The days of shady doctors prescribing medical marijuana cards for stubbed toes or back pain are happily over in San Francisco. You can now walk into a cannabis store that looks like Sickbay on the Star Trek Enterprise simply by being over 21 and providing valid ID. Inside, you might find fanciful treats like Madame Munchies weed-infused macaroons or herbal treatments such as Flour Child's Topical Rub. But one thing is for certain, you will be amazed by the variety and attention to detail that these locations give you. Read more » Everything You Need to Know About Cannabis You can smoke it, vape it, sip it, or spritz it. You can bake it into brownies. You can find it in lotions and potions to rub on your skin, tinctures to drop under your tongue, capsules to swallow, or oils that have been added to your latte or ice cream. Cannabis is everywhere these days, and to hear its proponents talk, it’s the fix for everything that might ail you. But is it? And do you need a degree in medicinal plant studies (yes, that exists) to know your CBD from your THC?

Travelers may apply for a $49.50 medical card before their visit to be able to purchase up to 4 ounces of marijuana at licensed dispensaries. The Hawaii Department of Health began allowing out-of-state residents to apply for the card on March 5 . Applications must be made online.

Phil Murphy (D) and leaders in the legislature have reached a broad agreement. In a press release on Tuesday, the governor, Senate President Steve Sweeney (D), Assembly Speaker Craig Coughlin (D), Sen. Nicholas Scutari (D) and Assemblywoman Annette Quijano (D) announced the agreement and said that text of a bill to legalize cannabis for adult use will be released “in the coming days.” Read more » Police searched a cancer patient’s room for marijuana after someone called 911When police officers wanted to search Nolan Sousley’s medicine bag, he said no. One of the officers said police had received a call that marijuana could be smelled in the hospital room in Bolivar, in western Missouri — where the substance is illegal, though medical marijuana will soon be available in the state. Sousley, who said he has Stage 4 pancreatic cancer, told the officers that he had taken THC oil pills in the parking lot of Citizens Memorial Hospital but that he did not have marijuana and he did not want them going through his things. Read more » Scientists Develop Yeast That Brews THC and CBD Yeast is sort of like the John C. Reilly of the natural world: it’s one of the hardest-working funguses out there (it gives us carbs! And beer!) but it doesn’t get nearly as much credit as it deserves. Now, scientists have given yeast yet another superpower: it can get you high. According to a recent paper in Nature, scientists have developed a genetically modified strain of yeast that produces the cannabinoid compound. This means it can be used to create the ever-popular CBD, which is non-psychoactive and has been cited as a possible treatment for ailments from anxiety to foot pain; as well as THC, which has the mind-altering properties weed is known for.

It seems to be an obvious nod to the increasingly mainstream cannabis culture from lawmakers on Capitol Hill. Sen. Ron Wyden’s (D-OR) proposal, S.420, would deschedule marijuana by removing it from the Controlled Substances Act (CSA), establish a federal excise tax on legal sales and create a system of permits for businesses to engage in cannabis commerce.

The California Bureau of Cannabis Control recently gave the go-ahead for compliant delivery companies to travel anywhere in the state. Read more » Marijuana access is associated with decreased use of alcohol, tobacco and other prescription drugs A significant amount of data has been generated in recent years showing that cannabis access is associated with reduced levels of opioid use and abuse. But emerging data also indicates that many patients similarly substitute marijuana for a variety of other substances, including alcohol, tobacco and benzodiazepines. Last month, a team of researchers from Canada and the United States surveyed over 2,000 federally registered medical cannabis patients with regard to their use of cannabis and other substances. (Medical cannabis access has been legal across Canada for nearly two decades).

The body also wants delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and its isomers to be completely removed from a separate 1971 drug treaty and instead added to Schedule I of the 1961 convention, according to a WHO document that has not yet been formally released but was circulated by cannabis reform advocates.

Lawmakers acknowledged that a year after the state began issuing licenses for growing and selling marijuana for recreational purposes, the legal market has been stunted by red tape, the refusal of cities to allow pot businesses and the burden of paying state and local taxes.

While the Surgeon General did not go so far as to condone legalization for recreational use, he did say that medically, marijuana should be studied, noting, “While I support local solutions to help solve our national public health challenges, they must be led by science driven policy. Currently, NIH funded research on marijuana is pressing forward and we are making progress in studying marijuana and its impact on the human brain, body, and behavior as well as on our communities. We should continue to seek ways to encourage and enable research to best inform policies regarding the potential medicinal properties of marijuana.” Read more » Hemp is now legal in the U.S., so what does that mean for pot companies? Industrial hemp is now legal in the U.S., which advocates hope could eventually loosen laws around the popular marijuana extract CBD. President Donald Trump signed the 2018 farm bill on Thursday afternoon, which legalized hemp — a variety of cannabis that does not produce the psychoactive component of marijuana — paving the way to legitimacy for an agricultural sector that has been operating on the fringe of the law. Industrial hemp has made investors and executives swoon because of the potential multibillion-dollar market for cannabidiol, or CBD, a non-psychoactive compound that has started to turn up in beverages, health products and pet snacks, among other products.
