I am a legitimate medicinal marijuana user, however, and my arthritis, aches and pains have come back. With that being said, I am trying to find research on (but have had no luck) whether or not CBD oil would also suppress REM sleep, or if using that would allow me to figuratively have my cake and eat it too? I want to be able to continue dreaming lucidly, vividly, and nightly as I currently am, but I also don't want to have to deal with the pain. Thank you for your time.\"\n_____________________\nHello,\nAccording to one study, similar to THC, CBD was shown to reduce the time spent in REM sleep. The study also suggested that CBD reduced stage 4 sleep. \nhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0014579306008155\nHowever, in order to better understand how CBD affects your own ability to dream, I recommend that you consume pure CBD at the same time you would take your \"standard\" cannabis. If you still don't dream much, try taking the dose earlier, so that the CBD and or/THC has more time for elimination. \n\n\ndrkim\n_____________________\nThe effect of cannabis on REM sleep duration is well established, and most regular cannabis users report increased dreaming upon stopping their cannabis use.  I agree with Dr. Kim that you should just go ahead and try pure CBD to see if it affects your dreaming.  Here is some evidence that CBD does not, in fact, disturb the normal sleep cycle https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5895650/   \nOf course, I also want to note that I'm not aware of any adverse health effects attributable to the shortening of REM sleep in regular cannabis users.  There is a potential health consequence of REM deprivation, but no evidence at all that the changes observed with cannabis use in any way constitute 'deprivation.'  For some people (eg PTSD patients) this reduction in dreaming is, in fact, experienced as therapeutic, especially when subjectively compared with their former sleep quality.  \n\ndrelkind","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11740-markdown","title":"Which fat is best to feel the effects of THC?","slug":"which-fat-is-best-to-feel-the-effects-of-thc","content":"\"Someone told me that you have to have fat with your marijuana, specifically THC, to feel anything or get high. Is that true? And if it is, which fat is best -- I bought tinctures with olive oil and other stuff with coconut oil. Are they both good for THC?\"\n_____________________\nThat is partly true. While some edibles containing THC that are consmed bond to your body fat, there are plenty of others that bond in different ways. For example, several products that we carry, such as the Level tablinguals or the Petra mints, the THC is absorbed through your saliva glands for a faster, more precise dosing. \n\nnsavelli\n_____________________\n\nTHC is \"fat-soluble\". \n\nThe word “soluble” actually means “able to be dissolved.” When THC is classified as 'fat-soluble' it has to do with how THC is absorbed and stored in the body.\n\nNot all fats break down THC equally. Olive oil was once one of the more desirable options as it absorbs healthy nutrients easier than butter. Coconut oil seems to have taken the top ranking by being the best at cannabinoid absorption due to its ability to break down cannabis very well because of coconut oil's high levels of saturated fat. Bottom line, the higher the saturated fat levels the better it breaks down THC because THC is fat soluble.\n\nCoconut oil has the highest saturation rate followed by palm kernal oil, and then butter.\n\nCoconut oil may be your healthiest bet but its not the least expensive so you can try unsalted butter as well. Personally, a nice greasy cheese pizza works well for me ;) \n\nBartSmart","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11731-markdown","title":"I'm having surgery. How far in advance should I stop taking edibles? ","slug":"im-having-surgery-how-far-in-advance-should-i-stop-taking-edibles","content":"\"Should I stop taking CBD oil prior to surgery? If so, how far in advance should I stop?\"\n_____________________\nHello, \nThere are no established guidelines regarding the matter. However, if vaping the oil and undergoing general anesthesia, in order to reduce the chance of respiratory complications during and after sugery, I recommend that you discontinue for at least one week in advance. Also, very high doses of CBD may possibly reduce the body's ability to form blood clots. Your anesthesiologist will/should make sure that ability is not compromised. Furthermore, CBD can lower blood pressure, which may also make things a bit trickier for your anesthesiologist. Regardless, you should fully disclose the matter to your surgeon and anesthesiologist. Also, in order to evaluate your specific case properly, I advise that you consult with a medical cannabis physician. This information should not be taken as medical advice. \n\ndrkim\n_____________________\n  \nThere are many differing opinions on this topic. Since medical cannabis is relatively new in today’s medicine more research needs to be done in this area. I would consult with your surgeon or anesthesiologist for a recommendation as it may interfere with your anesthesia. I agree with Dr. Kim,  you should stop vaping for a least one week before your surgery due to the possibility of respiratory complications.\n\nhelenanp","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9236-markdown","title":"What type and oral amount of CBD oil would be good to control an essential tremor?","slug":"what-type-and-oral-amount-of-cbd-oil-would-be-good-to-control-an-essential-tremor","content":"\n_____________________\nAlthough there are many patient reports of benefit from CBD in essential tremor, and while the internet is full of dosage recommendations, there is little in the medical literature to guide an answer to your question.  CBD has a remarkably benign toxicity profile, and this makes cautious experimentation a plausible strategy.  I would only consume CBD products from a medical cannabis dispensary, trying to avoid industrial hemp based sources, and I would consider using not just one of the 100 cannabinoids but perhaps a more holistic preparation also containing some THC, or perhaps whole plant extract from cannabis bred to express mostly CBD (eg. Harlequin strain).  Essential tremor often waxes and wanes with stress level, intensity of attention, and many other factors influenced by cannabis, and the relaxation cannabis can promote might be an important factor.

Usually, we do not want to prolong Alzheimers, we want to prolong quality to life or delay Alzheimers. Is it possible you could submit your question in a way that would allow a more reasonable answer to be presented? Do you or a loved one have Alzheimers? Are you asking what to do to prevent Alzheimers? What is the question you would like to discuss? We do like helping and we are here to help you but sometimes we need help to be aware of what you are asking.\n\ndrolson\n_____________________\nAlzheimers is a very complex disease and we hear a lot about the sticky plaques in the brain that 'cause' Alzheimer's but does that really cause Alzheimer's Disease or is this a symptom of the disease? That hasn't been answered. You may want to start taking CBDs with low THC on a daily basis, probably at night would be best for deep restorative sleep and long term improved health. You will not notice a difference for approximately 2 months and then you may start to notice your brain functions better. This is not a promise but I still encourage you to try the CBDs as potential protection for your brain. You may be extremely chemically sensitive so I would also advise you to get all the chemicals out of your diet and do not spray toxic chemicals like herbicides or pesticides in your home. There are many things that you can do to be proactive to prevent this disease even though we are not fully aware of what causes the disease. Free glutamates, a neurologic toxin found in some foods & spices that will form or contain MSG are actually very toxic for the brain and you may want to review the video at unblindmymind.org and review the hidden MSGs at truthinlabeling.org for more information and remember to always stay active, eat healthy organic oils, hydrate well, keep a positive attitude, keep learning and watch as research progresses.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_9219-markdown","title":"I am in Indiana, what's the law when it comes to CBD oils, lotion, ointments, or even drops?
