I totally appreciate the desire to take less medication; I smoke a lot of cannabis, mostly due to pain (including GI pain!) and anxiety. I watch the research that's coming out now about cannabis, and so far it seems to me that most negative stuff is old and/or clearly not based on science.

So far, they have not found any correlations that I can find between cannabis and early mortality or disease.

Cannabis is a tricky one, because doctors don't know much (a result of the federal ban on researching it, , but I know people who have been using cannabis for 50 years and are doing just fine. So, it's just tricky.

Google "CBG NIH." There is an interesting paper from 2021 that came back from my search results. I'm not sure I buy the assertion that "natural" CBG doesn't work like synthetic CBG - sounds like pharmaceutical positioning to me, so I'm skeptical!
