Hi everyone!! Currently, the world society is suffering a resounding canon with respect to the point of view on cannabis, fortunately, since several scientific studies demonstrate the effectiveness it has to treat various disorders and diseases. If we put aside recreational use and focus directly on its benefits, we can see that the CBD helps to calm the nose and reduce stress, many conditions that can cause us the game of poker or life itself. When we try to do our best game, it is essential that our brain is neat and in its best form to give the best of us. I am a consumer and thanks to cannabis many of my problems have disappeared, such as anxiety and difficulty to stop consuming so much alcohol, I do not consider myself addicted to alcohol, but it is a problem in life and more than anything in poker . I would like to know the vision that the world has about cannabis and the relationship with poker.
Adding another drug to your arsenal is not the way do deal with an alcohol problem.
The marijuana strains grown for consumer use, both legally and illegally have a very small CBD to THC ratio, because they have been grown over the years selecting for increased THC which is the substance that makes people high, and is what recreational consumers are looking for.
The original wild marijuana plant contained more CBD than THC, but that strain had been lost.
The CBD benefits claimed by you (reduced stress and anxiety, opening up your upper airways, improved sleep and appetite) could all be more effectively achieved by physical exercise. Unfortunately, marijuana users tend to exercise less.
Yes, there's evidence that CBD helps certain individuals with intractable seizures, but that is hardly a reason for anyone to smoke THC
It's a dangerous game to try sugar coating drug use under some unproven health benefit claims. With the cannabis use now becoming legal in more and more countries, unfortunately there will be more and more promotion like that going on in the media. Where there's money there's advertising.
PS: I am not trying to be a party pooper here, just saying these things as an attempt to highlight the other side of the story and keep the thread balanced, after all this is an open forum, not a drug forum
We are adults and make our own choices in life, some are good and some are not. That's human nature
