Weekend reading: cannabis edibles

Legal issues about CBD and THC edibles continue to be in flux, and not only in the United States.

One big issue is their safety, since nobody is checking to see what is really in the products.

In the meantime, lots of new cannabis-fortified foods are on the market.

And there is a whole new category of drinks: hemp spirits; these are non-alcoholic.

Comment

This is information, not recommendation.  Be careful about these products.

    • Their doses are unregulated; start small and wait two hours before taking more.
    • Keep them securely away from children.
    • Don’t let pets consume them.
