Dear Cheri, Are edibles safe for seniors? I have been trying to get my mother to try medical marijuana. She does not want to smoke but she might be open to trying edibles. I have not had great experiences with edibles in the past and worry she might not either. What are your thoughts? The short answer is, yes, I think edibles are safe and therapeutic for seniors, IF they are in the proper dosage.

"December 8th is a historic date for Missourians," said Dan Viets, co-author of Amendment 3, Missouri NORML Coordinator, and Chair of the Amendment 3 Advisory Board. "Most of the 20,000 annual marijuana arrests in our state will end on that date. Instead, adults will be able to legally possess up to 3 ounces of cannabis, and soon will also have the option to grow up to 18 plants or purchase cannabis products tested for purity and potency from licensed retailers.".

The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s. Today, many opportunities exist for individuals and businesses that want to engage in the industry. Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.

CBD is extremely popular, and for good reason. It’s said to have lots of health benefits and it’s also available in all sorts of different types of products. This versatility is unseen with any other health supplement, so it’s no wonder people have gone mad for it. One type of CBD product that you might not yet have heard of is CBD flowers. These are pretty unique and quite different to the products you may be used to seeing on the shelves.

Hop Latent Viroid (HpLVd) is as enigmatic as it is ubiquitous. Although one study estimates as much as 90% of California cannabis is infected with HpLVd, costing nearly $4 billion in lost yields, the viroid’s pathological mechanism in Cannabis sativa is still unknown. A few studies in closely-related hops ( humulus lupulus) suggest that HpLVd may exert its pathology through RNA interference, which occurs when short viroid sequences interfere with the expression of genes with which they have sequ
