Obesity - cont. Cannabis is known for inducing hunger, but two cannabinoids, THCV and cannabidiol, were found to have an appetite suppressing effect. In animal tests, the drug also had an impact on the level of fat in the body as well as its response to insulin. Cannabis compounds were shown to raise metabolism in rats, leading to lower levels of fat in the liver and lower cholesterol. Human trials are being conducted to find a drug targeting obesity-related diseases. #HealthIzWealth
