Smoke Smartly is a free, independent guide to cannabis: what it does, what it doesn't, how to use it more safely, and how to stop if you decide to. Every claim is graded by how strong the evidence really is and linked to where it came from, so you're never asked to just take our word for it.
Not all evidence is equal, and pretending otherwise is how myths spread. Every claim carries a strength badge: open it to see the study, the sample size and the caveats.
Backed by large, well-run studies or clinical trials that mostly agree.
Real evidence pointing both ways, or findings that don't settle it yet.
Limited, low-quality or mostly anecdotal. Worth knowing, but hold it loosely.
It is a plain-English reference for adults: what cannabis is and does, how to lower the risks if you use, and a practical toolkit if you want to cut down or stop. On law and rights it's UK-first, with a wider view where that helps.
It isn't medical or legal advice, and it won't replace a doctor, pharmacist or solicitor. For a real decision about your health or a legal problem, talk to a professional. It isn't here to talk you into using, or out of it. And it sells nothing: no shop, no products, no affiliate links buried in the text.
If something reads as out of date or badly sourced, treat it as a bug. Grading every claim only counts for something if you can check our work, so check it.
Cutting down, taking a break, or stopping for good? A free account remembers where you are: a live timer counting every day, the money you're saving, milestones tied to what's happening in your body, and a private history of how it's gone.
It asks for no name, no email, and never your IP, just a handle and a passphrase you pick. Export everything or delete it for good in one tap, whenever you like.
An illustration of the signed-in dashboard. Your own figures once you start.
New here? Cannabis, Explained is the place to start. If a word trips you up, the glossary keeps the jargon in plain English.
