Medical Applications

The Rainbow Chip strain offers relief for several conditions including ADD/ADHD, Depression, and Chronic Fatigue. Its balanced effects make it an aid for those struggling with these conditions.

Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)

THC and CBD have been shown to help manage ADHD symptoms in several ways.

First, it can help increase the availability of dopamine in the brain, which is typically low in individuals with ADHD. This can help improve focus and attention. Second, cannabis can help reduce hyperactivity and impulsivity, common symptoms of ADHD.

It can also help manage other associated symptoms like insomnia and anxiety.

Depression

Cannabis, specifically its components like CBD and THC, has been shown to help with depression by interacting with the endocannabinoid system in our bodies. This system is responsible for regulating various functions, including mood.

The cannabinoids in cannabis can help stabilize mood and ease depression by boosting the endocannabinoid system. Some research suggests that cannabis can increase serotonin levels, a neurotransmitter that plays a significant role in mood regulation.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS)

CBD and THC have been shown to help with chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) in several ways.

It can help improve sleep quality, which is often a major issue for CFS patients. Secondly, cannabis has anti-inflammatory properties that can help to reduce the inflammation often associated with CFS. It can also help reduce pain and improve mood, both of which can benefit those suffering from CFS.

Cannabis can help increase appetite, benefiting those with CFS who often struggle with loss of appetite or weight loss.

As with any cannabis strain, it’s recommended to start with a small dose, especially for beginners or those with a low tolerance. This could be one or two small puffs if smoked or vaped.
