ABOUT WORKSHOPS
There is a growing consumer demand for cannabidiol (CBD), a constituent of the cannabis plant, due to its purported medicinal benefits for a myriad of health conditions. Plant-derived extracts, suspended in oils, tinctures, topicals or vaporization liquid, represent most of the retail market for CBD. Unfortunately, the inadequate regulation and oversight of the cannabis industry has led to a lot of confusion.
Blaze Therapeutics believes in educating the public so that families, individuals and local law enforcement can make informed decisions when shopping in regards to holistic and alternative products.
