Episode Synopsis "Distinguishing Marijuana Versus Hemp: History, Science and Controversies"

One of the biggest issues facing the US hemp crop in 2019 was the higher levels of THC, making it marijuana in the eyes of the law.  But a limit of 0.3% is unfounded in science or fact, going back at least 150 years or more. Still today, there's a lot of confusion around cannabis -- including the basic definitions of 'marijuana' versus 'industrial hemp', and how to distinguish the two. We break down some of the history and facts behind these issues.  On this episode of Just Ask NaturPro we are going to talk about some of the history, science and controversy behind the plant, including where 0.3% came from, an essential illustration that nature does not obey the laws of man.
