Kudos @abbierosner for this moving piece in CBD Today, “SENIORS, CBD, AND THE LAWS OF ATTRACTION” The article reviews an evolving #CBD playing field, the fears, the market, and a few sprinkled quotes by Dr Laurie Vollen, @JamiePaz, and me!
Medical marijuana is legal in 33 states, and recreational marijuana is legal in 11. But on a federal level, the use and possession of marijuana is illegal for any purpose. The illegal status of cannabis prohibits research opportunities and hinders the safety of cannabis sales.

Benjamin Caplan, MDVideo: Legalization of Cannabis?
Within the inhalation method of consuming cannabis, there are many different ways one can inhale it.
The ancient way was almost always to smoke it. In the modern era of cannabis consumption, there are many more popular and advanced ways to consume either flower or concentrates:
“Desktop” models that may use electricity for amplified power,
Portable models that are more useful for inhalation-on-the-go,
Cartridge-based “vape pens” to vaporize potent concentrates in a simple mechanism.
In short time, we will likely see adoption of (and a quickly massive rise in popularity of) aerosolization and nebulized cannabis consumption too!
Are the benefits of vaping strictly limited to cannabinoids? Certainly not.
Are the benefits of vaping even limited to terpenoids? Certainly not.
What else is there? Flavonoids.
And still more? Combinations of these that create entirely new results!
