Mental health specialists have warned that weed gummy candies, chocolate and cookies are just as damaging as smoked marijuana – if not more.
Marijuana you can eat – known as edibles – is often marketed as a less potent, ‘healthier’ alternative to inhaling the drug.
Many popular products are presented in brightly-colored packaging and shaped to look like teddy bears or jelly snakes.
Yet speaking to DailyMail.com, top experts have accused the firms who make the candies of ‘decieiving’ consumers into ‘believing they are safe’.
Although not smoking cannabis spares you lung and heart damage, psychiatrists say eating it is more harmful for mental health.
