As attitudes about many things become more liberal, an important social concern has grown. These days, lots of people claim to use cannabis products, but how many can actually prove it?

Bragging about cannabis usage may be acceptable at a party or other social gathering. But if you are about to hire a creative writer, internet guru, or music composer, you want to be sure the candidates are well-versed in the best methods for obtaining inspiration for their crafts. Someone who isn't willing to "do what it takes" to bring you their A game probably has no business joining your team. And just taking his word that he's a true "head" is a gamble you cannot afford. Only drug testing will provide the proof you need.

Such proof once required an expensive procedure that was only available through hospitals, doctors' offices, and law enforcement facilities. Anyone who wanted to substantiate the use of cannabis would be charged hundreds of dollars for a test that required the analysis of a urine sample. The test looked for THC-COOH, the primary cannabis metabolite, which can be detected for several weeks after usage.

However, even costly lab tests were beset by problems, such as false positives that gave unearned credence to people who claimed to "get high" but who never actually smoked or ingested cannabis products.

Now it's possible to shop in private for a home drug use test that solves such problems. An online store carries the Quickscreen AtHome Test Kit that looks for the presence of the drug's byproducts in urine. The kit includes a collection cup, mailing box, and the cost of a mail-in laboratory test that is 99.9% accurate. A test strip for instant results is also included.

Is it possible to "beat the test"? Unless there has been at least some cannabis use recently, it would be very difficult to get a laboratory test result to show the presence of THC-COOH in urine. Barring a false positive, total abstainers cannot fake a positive result unless they are able to sneak some urine from someone who regularly smokes cannabis into the test.

However, an occasional user may be able to accentuate his cannabis usage by limiting his fluid intake. If you're looking for a regular user, you don't want to be fooled by a "lightweight" whose only exposure was to second-hand smoke.

Remember, concentrations of the THC-COOH metabolite are diluted by the normal intake of water and other liquids. Conversely, restricting the drinking of fluids will make even small amounts of the metabolite appear to indicate large-scale usage. Make sure the test taker is drinking fluids normally so the results will be accurate.

Finally, thanks to modern technology and the convenience of the internet, you don't need to visit expensive clinics and laboratories to get the proof of cannabis usage you need. Shop in private to get the Quickscreen AtHome Test Kit.
