BEST MOMENTS “I use a slow cooker to infused my oil. The temperature should not be greater than 240 degrees when cooking with cannabis” “I recommend Canola oil if new to infused cooking…I’m from Canada, Maple is big here…I love infused Jerk meals. I guess that’s the Jamaican in me” “I started my company to normalized adult cannabis use. Although it’s legal in some countries, there’s still a lot of stigmas attached. If I could present it to people with food, it wouldn’t be so foreign and scary…. something people can relate to….” Chef Necole Hines VALUABLE RESOURCES Follow Dr. O on social: IG: https://www.instagram.com/wcihealth19/ LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/dr-lola-o-ohonba-pharm-d-247352199 Clubhouse: https://www.joinclubhouse.com/club/Cannabis-Psychedelic Subscribe on Apple Podcast, wci-health.com/podcast.
