Cannabis and Health

[Anonymous]

Did anyone see this Atlantic article about how the newer high-THC strains of cannabis are dangerous, and what might be done to mitigate some of the potential harm?

The Atlantic is very untrustworthy.

Classic fear mongering. More potent means less consumed for the same effect.

This math works on paper, and is not supported by evidence/real-life experience.

The anon on an anon board is very untrustworthy.

The science, however, is sound.

Concentrates and distillates and extracts are the least-regulated of all cannabis consumables, so this tracks. Who even knows what's in their edibles?

Correct. PP's claim that "more potent means less consumed for the same effect" doesn't hold up. Not only are people consuming more, but it's often WAY more than they might've meant to, and the consequences are considerable.

What consequences? Observed how and by whom?
