The world and culture based around cannabis is one that is misunderstood and assumed to be true. In the eyes of most people, those who use or are in possession of cannabis in any form are strung out drug addicts or criminals. When looking at the cannabis culture there is so much more that needs to be understood.

Smoking Cannabis

When we think of weed online we first think of smoking it. In the past, and still today, people smoke different versions of cannabis in order to achieve a high. This high is a euphoric state that allows people to reduce the amount of pain they are having physically and mentally.

At present, it is still illegal to smoke any form of cannabis on the federal level. However, on many state levels new laws and provisions are being enacted which are allowing people to smoke and otherwise consume cannabis for medical and personal use.

Age

One of the biggest issues in regards to cannabis is that it is falling into the hands of young people. When cannabis is consumed it triggers a chemical reaction in the brain. This chemical reaction in the brain will at times alter the brain chemistry of people in a negative way. It is feared that if children or young adults under the age of eighteen or even twenty one will have an adverse effect on the cannabis resulting in damage to the brain. This is one of many reasons why legalization is so hard to achieve.

Abuse

Another issue is that people will abuse the cannabis. This can also cause a negative effect on the body. Like anything else, used in excess cannabis can cause damage to the body. Taking in any foreign substance can do this but anti-cannabis supporters believe that any use is wrong.

Gummies and other products

In the hopes to make cannabis more accessible and to encourage the health benefits of this plants, many companies are turning to hemp and CBD oils and extracts to create safe products based off cannabis. Some of the products that are currently available are gummies, creams and pills.

Gummies

When it comes to gummies they come in packages of about five or so. These gummies can be consumed all at once safely but are encouraged to only take one a day. When consumed, the gummies will have an aftertaste that is not pleasant to most people. However, if you can get over that, then the beneficial effects can become apparent.

Pills

Next to the gummies pills are most popular. A thirty day supply is what is most typically sold. However, with some dispensaries and pharmacies you can get a larger dosage.

Creams

The most popular are the creams. These creams will come in a pump bottle with additional pain numbing agents such as lidocaine. These creams should be applied to your pain areas twice to three times a day depending on the level of pain you are in.

Prescriptions

In most cases you will still need to get a prescription for creams and pills. The gummies are typically available without the prescription but each state and location is different. When it comes to using cannabis products make sure to use them as directed. If they are abused it could lead to further laws being enacted which will turn all of the current progress backward.
