Actually, when I say that- Is she still on the floor in a Colorado hotel? She may have recovered by now.
But like- Yeah, it can become very frustrating. It's just the kind of lack of understanding that exists in this space. And so I think this is one of the reasons why we've really kind of tried to push the public health side of this a lot more. And we have, I mean, there was the Center for Addiction and Mental Health in Canada, which does a lot of the organization of these things.

They did kind of put together what I found to be really useful, which, again, could be leveraged in the States. These are all accessible online. It's called the Lower Risk Cannabis Use Guidelines. They kind of tried to create a framework that is similar to how people have done stuff with alcohol. Um, that just kind of goes through.

And a lot of it is this low and slow approach, but it's like, obviously you want no risk. You abstain. If you're going to use, these are the different ways to engage in harm reduction. Um, you know, like obviously oral consumption has, you know, you avoid the issue of lung damage that you could get from smoking.

Um, but then, you know, with oral consumption, you have to be aware of dosing and timing and all these other considerations. But what about vaping? Um,

Um, but then, you know, with oral consumption, you have to be aware of dosing and timing and all these other considerations. But what about vaping? Um,
I think that will depend on exactly what you're vaping. So in the States, I've noticed when people say vaping, they almost exclusively refer to some kind of oil-based product that's in a pen. Yeah. So in those situations, that's going to really heavily depend on what the concentration of THC in that product is.

Now, the other form of vaping that I think is a little bit more common in Canada maybe is vaping of the plant matter itself. And so this is where they have like a vaporizer device that heats the cannabis to a point that will essentially hit the lift point to vaporize THC in the cannabinoids.

Yeah, yeah, like a volcano. I've seen it. Yeah, but it doesn't create any plant combustion. And so there are studies that have been run on that that have shown that you avoid the combustion byproducts. So people don't like exhale carbon monoxide or these other things that we know can be damaging if they're vaping plant matter. that was actually somewhat approved as like a medical device.
