#26 Cannabis Alchemy with Dr. Donald Land
Listen now
Description
The cannabis plant performs some magical alchemy. Chemistry Professor Dr. Donald Land, PhD explains how compounds in cannabis change as molecules bind together and separate at different phases in the supply chain. He shares what cannabinoids you’ll find in a cannabis plant when it’s raw, when it’s heated, and when it’s exposed to air. We also discuss the different medicinal effects that we may experience when we consume the same cannabis through different methods, like inhalation vs. eating.
