Two quick notes. I don't believe the activity of yangonin at the CB1 receptor is known; it could be an agonist, it could be an antagonist. So we cannot assume that it affects us in a way similar to THC. Secondly, I'm not sure it is present in normal water extracts to any significant degree. See this study where quite high temperatures were required to efficienctly extract yangonin.

Infraredz tried to fix the part where it says "mimics THC" long ago, but it got edited back. If you check the sources of that article, you'll see it makes the leap from yangonin's CB1 affinity to agonism and THC similarity on its own.
