Smoking CBD flower? CBD pre-rolls could become the next big thing (especially if you want to quit smoking)

As the CBD market continues to expand, new innovations keep surfacing up.

While smoking cannabis flowers is nothing new and has long been the mode of intake for consumers worldwide, up until this point, smoking CBD flower has been relatively unheard of.

Why, after all, would someone who is used to smoking cannabis shift into a different kind of smoking that would not offer psychoactive effects?

Simple. Not everyone enjoys how they feel after smoking cannabis. CBD, however, is a different chemical of the same flower but doesn’t lead to any of the psychoactive effects THC is famous for. But, this CBD smoke does contain, however, a plethora of benefits that made it so famous in the first place. That's what made CBD pre-rolls the next big thing in the CBD marketplace.

You Can Now Fly Out of LAX with an Ounce of Weed

California just made a big move for marijuana legalization.

Long considered ahead of the curve on cannabis trends, the state was a bit behind on the recreational weed front. 

That all of course changed this year when recreational cannabis sales became legal in California on January 1st.

Recreational sales are in full swing in the Golden State, and earlier this week Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) announced it will now allow passengers to travel through the airport with up to one-ounce of marijuana. 

Yeah — you heard that right: You can fly out of Los Angeles and take your beloved sour diesel or blueberry haze with you.

How Much Does Epidiolex Cost? (The Cost May Shock You)

Written by Jen Keehn

Updated September 13, 2021

Medically Reviewed by Dr. Sandra El-Hajj

In June 2018, the FDA announced the approval of Epidiolex, a CBD-based drug, as a Schedule Class V substance under the Controlled Substance Act. Its adaptation came three months after it has been approved as a treatment of seizures associated with Dravet syndrome and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, two rare and extremely serious forms of epilepsy1

GW Pharmaceuticals CEO, Justin Gover said, “We are pleased that the DEA has placed Epidiolex in the lowest restriction Schedule, because it will help ensure that patients with LGS and Dravet syndrome, two of the most debilitating forms of epilepsy, can access this important new treatment option through their physicians. With this final step in the regulatory process completed, we are working hard to make Epidiolex available within the next six weeks as we know there is excitement for a standardized version of cannabidiol that has undergone the rigor of controlled clinical trials and been approved by the FDA2.

Afraid of Public Speaking? Try CBD Hemp Oil.

I heard somewhere that people are more afraid of public speaking than they are of dying.

This never made sense to me because I always liked public speaking. I am scared of plenty of things but public speaking isn’t one of them. 

Giving a speech, especially on a topic I am passionate about, really charges me up.

I realize I am an exception. Most people do not like public speaking.

And like it or not, you will have to give a speech at some point be it for a college class, a presentation at work, or your best friend’s wedding.
