@Allkinds @jeffowski Also, the munchies are very much not good for chronic health.
You might be able to blame the weight problem on funyuns and cola, but we all know those are only there because of the weed, lol.
@LouisIngenthron @Allkinds -- Again, this is not an issue for medical users of cannabis. Once you have acclimated to the cannabis, you have the opposite effect of not being able to eat anything unless you toke.
Munchies are a recreational user issue mostly.
@jeffowski @Allkinds That's only partly true. Yes, it does have a moderating effect where you generally aren't hungry unless you toke, but once you do, you'll still have an appetite far exceeding that of someone who is not a user at all. More importantly, usage suppresses feelings of fullness, and that doesn't seem to change between recreational and habitual users.
@LouisIngenthron @Allkinds -- Again, I would like to see a source.
The only cannabis studies on weight focus on how it balances blood sugars better than without. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23684393/
