Separating Fact from Fiction in the Cannabis World
At Lux Leaf Dispensary, where community blooms and cannabis flourishes, we’re committed to educating our customers and dispelling common misconceptions about cannabis. Today, we’re tackling one of the most persistent myths in the cannabis community.
The Myth: All Cannabis Products Will Get You “High”
This is perhaps one of the most widespread misconceptions we hear from first-time visitors to our medical cannabis dispensary locations across Matteson, Richton Park, and surrounding Illinois communities.
The Truth:
Not all cannabis products produce psychoactive effects. Here’s why:
• CBD products derived from cannabis often contain minimal to no THC
• Many medical cannabis products are specifically formulated to minimize psychoactive effects
• Different strains and compounds produce varying effects
• Topical cannabis products rarely enter the bloodstream
Understanding the Difference:
1. THC is the primary compound responsible for psychoactive effects
2. CBD is non-intoxicating and often used for therapeutic purposes
3. Various consumption methods affect how the body processes cannabis
4. Many products are designed specifically for medical use
At Lux Leaf, we serve communities throughout Olympia Fields, Park Forest, Frankfort, and Country Club Hills with a focus on education and understanding. Our trained staff can help you select products that align with your specific needs and comfort level.
