Now, you might think, well, you're out at a bar and you're drinking cannabis.

You're going to drive home high.

Well, we already know people are driving high and we know that people are driving under the influence.

So we need to better educate folks about this to reduce that harm.

But ultimately, this could be a way to reduce.

remove some of the effects of alcohol.

Now you're going to feel similar to what you would feel if you were smoking, but it takes longer for that duration to hit, right?

This is an edible, considered an edible when you're categorizing cannabis products.

And so it does take longer to metabolize.

And that's where some people get in trouble with edibles is they don't feel the effects right away like they do with smoking.

Exactly.

And that's another area where we really want to focus on education with folks of how do you use edibles properly?

In fact, we found that people who are using cannabis beverages are drinking less and engaging in less binge drinking.

Now, this is great because we also compare that to other modalities of cannabis use, such as smoking, thinking, was it just the cannabis or is it actually the beverage?

And we think it's because it's a one-to-one swap out.

You're drinking a beverage where you would have drink a cold one.

Instead, you're drinking a cannabis beverage.

And so we see lower alcohol use.

One of these on average, not drinking multiple like you might if you had a case of beer.

That's something we speculate of.
