“Govern me harder, daddy”
💀💀💀10 mg ain’t even enough to get a Fuckin mouse stoned tf
Watching this smoke my ZaZaThc Delta 8 thc 🤣
Why so much negativity? Her main concern isn’t stopping you from getting high. It’s the mass marketing of a synthetic drug that lacks substantial research and regulation like similar illicit substances.
And for the people claiming theyre confident the testing is being done and it’s safe. Who is telling you this? The companies selling the products? The websites with affiliate links to those companies?
Just think about it and be honest with yourself . Who seems more do concerned with your health? The doctor asking for more research and regulations for illicit substances or the companies promising a weed like high that’s third party tested, here’s a link to a PDF that means nothing to you.
I’m all for some bud to chill and help deal with some stress. And of course medical purposes. But these Delta companies are as bad as Big Tobacco.
They’re getting away with what they can while they can and don’t care what long term damage may occur on your account.
Lmao these people have literally no idea what they’re talking about
delta 8 gave me gas and diarrhea
Reading these comments most of D 8 hedz are committed and in denial about harm it causes. Glad I Quit Cold Turkey after doing Research.
I came here because I’m concerned about delta 8 regulation. I’m disappointed in how bias this is. She fails to address the possibility that 25 mg of delta 8 THC is not equivalent to 10 mg of delta 9 THC. I am very sensitive to regular THC (delta 9). 10 mg of delta 9 will mess me up. 20 mg of delta 8 gives me a good stable high that’s not overwhelming like 10 mg of delta 9.
Objectively speaking, it’s like saying Adderall 30 mg XR is equal to Vyvanse 30 mg. Yeah, both are amphetamines, BUT they are not the same chemical composition. Adderall is dextroamphetamine AND Levi amphetamine. As opposed to Vyvanse, which is just Dextroamphetamine.
Additionally, Vyvanse has a lower potency. To get a Vyvanse equivalent dosage to 30 MG XR of Adderall, it would need to be at least 50 MG of Vyvanse!
Coming back to my point, this SAME logic applies to delta 8 versus delta 9!!!!
If you want to call yourself a doctor, be objective. I’m very disappointed in this video.
She’s dumb another Dr said the issues with delta 8 is the process that it’s made is more synthetic. Check this Dr out. Yes bottom line make the real stuff legal already !!
She isn’t much of an expert if she thinks there is no 3rd party testing, and she is saying Delta 8 and Delta 9 are same strength!! Hahaha. Wow! Proof you can’t trust “the experts”! D9 THC is a major cannabinol where D8 is a minor cannabinol (meaning it takes more to get the potency)! She doesn’t understand the various cannabinols, and her expertise is on in Cannabis D9. She has no clue about the realities of the industry outside her niche. Sad
Drs don’t understand it weed because they outlawed it years ago
Brandon Marshall went bald quick …
She gets paid by the Cannabis Industry – they hate Delta 8 – it is cutting into their profits. That is the bottom line –
25mg, this lady is the confused one…..I have taken over 200 mg delta 8 and was totally fine. Ate alot, drank lots of water. Smiled and luaghed a lot.
It’s hurting you because we’re not buying pain killers
"we dont understand in the literature" lol
She’s right. We need to know EXACTLY what their putting in the products we use. Nay God keep us safe and free if addiction in the name if Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Amen.
Follow the science 🤦🏾♂️
If Delta 8 is made from hemp how is it a man made product?
"professional usage". She’s high.
Theres heavy contaminants in delta 8
This is a lie and misinformation.
All real Delta 8 products are 3rd party lab tested.
Nothing more than fear porn.
She sounds like a pharmaceutical lobbyist.
Delta 8 gets you half as high and last twice less
Figure it out nerds
So should I be taking crack wire hits from delta 8 carts or not….
Control freak
I use hemp for nerves and sleep
still so much fear mongering around weed.
When a news says its dangerous it ain’t dangerous… same news pushed the covid vaccine was safe
Drug pushers sure don’t like folks going around their evil cartel.
It’s all control freaks dictating what you can and can’t do with your own body and mind, including "Dr" Yafai. Body autonomy is the #1 precept of freedom.
So far heard the first few seconds of this video and its already hard to listen .
Delta 8 is just simply a changed form of natural cannabis and no its not like k2 because that was man made this is modified synthetically but it still has the same structure of the natural state of cannabis but just one molecule changed. With this change it allows us to consume a lower concentrated form of cannabis .
Meaning this is like the beer version of alcohol and its meant to control the high you want better . There is now an option for new consumers to try out cannabis for the first time .
The problem with delta 8 currently is its not regulated which you can argue is a good or bad thing . But I say the lack of knowledge of what to get and where to get d8 is the main issue here.
On the top of my head 3chi, skyhio, cannaclear , refferbay are trust worthy because they have been lab tested by many different companies.
This is the simplest way I can explain those so again get Delta 8 from trusted sources and you should be fine .
its garbage.. tastes bad, feels bad, garbage
Misinformation and scare tactics don’t really work anymore. I like how she said it’s synthetic. It’s not, but the drugs all of the doctors push are… so why would you possibly choose to use that argument against it.
Y’all do not use that stuff
It is sinthetic just like all the medicine pharma makes, the only difference is that this won’t kill you.
Quick fix…. smoke crack….
This is a very poorly informed video that is leaning on fear, uncertainty, and doubt. I would not be surprised to discover that this was funded by the cannabis industry, who is frustrated that a less regulated product is now competing with them for market share.
Shows like The Doctors really just prey on parents’ and stay-at-home moms’ fears without really providing much information. So much of what Dr. Yafai has said in this segment is either disingenuous, misleading, or flat-out false. Spouting numbers, trying to scare viewers by claiming one dose of Delta 8 is "as high as" 25 milligrams while comparing it to THC (claiming that 10 mg is a "professional" dose; what is that supposed to mean?). This doctor should know that, in medicine and science, numbers don’t mean anything. 1 mg of LSD may not sound like much, but that’s between four and ten times a standard dose. On the other hand, 500 mg of tylenol sounds like a lot in comparison, but that in and of itself is a standard pain relief/antipyretic dose. It is immoral and just downright wrong that she would come on this program (which itself is kind of a crock meant to just feed moral panics and sell products) and spout all this bullshit just to scare people about something that’s new, while also completely ignoring the very present and very real dangers of alcohol, tobacco, prescription drugs, and so many other things. Sickening.
Shame on you, Dr. Yafai.
FALSE. we are getting third party testing. she is a liar.
What about the company’s with 3rd party lab testing
She does NOT sound like an expert, just a paid hack for the tobacco and/or alcohol companies. She makes me ill listening to her BS!!
Alcohol : Millions of deaths each year from cancer.
Weed : Zero deaths each year from cancer, has some anti-cancer qualities.
We all know why the Feds want it kept illegal. To protect Big Pharma.
Delta 8 is not a joke. I have to take so many more hits to simulate a d9 high like 25 hits to get what 3 hits of d9 would do, so I ended up smoking like 10 grams of it in 3 weeks and edibles. I then quit cold turkey and right now as I type I am experiencing severe physical withdrawal symptoms that I have never had before. However this is very important that everyone interested in d8 should know. A milder high does not mean milder withdraw symptoms. Also bare in mind my delta 8 carts had all these weird noids like THC-x THC-p the whole thc alphabet. So anyway after just 1 day of not using the next day I had shakes, feeling hot then cold then both at the same time, manic energy, confused, standing in a room talking to myself for no reason, no sleep at all not even a single second and still feeling high strung, mild tremors and some very mild hallucinations but the absolute worse is the loss of appetite. I don’t know if you remember the very early strain of COVID that made people lose their appetite and cause food to taste like sand paper but that’s exactly what it feels like. Now I’m already underweight being almost 5"10 and only 118 pounds. But for almost 3 days now I haven’t been able to eat at all. I have lost at least 5 pounds so far. Now down to about 113 and it scares me! The other withdrawal symptoms I can deal with the but the not eating is breaking me. I’m afraid I’m going to loose to much weight and have to go to the hospital. I can only hope the withdrawals clear up soon but I have no idea how much longer that could be. So I checked into a rehab as an out patient not an in one, just so I could get some help so I could eat again before I shed anymore weight. It seemed kind of over dramatic but I live alone and I really didn’t know what else to do. Try as I may there just wasn’t a single piece of food i could bare to get down. I have never done hard drugs before in my life I don’t even drink caffeine because I didn’t like the idea of being physically addicted to it. Then out of no where I was blindsided with what felt like a cocktail of physical withdrawal symptoms. It has been very dramatic to say the least. I have taken tolerance breaks from d9 before and simply had 1 or 2 restless nights then I was 100% fine. Besides what is the big deal about delta 8 anyway? It is so weak. It is like smoking resin or year old d9. I dunno why people go out of there way to try and defend it. Not to mention some of the noids like thc-p are only 5 years old! No one even really knows wtf it is or exactly what it is doing except its supposedly 33x stronger than delta 9 and might be part of the reason I got such a rapid tolerance and withdrawals. After all this was only from 3 weeks of use. Not to mention the market for it is highly unregulated and very sketchy. If you live in an illegal state I really hope you read this. Delta 8 is a shitty, low grade, shady wtf is in this shit crap replacement for d9. It is peasant weed. Its what kings and queens would give to the commoners as they horded all the d9 to themselves. Or maybe its a government experiment on American citizens who knows? I just wish I had the money back I wasted experimenting with it. It is a lot cheaper than d9 but it’s just total shit. And years from now when d9 is finally federally legal and they crack down on d8 no one is even going to remember what d8 even was. Its a phase like when saliva was being sold at smoke shops before it was finally made illegal. It’s already illegal now in 12 states. It wont last.. And I for one will not be sorry to see it go.
P.s. I just wanted to say that I took 50 mg of D8 gummies from 3chi with a low tolerance and felt nothing so don’t let this whole 25 mg per edible fool you. Most "professional" smokers would need to take at least 100 mgs of D8 just to feel something whereas 25-30 mgs of delta 9 would be good. Hence why the Delta 8 edibles are sold at higher dosages. And while I do agree with most everything the woman is saying. I’ma have to pull into question her numbers lol. And why does she keep saying young teenagers you gota be 21 years old to buy delta 8…
It’s psychotropic not psychogenic I just wanted to say that.
