Towards Safer Cannabis Consumer Products: The Importance of testing for Heavy Metals

Podcast

In this podcast we will cover how heavy metal contamination can occur during the entirety of the cannabis life cycle including: • Cultivation and harvesting • Extraction and processing • Testing and measurement • Finished Product We will also explore the impact that this type of contamination can have on consumer safety and how it is regulated.
