Do you know what high concentration cannabis is doing?

Learn More

Cannabis has been around a long time. But not like this. The large doses of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) now readily available can impact the mind and body in ways human beings have never experienced before. If you’re considering using high concentration products like oil, shatter, dab, and edibles, get some facts first. Scientists are particularly concerned about risks to young, developing brains and pregnant and nursing people.

There are some facts you should know

Colorado led the way in cannabis legalization. Now it’s time to lead the way in cannabis education. That means confronting some truths about this increasingly powerful drug and learning how to talk to each other about it respectfully and with solid information. This project takes a special look at high concentration products, which have been recently developed to contain many more times THC than the marijuana flower of a decade or two ago.

About Us

In Colorado — and increasingly, across the country — there’s more talk of cannabis than ever. Oddly, though, that hasn’t always meant more information. The Tea on THC is the place to learn the facts about high concentration cannabis.

Powered by the Colorado School of Public Health, we’re here to share facts. But we know that facts alone don’t mean much. Information has to come from someone you trust. So our top mission is to help people empower themselves and one another to talk about these powerful products.
