Common Misconceptions About Cannabis Products
In the evolving landscape of cannabis education, one of the most persistent myths we encounter at Arts District Cannabis is the belief that all cannabis products will get you “high.” This widespread misconception often prevents people from exploring potentially beneficial options that might otherwise improve their wellness routines.
As a leading cannabis dispensary serving East Los Angeles, South Gate, Alhambra, and surrounding communities, we’re committed to providing accurate information about the diverse products available in today’s market.
Understanding the Cannabis Spectrum
Cannabis contains over 100 different cannabinoids, with THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol) being the most well-known. While THC is primarily responsible for the psychoactive effects commonly associated with cannabis, many products contain minimal or no THC at all.
Here’s what consumers should know:
- CBD Products: These contain little to no THC and won’t cause intoxication
- Hemp-Derived Products: Legally must contain less than 0.3% THC
- Topical Applications: Even THC-containing balms and creams rarely cause psychoactive effects
- Microdose Options: Products specifically formulated with minimal THC for subtle effects
Why This Matters
Understanding these distinctions is crucial for consumers who might benefit from cannabis products but are concerned about impairment. Many of our customers in Monterey Park, Montebello, and Huntington Park are seeking options for wellness support without cognitive effects.
