Their daughter was like 17 and became hooked on the vape pen.

And at the time I thought that that was really weird because they say marijuana is not supposed to be physically, uh, addictive.

I don't know that that's 100% true of some of these 99% pure marijuana vapes.

Uh,

this young woman became hooked on her vape pen, eventually was found unconscious and had to be Narcan'd and brought back from a vape pen.

And I don't know this for sure, the vape pen ended up getting thrown away, so I couldn't get it and have it tested, but I suspect that it could be

something like this, a combination of THC with 7-OH.

So the people who are making gobs and gobs of money off this, they're not like Puritan about, no, it has to be THC or no, it has to be 7-OH or it has to be hemp or it has to be sativa or it has to be indica.

They'll make money off of whatever people are willing to buy.

to get high.

And one of the, I guess, the pioneers of this 7OH industry is a guy named Vince Sanders, who has been written about extensively by, I think, the Kansas City Star.

And he doesn't really make any bones about being an entrepreneur in this space.

He claims that he started

He started a company called CBD American Shaman, which is one of the biggest companies selling CBD products and now 70H products.

He claims he stumbled onto CBD because he was trying to help his uncle survive lung cancer and that he used homemade CBD to cure his uncle's lung cancer.

And eventually that inspired him to start a CBD company.

And now he's making and selling 7OH.

So a lot of the 7OH that is bought under these different brand names is actually manufactured by one central location.

Sanders has bragged in recent stories about being the biggest manufacturer of 7OH in the country.

And he said in a podcast that's still publicly available that within just a few months, his 7OH business was bigger than every single CBD product that he's sold in the history of his company.
