Even though the use of marijuana has become a far more popular choice to rely on for the treatment of a range of health concerns, there is still much that the wider public doesn’t know nor understand about the plant and its products. “One would have thought that maybe once the industry became legal in several states across the country, that this would change. Yet, there are still many myths doing the rounds and as people simply don’t know the truth, it is easy for them to believe these stories,” says Nate Balducci, the marketing director of the reputable recreational dispensary, Rocky Mountain Cannabis.

As Balducci and the Rocky Mountain Cannabis team are always at work, sharing information to not only their clients but also the wider public, they are all too aware of the impact that these myths can have on their industry.

“One myth that we often come across is that people believe that smoking pot causes cancer. When it comes to this myth, we usually must explain that smoking any product does contain certain cancer-causing substances. Just as when you are smoking cigarettes the effect is the same. However, nobody smoking marijuana ever consumes as many joints per day as a smoker does cigarettes. Thus, it is not a fair comparison to make,” Balducci continues.

He then continues by expanding on another myth they often hear stating that the use of marijuana products leads to criminal activity. He says that criminal activity is much rather a choice made by people themselves than the substances they use. He then states that there are far more arrests due to drunk driving and other crimes resulting from people being under the influence of alcohol than the number of people ever arrested for marijuana-related concerns.

“One myth that truly gets to us is when we are accused of selling a harmful and toxic substance. Regardless of how much marijuana you use, the levels in your bloodstream will never reach a point where it becomes toxic or dangerous. This is however not the case for any other kind of hard drug or even alcohol. People can die of alcohol poisoning. This will however never happen from marijuana use. What people also don’t keep in consideration is that these other substances don’t have many benefits to your health, while many rely on the numerous health benefits that THC and CBD have,” Balducci concludes about the myths their recreational dispensary’s team must defend regularly.
