Previous Cannabis Use Myth Dispelled?

Once again the legalization and increased research into cannabis use in humans are dispelling previous beliefs. A 2025 paper outlining a study led by Boston University School of Public Health challenges previous assumptions about cannabis use and male fertility. The research analyzed semen samples from 921 men, focusing on metrics like s***m count, concentration, motility, and volume and showed no statistically significant differences were found between cannabis users and non-users in these measures, even among daily users (3.3% of participants) or regular users (22.6%) .

This finding contrasts with earlier studies that suggested cannabis might lower testosterone or s***m quality. The researchers noted inconsistencies in prior work, such as animal studies indicating THC (the psychoactive compound in cannabis) could affect testicular function, but these effects were not observed in their human cohort . They emphasized that while their results add valuable evidence, they do not conclusively resolve the debate.

The study highlights the need for further large-scale, long-term research across diverse populations to better understand cannabis's reproductive health impacts.

New Yale University Study Shows Cannabis may be more Effective than Opioids

A study by Yale University scientists found that non-psychoactive cannabinoids—CBD, CBG, and CBN—can suppress pain by targeting a protein (Nav1.8 in sensory neurons that transmits pain signals to the brain. Using rodent models, researchers observed that these cannabinoids reduced pain signaling, with CBG proving the most effective.

The study suggests that cannabinoids could offer a safer alternative to opioid-based pain medications, which have contributed to the ongoing opioid crisis due to their addictive nature and overdose risks. Researchers are optimistic that cannabinoid-based therapies could help treat chronic pain conditions such as neuropathy, arthritis, and inflammation without the harmful effects of opioids.

A long-term study investigated the connection between ma*****na use and cognitive changes associated with aging in a group of 5,162 Danish men over 44 years. Researchers measured participants’ IQs at an average age of 22 and again at 62. The findings revealed that men who had used cannabis experienced less cognitive decline over time compared to those who had not.

On average, participants’ IQs dropped by 6.2 points during the study. However, cannabis users showed a smaller decline—1.3 points less than non-users—even after accounting for factors that could influence the results. Additionally, the study found no evidence that starting cannabis use earlier or using it frequently negatively impacted cognitive decline.

The researchers stated, “Men with a history of cannabis use had less cognitive decline from early adulthood to late midlife compared to men without a history of cannabis use.” They emphasized that neither the age at which cannabis use began nor its frequency significantly influenced cognitive changes over time.

The authors concluded that their findings are consistent with most existing studies, which generally show no strong link between ma*****na use and long-term cognitive decline. However, they called for more research to determine whether cannabis has no lasting negative effects on the brain or if any effects are temporary and fade with time.

This research challenges longstanding claims that ma*****na use harms IQ or cognitive function over time. Earlier studies linking cannabis to lower IQ have faced criticism for flawed methods, such as ignoring socioeconomic factors. For instance, a widely cited 2012 study suggesting early cannabis use caused lower IQ in midlife was later discredited for methodological issues.

Paul Armentano, Deputy Director of NORML, commented on the findings: “These results contradict one of the more prominent and longstanding stereotypes about cannabis and cannabis consumers. It is unfortunate that studies refuting these stereotypes rarely receive the attention they deserve.”

Other studies have similarly failed to find strong evidence of long-term cognitive harm from cannabis. For example, a 2024 review in JAMA Psychiatry reported that while cannabis use might cause short-term cognitive impairments, these effects typically disappear after 72 hours of abstinence.

Is there clinical evidence that Cannabinol (CBN) actually helps with sleep?

A study published in “Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology” investigated the effects of cannabinol (CBN) on sleep quality. Conducted by researchers at Canopy Growth Corporation, this Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involved 321 participants who reported poor sleep quality. The study found that a 20 mg dose of CBN reduced nighttime awakenings and overall sleep disturbances compared to a placebo, although it did not significantly improve overall sleep quality or reduce daytime fatigue. Combining CBN with cannabidiol (CBD) did not enhance sleep benefits. The study suggests CBN might help with sleep disturbances but emphasizes the need for further research on optimal dosages, long-term effects, and objective sleep measures.
