October 16 @ 11:00 am - 12:30 pm PDT

This presentation will provide a background in how cannabis products have evolved in the wake of legalization in many U.S. states, including descriptions of different modes of use, changing THC content, and market trends. The problem of unregulated hemp-derived products, such as Δ8-THC, will be touched on. The presenter will describe how cannabis use impacts physical and mental health, who is at greatest risk of harm, and how policy changes and consumer education could help reduce risks.
