of Riley and Miyabe’s team chemistry and how they hope to change the status quo! Up next: the science behind cannabis and all types of pain, and how the endocannabinoid system is a key regulator by multiple mechanisms.
