It is the time of year when things tend to speed up at work, at home, and in politics….but can a gummy help you stop and take a breath?

Additionally, they saw no interference with THC’s subjective, cognitive or physiological effects when co-administered with d-limonene, as well as no effects from d-limonene alone that differed from the placebo test.

If anxiety is frequent, it is important speak to a health professional to develop a routine for long term help.

Bring on the bliss in as little as 15 minutes with Rare Cannabinoid Company’s newest release.

There’s no magic wand you can wave to instantly improve your mood, but the new Mood Mints from Rare Cannabinoid Company might just be as close as it comes. Utilizing a combination of hemp-based THC, CBC, and CBD, Mood Mints, like the brand’s famous Mood Gummies, are designed to elevate your mood and provide a relaxing sense of calm.

The X factor, though, is that unlike traditional edibles, THC+CBC Mood Mints are made using nanoemulsification. That means a much faster onset of effects, as cannabinoids are converted into super-small nano particles, allowing for more efficient absorption in the body.

Take RCC’s Cannabinoid Quiz and choose between a free packet of 20 mints ($25 value) or other free products from RCC’s premium line like THCV gummies, CBG gummies, or CBN cannabinoid gummies with or without delta-9 THC.

Rare Cannabinoid Company sent our team a jar of their new Mood Mints so we could judge for ourselves how the experience stacks up. The results are in, and we’re happy to report that RCC more than stuck the landing. It’s the successful union of format and formula that makes these mints sing. The fast-acting cannabinoid combination and micro-dosed chewable tablet format come together to offer something uniquely fresh.

• Mood-elevating cannabinoids: Mood Mints utilize a carefully chosen combination of THC, CBC, and CBD, selected for their particular mood-enhancing effects.

• Strong, fast-acting effects: Mood Mints are made using nanoemulsification, a process that takes large oil droplets and breaks them down into tiny particles, enhancing bioavailability and allowing for more efficient absorption. Put simply; nano effects come on stronger and more quickly than with traditional edibles.

• Solid format, micro-dose: Mood Mints are chewable tablets made of solid, compressed powder that won’t melt, stick, or crush. Each mint contains 2.5mg THC, 2.5mg CBC, and 12.5mg CBD, allowing you to calibrate your ideal dose easily.

Test driving the Mood Mints experience

After a few weeks of getting familiar with the Mood Mints, I frankly can’t get enough of this new format from Rare Cannabinoid Company. They occupy a unique niche: effects come on quickly & efficiently, more similar to taking a few hits of a joint, but you can easily take them anywhere with no smell or ash or smoke like traditional edibles. I’m a convert, and I’ve found that I’d rather have these mints in my stash than most other formats.

Minty tablet format

The THC Mints are small, white chewable tablets like a breath mint. It’s not the flashiest format for THC, but that’s part of why I love them. Because they’re made from solid, compressed powder, you can throw them in a bag anytime and they won’t melt, break apart, or stick together. They have a light vanilla mint flavor that’s not too sweet or too lingering, and they never feel overly chalky in your mouth even if you’re taking multiple at a time.

Oftentimes it’s not convenient or possible to smoke a little flower, not to mention dial in a specific amount of THC, and I just don’t have enough of a sweet tooth to want a gummy any old time, especially if I’ll need to eat more than one to get my preferred dose. The Mood Mints offer a precise dose that’s uber-convenient, easy to eat, and holds up to travel and time.

Fast acting, easy dosing

Mood Mints use nanotechnology to avoid another complicating factor of traditional edibles: the long kick-in time. In one of my tests, I took two mints (5mg dose) and started a stopwatch to see how long it would take to start feeling effects—I hit pause when I started feeling lifted at a cool 16 minutes. There are lots of scenarios, be it before bed, getting off work, or settling into a party, where the more typical 45+ minutes effects timing of an edible works great, but I loved that with the Mood Mints, I could take a dose and know that my mood-boost was just around the corner.

Another resounding win for these mints comes from their dosing. With 2.5mg THC, 2.5mg CBC, and 12.5mg CBD per mint, you can precisely dial in your consumption for the potency you’re looking for. For those with lower tolerances or when I wanted just a mini mood boost without overly strong intoxicating effects, a single mint does the trick. It’s just as easy to take four mints at once for a standard recreational dose of 10mg THC.

There have been so many times when I want a stronger dose and have to eat multiple gummies to get there—maybe that sounds appealing to you (and Rare Cannabinoid Company truly has some of the tastiest gummies around), but for me, I much preferred taking a few quick tablets. The same goes for when you want a smaller dose—rather than splitting a gummy in half or quarters and crossing your fingers the cannabinoid content is evenly distributed (+ storing your weird, sticky half-gummy), you can take one precisely dosed mint and call it a day.

Rare Cannabinoid Company’s signature mood-elevating formula

Let’s not forget why we’re all here: those sweet mood-boosting effects. In our current hemp boom, there are lots of places online where you can order products to get a classic delta-9 THC high. Rare Cannabinoid Company is in a class of its own, however, in terms of the quality and thoughtfulness of their cannabinoid combinations and the tailored effects they produce. The Mood Mints are a shining example of this fact.

Delta-9 THC is one of the most prevalent cannabinoids found in cannabis plants, it’s the classic THC we know and love, the one that gets you high. Its ability to produce psychoactive, euphoric, relaxing effects is well studied.

CBC is a less prevalent cannabinoid found in cannabis and hemp plants, it’s non-intoxicating on its own, and while less research has been conducted on CBC as THC and CBD, current studies suggest that CBC has the “most antidepressant-like effects” of all cannabinoids followed by THC and CBD. It’s been shown to boost the brain’s “bliss molecule,” anandamide.

CBD is the most prevalent cannabinoid found in hemp plants. It’s also non-intoxicating and has been well-studied for its ability to encourage relaxation and stress relief. CBD may also help boost the overall effectiveness of other cannabinoids due to a phenomenon known as the entourage effect.

Rare Cannabinoid Company combines these three key cannabinoids in their Mood Mints to offer a powerful mood-boosting result. If you’re in need of a quick lift in your day, the Mood Mints provide.

Rare Cannabinoid Company are experts when it comes to creating unique formulations out of—as their name implies—rare cannabinoids, and the Mood Mints are just the tip of the iceberg. For example, they offer the strongest THCV gummies on the market. Not only do they contain high-potency THCV for energy and appetite suppression but also CBD for the entourage effect. And you can choose to have them with or without THC. They also offer CBG gummies for pain and inflammation and CBN gummies for sleep with THC and without THC. The ability to customize your effects experience to that degree is a rare-to-find feature that keeps RCC’s products at the top of our rotation.

Stay fresh

Rare Cannabinoid Company’s THC+CBC Mood Mints come in two sizes, 50-mint packets and 120-mint jars. If you’d like to test out the Mood Mints before committing to a larger jar, you can take RCC’s online Cannabinoid Quiz—you’ll learn more about the best cannabinoids and products for you, and at the end, you’ll be able to select from a list of free product samples, including a free 20-mint packet of the THC+CBC Mood Mints (a $25 value). 

Do not drive or operate machinery while taking this product. You must be 21 years or older to purchase THC + CBC Mood Mints and must keep them out of children’s reach. Although these edibles are derived from hemp, they contain THC and you could therefore possibly test positive for THC on a cannabis drug test. Mood Mints cannot be shipped internationally. Availability subject to law. 

Kamala Harris Says ‘We Need To Legalize’ Marijuana For First Time As Democratic Presidential Nominee

In a groundbreaking moment for her presidential campaign, Vice President Kamala Harris has publicly declared the need to legalize marijuana, a statement that has reverberated across the political landscape. During her recent appearance on the popular podcast “All the Smoke,” she stated unequivocally, “We need to legalize it and stop criminalizing this behavior.” As Marijuana Moment covered, this declaration not only highlights her commitment to cannabis reform but also positions her as a progressive leader within the Democratic Party as she prepares for the 2024 presidential election.

Harris’s comments come at a time when public perception of marijuana is shifting dramatically. With a growing number of states legalizing cannabis for recreational and medicinal use, and an increasing number of Americans supporting legalization, Harris’s stance may resonate with voters who prioritize social justice and criminal reform. This article delves into the implications of her statement, the historical context surrounding marijuana legalization, and what this means for her campaign and the broader political landscape.

The Historical Context of Marijuana Legalization

 A Brief Overview

The journey toward marijuana legalization in the United States has been long and fraught with controversy. Cannabis was widely used in the early 20th century for medicinal purposes until it became stigmatized during the 1930s. The passage of the Marihuana Tax Act of 1937 effectively criminalized its use, setting off decades of punitive drug policies that disproportionately affected communities of color.

The War on Drugs, initiated in the 1980s, further entrenched these disparities, leading to mass incarceration rates that continue to impact millions of Americans today. According to the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Black individuals are nearly four times more likely to be arrested for marijuana possession than their white counterparts, despite similar usage rates.

Shifting Attitudes

In recent years, public attitudes toward marijuana have shifted dramatically. A Gallup poll from 2023 revealed that 68% of Americans support legalizing cannabis, up from just 12% in 1969. This shift is particularly pronounced among younger voters, with nearly 80% of those aged 18-29 favoring legalization. As more states move toward legalization 33 states and Washington D.C. have legalized medical marijuana, while 21 states have legalized recreational use the conversation around cannabis is evolving.

Kamala Harris’s Position on Marijuana

A Longstanding Advocate

Kamala Harris has been vocal about her support for marijuana legalization long before her recent podcast appearance. As California’s Attorney General from 2011 to 2017, she faced criticism for her handling of marijuana-related offenses; however, she later shifted her stance to advocate for reform. In 2018, she co-sponsored the Marijuana Justice Act, which aimed to decriminalize cannabis at the federal level and expunge nonviolent marijuana convictions.

Harris’s advocacy is rooted in a belief that legalization can address systemic inequalities perpetuated by decades of harsh drug laws. By advocating for legalization and expungement, she aims to rectify past injustices and create economic opportunities for those disproportionately affected by cannabis prohibition.

The Podcast Declaration

During her appearance on “All the Smoke,” hosted by former NBA players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson, Harris articulated her vision for a future where marijuana is legalized nationwide. She emphasized that “the war on drugs has failed” and highlighted how legalization could benefit communities historically marginalized by punitive drug policies.

Her statement is significant not only because it reinforces her commitment to social justice but also because it distinguishes her from President Biden, who has not fully endorsed legalization despite expressing support for decriminalization and expungement efforts.

Implications for Her Campaign

Harris’s declaration could energize young voters who prioritize social justice issues and are more likely to support candidates advocating for cannabis reform. As seen in previous elections, younger voters have become increasingly influential in shaping electoral outcomes. By aligning herself with their views on marijuana legalization, Harris may enhance her appeal among this demographic.

Legalizing marijuana aligns with broader criminal justice reform efforts that many Democrats advocate. By framing cannabis legalization as part of a larger strategy to address systemic racism and inequality within the justice system, Harris can position herself as a candidate committed to meaningful change.

As a leading figure in the Democratic Party, Harris’s stance on marijuana could influence party dynamics leading up to the primaries. While some moderate Democrats may be hesitant about full legalization due to potential backlash from conservative voters, Harris’s bold declaration could encourage other candidates to adopt similar positions or risk alienating progressive voters.

 The Broader Political Landscape

 Bipartisan Support for Legalization

Interestingly, support for marijuana legalization is not confined to one political party. Recent polls indicate that a significant portion of Republicans also favors legalization. This bipartisan support presents an opportunity for candidates like Harris to appeal to a wider audience by framing cannabis reform as an issue that transcends party lines.

Economic Opportunities

Legalizing marijuana has economic implications as well. The cannabis industry has emerged as a lucrative market, generating billions in revenue and creating thousands of jobs across various sectors. By advocating for legalization, Harris can highlight potential economic benefits that resonate with both liberal and conservative voters concerned about job creation and economic growth.

 Public Health Considerations

While advocating for legalization, it is essential to address public health concerns associated with increased access to marijuana. Critics often raise issues related to addiction rates and mental health effects. Harris’s campaign will need to navigate these concerns carefully by promoting responsible use and emphasizing education around potential risks while advocating for regulation similar to alcohol and tobacco.

 Conclusion

Kamala Harris’s declaration that “we need to legalize” marijuana marks a pivotal moment in her presidential campaign and reflects broader societal shifts regarding cannabis use. As she positions herself as a progressive leader advocating for social justice and economic opportunity through marijuana reform, her stance may resonate deeply with voters seeking change. As we approach the 2024 election cycle, it will be fascinating to observe how this issue evolves within political discourse. Will other candidates follow suit? How will public opinion continue to shift? One thing is clear: Kamala Harris’s commitment to legalizing marijuana signals a new chapter in American politics one where progressive values intersect with pressing social issues. As Harris continues her campaign trail with this renewed focus on cannabis reform, it remains essential for voters to engage critically with these discussions and consider how policies around marijuana can shape not only individual lives but also communities across America. In conclusion, Kamala Harris’s bold assertion during “All the Smoke” encapsulates a growing movement toward normalization and acceptance of cannabis use in America a movement that reflects changing attitudes toward drug policy and social justice at large. As we look forward to the upcoming election cycle, one can only hope that this conversation continues to evolve toward greater understanding and equity in our society.
