California Sober Trend: Cannabis Cuts Alcohol Use Now
The growing interest in living California sober has captured national attention, as more people seek a lifestyle that reduces alcohol use while incorporating cannabis in a controlled way. As conversations about wellness, harm reduction and substance use evolve, many are asking whether the science actually supports the claims behind being California sober. A new study offers fresh insight—and it's sparking even more discussion among those exploring a California sober approach.
The "California sober" trend, which involves ditching alcohol in favor of cannabis, is gaining momentum, spreading from Hollywood to health influencers to homes across America. Among the motivations for many adopters is to reduce alcohol use, and a new study on the causal effect of cannabis on alcohol consumption suggests that smoking marijuana may lead people to drink less—in the short term.
Published in the American Journal of Psychiatry, the study by researchers at Brown University is the first randomized, placebo-controlled trial to test whether cannabis use directly changes alcohol consumption. Unlike previous research that relied on surveys or self-reported associations, this trial allowed scientists to measure cause and effect under controlled laboratory conditions.
