Abstract
Background: Cannabis (Cannabis sativa L.) has garnered attention in the fields of medicine and public health due to its medicinal properties, such as appetite stimulation, stress relief, and seizure reduction. However, the growing use of cannabis-infused food and beverages has raised safety concerns, particularly for children and adolescents who may consume THC and other cannabinoids at levels exceeding legal limits, potentially affecting their physical and mental development. Objectives: 1. To analyze cannabinoid levels in food, beverages, and condiments containing cannabis 2. To assess the health risks and impacts on vulnerable groups, particularly children and adolescents 3. To study the production processes and cannabis content in products by producers 4. To propose preventive measures to limit cannabis product access among children and adolescents Research Methodology: This cross-sectional study involved cannabinoid analysis in cannabis-and hemp-infused products, quantitative and qualitative interviews with vulnerable groups (children and adolescents), and interviews with vendors and producers. Findings: Among 129 samples tested, approximately 30% showed no THC presence, while 17 samples exceeded the legal THC limits (0.2% by weight), posing potential health risks, especially for young consumers. Additionally, interviews with vendors and consumers revealed varying levels of knowledge and awareness regarding the risks associated with cannabis in food products. Adolescents who consume regularly mentioned that it helped relax, release stress and gain more work etc. which make them to reuse again and again. This may lead to dependent situation in the future. Conclusion: This study underscores the need for regulation and monitoring of cannabinoid levels in cannabis products, especially those accessible to children and adolescents, to ensure consumer safety and promote responsible cannabis use. Recommendations: 1. Strictly regulate the use of cannabis in food and beverages, including setting safe and appropriate THC limits 2. Provide educational programs about cannabis-related risks to children, adolescents, and vendors 3. Enforce clear and stringent laws and guidelines to prevent cannabis product access among children and adolescents
