While adverse impacts of cannabis use are generally attributed to ¦¤9-tetrahydrocannabinol, emerging naturalistic evidence suggests cannabidiol (CBD) is neuroprotective and may ameliorate brain harms associated with cannabis use, including protection from hippocampal volume loss. This study examined whether prolonged administration of CBD to regular cannabis users within the community could reverse or reduce the characteristic hippocampal harms associated with chronic cannabis use %K CA1 %K cannabidiol %K cannabis %K hippocampal subfields %K hippocampus %K subiculum %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5908414/
