Yesterday, Diane Rehm was discussing medical marijuana on her show. I have heard of the compounds cannibaniods but didn't know there were a number of them. I knew that THC was a component that would produce the "high" but didn't know there was another cannibanoid that would produce many of the healthful benefits (anti-inflammatory properties, antioxidant properties, etc) but didn't make the user high.
This "other" cannibanoid has been breed down in plant where the users and growing were looking to increase the amount of THC in the drug for recreational uses. There are some grower now however, who are looking to increase the amounts of health producing cannibanoids while decreasing the amount of THC.
What would be the ramifications of this? Take a listen here and you might get a new perspective! (there is a "listen" button just below the "Home" tab)
