Purple Apricot

Purple Apricot, also known as Apricot Kush, is a potent indica-dominant hybrid strain that is a cross between Purple Punch and Legend Orange Apricot. Some enthusiasts argue that it is a blend of Apricot Kush and Purple Kush. Purple Apricot boasts a high THC content, averaging around 24%, and can even reach up to 26%. The strain is composed of 70% indica and 30% sativa.

Purple Apricot is known for its calming and uplifting effects, but beginners should proceed with caution due to its strong psychoactive properties. The high THC content in Purple Apricot may make it beneficial for those dealing with chronic pain, stress, depression, and loss of appetite. Purple Apricot is often described as having a sweet, apricot, citrus, earthy, and slightly spicy flavor profile.

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.
