If drinking cranberry juice excretes THC from your body, wouldn't it make sense for a stoner to drink it regularly to reduce stored THC levels and make highs last longer??

I recently bought a jug of cranberry juice so will do a personal test but do you guys have any experience/idea if this makes sense? I tried searching but didn't find anything...everything is about getting ready for a test.

I really doubt it works. CJ is healthy and good for the urinary tract, but it won't flush THC out any more than water would

Look into the chemistry. THC is fat soluble, very low water solubility. It is absorbed into your fat and released slowly; water based solvents won't remove it, they will just dilute the compounds in the urine.
Thus it depends on the sensitivity of the test.

I have heard of this myth, too. Although it is good for you, it will not dissipate the THC stored in your bodys fat cells.

Cranberry juice is high in sugar... sugar leads to potential fat. Just sayin...
it won't do much if anything at all, but it is a diuretic so that's not bad... I guess?

Right. If you didn't drink it or water, you would'nt pee as much or as frequently; so you'd have more "stuff" in the urine(yellow vs clear) at the time of testing. I'd say the reading would be a tad higher and that gets to how the test is calibrated and sensitivity

Ok then why is it always recommended for people trying to get clean for a test?
Because people like to spread false info based on myths.
C.J. is helpful for bladder and urinary tract infections plus it dilutes, so I would think thats how the myth came to be started.
The big difference in piss tests are how you are tested. If you are made to pee in a cup, with the test built into the cup, (a simple cheap test) then dilute pee may be able to fool the sensors on the side of the cup. However, if you are going to be sent to a laboratory, (like at a hospital) then you are pretty much screwed unless you are clean. Those laboratories can tell if you added anything to the pee, or if it is too dilute. You will be made to take the test again. Good Luck.

I thought cranberry juice was just a good thing to drink, like any other fruit juice. Who comes up with these ridiculous myths?
