Common Sense Cannabis: A Practical Guide to Navigating Modern Marijuana

The "indica makes you sleepy, sativa makes you energized" rule you've been told at every dispensary counter isn't science — it's marketing. And it's the reason so many people end up anxious, couch-locked, or convinced cannabis "just doesn't work" for them. The truth is more useful: cannabis isn't a coin flip between two categories. It's a spectrum you can learn to navigate.

In Common Sense Cannabis, Dr. Louis Frosch throws out the broken model and hands you the real one. You'll learn how cannabis actually works on your body and brain, why the same strain can hit two people completely differently, and how to read what's really in your product instead of trusting a label. You'll understand tolerance — why it builds, which direction it moves, and how to use that to your advantage instead of fighting it. Most importantly, you'll learn to dose with intention: the right amount, the right timing, the right awareness to get the effect you actually want.

This isn't a stoner manifesto and it isn't a lecture. Dr. Frosch is a practicing physician who has worked with cannabis patients full-time since 2019 — a Marine veteran turned doctor who treats cannabis as what it really is: a tool. Used with skill, it's one of the most versatile tools you have. Used blindly, it's a gamble. This book is the difference.

Whether you're brand new and nervous about your first gummy, or a longtime user who's never quite understood why it works, Common Sense Cannabis gives you the framework to finally use cannabis on purpose.
