Maybe that is the gambit, to have them regulate grandma's chamomile tea.
BTW, marijuana is mentioned by name on the form 4473.
“Maybe that is the gambit, to have them regulate grandma’s chamomile tea.”
In the last few years there have been many proposals/bills regarding vitamins and supplements, it may only be a matter of time!
That's funny. The psychoactive incredient is mentioned in US Patent, #6,630,507

Cannabinoids have been found to have antioxidant properties, unrelated to NMDA receptor antagonism. This new found property makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment and prophylaxis of wide variety of oxidation associated diseases, such as ischemic, age-related, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. The cannabinoids are found to have particular application as neuroprotectants, for example in limiting neurological damage following ischemic insults, such as stroke and trauma, or in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease and HIV dementia. Nonpsychoactive cannabinoids, such as cannabidoil, are particularly advantageous to use because they avoid toxicity that is encountered with psychoactive cannabinoids at high doses useful in the method of the present invention. A particular disclosed class of cannabinoids useful as neuroprotective antioxidants is formula (I) wherein the R group is independently selected from the group consisting of H, CH.sub.3, and COCH.sub.3
