Keto stonner at munchies


(Ceci N'est Pas Une Capybara) #1

Since cannabinoids change things on the body that make people hungry: If people are in keto that hungry will make stonners loose more weight?

Are you talking about the effects of combining cannabis and keto or about the naturally occuring cannabinoids that occur in some low carb foods?

If cannabis is an appetite stimulant and keto an appetite suppressant, I do wonder how they work together and if there’s a conflict.

not entirely sure what you’re asking, but i eat ketogenically, smoke weed daily, and have had success losing weight thus far. from a personal standpoint, i do believe it speeds up metabolism. there are a lot of speculations online through various studies and research that’s been done which would suggest my same thinking. to my knowledge, however, there is no definitive proof to back it up. regarding getting the munchies after smoking, i have found that i don’t get the same cravings now after i smoke versus before i started keto. i would assume this is due to following strict keto which has essentially removed my cravings for sugar and starches in general

I totally keto feasted stoned before my last fast. It is definately an appetite stimulant. I haven’t been brave enough to try while fasting. I only partake once every week or so, not a daily smoker.

for what it’s worth, i occasionally do fasts ranging anywhere from 2 to 4 days, and am constantly smoking weed throughout haha. i haven’t had any issues thus far :hugs:

I’ve been a full time weed smoker for roughly 16 years and it does nothing but repress my appetite these days.
I smoke weed when I don’t WANT to be hungry.
Though I doubt it would do the same for a 15 year old having their first toke, lol.

The question is about autophagy and ask about what happening if a person in keto smoke weed, get munchies and dont eat snacks at all.

That hungry is a result of how cannabinoids link to Hypothalamic pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC) neurons.

This link change how we perceived satiety in a very deep way.

Normally, while on munchie the stonner will eat snacks but if this brave subject resist to the temptation we have the scenary of my question:

I would like to know if this stonner hungry will acellerate the fat burn to make stonner so satisfect as snacks do.

about keto.
cannabinoids are there on our body everytime in small portion as you say.

The combination of fasting and weed make ketonics consume more fat as result of go throw munchies without eat snacks?
