Good Morning Dr. Caplan, In response to my question “Calculating Dosages for Smoking/Vaping Flower”, you expressed interest in noticed patterns as well as better context for “elevated.”  I couldn’t find...

Cannabis tinctures can be a powerful tool for migraine relief when chosen and used carefully. The right balance of CBD and THC — and sometimes CBG — along with good timing and symptom tracking, can make a big difference. Here’s how to fine-tune your approach and find lasting relief.

Curious why the same cannabis blend feels different in a joint, a bong, or a vaporizer? Patient-driven tracking—what I call “naturalist science”—reveals just how real these cannabis dosing differences can be. Inhalation method, pacing, and even your own body’s daily rhythms all play a role, making each session a unique interaction between plant and person.

Thank you for your thoughtful question and for being a listener of the podcast—your curiosity and hands-on approach to cannabis use are so inspiring! Exploring nebulization is an exciting frontier in cannabis medicine, but it comes with important safety considerations.

Nebulizers are designed for water-based solutions, not oil-based tinctures, as inhaling oils can pose risks like lipoid pneumonia. While diluting tinctures with Everclear might sound creative, it introduces challenges like ensuring full alcohol evaporation before use. For safe nebulization, water-soluble cannabis formulations, though rare, are the best option.

Think of it like making tea versus frying food—your lungs are the teapot, designed for steam, not oil. Check out my Substack for more details on nebulization, and thank you for pushing cannabis medicine forward with your curiosity!
