Bite Me The Show About Edibles

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/392530/open_sms">Where are you listening from?</a>Your kitchen might be the best dispensary you’ll ever have, but the real magic happens in your brain. We pull back the curtain on the endocannabinoid system and show how edibles—especially THC—bind to CB1 receptors, ripple through dopamine, GABA, and serotonin, and shape everything from euphoria to anxiety to time distortion. If you’ve noticed that your favorite gummy doesn’t hit like it used to, there’s a reason: tolerance builds as your brain downregulates receptors. The good news is that sensitivity can return faster than you think with a short, intentional break. Ready to reset your relationship with cannabis? We’re launching the Fresh Start Tolerance Break Challenge for January—daily check-ins, weekly videos, science-backed tips, and a supportive community to help you rebuild sensitivity, save money, and return with intention. Whether you’re new to edibles or a seasoned home cook crafting your own infusions, this guide gives you the science and structure to make every dose count.

Your Brain on Edibles: The Neurochemical Adventure & Why Tolerance Breaks Are Essential

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/392530/open_sms">Where are you listening from?</a>Curious whether cannabis can actually help your dog or cat—and how to do it without risking a scary night of wobbling and worry? I sit down with veterinarian Dr. Casara Andre to unpack a safe, practical roadmap for pet parents who want evidence-based guidance, not guesswork. From the endocannabinoid system’s (ECS) role in pain, mood, and balance to the real differences between THC and CBD in animals, this conversation translates complex science into clear steps you can use today. We explore why dosing isn’t simply about body weight, how biphasic effects make more a potential problem, and why journaling sleep, appetite, mobility, and reactivity is the secret to finding the minimum effective dose. You’ll learn how to choose products that won’t backfire, what a trustworthy certificate of analysis looks like, how to interpret “full spectrum” vs “broad spectrum,” and why a CBD-dominant plant extract with trace THC is often a sensible starting point. We also dig into the overlooked MVPs: CBDA for GI inflammation and nausea, CBG for muscle relaxation and seizure support, and terpene profiles that nudge outcomes toward calm or clarity.

Easy Pumpkin Spice Creamer, Elevated

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/392530/open_sms">Where are you listening from?</a>Start with a kitchen timer and an open mind. We’re digging into how a long, loving relationship with cannabis changes as life changes—and how a mindful reset can make every milligram count again. With public health researcher and cannabis educator Amanda Reiman, we connect the dots from early Bay Area dispensary lounges born out of the HIV/AIDS movement to today’s crowded shelves, where choice is abundant but guidance is rare.We talk about the real reasons tolerance can drop as we age, especially for women, through the lens of the endocannabinoid system and hormones. Amanda walks through a practical 28‑day tolerance break, what those manageable withdrawal‑like blips mean, and a simple framework for re‑entry: define your goal, start low, go slow, and notice. We unpack mindful consumption as awareness without judgment, choosing non‑smoked methods when they serve you better, and finding your minimum effective dose so you feel more with less. That middle voice matters: between activism that denies risk and prohibition that denies benefit, the future lives in honest, harm‑reduction‑focused habits.We also explore effect‑based edibles that pair cannabinoids, terpenes, and botanicals—think valerian for sleep, green tea and yerba mate for energy, CBN or THCV for targeted outcomes. It’s the entourage effect, leveled up. Along the way, we address why social consumption spaces support safety for naive users, how to shop smarter for CBD (hint: dispensary testing beats gas‑station labels), and why state‑funded research is finally unlocking studies the federal system stalled. Whether you’re recalibrating after years of daily use or starting fresh, this conversation offers practical tools to rebuild joy, reduce risk, and keep your relationship with the plant evolving with you.If this resonated, tap follow, share it with a canna‑curious friend, and continue the conversation at the <a href='https://joinbiteme.com/'>Bite Me Cannabis Club</a>.Join the waitlist at <a href='https://joinbiteme.com/challenge'>JoinBiteMe.com/challenge</a> - Music by Alexander Blu <a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/bitemepodcast">Support the show</a> Visit the <a href='https://bitemepodcast.com/'>website</a> for full show notes, free dosing calculator, recipes and more.
