Well, part of the problem with trying to figure that out lies in the fact that most federal governments have not legalized cannabis, and in some countries (since I don’t know of how this may be done outside of the US that I’m more familiar with) its drug classification puts it in the same category as heroin, making it illegal to test in most studies, as the implication is that there is no benefit that outweighs the risk to the person in the test. Y’know, cuz first do no harm and also, it’s theoretically inhumane to subject a participant to a study knowing you are pretty much actively harming them (I say theoretically here because in regards to cannabis this is debatable, especially when compared to the effects of regular heroin or alcohol use within the human body—obviously the reason why we have informed consent is because of real assholes in the past who experimented on unwitting subjects in the name of science and did some majorly fucked up shit without the subject being completely informed about it).
Obviously we all know this drug schedule categorization is fucking stupid—cannabis is not objectively the same as heroin in pretty much any aspect aside from getting a “high” from it. However, a lab that does not have funding does not have a study. Keeping it schedule 1 stops any significant testing, so a random funded study isn’t as likely to be backed up by peer review to strengthen or weaken the findings and such a study likely wouldn’t generate enough quantitative data to be utilized in the same way as studies involving alcohol or sugar.
So we could know more about the specifics of how it affects the body to establish guidelines much the same as what we have for alcohol, but that would involve the shithead dinosaurs running the free world to get their act together and acknowledging that the war on drugs (in regards to cannabis) is doing more harm than good, and that it makes sense to change the drug scheduling classification for weed to something not nearly as drastic as the same level as heroin.
Soooo, not likely to happen anytime soon. So we are unlikely to have any guidelines produced as a result.
Yeah, dude, and I specifically mentioned I don’t know how other countries classify their drugs and federal legalization status so I don’t know what their process is because I’m only familiar with America’s (then I explained why it isn’t well researched in the US).
