Many strains out there are below 0.05% CBD, but you can find much higher if you look for it. In my legal state every cannabis dispensary has at least one 1:1 or 2:1 CBD to THC strain, often several. It's not that hard to find. Worst ca

Weirdly, since I started using low doses of THC + CBD flower before bed it has increased my dreaming (or at least recall of it) substantially. For many many years now I would always wake up in the middle of the night out of breath, sweaty a

The oversimplified answer is that there are potential toxins in foraged mushrooms that your liver needs to sort out, which is going to be even more problematic if it is busy dealing with acetaldehyde from the ethanol breakdown. Pure lay spe

As an equally sad counterpoint, if we had 7 billion people out there foraging the countryside would be stripped bare, wild animals driven further from human inhabited areas, and untold habitats would be degraded from all the wandering and p

Regarding the nutritional value of mushrooms, a few counterpoints. Firstly, you are only looking at a single variety of mushroom (cremini). Second, 7% manganese, 17% phosphorus, 15% potassium, and 12% zinc per 3.5oz serving representing 22

Your first two examples are for severely abnormal GI function. The latter of the two, EEN, is also a short-term diet that is intended to induce remission of symptoms, at which point presumably whole foods are reintroduced. Finally, the low

I wasn't aware of this (and neither were local lawmakers), but ironically it is actually illegal in Oregon as of 1971 for any local government body to pass a law targeting the public consumption of alcohol and drugs. This threw a major

microbursts are a thing. It's entirely possible much of your city was dry despite the cloud cover. Also possible they just done goofed.

The hummus with score of 1 has only 28 calories per 100g vs 214 calories per 100g for the "ultra processed." Almost no fat (0.9g) in a food comprised mostly of chickpeas and tahini, both of which are high fat foods. There has to b

CBD on the other hand in "mid range" doses decreases REM sleep latency and (any dose?) also decreases REM sleep suppression related to anxiety. This is something that I imagine needs more study, as there is a huge variability in T

It's pretty well established that using cannabis while the brain is still developing has a negative impact on brain development. Additionally, from what I've observed among a few dozen people I've known over the years, people

I agree completely. It doesn't even require you to believe you have the right answer, or that the experimenter knows this. All it has to be is some niggling feeling that there is some trickery going on here. Something along the lines o

Good call. The author of this book is a marketer and "media strategist," with an obvious focus on social media. He was great at plastering subtle ads all over relevant threads and subs over on reddit. Nice to know that he too has

In some places they may in fact be high school dropouts. Just like naturopaths, it's important to be aware of the laws and certifying bodies in your state / country when seeking health and medical advice. My state at least require

Well said. Additionally, even if we reduce all foods down to calorie counts, some "calories" (foods) are more pro-inflammatory, while other "calories" are anti-inflammatory. I'll let the reader guess which group hig

Furthermore, "a calorie is a calorie" ignores the incredibly complex relationships in our microbiome between bacteria, fungi, and yes even viruses (which apparently can and do absorb nutrients when they are in a host cell), that c

Can we please as a rule avoid reposting reddit reposts of 4chan shitposts? This is not why I come to HN. It would sadden me if this ever became normalized.

I assume viewing a PDF in browser is generally safe everywhere as long as you aren't downloading to HD or cloud? Or is even this activity realistically dangerous without a VPN in some places?

That wasn't the point of my latest comment. Oh well. And let's not be obtuse and ignore the fact that you replied to GP's claim that Lou did not intend to glamourize addiction with "Heroin was his most famous song. What

I'll admit that I haven't read any official biographies or anything, but I have picked up from several authentic (seeming) sources over the years that Lou was just not all that into heroin after some early experimentation. He was

By this interpretation, do we then have to take any subject that rock and roll touches as glamorization? The sound of Heroin is dirty and gritty, the lyrics ugly and honest. The few positive notes in the song "It's my life, and it

Have you listened closely to the lyrics? The song most definitely does not glamorize heroin use. And by all accounts, Lou and the Underground were rather bemused when the media would imply that it did. Also, little known fact, Lou didn&#x27
