Do cannabis edibles make you lose weight?
Evidence into cannabis as an effective weight-loss agent is mixed and mostly anecdotal. Cannabis edibles include gummies, mints, hard candies and baked goods made with THC, and some are high in calories and sugar. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the psychoactive compound in cannabis plants, and it often has an appetite-stimulating effect (known as the munchies). If you want to lose weight, balanced nutrition and regular exercise are probably a better option.
