Buddha Tahoe

Buddha Tahoe, also known as Tahoe OG Kush, is an indica-dominant strain that is a select phenotype of the original OG Kush. This strain was cultivated by breeder Big Buddha Seeds, who crossed OG Kush with SFV OG Kush to create a strain that carries forward the robust and pungent characteristics of its parent strains. Buddha Tahoe has a high THC content, averaging around 20%, but it can sometimes reach up to 25%. The strain is 90% indica and 10% sativa, making it a potent choice for cannabis enthusiasts.

Buddha Tahoe is known for its strong and fast-acting effects, which can be too intense for novice users or those with low tolerance. The high THC content of Buddha Tahoe may make it beneficial for those dealing with chronic pain, stress, insomnia, and lack of appetite. The strain is said to have a complex flavor profile, with notes of lemon, earthy pine, and a hint of pungent diesel.

Chronic Pain, Muscle Pain and Other Types of Pain

Cannabis contains compounds known as cannabinoids, with the most well-known being delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). These compounds interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in regulating pain. THC has analgesic properties that can help reduce pain, while CBD can help reduce inflammation, a common cause of many types of pain. Additionally, cannabis can help improve sleep, which can in turn help manage chronic pain conditions. Some studies have shown that medical cannabis can help replace or reduce the use of opioids for pain management.

Anxiety, Panic Disorders

Cannabis, specifically CBD (cannabidiol), has been shown to help with anxiety and panic disorders by interacting with the body’s endocannabinoid system. This system is involved in regulating a variety of functions including sleep, appetite, pain and immune system response. CBD may help to reduce stress and anxiety by enhancing the endocannabinoid signaling, which can help to regulate mood and fear. It can also interact with serotonin receptors in the brain, which play a key role in anxiety disorders. Some studies have shown that CBD can reduce symptoms in people with various anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and panic disorder. However, more research is needed to fully understand the potential benefits and risks.

Always remember that the effects of cannabis can vary greatly depending on the individual, so it’s important to listen to your body and adjust your dosage accordingly.
