cannabis basics
THC interacts with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS).
This system can potentially play a role in regulating stress recovery, protecting your nervous system, and activating your immune system response.
Your ECS is made up of two things:
- cannabinoid receptors in nearly every region of your central nervous system and brain, as well as many other areas of the body, including your immune system; and
- cannabinoids you naturally produce (called endocannabinoids).
Your natural endocannabinoids fit into your ECS receptors and help carry messages from cell to cell. THC works the same way, replacing your own endocannabinoids temporarily, but with different effects which may include:
- the release of dopamine resulting in feelings of relaxation
- a physical response such as an increase in hunger
- effects on various regions of the brain
The amount of THC in a cannabis product is known as THC Potency. THC content is expressed as a percentage of milligrams per gram of cannabis. It is important to know that 33% is the highest potency currently available, and it is impossible to have dried flower with 100% THC.
THC content is indicated on the packaging of every cannabis product sold on this website. Click here to shop now.
What things should I consider when choosing cannabis products based on THC Potency?
When choosing a product, it is important to consider not only the THC content, but also the method and amount of consumption. Other factors such as your age, your gender, your health history, and your previous experience with cannabis may also affect your body’s response to THC. Consult with your physician if you have any questions.
Consuming small amounts of THC may produce intended effects such as relaxation, heightened happiness, arousal and creativity, more sociability and energy, and an increased appetite. However, consuming large amounts of THC may produce overwhelming, unpleasant, or harmful effects.
Remember – It is always recommended to start low and go slow!
The human body has a vast network of receptors, called the Endocannabinoid System. The purpose of this system is to help our body stay balanced and in good overall health, even when external factors and certain lifestyle choices diminish our wellbeing.
CBD and other cannabinoids fit into the receptors of the Endocannabinoid System, helping the body complete its efforts to keep us in good health by supporting many of the body’s physical processes.
Full Spectrum vs Isolate
Hemp has a symphony of over 400 compounds like cannabidiol (CBD), secondary phytocannabinoids, as well as terpenoids, terpenes, and flavonoids. These compounds work synergistically to heighten the positive effects of cannabidiol. That’s why we believe so strongly in creating full-spectrum hemp extracts. With that in mind, we also understand that sometimes we just want a boost. Specifically, a boost of CBD. Listening to our consumers, we’ve added a CBD Isolate to our product line, so you can enhance a full-spectrum hemp supplement routine, whenever, however you need to.
Is CBD safe?
CBD is generally well tolerated and considered safe. As with any other supplement, there is a chance that it could cause adverse reactions for some people, and/ or could interact with certain medications. As with any dietary supplement, consult your physician before use if you are pregnant, nursing, have or suspect a medical condition or are taking any medications.
As you may have inferred by my pen name, I’m all about them terps!! But a lot of people don’t know what terpenes are and have no idea what the information on their packaging even means. As a result, people are not picking the best strains for their experience. What’s worse—as consumers ignore terpenes and focus solely on THC percentages, it encourages manufacturers to stop focusing on or even listing information about terpenes.
These organic compounds play such an important role in your cannabis experience. So, I’ve taken it upon myself to become a sort of terpene evangelical – to spread the good word of terps and their benefits so we can all better understand what we’re ingesting and really maximize our desired effects. Together, we can help shape the market, so manufacturers decide to focus more on flavor and effects than THC potency.
What Are Cannabis Terpenes?
Terpenes are naturally occurring compounds found in things like plants, fruits, and flowers. In cannabis, they are found in the trichomes of the female plant (trichomes are sticky, translucent glands found on the surface of buds, leaves, and stems that produce resin).
Basically, these little buddies are what give each cannabis strain its distinctive aroma, coloring, and flavor. They’re nature’s way of attracting pollinators and, I guess, aficionados. Anyways, these helpful friends don’t just make your weed smell and taste different—they’re actually a key factor in the effects that you experience when ingesting the plant.
