Regular cannabis use quietly raises morning cortisol levels, study finds
A new study suggests that regular cannabis use may quietly raise morning cortisol levels — the body's primary stress hormone — contrary to the common belief that cannabis is relaxing. The effect is subtle and not consciously felt by users, but chronically elevated cortisol is linked to longer-term health consequences. Researchers say the findings indicate cannabis may disrupt the body's stress-response axis with habitual use.
