    Any kind of weed just makes me feel sick to my stomach. Like literally.. I might have some sort of allergy to it.

    She’s wrong about trichomes, they aren’t only found on female flowers.. males can produce them as well.

    Aw wish i knew about the questions.. My biggest question is why does it affect certain people with existential anxiety and hallucinations but not others. I myself get tracers and thinking the world is ending whenever I do it while everyone else around me that smoked is fine.

    • HouseMDaddict

      April 18, 2023 at 9:15 pm

      I often think it has to do with brain chemistry. Like most of the people that I know that are “fine” are those with already altered brain chemistry like mental illness such as depression, anxiety, etc. Most people who have normal brain chemistry have like panic attacks because their brain doesn’t need the “balancing” effect.

    April 18, 2023 at 9:07 pm

    If you do this in the future, I have a very real question that I need answered. There’s plenty of study done on THC and CBD, but there are many other cannabinoids. Where can information of these be found? I have Essential Tremor with Parkinsonism, and I’ve seen in the past different studies that point to a specific cannabinoid(other than THC or CBD) being very effective for tremors. I would love to find out specifics on this and which strains are high in it.

    1:56, As a weed scientist myself, wouldn’t this just be applicable to the natural flower itself? Ofc I believe she is right, I believe that the higher percentage buds (if honest) are most likely chemically altered with spray or soil nutrients.

    So much misinformation… Low for Wired. Get an MD to fact check at minimum.

    April 19, 2023 at 5:05 pm

    Interesting she says it isn’t hallucinogenic. The first few times I smoked weed, I was definitely hallucinating. Every now and again when I get REALLY stoned I have mild hallucinations.

      Are you sure your weed is clean and not laced?

      Sounds like you smoked something syntetic or a thc extract😮

  37. Greener01

    April 19, 2023 at 6:04 pm

    Uhhhh purified CBD is not effective? I found this response to be lacking context. There is an FDA approved drug called Epidiolex used in the treatment of epilepsy/seizures that contains nothing but CBD. Pretty sure the people who use that drug and the doctors that prescribe it would disagree with this response.

  57. AsylumOfSolitude

    April 20, 2023 at 6:09 pm

    I loved this video! My only quarrel was with the addiction question, which I felt was a bit biased of an answer. While it’s true that it’s not physically addictive and does not cause withdrawals, many have used the term “psychologically addictive” to say that they find it incredibly difficult to stop smoking, and always find a “reason” to keep smoking, no matter how dire the circumstances. As someone who’s been a smoker themselves, and surrounding by people who partake as well, I’ve seen it countless times where people just cannot quit smoking, even when they’re about to lose their car or something. That’s addiction.

    It would be nice if the federal government would admit that it lied to the whole world, arm-twisting every other country into signing off on bogus cannabis prohibition for over a hundred years.

  60. cowboy beebop

    April 20, 2023 at 6:17 pm

    I really don’t think higher thc strains are stronger in effect at all.
    Imo the strongest are 20-27% with a high terpene content.

    I have some at %20 that absolutely smacks.
    It’s blueberry pancakes and yes it taste like it sounds.

    Ive smoked fairly heavily for over 5 years now. The only definitive issue i feel people need to be aware of is the effect it has on your memory. When i was younger i used to remember things very vividly, but nowadays its difficult to remember simple things sometimes. If you can deal with that/ are looking for an easy life, go for it!

  74. Jeff Wick

    She should look deeper into world wide studies on the medicinal benefits! There are a lot more effective medicinal values then what she mentioned ! Also those studies depend on the person and their health. Such as how is their , exercise, h20 consumption and quality, mentality, what type of food they consume, etc

    Male plants DO have trichomes and DO produce cannabinoids, but not as abundantly as females. Also, trichomes are present on leaves, not just flowers, but again, to a far lesser extent and smaller size. The contents of the trichomes also differ between leaves and flowers.

    April 21, 2023 at 1:29 pm

    Hey let me correct one thing about sativa/indica differences, actually the thing that does help distinguish them is the level of a terpene called Myrcene, apparently strains with levels greater than 0.5% of Myrcene are sativa and less than that are indica dominant since all we have are some kind of hybrids anyway.

    I have a rare condition called Idiopathic Intercranial Hypertension and I use marijuana to help keep my cerebral fluid levels stable. It has to do the same thing with glaucoma and the eye pressure. Cerebral fluid puts pressure on the eyes and brain and when that pressure gets too much for my normal round of medicines, I just use a quick puff. Like a steroid inhalor but for my brain pressure. Luckily, I’m at no risk at loosing my left eye anymore. Just my everyday worries of brain herniation if I don’t keep those levels stable tho 🙃

    What exactly is a “cannabis scientist”?? I wish her exact title were provided, but regardless of her academic credentials, she does look extremely baked.

  100. Kimoki

    April 21, 2023 at 9:10 pm

    I’ve actually had psychedelic events using cannabis, usually associated with taking more than intended, but not always. There’ve only been about four, and I’m a daily user for three years now. So, I know it can stimulate a psychedelic event, but even among the few of us that do actually experience them, the events aren’t often. And for myself, there is no predictable dose of THC that will trip one (see what I did there? 🙂 ).

    It was always said that Indica/Sativa was closer related to the THC to Canabanoid ratio. Being that Canabanoids were sedative, so an “Indica” being say 50/50 would “couch lock” you more than a “Sativa” with say a 90/10 being mostly THC.

    Marijuana produces THC as a way to help propagate the species by offering a benefit to more advanced beings with the capability to farm, thus drastically benefitting the plants evolution.

    As an ex-9 year, daily marijuana smoker, it is not as safe as people make it out to be. It blocks REM sleep, and if smoked in abundant quantities, can be addictive in a sense. Hence the reason why you hear when people go on “tolerance breaks” they talk about their vivid dreams. If your body doesn’t get REM sleep it will take it one way or another, and sometimes in extreme ways.
    Edit: I admittedly wrote this before watching the whole video, and am actually pleased with how well she handled this and the depth of the questions that were asked. Good job, WIRED.

    About the indica Vs sativa question- i have a question myself. I smoke for anxiety & depression. whenever i smoke sativa or “sativa dominant hybrids” i almost always have panic attacks. even when i don’t know what strain or type it is prior to use. this has happened at multiple seshes with friends and family, only later to find out that it was sativa. (i would smoke the same exact weed alone & have panic attacks too, so it’s not a social anxiety issue)

    what could this be caused by? i really don’t think it’s a placebo affect. i had the same 2 different reactions to weed before i found out there was indica vs sativa. 🧐

    Great video, although she sort of glossed over the “10-30% of users develop a use disorder”. She’s right of course that it is waaay safer and less addictive than most other drugs, but speaking as somebody who was extremely and unhealthily dependent on weed for about 2 years, I wish I had known before starting that it had the potential to get that kind of hold over you. I’m 100% pro-legalization and de-stigmatization but I also think we need to be more honest about some of the risks involved and advise the public.

    Perception is really reality. We see weed as bad and dangerous so someone using weed everyday is automatically labeled as a bad thing, with no consideration for the fact that it has medical benefits as well. That many people opt for weed over a prescription pill, which they would also be taking everyday. It’s very helpful for anxiety, and for many that’s a daily struggle. That’s why we have to keep an open mind

    She has OBVIOUSLY never smoked weed. There are huge differences in indica vs sativa strains and the types and concentrations of terpenes each cultivar produces genetically. That’s precisely what gives each its individual unique effects. Smoke Kali Mist or Cannabiogen’s Destroyer, then some Pakistani 75 Landrace and tell me there’s no difference between indica and sativa. The MOST LUDICROUS STATEMENT EVER! THIS WOMAN IS A FRAUD!

I’m not against weed or anything, but if you’re gonna keep regurgitating disproven misinformation [to justify legalization] I’m out. In fact at this point so much bs is out there, I don’t blame people for genuinely believing in the “medical benefits” of weed lmao

    Also not the first time WIRED hosted a “scientist” that turned out to be an Art School dropout turned TED speaker. Kinda tiring ngl.

    I would dispute that the plant produces THC as anti-fungal protection. I have found across thousands of plants that the more THC trichomes a plant produces the more likely it is to get botrytis. The sticky glands trap water molecules which leads to bud rot as any outdoor grower knows. As somebody who grows both sativa and indica heirloom strains I would also dispute that there is no difference and wonder just how this was tested because the profiles are usually different not similar at all if you compared say landrace Thai with landrace Kush.

    I’d like to hear more about the first answer. Yes, it might be necessary for people with certain patholoies (still THC & CBD, well, are different things and different molecules). Smoking or consuming weed surely might be better than drinking everyday yet it doesn’t mean it should be done on a regular basis as a healthy person, does it?

    I have been underweight my entire life (57 years). Waaay back, when I was in my 20’s, my mom was so against my smoking weed. I quit smoking it. Dropped 7 lbs I definitely did not need to drop and my anxiety spiked to an time high. One trip to the doctor and three very expensive prescriptions later, which came with side effects, and I started smoking weed again. No prescriptions anymore. Gained my 7 lbs back and my anxiety (which I always have) was maintained. To be clear, I do not suffer withdrawals when I do not have pot, but I do suffer with loss of appetite and my anxiety can be overwhelming. I prefer the weed to the prescribed meds. I apologize for not remembering the name of the prescription, it did put weight on me, but was also giving me type 2 diabetes. So all in all, I’ll take the weed.
