16 CBD for Opioid Use Disorder, Spring Growing Tips &   Booming Business for Terpenes

As well, a dabcident can consist of you pulling a muscle by dabbing.When you are smoking dabs and screw up and burn yourself, or get your wax on stuff. "I burnt a hole in my coat sleeve.

There’s a new cannabis-infused “tampon” on the market, and according to customer reviews, it’s “magical.” It’s not exactly a tampon, just a cocoa-butter-based, tampon-shaped suppository, infused with THC and CBD oil.◦The product is called “Relief” made by a company called Foria selling at around $10 a suppository. One woman with endometriosis said it “changed her life,” in a review on Foria’s website. Another called it “better than Midol.” ◦According to the reviews, one suppository can provide 24 hours of relief. Unfortunately not all women can access the little “lifesavers.” So far, only dispensaries in California and Colorado carry them. If you don’t live in those states, you can order the CBD-only version online. ◦Both products are made with sun-grown cannabis cultivated to organic standards and independently-tested as free of pesticides, heavy metals, microbes and other toxins.TIME FOR NEW HEMP TIMES TO REGULATE: THE FDA and the future of cannabisFDA CBD Regulations - NutritionalOutlook.comFormer FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb has said if the FDA is unable to come up with regulations quickly, it would be up to Congress to create a framework. Friday’s hearing isn’t expected to yield immediate results and the FDA is set to create a working group to continue the effort, but speakers will include cannabis industry pioneers, entrepreneurs, politicians, scientists and doctors, many of whom have played a role in legalizing cannabis and hemp.The FDA has warned companies that because it views CBD as a drug, it cannot be added to food or beverages or marketed as a dietary supplement in interstate commerce. But it has also said that given the strong public interest in CBD as a wellness aid, it will seek to help provide pathways to regulatory approval.The Need for Federal Regulation of Marijuana MarketingA national for-profit marijuana industry is expanding substantially in the United States. Thirty-three states have legalized medical marijuana, 10 of which (where 1 in 4 individuals reside) have also legalized recreational marijuana. Sales of marijuana are projected to increase from $8.5 billion to $75 billion by 2030, rivaling current tobacco sales ($125 billion). The initial marijuana marketplace was limited to a few states, but emerging brands have developed sophisticated national marketing campaigns that could potentially have an effect across state lines. This marketplace expansion, along with questionable marketing practices, introduces a need for federal action.For some physicians and public health experts, the marketing strategies used by MedMen may harken back to an era when physicians endorsed their favorite tobacco products and youth wore tobacco-branded clothing in schools. The time for a response is now, for delayed reaction will yield lingering exposure to potentially hazardous marketing claims. A national evidence-based regulatory regime for marijuana marketing must become a public health priority.MIND MUNCHIES (aka Food for thought)SOCIAL MEDIATwitters: @Newhemptimes @jahanmarcu @iamgreerbarnesFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/newhemptimesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/newhemptimes/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/irccmh/Patreon: www.patreon.com/newhemptimesWebsite: www.newhemptimes.com See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

17 FDA Hearing & Expert Call In, Dabcident & CBD Tampons/Suppositories   Special Guest: Zoe Sigmund

This weeks cannabis bonanza features Greer Barnes (actor/comedian), the unapologetic farmer Randy Cameron Jr., Jahan Marcu, Ph.D, and special guest Dan “Grassroots” Goldman from the MJToday podcast.

The combination of THC with CBN produced no detectable changes in the quality, intensity, or duration of the effects of THC alone. The THC-CBD combination tended to delay onset and prolong effects of THC, while making them somewhat more intense. Even this interactive effect was slight, providing no reason to abandon the current practice of basing doses of marihuana for clinical studies solely on THC content. At the very most, the presence of comparatively large amounts of CBD in combination with THC may have increased slightly its clinical effects. CBD has been reported to be a potent inhibitor of hydroxylating enzymes. Such an action could delay formation of the Il-hydroxymetabolite, one which is known to be somewhat more potent than the parent substance. This action might also delay formation of dihydroxymetabolites, which are generally assumed to be inactive. Thus, the clinically observed slower onset and longer duration of the THC-CBD combination might possibly be explained by this mechanism.Link to recent post on the subject:https://merryjane.com/culture/can-you-get-high-from-too-much-cbdCANNABUSTING: Finding or Fiction?When you hear strange things about Marijuana...Who you gonna Call?!

That this did not occur presents a puzzle…” Davenport, S. (2018). Falling rates of marijuana dependence among heavy users. Drug and Alcohol Dependence, 191, 52–55.http://doi.org/10.1016/j.drugalcdep.2018.06.025NEXTThe Surprising Reach of FDA Regulation of Cannabis, Even After Descheduling.O'Connor SM, et al. Am Univ Law Rev. 2019.University of Washington School of Law.University of Missouri School of Law.CitationAm Univ Law Rev. 2019;68(3):823-925.Cannabis producers appear to assume that descheduling would facilitate a robust market in cannabis-based edibles and dietary supplements. In fact, neither of these things is true. If cannabis were descheduled, the FDA's complex and comprehensive regulatory framework governing foods, drugs, and dietary supplements would preclude much of this anticipated commerce. For example, any medical claims about cannabis would require the seller to complete the rigorous new drug approval process, the cost of which will be prohibitive for most current traditional providers.NEXTScience/Human: Cannabis use is associated with a lower probability of obesity in healthy peopleIn a representative group for the US population, who were followed for 3 years cannabis use was associated with a lower increase of BMI (body mass index). Researchers of the Department of Family Medicine of Michigan State University in East Lansing, USA, published their research in the International Journal of Epidemiology. Adults completed computer-assisted personal interviews on cannabis use, body weight and height at Waves 1 (2001-2002) and 2 (2004-2005).At wave 2, 77% of the participants never used cannabis, 18% had discontinued use, 3% were initiates and 2% were persistent users. Estimated BMI change over 3 years shows an increase for all subgroups. Compared with never-users, there was an inverse association of cannabis use with obesity and body mass index.NEXTScience: Degradation of THC over a course of 4 years under different storage conditionsResearchers of the Laboratory of Environmental Hygiene and Forensic Toxicology of the DMPO Department in Venice, Italy, investigated the degradation of THC in herbal and resin materials containing different initial concentrations of THC. Four representative samples were collected from each study material and were maintained for a prolonged time (four years) under different controlled storage conditions: (A) light and room temperature (22°C); (B) darkness and room temperature; (C) darkness and refrigeration (4 °C); (D) darkness and freezing (-20 °C)Almost 100% of THC was degraded after four years under conditions A and B (room temperature, light or dark). Data indicated that the storage temperature and light exposure had two different effects on the conversion of THC to CBN. Models were proposed which allow to predict the storage time, if unknown, and the initial content of THC, from the measurement of THC and CBN content at any time under storage condition A.Zamengo L, Bettin C, Badocco D, Di Marco V, Miolo G, Frison G.
