Abstract
The circadian rhythm is without a doubt the main element influencing the way human lead their lives. Emerging evidence indicate that cannabinoids affect these routines by regulating neuronal firing within the suprachiasmatic nucleus, the master circadian pacemaker in the brain. These actions of cannabinoids on the brain's clock may also underlie time-wraps commonly experienced by marijuana users.
