California is one step closer to enacting a law that would ban Skittles, Hot Tamales, and a host of other food items that contain chemicals linked to health issues.Assembly Bill 418, proposed by Jesse Gabriel (D-Woodland Hills), passed overwhelmingly in the California State Assembly last week and now heads to the State Senate.The bill would prohibit the manufacture, sale, or distribution of products containing Red Dye No. 3, Titanium Dioxide, Potassium Bromate, Brominated Vegetable Oil, or Propyl Paraben in the Golden State.Those chemicals, which are already banned in the European Union, have been linked to cancer, reproductive issues, and developmental issues in children, Gabriel says.“It’s unacceptable that the U.S. is so far behind the rest of the world when it comes to banning these dangerous additives,” Gabriel said in a statement. “We don’t love our children any less than they do in Europe and it’s not too much to ask food and beverage manufacturers to switch to the safer alte...Smoking cannabis doesn't carry same risks as tobacco: UCLA study

A new study from researchers at the UCLA found some good news for cannabis smokers: one of the major risks associated with tobacco smoking isn't connected with marijuana.The study, "Impact of Marijuana Smoking on COPD Progression in a Cohort of Middle-Aged and Older Persons," was published in the journal "Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Diseases" this month.The researchers compared groups of people who currently, used to or have never smoked marijuana as part of the longitudinal research. Many of the subjects were studied for more than four years."Neither former nor current marijuana smoking of any lifetime amount was associated with evidence of COPD progression or its development," the study said.Cannabis advocates, including the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, celebrated the findings, noting that they "are consistent with those of prior studies concluding that cannabis inhalation, even long-term, is not positively associated with COPD, lung cancer, or irrever...Walmart is offering virtual vet visits -- for free!
