Yarndi

What is yarndi (marijuana, gunja, cannabis, mull, grass)?

Yarndi comes from a plant called Cannabis Sativa. The leaves and buds of the yarndi plant can be mixed into food and eaten, pressed into an oil, or dried and smoked.

Yarndi has a chemical in it called THC (delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol), making you feel ‘high’ or ‘stoned’ when it gets into your brain and nervous system.

How does yarndi affect our bodies?

Once THC is in your system, it changes how our brain sends messages around the body and affects how we think, feel and act.
