As cannabis becomes more integrated within mainstream culture, millions are becoming more educated on the many benefits of THC and cannabinoids. Not only does cannabis consumption lower insulin resistance, but it also improves fasting insulin and facilitates metabolic function. More athletes and even those engaged in moderate recreational fitness have incredible benefits from daily consumption of the once demonized plant.

Coupled with the pain-relieving effects of both plant and human-derived cannabinoids, cannabis and exercise seem to go hand in hand if you’re looking to improve your physical health.

A pig who was caught tucking into cannabis plants gave officers some trouble as he REFUSED to give up his stash.

The feral porker, who was caught in Toowoomba in Queensland, Australia, was too large for the cops to seize the drugs, according to the Courier Mail .

Police said that they attended a house and saw a man inside an enclosed pen.

Washington State troopers are ramping up efforts to enforce a new portion of the state's marijuana law, which makes it illegal to have an open container of pot in your car.

The law went into affect on Sept. 26 and is similar to the state's alcohol open container law.

The law states that marijuana must be in its original sealed package and stored in the trunk of your car or behind the backseat. It also extends to pot-infused edibles.

Driving with an open container of pot is a traffic infraction that carries an $136 dollar fine.

Troopers say that they are seeing an increasing number of drivers with marijuana.
