You get the munchies because THC causes a dopamine release in the brain. Smoke crack, that will take away your hunger. Visualize Rosie O'Donnell naked that should make your stomach wretch.

I don't know why!!...but when you have munchies it doesn't matter how high you are, try to eat just the amount that you would normally eat for a snack when not high. You may feel the need to eat more but tell yourself it's just your mind. Eat more fruits, they won't make you gain weight. Also drink enough water (not soda), because smoking makes your mouth very dry, and the water will help with the munchies... ; )

I've actually done scientific research on this. THC binds to CB-1 and CB-2 receptors which there are many in your gastrointestinal tract. It delays absorption of nutrients which makes you feel hunger no matter how much you ate before you self medicated with the THC. The answer is to smoke it before you eat and not after.
Actually Mr. Utopia. The receptors for THC are located on many different types of nerve cells (dopamine, serotonin, GABBA, cholinergics and musculinics). THC affects neuro-modulation and does not work as an actual drug (agonize or antagonize neurotransmitter binding), it fluctuates the rate of many different neurotransmitter release, thus is a systemic drug with many side effects. THC (CB) receptors are secondary targets when it comes to pharmacology because of its side effect profile.

First, your first question you ask. It's the THC in the drug that tricks your mind into thinking you are hungry.
Your next question: STOP DOING IT!!!! Then you don't gain weight, and you don't think you are hungry all the time. Problem solved!!!
Oh by the way, being in the medical profession myself, trust me when I say that weed is as bad for you as the other drugs. IT IS ADDICTIVE!!!! It can cause brain damage and loss of brain cells, and you can OD on it!!!!!!
