Hello and welcome back to exploring cannabis and exercise! The podcast where the anecdotes meet the data. This week I am so excited to share my conversation with Dr. Laura Stewart - professor in the department of Kinesiology, Nutrition, & Dietetics at University of Northern Colorado. I met Laura at the ACSM Rocky Mountain meeting in Spring of 2021 where we gave two out of the three talks that day about cannabis and exercise and saw her again at the Cannabis Research Conference last summer in Denver. 

If you go back to Episode 4 with Jonny Lisano, you’ll hear a little more about other cannabis and exercise research she’s been up to because Jonny was one of her graduate students! Her lab has since done more research on CBD and exercise, for example this study published in 2023 and this article from 2024.  One of the big things we talk about in this episode is the difference between research doses of CBD vs. commercially available doses of CBD. As you’ll hear in this episode, Dr. Stewart is smart, accomplished, cool and just as excited about sharing cannabis and exercise research with the public as I am. 

As always, hope you enjoy this episode and make good choices out there.

**Friendly reminder/disclaimer** I am not suggesting everyone use cannabis with exercise. Cannabis is definitely not for everyone. But if you're curious about your own use, understanding more about why people use cannabis with exercise, or want to learn about the latest research in the field, you're in the right place. Make good choices out there.
