Are THC Drinks Replacing Alcohol? | TDR Cannabis in 5

What this episode covers

THC-infused beverages are becoming one of the fastest-growing segments of the cannabis industry, and new research suggests they’re doing more than offering consumers another option—they may also be changing drinking habits.In the latest TDR Cannabis in Five, host Shadd Dales breaks down new survey data and research highlighted by Marijuana Moment, showing that many THC beverage consumers report drinking less alcohol, while some say they’ve stopped drinking altogether.The episode also looks at multiple studies examining cannabis beverages through the lens of harm reduction, why researchers believe they may help reduce alcohol consumption, and how these findings connect to testimony presented during the DEA’s Administrative Law Judge hearing on cannabis rescheduling.Shadd also covers the growing debate surrounding the proposed federal restrictions on hemp-derived THC products, how consumers say they would respond if those products disappear from the market, and why this issue extends beyond cannabis policy into broader public health discussions.As the federal rescheduling process continues, conversations around alcohol substitution, harm reduction and cannabis beverages are becoming a larger part of the policy debate. This episode breaks down the latest research, the regulatory backdrop, and where this conversation stands today.#Cannabis #THCBeverages #CannabisNews #MarijuanaNews #HarmReduction #CannabisInvesting #CannabisStocks #ScheduleIII #Alcohol #CannabisIndustry #ALJHearing #CannabisReschedulingWant to see more Cannabis Reform?🎬    • DEA Hearing Ends: What Happens Next? | TDR...  🎬    • 280E Tax Fight: IRS Pushes Back on Cannabi...  🎬    • 280E Tax Fight: IRS Pushes Back on Cannabi...  Want to stay updated on Cannabis, Small Cap, AI, and Crypto?Subscribe to our Daily Baked newsletter:https://newsletter.thedalesreport.com...Find us on social media and podcast platforms:✅ Facebook:   / thedalesreport  ✅ Twitter:   / thedalesreport  ✅ Instagram:   / dalesreport  ✅ LinkedIn:   / the-dales-report  Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/TDRTradetoBlackon...Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/TDRTradeToBlackon...Website: https://thedalesreport.com/For copyright matters, contact:[email protected] Disclaimer (Financial Interests)The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of any company, organization, or employer.
