THC Levels could Adversely Affect Consumers of Edible Marijuana Products
USA (PRWEB) January 06, 2015 -- In the bustle of Colorado’s recent approval of recreational marijuana, new edible products- featuring marijuana- are becoming lucrative for businesses and consumers alike, according to The New York Times in an article published Dec. 28th, 2014. Cooking with cannabis is a response to public marijuana use restrictions, which are structured much like open-container laws revolving alcohol. The potential hazards relating to edible marijuana products stem from a variety of factors, including the newness of the privilege, a lack of research into THC as it relates to consumption, and misinformation. Harbor Village Florida has earned The Joint Commission's Gold Seal of approval; the inpatient drug rehab service center specializes in treating substance abusers.
In the midst of controversy, marijuana’s colorado sanction goes against recently disbanded congressional law, yet the industry is thriving and expanding- specifically in the form of edible foods. Line cooks are leaving esteemed culinary positions in an attempt to make their marks on the potentially lucrative new business.
Thus far, Colorado has permitted 160 edible marijuana licenses, and Washington is not far away from embracing the cannabis food craze. Giving the new culinary direction further validation, major New York publishing houses are allegedly curating marijuana cookbook manuscripts.
However, there is a major problem with the widely accepted use of marijuana edibles: unpredictable biological response to THC, the New York Times. reported on Dec. 28th.
