Shocking History & Bright Future of Herbal Medicine w/ Dr. Ben Caplan

GlowUp with Shaman Isis

Embark on a historical odyssey with me, Shaman Isis, as I converse with Dr. Ben Kaplan, a primary care physician turned cannabis expert. Together, we unravel the intricate tapestry of cannabis's role in medicine and society, examining its ancient roots and the persistent stigma that has shaped its journey. Dr. Kaplan brings a wealth of experience from his transition to a cannabis-focused practice, offering a front-row seat to the plant's therapeutic impact on patients' lives. Our dialogue ventures beyond mere medical discourse, shedding light on the political sway of financial interests and the quest for accessibility in the face of prejudice.
As the winds of change blow, we delve into the implications of cannabis's potential reclassification, a seismic shift that could redefine its place in American healthcare. I share my personal narrative of healing, illustrating the profound influence cannabis can have on individual lives. Dr. Kaplan and I navigate the challenging terrain of stigma, lobbying, and the hope for a more inclusive future, underscored by my own therapeutic journey. This episode is not just about the plant itself, but also about the broader impact of policy and perception on the healing arts.
We conclude our expedition by addressing the hurdles within the cannabis industry and confronting the knowledge gaps that affect everything from healthcare to personal use. The conversation pivots to systemic issues in the prison system and empowerment through education, highlighting the importance
