Seems useful.Weed has become so strong and intense that many people don’t enjoy the effects anymore. CBD flower by Best Wholesale CBD Flower | 20+ Strains | Berkshire CBD is a great alternative.

Well now I'm embarrassed, having replied to a bot. Hopefully it found its way over to the other Ray Peat message board where it belongs. Anyway, you said you find cannabis pro-metabolic. How often do you use it?Why isn't this guy banned already? He's obviously a bot.
I don't think it promotes muscle loss it's just heavy stoners are less likely to use their muscles and they don't really eat that much.The stoners I knew in the past were all of very slight build too. Perhaps heavy use can promote muscle loss? Not sure how this would tie in to its effect on the metabolism though.
You're most likely correct. I can't see heavy stoners working up the motivation to lift weights, or do much of anything for that matter. I am convinced that there are no real negative effects, hormonal or otherwise, with moderate use. Heavy use or being stoned all day every day is another matter entirely.I don't think it promotes muscle loss it's just heavy stoners are less likely to use their muscles and they don't really eat that much.
Dang, I'm sorry to hear that. I experienced derealization a few times but it was from clenbuterol. Only lasted a few minutes but it was disturbing. I can't imagine living with that sensation.i smoked once when i was 17 and i got severe derealization that i havent recovered from 6 years later. life is unlivable and everything feels like a dream. just putting this out there incase anybody is considering trying it. please do not it is not worth the risk. there are thousands of people just like me that got it from trying it once. dont do it. check out the many forums dedicated to dpdr.
Thought I'd update this thread after having labs done while using cannabis multiple times a week. My testosterone came back at 823ng/dl. The reference range has the upper boundary at 850ng/dl which seems lower than the reference ranges I've seen in the past. Total estrogen levels were 107pg, well within the normal range of 60pg to 190pg. I could lower my estrogen further but every time I've tried exemestane I felt lifeless.
The last time I had labs drawn was at the age of 24. Back then my testosterone was at ~700 at 190lbs (86kg) height 6ft 1in (185cm). I was 145lbs at the most recent blood drawing and coming off a couple of months of severe carb/calorie restriction which I thought would have surely tanked my test levels.
The only thing that was messed up was my shbg, double the top end of the range, which was likely due to the carb and calorie restriction.
I'm willing to conclude that cannabis has little impact on hormonal levels with prolonged usage. Of course, what I've written is anecdotal, but it's in line with a recent European study that I read that showed frequent cannabis users had significantly higher test levels than nonusers. I'm making decent progress rebuilding my lost muscle tissue too. It surely isn't hurting my workout recovery as I sleep incredibly well with it and wake up energized, ready to take on the day.
A couple of things here. First off, this is a great argument for legalization. Not sure whether your's was legally obtained or not but in the illicit trade people alter it with all kinds of things to make "customers" feel like they are getting some kind of special high.i smoked once when i was 17 and i got severe derealization that i havent recovered from 6 years later. life is unlivable and everything feels like a dream. just putting this out there incase anybody is considering trying it. please do not it is not worth the risk. there are thousands of people just like me that got it from trying it once. dont do it. check out the many forums dedicated to dpdr.

Next, purely by chance and circumstance, I was 23 when I tried it the first time. I am glad, because since then much research has established that the still developing brain is affected and changed by cannabis. Nobody has proven that this change is bad--or that it is not. So I think the most prudent course of action is to not use cannabis until 21 or older.
I agree with @Randle Cyclist that you should create a thread asking for others thoughts and feedback.
I read it a few months ago but unfortunately I did not bookmark it as I wasn't really planning on updating this thread until I had hard data. I believe this is the one:Where did you find the study you mentioned, I'd like to read it if possible?
Yoo have you thought about this or changed your mind at all?

You can counter the pounding/racing heart with a few milligrams of lidocaine. (It's a "peaty" substance and accompanies cannabis very well.)
i smoke cannabis a LOT and heres what i think about doing it in a prometabolic fashion.This is a really good suggestion -- I can confirm it works for this exact stated purpose. I've been sipping on an 8 ounce bottle of 200 mg total lidocaine over the course of the day the past couple days. Just a sip (~20 mg) works for weed/smoking-induced anxiety (it works for nicotine vaping as well). I've also noticed it numbs the throat slightly and prevents irritation from the hot smoke.
