About Legal Cannabis
Cannabis is a flowering plant. Species of cannabis are Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderalis. Cannabis plants have many varieties, out of which two most prominent ones are marijuana and hemp. Predominantly, cannabis contains two cannabinoids tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). THC is highly psychoactive and causes intoxication. Thus, the use of cannabis is not legalized in many countries. There are only few countries where cannabis products are legalized for either medicinal or for recreational purposes, and out of them, Uruguay in fact has legalized it for both recreational as well as medicinal purposes.
