Description
Hayley Palmer and Diana Roopchand review what cannabis compounds do to bones, in a paper published in two thousand twenty-six. Cannabinoid use is rising through medical and consumer products. Their skeletal effects were murky while use outpaced evidence.
Cannabidiol is the best studied member. Laboratory data suggest it restrains bone-eating cells and encourages bone-building ones. Rodent studies report benefits in osteoporosis and gum-disease bone loss, plus reduced fracture pain and better healing. Other plant cannabinoids and mixed extracts vary in effect. The first clinical study found a cannabis product lowered bone turnover markers in healthy adults. The review maps a young literature whose contradictions matter to millions of users.
