Hi Bill, we are experiencing exactly the same in the UK at the moment. Medical cannabis has been approved, but doctors have been warned not to prescribe it. In fact this is something I’d like to write about… perhaps we can chat about what’s happening in Australia.

Hi Diane, I’m not sure that all doctors think in that way. I have spoken to a few GPs in the UK and they just didn’t know the ECS existed and most unfortuately have believed without questioning the false anti-cannabis propaganda. I do think most doctors go into the profession wanting to help people, but I don’t think they are trained to question…[Read more]

Hi Melanie, as you’re based in the UK, if you’re not already you could sign up to Clear Cannabis Law Reform . As a fellow Brit it is extra specially frustrating in the UK. Also just go tell everyone you know about the endocannabinoid system… together we can make a difference. Good luck!

Hi Val, scientists know a lot less about how CBD interacts with the endocannabinoid system compared to THC because it has low binding affinity with both CB1 and CB2 receptors. But Dr Ethan Russo, who has developed the endocannabinoid system deficiency theory suggests that it does improve endocannabinoid tone. One reason is that CBD inhibits FAAH,…[Read more]

Hi Kathryn, yes the two are indelibly linked, but even without the context of cannabis, I think it´s important doctors know about the ECS as it has an impact on all parts of our health.

Hi Jay, I totally agree. I spoke to Michael Dor, the head of the medical cannabis unit in Israel and asked him if the ECS was taught at medical school. I was as surprised as you were when he said it wasn´t.

Thanks Rose. Glad you enjoyed the article. Yes, it’s a curious state of affairs when a patent is taken out by the US federal government on something that has no accepted therapeutic value.

Thanks so much for your comments Jordan. I think all those that know even a little bit about the endocannabinoid system have to go out and spread the word. Of course it needs to be taught at medical school as well and incorporated in doctors continued professional development. All power to the ECS!
