Asked a pt about cannabis use and was told “just regular weed.” When I pressed about potency, they said 28% THC.
Another said they used cannabis that was “not very strong”… anywhere from 11-40% THC.
Suffice it to say the stuff out there today is not your father‘s marijuana.

You put too much emphasis on THC without understanding the impact terpene content has on the experience. High THC is not the end-all be-all in what gives cannabis "potent" effects.
Finally, users self-titrate. The higher the THC level, the less one consumes for the same effect.

Stale week, terpenes, and self-titration are familiar "pro-marijuana" claims, but they are only partially supported by the evidence.
Here, for example, is a study on the effects of "freshness"... a 6-7 fold increase in potency instead of a 10-x increase.

I think what you mean is there's little evidence by government control not by 10,000 or more years of legitimate use worldwide and hundreds of thousands of peer reviewed research Journal articles 9 years chemo patient here no fucking opioids you think that would be better?
