The researchers observed that fewer rats were willing to gamble for tastier food after consuming cannabinoids. It found that rats under the influence of synthetic cannabinoids were less likely to take the higher risk options and preferred to play it safe. Whilst the study is indeed optimistic, it’s worth remembering that some cannabinoids stimulate appetite. Still, the findings clearly warrant further research. However, it’s important to understand that cannabis is no miracle cure that will make you stop gambling or quit smoking.
