New Study Alert: Dutch and Chinese scientists uncovered concerns about how delta-8 THC is produced. Using a variety of the same methods used by delta-8 manufacturers, they transformed hemp-derived CBD into delta-8 THC. They found that the resulting delta-8 THC solutions contained illegal levels of delta-9 THC (over the 0.3% limit for hemp and as high as 49%) as well as unfamiliar and potentially unsafe cannabinoids like isoTHC. They also tested commercially available delta-8 gummies, finding further evidence of illegal delta-9 levels and undisclosed cannabinoids. This study emphasizes the pressing need for regulation of delta-8 THC production to ensure accuracy, legality, and safety. #hempindustry #cannabisnews #delta8 #cannabisscience #cannabisresearch https://lnkd.in/g-58NHxX

Recent weeks have seen new developments in the legal status of hemp-derived delta-8 THC across several states. For starters, there were two big wins for proponents of delta-8 in Texas and Arkansas. A Texas appeals court upheld the injunction against the state’s delta-8 THC ban on October 2, 2023. Meanwhile, a judge in Arkansas blocked that state’s ban on delta-8 THC and similar intoxicating hemp products on September 8, 2023 On the other hand, Alaska passed new legislation to regulate intoxicating hemp products under the state’s recreational marijuana system. That means delta-8 THC and similar products can only be sold by licensed cannabis retailers to adults 21 and over. With these changes, delta-8 THC is now illegal in 16 states, regulated like recreational marijuana in four others, has an unclear legal status in four more, and is fully legal in 26 states. #delta8thc #hempindustry #cannabisnews #delta8 https://lnkd.in/gh4Vf87r

A new study provides further evidence for the benefits of CBD supplementation, particularly for improving sleep quality and immune cell function. The study was conducted in 28 healthy, college-aged adults and administered 50 mg CBD capsules daily for eight weeks. The results were promising: participants reported significant improvements in sleep quality, backed by measures like the LSEQ (Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire). But that's not all. The study also found that CBD enhanced the cytotoxic function of Natural Killer (NK) immune cells, particularly against leukemia cells. This suggests that CBD may not only help you sleep better but also boost the immune system. #CBD #hemp #cannabis #cannabisscience #cannabisresearch Check out the full study here:
