With cannabis products popping up everywhere—from wellness aisles to dispensaries—there’s still a lot of confusion around what’s legal, what’s safe, and what actually works. There’s a lot of confusion surrounding cannabis, hemp, THC, and their role in health — especially as more patients explore alternative treatments for anxiety, chronic pain, and neurological conditions. Dr. Leigh Vinocur - emergency physician, national media medical expert, and one of the first graduates from the University of Maryland’s groundbreaking master’s program in Medical Cannabis Science and Therapeutics - is here to help clear things up. Dr. Leigh’s new book, Never Let Them See You Sweat: How Science Can Help Us Harness Stress for Success (Bloomsbury, June 2025), explores how stress, mental health, and the body’s endocannabinoid system are more connected than we ever knew — and how plant-based medicine, including cannabis, may play a vital role in future treatment protocols.
