About the Course

This Healthy Aging and Future of Cannabis Research course is designed to have you think critically about the health effects of cannabis (i.e., marijuana) in the context of inflammation, exercise, and aging. You'll learn how inflammation and the microbiome may be related to the disorders discussed in class, and how cannabis may influence these disorders through modulating inflammation. We'll describe the relationship between the endocannabinoid system and exercise, and how cannabinoids may affect exercise performance and recovery. You'll learn how to identify key features of aging and how cannabinoids may influence the aging process. Obtaining this knowledge will be helpful in terms of informing public policy, public health, and personal decisions regarding the use of cannabis products....

Dry at times, but an incredible resource. It offers in-depth research where it is available.

I enjoyed the course. Very insightful. Now I am able to provide my parents with knowledge about what could help them with their arthritis. At the same time explain that there is a much better source of pain relieving medication outside of opioids. Thank you Professor Hutchison!

I truly enjoyed this segment as it focused on areas of particular interest to me as I fit into the "aging population."

I do hope there will be future courses as more and more research is done and there is a better understanding of the health effects of cannabis.

Overall, the specialization was AWSOME. I became a little frustrated towards the end because there were several computer glitches. e.g. uploading documents and getting reviewed so I could move forward. I sometimes had a difficult time following the lecture because the professor was speaking so quickly. Overall, an incredible experience ... Thanks!

This course was amazing. I took it comming off the completion of a doctorate in a non-clinical psychoneuroimmunology. This certificate also fit into my specialty within healthcare complementary and integrative health approaches ICIHA))practice in herbalism and aromatherapy. The class went full circle and landed in a way that fits squarely with in the confines of the PNI degree. Great class that fullfilled the professional requirements to become well versed in the use of Medical Cannabis. Each class required that the students develop an infographic on a topic relavant to the topics in that class. I will place the infographics in my portfolio fand use for educating others. Kudos for offering high quality relavant topics.

This course shares evidence of benefits from studies. The research was also eyeopening in the way of bias from risk searching research. Gut microbiome is also broken down and cannabis' role and the affects along with nuerological and diseases related to brain.

Avoid at all costs. Some outdated material, no interaction from the school or instructor. Peer reviewed work and get charged waiting for reviews. Waste of time and money.

everything 'needs more research' and no evidence. what's the point?
