In today’s episode no. 5, Danielle and I talk about medicinal cannabis in detail, its absorption elements and individual medicine importance.
We talk about the therapeutic outcomes of cannabis-based medicine as opposed to cannabinoid isolates as well as known interactions and pathways
We talk in detail the endocannabinoid system and receptors.
We also talk the hierarchy of evidence and what the evidence says and the current stance of cannabis in Australia and what the barriers are.
We also touch on light and its importance in health.
Danielle is a naturopath and early career researcher completing her honours in 2019, investigating the absorption of medicinal cannabis in patients with stage 4 brain cancer. Danielle’s clinical interest is in integrative medicine, in particular providing patient centred outcomes in cancer management through an informed evidence base. Danielle’s previous profession as a sustainability practitioner has inspired further research into environmental drivers of health with a focus on the light environment and circadian biology.
