But most of his friends were using an extra-strong version, known as dabs. Thinking it might help with the insomnia that plagued him in his senior year of high school, Noah picked up a small torch, grabbed the glass smoking device known as a dab rig and heated a yellow, waxy substance into a vapor that he slowly inhaled.<\/p>\n<p>For around two years, Noah, who\u2019s now 24 years old, said the habit made him feel great. The type of marijuana he was loading as many as five times a day into a discreet dab pen \u2014 similar in look to a vaping device \u2014 was a concentrate, 75% to 98% of which was THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, marijuana\u2019s psychoactive ingredient.<\/p>\n<p>Then Noah, who declined to give his last name due to concerns about discussing drug use, started vomiting a lot and having suicidal thoughts. He lost 30 pounds, had his gallbladder biopsied and was diagnosed with depression. No one could figure out what was wrong. Eventually, after looking up his symptoms online, he thought cannabis might be a possible cause.<\/p>\n<p>#Marijuana #Bloomberg #News <\/p>\n<p> &#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n<p>Like this video?
