Healthy Aging and the Future of Cannabis Research
About this 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.Created by: University of Colorado Boulder
