+### JSON Columns
+
+When using JSON columns in your database, the field won't be defined as a "relationship", 
+but rather a simple column with nested data. To get a nested object that's not a database relationship, 
+use the `non_relation_field` attribute in your Type:
+
+```php
+class UserType extends GraphQLType {
+
+    ...
+    
+    public function fields()
+    {
+        return [
+            
+            ...
+            
+            // JSON column containing all posts made by this user
+            'posts' => [
+                'type'          => Type::listOf(GraphQL::type('post')),
+                'description'   => 'A list of posts written by the user',
+                // Now this will simply request the "posts" column, and it won't 
+                // query for all the underlying columns in the "post" object
+                // The value defaults to true
+                'is_relation' => false
+            ]
