'Scromiting,' a bizarre condition linked to chronic marijuana use, is on the rise

136. Durban Poison is named for the South African port city of Durban.

It is a pure sativa strain and not extraordinarily potent -- about 19% per Leafly. Noted for the terpenes terpinolene, myrcene, ocimene. There is no overt "poison" involved although toxicity can occur with large enough doses of ANYTHING -- salt, sugar, wheat, etc. As the saying goes "the dose makes the poison". Likely someone thought it was a badass name (like AK47, Death Star, Beast Mode and Cheetah Piss,), and it stuck. DP is a child strain of African, a generic sativa common to that continent.

Medical literature finds that 10 to 12 years of chronic use of cannabis in general can be the precursor for hyperemesis and one proposed mechanism is that cannabinoids build up in the fat cells of the human body and can be released during periods of fasting or stress. This fits with higher occurrence of nausea / stomach pain in the mornings, eg after not eating for 10 hours or more.

What source says that DP is "the only strain that causes it"?
