On ‘What’s Trending”, hosts Patricia Wu, Jessica Reyes, and guest MHTN Chief Medical Officer Dr. Dan Bober discuss the potential risks of substituting marijuana for other substances, and the importance of seeking evidence-based treatment for substance use disorders.

Dr. Bober explains why substituting one substance for another doesn’t address the root of addiction, and may even expose someone to new risks.
The Dangers of Cannabis
