Show Notes

Dr. Lev continued her visit at March and Ash marijuana store. After meeting Terry the store manager in Part 1, she meets sits with the store owner in Part 2.

Brett, the owner tells stories of people who died after using marijuana, kids who need marijuana for pain, and teens who develop terrible addiction. Learn about the initiatives that are important to the legal marijuana industry.

Listen to the conversation and ask yourself if marijuana is really a medicine. Compare the ethics of a marijuana store that sells what is legal if people ask for it – to physicians who practice in hospitals and clinics and must balance risks and benefits before recommending a medicine or prescription. It would be malpractice to recommend or prescribe any medication that is known to harm someone, even if it is legal.
