California Wakes Up On November 9, 2016

Recently, a new type of product has come on the scene: cannabis sublingual strips. Reminiscent of the paper-thin Listerine breath strips everyone used to use back in high school, cannabis sublingual strips come in small square-sized strips that dissolve under one’s tongue in minutes, delivering a potent but controlled high. Proponents of the strips are calling it the future of cannabis consumption. But are they right? Let’s dive in and learn about all the benefits this new product has to offer.

In contrast to the rest of the cannabis plant, seeds typically contain minimal to no tetrahydrocannabinol, commonly known as THC, the psychoactive compound responsible for inducing a euphoric high.

This proposed bill would withhold 10% of federal transportation funds from places that violate federal law, as defined by the Controlled Substances Act. This Act now classifies recreational marijuana as a Schedule I narcotic. However, it's worth mentioning that the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has requested that the Narcotic Enforcement Administration (DEA) begin the process of reevaluating cannabis's classification.
