Separating Fact from Fiction in the Cannabis World
As Michigan’s premier cannabis dispensary, New Standard frequently encounters customers who have been misled by long-standing marijuana myths. Today, we’re tackling one of the most persistent misconceptions in the cannabis community.
The Myth: All Cannabis Products Will Get You “High”
One of the most common misconceptions we hear from first-time visitors is that all cannabis products will produce psychoactive effects. This simply isn’t true, and here’s why:
- CBD products derived from hemp contain minimal to no THC
- Many topical products don’t enter the bloodstream
- Various cannabis compounds offer therapeutic benefits without intoxication
The Reality
Cannabis contains over 100 different cannabinoids, and THC is just one of them. Many products, particularly those focused on wellness and therapeutic applications, are specifically formulated to provide benefits without any intoxicating effects. For example:
- CBD-dominant products
- Topical creams and lotions
- Specific terpene blends
- Micro-dose options
Understanding these distinctions is crucial for both recreational and medical consumers. At New Standard, our trained staff takes pride in educating customers about the diverse range of products available and their varying effects, ensuring everyone can make informed decisions about their cannabis consumption.
