Medical Cannabis 101, Endocannabinoid System, & THC vs. CBD (Angie Roullier)| The Energy Fix Podcast

Описание: In this episode of The Energy Fix, I’m joined by Angie Roullier—author and medical cannabis advocate—for a clear, no-fluff conversation about cannabis as medicine. We break down the endocannabinoid system (yes, your body is literally built to work with cannabinoids), the real difference between THC vs. CBD, why high THC doesn’t automatically mean “better,” and how terpenes can change the entire experience—sometimes more than the label name on the jar.

Angie shares her personal journey using cannabis after years of relying on pharmaceuticals for a hereditary neuromuscular condition, and she brings a grounded message that matters in 2026: education beats trends. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed in a dispensary, unsure what to ask a budtender, or curious about cannabis for wellness without getting “wrecked,” this episode will help you feel informed, empowered, and way less intimidated.
