Other Weird Facts

The weird nicknames aren’t the only weird facts about marijuana. Here are some other interesting facts you may not have known.

People Have Been Using it For a Long Time

People have been reaping the benefits of marijuana for a very long time. One museum for Virginia has evidence that there was a written reference to it in 2727 B.C. 

According to that, a Chinese emperor discovered marijuana and realized he could use it medically. 

Some People are Allergic to Marijuana

Marijuana is a plant, so it makes sense that some people are allergic to it. 

The pollen and the smoke can even cause an allergic reaction in some people. The allergies are rare, but they do happen. There are some reports of it, but because it is still illegal in some places, people may not have reported it.

If someone is allergic to marijuana, they may start coughing, sneezing, and having itchy or watery eyes. Some people even break out in hives. 

Marijuana Used to Be Legal

Medical marijuana actually used to be legal in the United States. 

Cannabis used to be used in medical tinctures. People who were selling it didn’t even have to put cannabis as an ingredient on the label. 

However, that all changed in 1906. America passed the Pure Food and Drug Act, and marijuana was illegal after that.

However, medical and recreational marijuana is getting closer and closer to being legal across the country.
