B UD of the month featuring Mr. Doobees Q What is a tolerance break, and can it rejuvenate the effects of cannabis? A. A tolerance break is a short-term break from cannabis to clear one’s head and body of cannabinoids, notably THC. While it is possible to become highly tolerant of cannabis and its myriad effects, the buildup can be reversed by taking a break from the drug. Some consumers benefit from reducing their rate of consumption, while others choose to abstain completely for a set duration so that the more noticeable, psychoactive effects of cannabis can return at fuller potency.
