Just a little testimony regarding my cannabis use...
I started my edible adventure with butter. I cooked with it and boy did I get chunky! I went to coco oil. Coco oil has more saturated fat compared to butter. Saturated fat is what strips the trichomes, and it is a medium chain triglyceride that breaks down easier in our body. I added soy lecithin as an emulsifier which actually doubled as an OTC cholesterol medicine. After 5+ yrs of daily coco oil use (1 Tbsp in my coffee), the doctor said my cholesterol numbers were great. As a matter of fact my precursor symptoms of glaucoma subsided from the use as well The doctors still don't believe me. Fact still remains this is an awesome medicine, and when used properly has great positive physical effects.
”The old "this is your brain on drugs" commercial might be accurate when talking about methamphetamine or other synthetic drugs, but to assume a plant that has been legalized for recreational use in nearly half the country impairs a user's ability to the point of being a liability might be a primitive way of thinking.
I would like to give a personal thank you to all the members who report spam posts on the site. It does a great deal to keeping the community free of garbage; keep up the great work.
There is a wave of legislation that is getting ready to sweep through recreational states. It started in New Jersey with a funeral home employee. An auto accident determined not to be the funeral home driver's fault, resulted in loss of employment due to cannabis in their system. With a medical recommendation, it is seen as "medication" and termination of employment shows DISCRIMINATION against a condition. (Say wha?)
"...follicle and urine tests used to determine someone's present cannabis intoxication is likened to someone finding a wine bottle in my trash can and concluding I am drunk". Did ya get that? The logic supporting this idea is irrefutable and can't be denied.
California is getting ready to push Assmebly Bill 1256, abolishing follicle and urine tests to determine intoxication levels and instead looking to use a blood test to more accurately display an employees intoxication levels. The verbage is still being hammered out, but it should be voted on within the next 2 years, at the latest.

...as the Lactobacillus eat and digest sugars, they create a short-chain fatty acid called Hexanoate as a byproduct. Our cannabis plants synthesise Hexanoate to produce terpenes and cannabinoids...
