I’m Dr. Caplan — yes, I talk about w**d for a living, and yes, I keep it clinical. At CED Clinic we match patient goals to products, not the other way around. Think of me as less of a fairy goddoc and more of a practical pharmacist with bedside manners. Curious whether cannabis could help sleep, pain, or the endless late-night scrolling?

Cannabis and Parenting: A Nervous System Survival Kit

Let’s stop pretending deep breathing is enough when the toddler paints the dog. Cannabis isn’t an escape—it’s often a recalibration.

• Cannabinoids may lower cortisol spikes during high-stress parenting
• ECS tone influences emotional recovery after chaos
• Cannabis can support presence, not avoidance

What’s helped you stay calm under pressure?
Have you tried cannabis as part of emotional self-regulation?

Cannabis-Infused Veggie Stir Fry 🌱🥦

Dinner doesn’t have to be boring or sugary to be infused. I just shared a recipe that combines fresh veggies, healthy fats, and precise THC dosing so you can elevate your meal and your mood in a healthy way.

Here’s why this recipe is a game changer:
• 15 minutes start to finish
• THC range: 10mg for beginners, 43mg for experienced users
• Anti-inflammatory ingredients like ginger and garlic
• Coconut oil for better cannabinoid absorption
• Savory alternative to gummies and chocolates

What’s your favorite savory food you’d want to infuse?

🌿 Stronger effects without more THC? 🌿

🔗 = https://youtube.com/shorts/6g0tLAwlkME

Most people think a stronger high comes from higher THC, but that’s a myth. ❌
Chasing more THC can actually lead to more side effects—like anxiety, grogginess, and rising tolerance.

The truth? You don’t need more cannabis, you need smarter cannabis math.
In this quick video, I share 3 simple, science-backed ways to make your cannabis more effective:
1️⃣ Terpenes → the plant’s “steering wheel” 🌱
2️⃣ Food first → THC is fat-soluble 🥑
3️⃣ Temperature tactics → your v**e dial = total control 🌡️

🎥 Watch the video to learn how to fine-tune your experience for cleaner, more consistent results.
Because smarter cannabis is better cannabis. 🌱🔥

Cannabis and superbugs might sound like an odd pairing, but new science suggests the overlap matters more than we think. MRSA is one of the world’s deadliest resistant infections, and cannabinoids may have surprising antibacterial tricks.

• MRSA bloodstream infections can kill up to 1 in 3 ICU patients
• MRSA infections add tens of billions in hospital costs each year
• Cannabinoids in the lab puncture MRSA membranes and disrupt biofilms

How should we be rethinking cannabis research in the age of superbugs?
Could cannabinoids one day be part of our infection-control toolkit?
What do you think stands in the way of this kind of progress?

From the moment we’re born, we’re handed invisible scripts:

“Be productive to be valuable.”
“Crying is weakness.”
“Retire at 65.”
“Respect means obedience.”
“Don’t talk politics or feelings.”

We don’t question them—we inherit them.

But what if these aren’t truths… just old software we’ve never upgraded?

“The trouble isn’t that we follow scripts. It’s that we forget we can edit them.”

This new post might be the most important thing I’ve written all year.

It’s not about politics. Not about medicine.
It’s about you. Me. Us.
And the systems quietly running our lives in the background—unnoticed, but powerful.

🎤 Cannabis strain names can be misleading.
“Blue Dream” today might not feel like “Blue Dream” tomorrow.
Some versions hit like a legendary tour…
Others feel like Gary from Accounting on karaoke night.
💡 Real effects come from chemistry, not the name.

What the Heart Doesn’t Know Can’t Hurt It? Maybe Not.

I read the latest cannabis–heart health meta-analysis so you don’t have to. Here’s the punchline:

✚ Over 400 million records… but hardly any confirmed cannabis use
✚ Relative risk for heart attack? Between 1.03 and 1.36
✚ One study even counted anyone with any cannabis code in their file as “exposed”

Should cannabis be treated like a cardiovascular villain?
Can we really talk risk without knowing dose, route, or reason?
Is this more about headlines than health?

Cross-sectional data = “We noticed a thing.”
Headline = “Weed causes death!”
Let’s not confuse correlation with causation… again.
