So this means that the FDA is now regulating the chemicals as drugs. The implications are:
- you can't claim to cure/heal anything unless your product undergoes FDA formal approval. Then you can market it as a drug.
- you can't mix the chemicals into food and call it food. If they are present, it's classified as a drug.
- THC and CBD are considered "active" therefore you can't slide them into supplements or market supplements with those chemicals. The use of those chemicals as supplements is still being evaluated and they haven't issued a regulation on it.
- other subtances of the plant are recognized as generally safe so they can be used for other food / cosmetic applications
