Wax/Hash Oil is it safe???

                                                                               

Wax Is Weed’s Next Big Thing And No One Knows If It’s Safe

California dispensaries say butane hash oil, or “wax,” now accounts for 40% of sales — despite potential health risks and home lab explosions on the rise. With no regulation and a lack of good information, stoners turn to self-appointed, and self-interested, “experts” like Matt Rize — but at what cost?

                                                                     

Police all over the country are warning people of a new potent marijuana drug called pot wax.

Pot wax or Wax is 10-20 times more potent than normal marijuana.  It's made from THC that's extracted from the marijuana plant.

Authorities say it's anywhere from 85-99% pure THC, and it's being blamed for fires and deaths all over the country.

It looks like ear wax, but listen to this:  

"Very concerned for the young people who are experimenting with the drugs and those using this potent form of marijuana," 

Authorities say pot wax or has oil as some call it  is the latest 'cannabis craze' sweeping the country. Because of how the drug is manufactured, authorities say pot wax is highly addictive and explosive.

"These labs are similar to meth labs in that the chemicals used is extremely flammable and explosive," 

                                                                           

Effects on the body from normal marijuana 

THC stimulates cells in the brain to release dopamine, creating euphoria, according to NIDA. It also interferes with how information is processed in the hippocampus, which is part of the brain responsible for forming new memories. 

THC can induce hallucinations, change thinking and cause delusions. On average, the effects last about two hours, and kick in 10 to 30 minutes after ingestion. Psychomotor impairment may continue after the perceived high has stopped, however. 

"In some cases, reported side effects of THC include elation, anxiety, tachycardia, short-term memory recall issues, sedation, relaxation, pain-relief and many more," said A.J. Fabrizio, a marijuana chemistry expert at Terra Tech Corp, a California agricultural company focused on local farming and medical cannabis.

Risks

The effects of marijuana make it a popular drug. In fact, it is considered one of the most commonly used illicit drugs in the world. But these effects also concern mental health advocates. THC can trigger a relapse in schizophrenic symptoms, according to NIDA.
Another possible risk of consuming THC comes in the form of impaired motor skills. Marijuana may impair driving or similar tasks for approximately three hours after consumption and it is the second-most common psychoactive substance found in drivers, after alcohol, reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. People taking medical marijuana are instructed not to drive until it has been established that they can tolerate it and conduct motor tasks successfully.
getting back to Wax or hash oil as some call it 20 times the potency of regular old TCH  be your own guide but ask me this stuff is very unsafe especially for the children!
Would love some feedback on this issue

Peace!
