In all of its formats — flower, concentrates, edibles, lotions — there are cannabis products available with low dosages of the psychoactive ingredient THC and higher concentrations of ingredients that provide relief and therapeutic benefits without getting you stoned.
The ongoing normalization of cannabis helps more people get comfortable with its medicinal value.
