Whether you are new to the world of cannabis or a seasoned user, it’s important to separate fact from fiction. At Mana Supply, a chain of cannabis dispensaries, we understand the importance of providing accurate information to our valued customers. Our knowledgeable and welcoming staff is dedicated to ensuring that you feel like part of our ‘ohana’ (family) while dispelling common myths surrounding this ancient plant.

Myth: Cannabis is a Gateway Drug

One of the most persistent myths about cannabis is that it leads to the use of harder drugs. However, numerous studies have debunked this claim. Cannabis itself is not addictive, and the vast majority of users do not progress to other substances. The gateway theory fails to account for various environmental and social factors that contribute to drug abuse.

Myth: Cannabis Causes Laziness and Lack of Motivation

• This stereotype is often perpetuated by media portrayals and outdated stereotypes.
• In reality, the effects of cannabis vary greatly among individuals, and many users report increased creativity and productivity when used responsibly.
• Factors such as strain, dosage, and individual physiology play a significant role in the effects experienced.

Myth: Cannabis is Harmful to Your Health

While excessive and long-term use of any substance can have negative consequences, moderate cannabis use has not been linked to significant health risks. In fact, many people use cannabis for medicinal purposes, such as managing chronic pain, reducing anxiety, and stimulating appetite.
