Brands selling intoxicating hemp products such as Delta-8 THC are using memes, cartoons and pop-culture references to market on Instagram while rarely warning about health risks or age limits, according to a new study in the journal Addiction. Nearly half of posts included youth-oriented content. Recreational marketing was widespread. Safety information was rare. Appeals varied by product type. Use of intoxicating hemp products has grown in the United States in recent years, alongside reported poisonings, emergency department visits and psychotic episodes. The study authors note that largely underregulated social media marketing may be contributing to that growth. The findings come at a pivotal moment for federal policy.
