We need to talk about Psychedelics....

From legitimate medication in the 60's to a party drug in the 70's psychedelics  similar to Cannabis, have received a bad rep! However it would appear that with the legalisations of Psychedelic 'treatment' in many states in the US and the growing public interest in the UK for mental health treatment it is looking like they are making returning as a legitimate form of treatment (although we are loathed to say this!) so lets stick with therapy.If you have an interest in this area and haven't yet seen the recent BBC2 programme 'Psychedelics - The Drug Trail' then we can highly recommend it. Along with Fantastic Fungi on Netflix.If your interested but...

Why the UN's decision to unanimously postpone the Cannabis vote is a huge blow!

Why the UN's decision to unanimously postpone the Cannabis vote is a huge blow!

This week we received the disappointing news that the United Nations have made the decision to delay indefinitely the vote on de-scheduling Cannabis. The World Health Organisation (WHO) stated in an open letter to the UN, back in February, that it is their recommendation that Cannabis should be de-scheduled. The World Health Organisation Expert Committee on Drug Dependence (ECDD) released a report on Cannabis extract showing evidence that not only is it safe but highlighting that it isn’t addictive. The report also highlights that no public health problems, like driving under the influence have been associated with Cannabis extract. “In humans, Cannabidiol exhibits no effects indicative of any abuse or dependence potential,” wrote...

Medicinal Cannabis will be legal by this Autumn! Hoorah! We are delighted to hear that Medicinal Cannabis will be available in the UK by this Autumn, to those who would benefit from it.

We thought we give you the low own. We need to be clear from the outset that we are not able to speak about the medicinal benefits of our products,...

Will I still be able to buy CBD after the 1st of April 2021?

Will I still be able to buy CBD after the 1st of April 2021?

A bit of back ground to our story in relation to Novel foods…... Back in November 2018 we were sent a letter by our local council in London, after a routine inspection, to say that we had to stop trading with immediate effect due to the reclassification by the FSA of CBD to a Novel food. So our claim to fame is that we were the first company in the country to be served with this notice and also the first company to find out what was in store for the CBD industry.  Everyone in the industry thought it was...
