What would make data from 1980 relevant compared to data from a current state who’s not under prohibition? Do you think normal people were jumping to take part in a government approved cannabis study when it could have them sent to jail for 25 years ??? Cmon man think about the data sets we’re using here.

It seems like you’re all really happy when some loosely slapped together science confirms what you think so I can see why that is the common criticism around here.

    Did you even read the abstract of the paper? 1980 was the beginning of their search range, not the only data used.

    it said we did a meta analysis and it was in conclusive due to lack of data. They hug tight onto a 2016 study that confirmed what they wanted to say. wonderful abstract paper, that patted themselves on the back and drew some conclusions almost out of thin air. I learned soooooo much.

    "There was insufficient data for ADHD, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and tobacco use disorder. Cannabinoids were associated with a greater risk of all-cause adverse events compared with placebo, but no higher odds of serious adverse events or study withdrawal. This Article systematically evaluates the efficacy and safety of cannabinoids for some of the most common indications that they are used to treat, providing clarity during a time of expanding clinical use. Sleep issues, post-traumatic stress disorder, and depression are some of the leading indications that cannabinoids are used to treat, yet there were only four randomised controlled trials for sleep issues, three for post-traumatic stress disorder, and none for depression that examined cannabinoid efficacy."

    DID YOU????? CAN YOU THINK AND BREATH AT THE SAME TIME? Said the same thing I did. Not enough evidence.
