Did you indulge a little too much yesterday? Most people are probably waking up today with a bit of a weed hangover and it’s totally normal. If you’ve ever wondered what happens to our bodies when we get a weed hangover, and how we can cure them, read below!
What causes a weed hangover?
Studies have found that much like an alcohol hangover, a weed hangover is due to overconsumption. However, because cannabis affects each person’s body differently, it is impossible to say exactly how much cannabis is too much. That’s why the saying ‘start low and go slow’ should always apply when consuming marijuana.
Does cannabis cause dehydration?
Some people make the claim that weed is more dehydrating than alcohol. This is simply not true, and you might be surprised to learn that weed does not cause ‘cotton mouth’. Dry mouth or cotton mouth is not caused by dehydration, but rather by a lack of saliva. As always, it is important to drink water while smoking cannabis, and good hydration is a known antidote to hangovers.
