    Also another question. I have a hypothesis that micro dosing psilocybin could help focus Adhd. As psilocybin disables the default mode network more than any other substance. And Adhders have an issue with a persistent and active DMN. so I think microdosing will reduce DFM activity and free up energy and blood flow for the PFC. Thoughts.

  • @DanjunaDJ
    @DanjunaDJ Місяць тому

    Great episode. Love it. Just a thought with regards to Australia being so high on Adhd diagnosis and alcohol and depression etc. Rather than seeing alcohol and substances as a cause... I would suggest that as we are one of the newest settled and civilised countries that was settled by convicts... I would argue that - people with Adhd struggle to control impulses. - this impulsivity leads to behaviour that may be condoned as criminal and they are deported to Australia - Australia then becomes founded on a higher rate of Adhd convicts passing on genetic information to offspring. - Australia then has a larger percentage of Adhd genetics. - as a result, a lot more Australians turn to alcohol and other substances as an attempt to solve a genetic problem of low dopamine and blood flow. Thoughts on that?

    great show guys fully support David and the crew I have a question for you in regards to how the money made would go to Canberra as we know that money would end up somewhere else like buying military hardware and other goods that nobody really wants or needs , lets say if the Vic Gov was to allow the public to purchase a cannabis use permit from say the post office or another businees linked to the state Gov for people who are over 18 years old that would allow Vic state residents to grow 6 plants or to buy from the local chemist etc for either rec or med use rather than everybody trying sign up for med scripts would like to know your thoughts on this as it seems a way for the state gov to benifit from cannabis sales and be able to put this money to good local use, permits = $100 per year x at least 1,5 million users thats a lot of cash for the gov

    I got recommended looking into Mr. Nice strains as an better alternative to Sensi Seeds, Nirvana & co., according to those breeder syndicate guys like Matt Riot and Notsodog the Black Widow, SSH, etc. from Mr Nice are more leaning to the old originals than Sensi and the others. I wonder how the Early Skunk is like, I only know the feminized Sensi version with that "grandma" mothball smell. 33:40 Now I feel really stupid having wondered for years how it's possible for stuff like Afghan or Nepal hash to smell so complex and perfume-like, never thought about the influence of having a whole field with different leaning phenotypes in that small piece of hash.

    For those that want to know, if your looking to invest in RUA i wouldnt expect returns of note anytime soon due to market saturation and the companies size, RUA has a point of diference form other NZ players that is smart and could potentially see them well positioned to capitalise on a supplying a "NZ pure" export offering. Im suprised though that no one hasnt offered an Australian/ocarina ETF fund to generate funding growth.

      I'm not wrong and it's a crying shame because it's not difficult to grow quality cannabis flowers especially when you're allowed to do it legally with that technology at your disposal. But no even with all that at their disposal New Zealand growers who are legally allowed to grow cannabis for profit don't even know how to flush the flower during the last stages, don't even know how to make sure the plants are getting all they need to reach maximum genetic potential, don't even know how to cure the dry flower properly. Pathetic effort. Thousands of New Zealanders agree with me so stop blowing your own trumpets and get your s*** together New Zealand cannabis industry, and stop screwing local patients.

  • @BeugyNBeast

    Can you guys pls cover Cannabis Hyperemisis Syndrome on an episode and the effects on the CB1 and CB2 receptors and the body in general. I have been a regular cannabis user since the late 90s and I have been dealing with CHS on and off since 2015/16. I know the first person to be diagnosed with CHS was an Aussie in 2010. I myself was the first person i know of in the Aust cannabis community with CHS and i was sharing my journey on social media then and i still do. Since i have talked to a few others whom also have CHS. I was also the first person in my home town to present to and give my own CHS diagnosis at the hospital. Drs then had no idea and many still dont. I do admit I was in denial for a long time that my cannabis use was causing me to get sick until i had no choice but to admit it to myself. I had every test i could to rule out any other minor or major health issue. I even had my gall baldder removed before drs finally agreed it was CHS. I have been a regular cannabis user since the late 90s though only started to get CHS symtoms those last several years like mentioned. And it doesn't matter if i am prescribed legal medicinal or use my own organic no till living soil/knf/jadam cannabis i still get CHS and my home grow is medicinally better than any product in the market let me tell you that and i challange any legal grower to a grow off to prove me otherwise. Its just a shame i cannot legally get my home grown tested in a lab like you legal growers can. I went from using cannabis several times a day to treat chronic pain and insomnia mainly to currently quitting cold turkey because i recently had another very day 7 day flare up and i presented myself to the hospital again. The longest it has lasted was 3.5 weeks and i lost 18kgs. The extreme nausea and stomach cramping is like anything else i have ever experienced and others that get sick with CHS will agree. You cant stay hydrated nor can you eat. Which leads to not being able to pass urine or stool and weight loss which can lead to organ failure and death. Drs have told me if this keeps happening that i may need kidney dialysis. Yes hot baths help somewhat initially with settling the stomach but over time nothing helps, not even the HALOPERIDOL shot. I have found my own remedies and ways to deal with it now to some extent, walking/exercise helps. Keeping the mind and body distracted, hot water bottle to the left side of the stomach with some pressure applied, black and green tea helps the cramping and nausea too . Loud music with HEAVY bass, the harmonic vibrations help alot. Also i found once i start getting a little better and i can eat that i must stay away from oily fatty foods initially or it will come back within a few days. I only use cannabis flower for medicine to treat chronic oesteoatherotis pain, L4/5, S1 sciatica and insomnia but now i have to manage pain the best i can without any medication as i took myself of all big pharma medicines too ie opioids, benzodiazepines ect though i have had to use stilnox again to sleep becaue CHS for some reason also gives you chronic insomnia. I think its a way the body protects you from not vomiting in your sleep and chocking. I am currently 16 days cannabis free. I found taking long regular tolerance breaks help the body recover to the point i can use a little cannabis if needed but not always. Though if i smoke/vape like regular within 6, 8, 12, 14, 18 months it can come back without warning and worse than the previous time. I have heard that people with CHS cannot use THC products but can safely use CBD. Its a very complicated illness that needs to be studied more. The research on CHS seems to be very limited as is the acknowledgment and understanding by health professionals in Australia and also i have never heard a single cannabis prescribing dr talk about it either. I have been treated very poorly presenting myself to the drs and or hospital at times. At one point i was asked if i was an ice addict or heavy drug user because of the extreme weight loss and how this effects ones body and mind while being sick. Very humiliating when they assume these things. Alao the HALOPERIDOL shot needs to be authorised to be given by nurse's without a drs order becaue sometimes i have waited 2-4 hrs for the injection. I dont smoke cigarettes, nor do drugs and I dont drink alcohol. I have changed my dietary requirements also. If anyone is reading this and you do feel like you have CHS please do not be deterred from seeking help at the hospital as this can and will lead to your body to extreme dehydration and stress. I am not sure if anyone has died from CHS complications in Australia but let me assure you if i dont stop smoking now no ifs or buts i will be that first person. It scares me so much that i no longer use cannabis at all. And if you know me personally you know thats a huge change for me. And to anyone that thicks CHS isnt real im here to tell you it that it certainty is. The CB1/CB2 receptors become over stimulated by cannabinoids and your body has no choice but to remove them at a very rapid rate causing the sickness. Feel free to reach out to me for any further questions as i think i have enough experience myself to give insight further. Cheers. 🤙

I used to believe that it was most likely caused from non organic ways, but you also get it from your own plants. I must ask if you have tried having cups of canna tea 🍵 ? Instead of smoking it. I'm glad you have found this out now rather than later, when as you say could be to late. I hope this gets better for you. What do you think that it is caused from, as it's happening to you ? Do you think it's from long term use ? Or using an excessive amount ? If so what do you call an excessive amount ? Sorry for all these questions but I'm interested to find out first hand and I hope that many people also read this. Thanks Beugy.

      @@aaronhopkins6697 i personally think it has to do with a certain gene in peoples dna, why some experience this illness and others dont. It is also definitely caused by long term/heavy use...3 grams plus a day.

      @@BeugyNBeast thanks again for this Beugy, this is great that you and I are talking about this important cannabis issue for hopefully all to learn from. Now we (you and I) have just made a very important breakthrough in cannabis research for everyone world wide. With our personal experiences and knowledge on cannabis we can rule out the long term use, I believe and put it down to being more of a DNA or personal anomalies. As I haven't felt any symptoms relating to CHS. The times that I might have had a little bit of an upchuck from smoking was when I have dead aired myself, or inhaled a fly in the bong. Anyway I really hope we have helped someone that might use this for the good of cannabis world wide.

    I have smoked many of shantis strains over the years,, I fondly remember my first trip to Amsterdam for Scotland as an 18 year old after finally reaching the green house cafe about 10 at night and the white rhino was the first thing I bought as we sat in the green house cafe enjoying our smoke we couldn't quite believe how things where in Amsterdam but we loved it I'm 46 now so 28 years ago,, and its great to see the guy responsible for the strains as everyone knows arien is jst what berner is to cookies but years before,, respect 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    It's not beating down your CB1, and CB2 receptors, rather it is keeping them all fully connected. That is what homeostasis is...

      For some people it does indeed. I personally think it has something to do with certain genes in individuals peoples dna.

    Zaina, i was in a 100 kph head on car crash. And I'm smashed down my right side. So yes i need cannabis everyday. Im fing pissed off at the whole medical cannabis system because there is people on legal medical cannabis that are using many grams a day that they are treating the soreness they get from doing a heavy workout at the gym. Then they are going to a physically manual labour job. I cant even walk normally without having pain every second step i take, and i can't even lift my righ arm above my head. This is all an absolute sham, as the way cannabis actually works is for the body to be saturated with cannabinoids on regular intervals throughout the day. My dose is upto two grams per day.
