Hemp varieties typically contain around a 1:20 THC to CBD ratio, where as marijuana has been bred to lower percentages of CBD and may contain a 20:1 or even higher THC to CBD content ratio. (Hemp Facts, 1997) Not only are there not high enough levels of THC to cause the psychoactive affects that “users” are looking for, but the elevated CBD content of hemp would prevent the “user” from ever achieving a “high” no matter the amount of hemp they consumed. Countries which allow industrial hemp farming have not noted problems with hemp being used as a drug. However, the United States government appears to be unwilling to face the actual facts regarding the differences between industrial hemp and
All three groups conducted a Reaction Time Task consisting of 44 trials. * Results The current results failed to support the hypothesis ‘caffeine consumption causes a significant decrease in reaction time’ (Regular coffee and decaffeinated coffee (U=11.00, N = 12; p=.262), regular coffee and base line (U=9.00, N = 12; p=.150). Conclusion The present investigation, failed to distinguish significant differences between participants caffeine consumption and reaction time. The data gathered may have been subjected to confounding variables influencing results and therefore failing to support the original hypothesis. Introduction: Caffeine is a widely consumed substance, being found in food as well as beverages (Brice and Smith, 2002).
However, the difference is the role in which it plays during the reaction since in wintergreen it is substituted as the carboxylic acid but in order to produce aspirin it is used as the alcohol. The substance which is common in both aspirin and wintergreen is the salicylic acid. 6. Fats and oils consist of any form of acid. However, the alcohol remains fairly constant in the form of glycerol or in other words propane -1,2,3- triol.
The Effects of Consumption on High Fructose Corn Syrup. High fructose corn syrup is a sweetener made by processing corn syrup to increase the level of fructose, usually to between 42% and 55% of the total sugar, with the balance being glucose. It is used extensively as a sweetener in processed foods and soft drinks, particularly soda and baked goods, but it is included also in many foods not normally thought of as sweet foods (“High”). High fructose corn syrup must be banned from all human consumption because of the negative health issues. High fructose corn syrup is associated with liver scarring.
It can also be extracted from the combination of uric acid. Along with coffee, tea is the most common natural source of caffeine. To successfully extract caffeine from tea leaves it’s best to use tannin. The term tannin denotes a class of compounds that have specific
The main difference between hemp and marijuana is the concentration of THC. The amount of THC in hemp is much lower at approximately 0.3% compared to marijuana which can be anywhere from 5-25%. The fact that hemp contains THC has been a major argument for not legalizing it in the United States. The truth is hemp has such a low concentration of THC a recreational marijuana smoker could smoke an acre of it and get nothing more than a headache for their efforts. (Earlywine) Hemp has been cultivated world wide throughout history with the earliest use dating back more than 8000 years ago in Taiwan.

Secretes pancreatic juice, insulin, glucagon, duodenum, and somatostatin into the bloodstream. Regulates blood sugar and completes the breakdown of protein, carbohydrates and fats 17. Responsible for the production and maintenance of the protective mucous blanket by synthesizing and secreting glycoproteins known as mucins. 18. Stores and concentrates bile 19.
It was concluded that Excedrin tablets consist of acetaminophen, aspirin, and caffeine. Both of these techniques are both effective when needed to find the area and concentration. After using three different calibration curves and the line formula; final areas were found for each ingredient. Acetaminophen had a concentration of 0.02 mg/mL caffeine 0.06 mg/mL and aspirin 0.21 mg/mL. It is concluded that these are the three ingredients in a tablet of Excedrin.
Research proves otherwise. 8 of the 10 states that legalized medical marijuana by 2006 saw a decrease in teen use of marijuana from 1999-2006. (ProCon.org) There are several pro’s for legalizing medical marijuana. “The FDA or others could regulate the quality and safety of drugs, and it could be a source of additional tax revenues.
