// From the Episode
Dr. Amanda Ryman argues the cannabis industry tells consumers their products are tested and safe but never advises moderation - similar to the alcohol industry saying 'drink responsibly' without saying 'drink less.' Traditional substance abuse treatment programs completely miss the mark for cannabis because they treat it like hard drugs. The industry pushes products to market without thought about whether they are best for people to be consuming, paralleling how the pharmaceutical industry pushes dangerous opioids for profit.
