Medical Applications

Due to its effects, it could help manage and treat the following:

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

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 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.

Dosing

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. Wait for at least 15-30 minutes to assess the effects before deciding to consume more.
