Is the secret to a good night’s sleep…smoking lavender? While some people claim it’s safe and healthy, don’t believe the hype. There is no evidence that proves smoking lavender has any potential benefits. Stick to aromatherapy and teas instead, your lungs will thank you later.

Are the chemical compounds found in cannabis, including CBD, a potential treatment for reducing anxiety? Here’s what one clinical study is finding—and the story of one of its patients.
In “The Cannabis Question,” NOVA investigates the story of cannabis from the criminalization that has disproportionately harmed communities of color to the latest medical understanding of the plant. What risks does cannabis pose to the developing brain? How much do we know about its potential medical benefits? As cannabis becomes socially accepted, scientists are exploring its long-term health consequences.

Cannabis is rapidly becoming one of the most consumed drugs in Canada. Many report using the drug as a coping mechanism for stress and anxiety. How exactly do our stress responses change in the presence of cannabis? Does cannabis actually relieve stress? This video considers the stress relieving effects of cannabis as it interacts with our body’s stress reaction system: the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal axis (HPA-axis). Followed by the potential of cannabis for treating chronic and acute stress related disorders. As research continues on the full uses of cannabis, this video serves as an overview of the research published thus far. If you are using cannabis to cope with stress, please do so safely by monitoring your usage, and reaching out to a registered healthcare professional for more guidance on coping with stress.
