Cannabis regulation and compliance are important (though some think it's too much red tape). A study of 90 hash samples on the streets of Madrid found that over 88% of them were not safe to consume — some contained E. coli! #cannabis#research https://t.co/KgE2hTynAa
An important reminder to parents who use cannabis: Keep it away from your kids! This study found that the number of children getting accidental marijuana exposure has increased in the state of Washington since recreational marijuana was legalized.#research https://t.co/Kh2L9ijyeS
Another interesting study on the relationship between alcohol abuse and marijuana use. Heavier and lighter cannabis use was not related to worse alcohol abuse — but moderate cannabis use was! Any ideas why? #research#cannabis#alcohol https://t.co/f7RGnXypZj
Marijuana sales in Canada are slower than expected due to not enough supply to meet demand. Quickly churning out low-quality product may be tempting, but we stand behind our motto: No Steps Skipped, No Processes Rushed, Made With Love, Intended To Heal! https://t.co/FQTPpb0qHf
Myth: Marijuana doesn't affect the adolescent brain. New research shows that 10th grade marijuana users, even those that only used once or twice, had less brain volume than 10th graders who had never used. #myth#mythblazers#cannabis#brainmatter https://t.co/SGpKlRrE6x
Engineering yeast to "spit out" THC and CBD sounds cool, but we still prefer the whole cannabis plant, along with all the cannabinoids & terpenes it naturally produces! "Forget Growing Weed Make Yeast Spit Out CBD and THC Instead" @WIRED#entourageeffect https://t.co/fwVngSGypw
Marijuana is more legal than ever in the U.S., but there is still a thriving black market. How can we help those transitioning out of the black market so that they are not excluded or left behind by big corporations entering the cannabis space? #cannabis https://t.co/IUzMiwxQR8
Federal legalization of cannabis is closer than ever, yet still so far away. "Marijuana Reform, Led By States. Puts Pressure on Congress to Legalize" @weedmaps#rockthevote#cannabis#legalization https://t.co/ntEXZre8ib
At Cream of the Crop, we don't shy away from evidence like this: A new study found that daily use of high potency marijuana increases the likelihood of psychosis. This is why we recommend moderate, responsible use. #cannabis#research#responsibleuse https://t.co/r16dLb6JiH
More research showing the benefit of #medicalmarijuana use for people with Crohn's disease! The researchers attribute this to "the anti-inflammatory effect of cannabis in intestinal inflammation." So maybe cannabis is an anti-inflammatory after all! https://t.co/v6tL7JioVA
Myth: Marijuana is as dangerous as opioids.This article discusses how marijuana is safer than other federally illegal drugs and how prohibition negatively. https://t.co/XOIAyJaENT
We believe #medicalmarijuana has promise as an effective anti-inflammatory medication, but we need to acknowledge research like this: A study of over 13,000 people did not find that recent cannabis use alone was associated with lower inflammation.
If you don't want your kids to start using marijuana too early, a new study shows us what NOT to do: Parents who told their teenagers about their own past negative experiences with cannabis made it more likely that those teens went and used it anyway! #oops
If you think heavy alcohol use and heavy cannabis use go hand-in-hand, think again! This study found that heavy drinkers were likely to use marijuana occasionally, but not frequently. More evidence that likening alcohol to cannabis is not always helpful... https://t.co/L54Mpty44p
Yet another nail in the coffin for the debunked myth that marijuana is a gateway drug...new research finds that #medicalmarijuana users were less likely to use illicit drugs and were less likely to misuse prescription drugs. #research#myth
A survey of the California Pharmacists Association found that most providers believe that marijuana has medical efficacy, but that they don't have information to back up this belief. Yet another reason to conduct high quality #medicalmarijuana#research https://t.co/xBWNUbehDW
An excellent explanation of why cannabis research is so difficult to conduct and why it should be made easier to do so! #medicalmarijuana#cannabis#research https://t.co/5Vv6v4hIfW
Alaska Is First In U.S. To Allow On-site Cannabis Consumption Statewide
By late 2019, Alaska marijuana consumers will be able to buy their cannabis and smoke it, too — all under the same roof. https://t.co/8OnPOZnzKb
