Amnesia Haze

While Republicans tout their moral philosophy and public outrage at the thought of a “drug being legalized” – they obey but one GOD. That is the GOD of Money! We can see many conservatives jump ship the moment they begin to see the dollar bills run in. Furthermore, the Republican ethos is “Leave it up to the states” and while they may be federally more likely to stand in opposition of legalization, the recent surge in legalization efforts in Red states indicate that there is a dissonance between representation and the represented.

The good news is that switching to hemp (which only has 0.3% THC, the amount legally allowed by federal law) allows weed smokers to get the relaxing “chillout” of CBD without getting wasted and, while it’ll never replace marijuana as a fun escape, it’s still a pretty great buzz, making the use of CBD hemp for a milder high not such a bad idea sometimes.

Due to its meteoric rise in popularity, many brands have hopped on the CBD hype train, releasing products that may not be as beneficial as others. Watch out for products that only contain hemp seed oil but are marketed as CBD oil. They are not created equal. CBD is extracted from the hemp plant’s flowers and leaves through a process called CO2 extraction. Meanwhile, hemp seed oil is extracted by cold pressing the hemp plant’s seeds.
