## Resource

Send us a text Medical cannabis is one of the most misunderstood health topics—and Dr. Codi Peterson, a pediatric pharmacist and cannabis researcher, joins Healthy & Awake Podcast to set the record straight. We dive deep into the science behind pediatric cannabis, the endocannabinoid system, CBD benefits, THC risks, and common misconceptions around cannabis vs. pharmaceuticals. Dr. Peterson explains how medical cannabis can be used safely under professional guidance, addresses cannabis side effects like cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, and explores why certain synthetic versions are FDA-approved while the plant remains restricted. Whether you’re skeptical or curious, this episode is packed with clarity, research, and truth.
