Extra Credit! 3.3 Science O' Smoke Cont. Sep 30, 2022

This extra credit episode dives deeper into the science of smoke. We discuss some chemical changes that occur during the smoking process as well as discuss the major differences between smoking, dry herb vaping, and concentrate vaping. All of these cannabis consumption methods have one thing in common and that is heat. Different levels of heat introduced to the products will result in changes to the chemistry that is entering your body! Not everyone prefers the feeling of smoking, and we encourage all users to explore different consumption methods to see what works best for you. As always, thanks for listening! If you want to try our hemp smoke extract products, which have this changed chemistry, find them at ProfoundNaturals.com.

3.3 Science O' Smoke Sep 09, 2022

New episode on our favorite topic! Part of breaking the stigma of cannabis requires breaking the stigma of smoking. While we do not deny the negative side effects linked to smoking, we also believe there are unexplored advantages, specifically for cannabis. Some of us prefer the effects of smoked cannabis which actually makes smoking a more therapeutic option for a specific population. Heat transformation is significant and a major part of the science behind the unique effects of smoking. This changes the overall experience of cannabis in a way that we can't yet fully explain, but in this episode we take a shot at it!

3.1 Receptors Make You Feel Things Aug 12, 2022

Receptors are how your body talks to itself and to the rest of the world. We could not function without receptors and this episode focuses on the CB1 and CB2 receptors, which are the main receptors in the endocannabinoid system that interact with the active molecules in cannabis. This episode will have you thinking about your CB1 receptors in a new light that just might change the way you enjoy your cannabis! We'll also go into other substances and how Cannabis use can be a strategy for harm reduction (begins at the 51min marker).

2.1 Conversations that Change the Stigma (ft. Shango Los) Feb 14, 2022

We've all had difficult conversations about cannabis. Whether it's a friend, family member, or a healthcare provider, it can be demoralizing to feel invalidated and frustrating if you're struggling to find the right words. Many people still have a negative bias about the plant, which isn’t their fault as there’s been a lot of propaganda advocating against it over the years. On this episode of Smoke N' Science, we talk to Shango Los, host of Shaping Fire and expert at cannabis communication. Together, we’re going to share some difficulties we’ve had and some tricks we use to break it all down and hopefully help change people's minds!

1.4 Categorizing Cannabis Nov 13, 2021

In this week’s episode of Smoke N’ Science we’re going to dive into some language used to describe different cannabis varieties. There are hundreds of different Cannabis varieties that exist, and new ones are being created every day. The different types can cause very different effects on our body because they contain different molecules! The most common term to describe these types is ‘strain’ but the Cannabis industry is evolving to include newer more accurate terms, mainly chemovar and cultivar. Let’s discuss the different language we use to describe Cannabis and where we see Cannabis classification going in the future!

Riley and Miyabe peek under the covers of cannabis research and discuss some of the barriers to science that have contributed to the stigma. Miyabe summarizes the system in our bodies that is responsible for the effects and the medicinal benefits of Cannabis, and Riley explains why natural products that contain complex formulations have unique benefits in comparison to the traditional pharmaceutical route of a single isolated molecule. Take an inside view of Riley and Miyabe’s team chemistry and how they hope to change the status quo! Up next: the science behind cannabis and all types of pain, and how the endocannabinoid system is a key regulator by multiple mechanisms.
