Delighted to share our new Nature paper: rdcu.be/dNlMQ This works shows a surprising off-target effect of glutamate on another cell death channel, acid sensing ion channels (ASICs). It turns out that glutamate directly binds to ASICs as a positive allosteric modulator

So for those of you interested in what it was that I took issue with in Hubermans first cannabis podcast, this is the Coles notes of the errors/inaccuracies that I noted. A lot of this is covered in the new episode, but some wont make it through and for others this is the TLDR
New Huberman Lab podcast out now: CANNABIS: EFFECTS ON HEALTH & RISKS w/guest @canna_brain •THC, CBD Biology •Cannabis & Psychosis •Is THC addictive? •Are Strain Differences Real or Placebo? •Appetite, Hormones •Dosage Control: Inhaled vs Edible hubermanlab.com/episode/dr-m…
