171. Heather Grzych on Cannabis, Weed, Fertility and Longevity

from Wisdom of the Body · host Heather Grzych

Wellness expert and Ayurvedic practitioner Heather Grzych explores the complex relationship between cannabis, fertility, and longevity. Drawing from both modern science and ancient Ayurvedic wisdom, Heather discusses how THC can disrupt reproductive hormones, alter sperm and conception, and potentially impact the health of future generations. She explains how cannabis affects vital essence (ojas), nervous system balance, and long-term tissue health – especially as we age. Listeners will contemplate whether cannabis supports or undermines their unique physiology, life stage, and long-term vitality. A must-listen for anyone navigating reproductive system challenges or considering the role of cannabis in aging.
