What Is Tetrahydrocannabinol?
(THC) naturally occurs in the brain.
youtube
Delta-9-Tetrahydrocannabinol: A Short Summary About THC.
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the primary psychoactive component of the cannabis plant. This cannabinoid was first isolated in 1964 by an Israeli Professor Dr. Raphael Mechoulam and Dr. Yechiel Gaoni. THC is currently a schedule I drug in the United States, meaning that it is deemed by the federal government to have no medicinal value whatsoever. One of the best ways to highlight this absurd notion is through the the double-standard of synthesizing of THC, a synthetic chemical that has been developed and legally sold in the United States under the name Marinol, which is available as a schedule III drug requiring a prescription.
THC is also a naturally occurring chemical with the human brain; this is where the psychoactive properties of THC come from. When you inhale or otherwise consume THC you flood your brain as well as the rest of your body with more THC than your body would naturally create on its own.
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) has a wide range of pain relief effects.
 THC has a wide range from mild to moderate analgesic or pain relieving effect, and has been used to treat pain by alerting the release of signals from various bodily components such as the spinal cord. There are often a number of other effects, including relaxation and a modification of the senses such as sight and auditory response, in addition to an increase in appetite.
It is well known that cannabis consumption increases appetite and food intake in humans, which is believed to be a result of THC effects on the CB1 receptors in the hypothalamus of the human brain. A study with mice suggests that cannabis stimulates taste as well as the pleasure experienced in the consumption of food. These studies are showing that increased pleasure may not be the only cause for an increase in appetite under the influence of THC.
Cancer patients benefit from the use of THC. 
Cancer patients often experience nausea from their chemotherapy as well as a loss in appetite. One of the hardest things cancer patients often deal with is a lack of nutrition as their appetite is either very low or nonexistent. Many of those suffering from cancer are finding marijuana and the THC within it to be a lifesaving appetite-stimulant which increases their appetite so they can eat, helping them take in the nutrition they desperately need. These same patients have also noticed a decrease in nausea, pain and other debilitating symptoms that other drugs have been unable to resolve without major addictions or side effects.
HIV/AIDS patients have also found relief from their conditions with THC, which reduces symptoms such as neuropathic pain induced by their therapy as well as an increase in weight gain. Because Marinol does not contain many of the other therapeutic components within real marijuana, like CBD, terpenoids, and flavonoids. AIDS/HIV sufferers who use this product may not achieve maximum benefit. Furthermore, some patients report that a single Marinol tablet frequently causes the patient to sleep or experience an all-day high that inhibits their cognitive ability throughout the day. Natural THC does not have the same effects, however, as the patient is able to carefully control their dose as well as take in the many other components of the natural drug.
Please share this with your friends.

Artificial Intelligence
It's been a week, again! Here's my first Ramble since starting the blog. It's a little off topic, but it should lead to some interesting writing in the future. I hope you enjoy!
I could see myself doing an insane deep dive into Artificial Intelligence: there’s no lack of writing on the topic, it’s constantly improving, and we’re gaining access to it casually more and more every day. But this is a cannabis blog, and this was meant to be a filler post this week, as I am (as is noted in the AI chat I’m linking below) in between anniversary bookends, with my own having been…

(9) Question
Cannabis is probably the least toxic therapeutically active substance known to man. Its Therapeutic Ratio (TR) is so high as to be virtually impossible to calculate but is believed to be between 1:20000 and 1:40000. Thus if 100mg of cannabis would produce an effect, between two to four kilos (taken at once) would be fatal. This amount is, of course, impossible to consume.
Therapeutic Ratio (TR) is the ratio of effective dose for 50% of users (ED50) to lethal dose for 50% of users (LD50). The TR of alcohol is 1:20. TR of heroin is 1:5.
Also, cannabis works on our body because it modulates the endocannabinoid system which consists of a network of CB1 and CB2 receptors throughout the body and endocannabinoids which are the body’s natural chemicals equivalent to the chemicals in the cannabis plant. The CB1 receptor is now believed to be the most prevalent receptor in the brain but does not exist in the brain stem which controls the cardiovascular and pulmonary systems. This is why, unlike opiates, alcohol or other drugs, cannabis cannot depress basic life functions to the point of death.
Many doctors are unaware of the endcocannabinoid system because it was only discovered in 1988 and so has only recently been documented in medical education. It is now believed to be the most important physiological system in our body, regulating the central nervous system, immune, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal and reproductive systems. This is why mankind has found cannabis such a safe and effective medicine for at least 5,000 years for such a wide variety of conditions.

Usage Procedures: THC is usually disposed of by smoking, vaping, or biting. Yet, THCA is frequently consumed through straightforward weed crushes, tones, or even cases in which individuals have been warmed.
Legitimate Status: In numerous areas, THC is totally coordinated because of its psychoactive and endless impacts. At the same time, THCA is non-psychoactive and constantly under less severe rules.

Hey y’all! Went for a run today. It was meh but what should I expect from the first run back. I’ll blame it on not being at sea level anymore. That’s not what I wanted to talk about though!
After smoking weed almost daily for 10 years, tonight marks 28 days of not smoking or ingesting THC. The significance of the number came from this video (https://youtu.be/7u_cm5b1s7Y). According to the video that’s when your “affected endocannabinoid system and CB1 receptors return to baseline.” I take that info with a grain of salt because we are not all built the same but it’s still nice to say I made it to that number, it’s the longest I’ve ever gone. I actually took a home-drug test at Day 14 (brand was Equate) and passed, which I was very surprised about and didn’t want to believe. I feel one reason people never touch the stuff is because you hear things like “it’s detectable for months!” However my lab tech girlfriend who deals with test very similar says it’s accurate and that the time it stays detectable is going to differ from person to person.
Anyway, if you’ve followed for a while you know that I’ve struggled in the past with taking breaks so of course I wanted to share this milestone. Definitely couldn’t do it without support. @emilweeb suggested supplements (specifically the Ashwagandha) and I heard the Magnesium Glycinate helps with sleep so I gave that a try as well. They definitely helped so much in the beginning. Recently I fell off with taking them daily but I’m gonna get back into it, especially since I do feel positive effects from them. Her advice behind the supplements was to replace bad habits with good habits. Also have to give credit to my girlfriend. She doesn’t smoke anymore but did just as much as me in the past/when we first met. Sometimes you need someone to tell you, “Don’t do that,” but in a loving, non-judgemental way.
I guess the question now is, “Am I done with weed forever?” The answer is no. I know I don’t want to be a daily user anymore, and I prefer not to get back into smoking, since no matter what you smoke, smoking is bad for your respiratory system, and that’s a fact. Not gonna lie though, I’m not saying I’ll never smoke again, just not going to make that my main method. I wanna ease back into it at my own pace. I have tinctures and edibles waiting for me when I decide to take that step, but even while writing this out I’m not in a rush to get high again, which is honestly, so weird to think.
I feel like there’s so much more I could add but this post is LONG. I’m always down to answers questions though if this post sparks any for anyone. I hope y’all are having a great day :)

CBG, CBD, CBC, CBN, and THCV
The Healing Cannabinoids
Tumblr media
If you read my piece on the entourage effect, you know that I believe that THC is the ringmaster, but all the components of cannabis determine the “personality” of any given strain. Studies have proven the Entourage Effect with cannabinoids and terpenes. But these five cannabinoids are the major components that combine with THC to most affect your high as far as we know, as well your health and wellbeing.
Some cannabinoids, especially CBN and CBG, can bind directly to both the endocannabinoid system’s (ECS) CB1 and CB2 receptors, meaning they affect everything the ECS controls. These elements are all-important to the way any given cannabis strain or concoction affects you.
There are over 100 cannabinoids. We have no idea what most of them do, but the ones I selected are considered the most important.
CBG (cannabigerol) is the “Mother Cannabinoid” —THC, CBD, CBC, and CBN (and all other cannabinoids) began as CBG.
CBG’s anti-stress, anti-anxiety, and antidepressant effects are fantastic, but that’s just the tip of the iceberg. There are numerous studies about CBG that indicate that it is as good as or better than CBD for pain, anxiety, inflammation, sleep disorders, etc. —all CBD’s effects but even better. It also provides better relief for sufferers of intestinal disorders, like IBS, GERD, and Crohn’s disease. We will have to wait and see everything CBG does, because the THC and CBD study focus has been taking the lion’s share of interest before now, but CBG is the rising superstar.
CBD (cannabidiol) is a cure-all kinda medicine that continues to show positive effects in more and more conditions all the time. I have a personal affinity for CBD + THC therapy, as it substantially healed two discs in my neck, and turned my degenerative disc disorder around. I still can have bouts of pain, but compared with living with hearing and feeling bone-on-bone grinding all day, every day? I’m in heaven. Another attribute of CBD, is that it’s a THC antagonist. That means it can inhibit and regulate the uptake of THC, and that has two great purposes. If you’re a beginner stoner. I always recommend everyone get a CBD vape whether you’re a beginner or an expert stoner. If you get too high, feel THC-induced anxiety, or panic, just a few puffs of CBD, and you’ll be relieved. But because CBD has all these great benefits of reducing tension, anxiety, and depression, one puff is just a great additive to any high. Antagonistic CBD also stretches THC’s effective period from 4 hours, to 6-8 hours during sleep.
CBC (cannabichromene) may be up to 10 times more potent than CBD for treating stress and anxiety and also has significant anti-inflammatory, pain-reducing, antiviral, anti-tumor, and bone-growth-stimulating properties. But the potential CBC has that excites me most, is that could be immensely useful in promoting the growth of new brain cells.
As an old fart with diminishing mental acuity, that’s obviously interesting to me.
CBN (cannabinol) is the first known cannabinoid, but one of the least-studied of these five, and is the only one that isn't derived directly from CBG, but it's what THC turns into when oxidized. Unlike CBG, CBD, and CBC, it’s mildly intoxicating. Like all these cannabinoids, it relieves pain and inflammation.
The best-known effect of CBN, is that it makes you sleepy. Anyone who’s ever smoked an old joint they found in a drawer might remember that it didn’t get them very high, but it made them ready for nappy time; that’s because much of the THC has degraded into CBN.
What excites me most about CBN, is that behaves like THC in many ways, and it has been found to bind with CB2 receptors. This ability may lead to new treatments for neuropathy (no treatment currently exists, and I suffer from neuropathic pain caused by sciatica), as CB2 receptors appear in inflamed areas in the body.
CBN therapies will be able to treat virtually any inflamed site, so it has the potential to address other areas that are difficult to treat, such as gastrointestinal system disorders like GERD, Chrons Disease, and diverticulitis.
CBN could be a true wonder drug.
THCV (tetrahydrocannabivarin) is another under-studied cannabinoid that’s attracting attention, for good reason.
THCV is a very effective appetite suppressant. It’s also the opposite of CBN, making people quite energetic. Being a bit tubby, I’m really excited by it. I’ve had a rare strain that contained THCV, and can attest to these properties.
But more excitement is to come from THCV, as it has shown to treat a lot of other diverse conditions, including Parkinson’s, psychosis, bacterial inflammation, acne, fatty liver disease, pain, and epilepsy.
I can’t wait to see what other benefits THCV has! Durban Poison is a common strain that contains high levels of THCV, but I’ve never had as good an effect from DP as I did the first (forgotten-named) high-THCV strain I tried.
Entourage Effect- all these cannabinoids work together in ways that increase their effectiveness when combined with THC, and can’t be recommended enough for ailments and moods your ECS controls. There aren’t any drawbacks, except you probably won’t want to ingest CBN until bedtime.
Any and all of these cannabinoids can be ingested individually a half hour before imbibing your favorite weed. THC don’t care where or how you get these into your system, but as always, these other cannabinoids work best with THC. There are vape pens with 50/50 CBD & CBG, but none that incorporate CBC or CBN that I’ve found, yet, but they gotta be out there.
I’m looking for a good supplier of isolates of these cannabinoids; pure, plant-derived organic powders. My intent is to mix them with honey and select terpenes to put into beverages. I’m going to make a daytime version with THCV, a nighttime version that includes CBN, and a neutral one with neither. When I find that supplier I’ll paste a link here, and I'll also let you know if my hypothesis that taking these cannabinoids orally, followed by consumption of THC products a short time later works effectively.
Remember: cannabinoids every day help keep the doctor away!

Understanding the Role of Endocannabinoids in Psoriasis Regulation
World Psoriasis Day October 29th
Tumblr media
Introduction
World Psoriasis Day is a global event that shines a light on psoriasis, a chronic autoimmune condition that causes red, scaly patches to appear on the skin. It's an opportunity to educate and raise awareness about this often misunderstood disease. In this article, we'll delve into how endocannabinoids can regulate psoriasis, providing a unique perspective on the disease's underlying mechanisms.
Understanding Endocannabinoids
Endocannabinoids are naturally occurring compounds within our bodies that interact with the endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is a complex cell-signalling system that plays a key role in regulating a range of functions and processes, including immune response, pain, mood, and more.
The two primary endocannabinoids are anandamide (AEA) and 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG). These molecules bind to CB1 and CB2 receptors found throughout the body, triggering various physiological responses. Interestingly, research has indicated that these endocannabinoids and their receptors may play a significant role in managing skin health and diseases such as psoriasis.
Tumblr media
Endocannabinoids and Skin Health
Our skin is not just a barrier protecting us from the outside world; it's also a complex organ with its own ECS. This system plays a crucial role in maintaining skin homeostasis – the balance of cell growth and death. In conditions like psoriasis, this balance is disrupted, leading to an overproduction of skin cells.
Research has shown that endocannabinoids can influence several key aspects of skin health. They can regulate skin cell proliferation and differentiation, immune response, and inflammation - all critical factors in psoriasis.
Endocannabinoids and Psoriasis Regulation
Psoriasis is characterised by an overactive immune response, leading to inflammation and rapid skin cell growth. The role of endocannabinoids in psoriasis regulation primarily revolves around their anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory properties.
Studies have shown that endocannabinoids can reduce inflammation by downregulating the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, proteins that promote inflammation. This could potentially help manage the chronic inflammation seen in psoriasis.
Moreover, endocannabinoids can also modulate the immune response. They can inhibit the overactive immune cells responsible for the rapid skin cell growth in psoriasis, helping to restore balance in the skin's ecosystem.
Research also suggests that people with psoriasis may have an impaired endocannabinoid system, with lower levels of endocannabinoids in their skin. This could potentially contribute to the disease's development and progression, highlighting the potential therapeutic value of targeting this system.
Conclusion
While the relationship between endocannabinoids and psoriasis is complex and still not fully understood, current research indicates a promising role for these molecules in regulating the disease. By modulating inflammation and immune response, endocannabinoids could potentially help manage psoriasis symptoms and improve skin health.
However, it's important to note that more research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms involved and how best to harness the power of endocannabinoids for psoriasis treatment. As we celebrate World Psoriasis Day, let's also celebrate the ongoing research and advancements that bring us closer to understanding and effectively managing this challenging condition.

The Uniqueness Of CBD
CBD is a phytocannabinoid that is a trapeno-phenolic molecule made of 21 carbon atoms, which is formed as a result of de-carboxylation (co² heating in the presence of oxygen) from the substance of origin –  cannabigerolic acid (CBDA) and is not linked to the receptors of the CB1 or CB2 system but acts through a large number of other mechanisms of action that are recently revealed in the scientific study.
Cannabidiol does not cause intoxicating effects (non-Intoxicating) and does not feel the feeling of elation (High) in its effect at all. On the contrary, cannabidiol has a calming general effect, which prevents anxiety and psychosis while simultaneously suppressing inflammation throughout the body and soothing pain, nausea and vomiting.

In this article, we will explore how BCP can be beneficial for your health, its mechanisms of action, and ways to incorporate it into your daily routine.
What is Beta-Caryophyllene?
Beta-caryophyllene (often abbreviated as BCP) is a sesquiterpene that acts as both a flavor and fragrance compound. It is primarily known for its spicy, woody, and peppery aroma, which is why it’s commonly found in essential oils and extracts. What makes BCP unique compared to other terpenes is its ability to interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system. Specifically, beta-caryophyllene binds to CB2 receptors, which are part of the immune system and are involved in managing inflammation and immune responses.
BCP is found in many everyday spices and herbs, including black pepper, oregano, basil, and cinnamon. Due to its therapeutic potential, it has become an important topic of research for supporting various aspects of health.
The Role of Beta-Caryophyllene in Reducing Inflammation
One of the most significant benefits of beta-caryophyllene is its potential to reduce inflammation. Chronic inflammation is linked to several health issues, such as arthritis, heart disease, and autoimmune disorders. By interacting with CB2 receptors, β-caryophyllene helps regulate the body’s inflammatory responses, providing a natural and non-intoxicating way to manage inflammation.
Studies have shown that beta-caryophyllene can be especially effective in managing inflammatory conditions, like osteoarthritis. BCP's anti-inflammatory properties may help reduce swelling, pain, and stiffness in the joints, making it a potential natural alternative to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
Pain Relief and Beta-Caryophyllene
Pain management is another area where beta-caryophyllene shows promising effects. Due to its ability to bind to CB2 receptors, it plays a role in modulating pain signals. By promoting a balanced immune response and reducing inflammation, beta-caryophyllene can help alleviate both acute and chronic pain.
Tumblr media
In particular, research has demonstrated that β-caryophyllene may be helpful for conditions like neuropathic pain, which is caused by damage to the nerves. Its non-intoxicating nature makes it a safe alternative to many traditional pain-relief medications, offering a natural option for those seeking holistic approaches to pain management.
Beta-Caryophyllene’s Effect on Mood and Anxiety
In addition to its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties, beta-caryophyllene may also support mental health. Some studies have suggested that BCP can have mood-stabilizing effects and may help reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. The terpene’s interaction with CB2 receptors may promote a sense of relaxation and well-being, making it beneficial for individuals dealing with stress or anxiety.
While more research is needed to fully understand BCP’s impact on mood regulation, its potential as a natural anxiolytic (anxiety-reducing) agent is an exciting area of study. Unlike THC, which binds to CB1 receptors and can have psychoactive effects, beta-caryophyllene does not cause a high, making it a safe choice for individuals looking to support their mental health without altering their consciousness.
How to Incorporate Beta-Caryophyllene Into Your Daily Routine
There are several ways to incorporate beta-caryophyllene into your daily life. The most common method is through the use of essential oils, which contain high concentrations of this beneficial terpene. By diffusing essential oils like black pepper or clove, you can enjoy the therapeutic benefits of β-caryophyllene throughout the day.
BCP is also present in a variety of culinary herbs and spices. Adding more black pepper, oregano, and basil to your meals can increase your intake of this compound while also enhancing the flavor of your dishes. For those seeking more direct supplementation, beta-caryophyllene is available in capsule or tincture form from various wellness brands.
The Future of Beta-Caryophyllene Research
While beta-caryophyllene has already shown great promise in various areas of health, more clinical trials and studies are necessary to confirm its full potential. As researchers continue to explore the many ways BCP interacts with the body’s systems, it’s likely that new therapeutic applications will emerge.
BCP’s ability to target CB2 receptors without affecting CB1 receptors (which are responsible for the psychoactive effects of cannabis) sets it apart from many other cannabinoids and terpenes. This makes it an exciting option for individuals who want the benefits of cannabis compounds without the high.

What is a Cannabinoid? Understanding Its Impact and Benefits on Health
Tumblr media
Cannabinoids are a group of chemical compounds that interact with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS is a complex cell-signaling system found in the brain and throughout the body, which plays a crucial role in regulating various physiological functions such as mood, appetite, sleep, and pain. The most well-known cannabinoids are tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), which are found in cannabis plants. Cannabinoids can be naturally occurring or synthetically created to mimic the effects of the naturally occurring compounds.
In this blog, we will explore various types of cannabinoids, including CBC, THC, CBD, and synthetic cannabinoids, and their effects on the body. We will also dive into some important health-related topics, such as cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, the role of cannabinoids in animals like cats, and what triggers cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome in humans. For those looking to make purchases related to cannabinoids, be sure to check out the fab cbd coupon code in the first section to save on your next purchase.
Understanding Cannabinoids and Their Types
What is a Cannabinoid?
Cannabinoids are diverse chemical compounds that exert their effects by binding to cannabinoid receptors found within the body’s endocannabinoid system. These compounds play an important role in maintaining homeostasis, which is the body's internal balance of various processes. Cannabinoids can either be produced naturally by the body (endocannabinoids) or obtained from external sources such as plants or synthetically made (phytocannabinoids and synthetic cannabinoids).
Types of Cannabinoids
THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol): This is the most well-known and psychoactive cannabinoid, responsible for the "high" associated with marijuana use. It can also have medicinal properties, helping to alleviate pain and nausea, among other things.
CBD (Cannabidiol): Unlike THC, CBD is non-psychoactive and has gained popularity for its potential therapeutic effects, such as reducing anxiety and alleviating chronic pain.
CBC (Cannabichromene): A lesser-known cannabinoid, CBC is thought to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects, making it a subject of interest in medical research.
How Cannabinoids Affect the Body
Cannabinoids work by interacting with the cannabinoid receptors found in the endocannabinoid system, primarily CB1 and CB2 receptors. The way they bind to these receptors helps regulate functions like mood, pain, appetite, and memory. This interaction is what makes cannabinoids such a powerful tool in medicine and wellness.
Pain Relief: Cannabinoids like THC and CBD can reduce chronic pain by interacting with the ECS.
Anti-Inflammatory: CBC is often studied for its potential in reducing inflammation, which is helpful for conditions like arthritis.
Anxiety Reduction: CBD is commonly used to help manage anxiety, as it has calming effects on the brain and body.
What is Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS)?
Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS) is a condition associated with prolonged and frequent use of cannabis. It causes severe nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain, and typically resolves when cannabis use is stopped. Although it may seem contradictory that a substance commonly used to alleviate nausea could cause it, CHS is becoming increasingly recognized by the medical community as a serious condition for chronic cannabis users.
Symptoms of Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome
Severe nausea and vomiting: This is the hallmark of CHS and can be extremely debilitating for sufferers.
Abdominal pain: Many individuals with CHS experience intense stomach discomfort.
Hot showers or baths: Interestingly, people with CHS often find relief from their symptoms by taking hot showers, a behavior that is commonly associated with the condition.
How Long Does It Take to Recover from Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome?
Recovery from CHS usually occurs after discontinuing cannabis use. However, the duration of recovery can vary from person to person. Typically, it may take several days to a week for symptoms to subside, but in severe cases, medical treatment may be required.
CBC Cannabinoid: Its Role in Health
Cannabichromene (CBC) is one of the lesser-known cannabinoids found in cannabis. Despite being overshadowed by THC and CBD, CBC has garnered significant interest for its potential health benefits.
Potential Benefits of CBC Cannabinoid
Anti-inflammatory properties: CBC has shown promise in reducing inflammation, which is beneficial for conditions like arthritis.
Pain relief: Similar to CBD, CBC may have analgesic properties, making it useful for managing chronic pain.
Promoting brain health: CBC may also have neuroprotective properties, potentially aiding in the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases.
Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome Trigger Foods
Certain foods may trigger or worsen the symptoms of Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome. While the exact cause of CHS is still not fully understood, it is believed that some foods exacerbate the condition, likely due to their impact on the digestive system.
Foods That May Trigger CHS Symptoms
Greasy or fatty foods: These foods are harder to digest and can exacerbate nausea and vomiting.
Spicy foods: Spices may irritate the stomach lining, leading to increased nausea and discomfort.
Caffeinated drinks: Caffeine can irritate the digestive system and worsen nausea.
To minimize symptoms, individuals with CHS are often advised to adopt a bland, easily digestible diet while recovering.
Do Cats Have Cannabinoid Receptors?
The answer is yes—cats, along with other mammals, do have cannabinoid receptors in their bodies. These receptors are part of the endocannabinoid system, which regulates several bodily functions. Research suggests that cannabinoids could potentially have therapeutic effects on animals, just as they do on humans.
What Does This Mean for Cats?
Pain relief: Cannabinoids may help manage chronic pain in cats, similar to how they are used for pain relief in humans.
Anxiety and stress relief: Just as CBD can help humans with anxiety, it may also be effective in reducing stress and anxiety in cats.
However, it's important to note that cannabis should never be given to cats without guidance from a veterinarian, as THC can be toxic to them.
Spice: Synthetic Cannabinoid Receptor Agonists
Spice, also known as synthetic cannabinoids, refers to a range of chemicals that are created in laboratories to mimic the effects of natural cannabinoids like THC. These synthetic compounds are often sprayed onto plant material and smoked, but they can have unpredictable and dangerous effects on the body.
Risks of Synthetic Cannabinoids (Spice)
Unpredictable effects: Unlike natural cannabinoids, synthetic cannabinoids can be much more potent, leading to severe side effects.
Health complications: These can include agitation, vomiting, hallucinations, seizures, and even death in extreme cases.
Legal and safety concerns: Spice is illegal in many places and is often sold as a "legal" alternative to cannabis.
Hyperemesis Cannabinoid Syndrome ICD-10
The ICD-10 is the International Classification of Diseases, which is used to categorize and identify health conditions. Cannabinoid Hyperemesis Syndrome (CHS) is recognized within this classification system, though it may not have a distinct code and is often classified under nausea and vomiting or substance-related disorders.
Why It’s Important to Recognize CHS in Medical Settings
Proper diagnosis: Recognizing CHS in the ICD-10 helps healthcare providers accurately diagnose and treat patients suffering from the condition.
Prevention of misdiagnosis: Given the similarity of CHS to other gastrointestinal issues, having it recognized in the ICD-10 helps avoid misdiagnosis.
Delta Cannabinoids: What Are They?
Delta cannabinoids, including delta-8-THC and delta-9-THC, are variations of THC that are gaining popularity due to their different psychoactive effects. Delta-9-THC is the most commonly known and widely used form of THC, but delta-8-THC is considered to be less potent, offering a milder experience for those looking for a less intense "high."
Differences Between Delta-8 and Delta-9 THC
Potency: Delta-9-THC is more potent and produces stronger psychoactive effects compared to delta-8-THC.
Legality: Delta-8-THC is often marketed as legal in some areas where delta-9-THC remains restricted.
Understanding these differences is crucial for individuals looking to explore cannabinoids in a safe and informed manner.
In conclusion, cannabinoids have a wide range of effects, from providing therapeutic benefits to causing adverse conditions like cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome. By understanding the science behind cannabinoids and their effects, you can make informed decisions about their use, whether it's for medical purposes or wellness.

Marijuana Users Have More Empathy And A Greater Understanding Of Other People's Emotions, Study Finds
Researchers said the results suggest a potential association between cannabis use and empathy, though they caution that further research is needed to fully understand the interactions “since many other factors may be at play.”
In attempting to explain the findings, the team of neuroscientists noted that a part of the brain, the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC), “is a region that is prone to the effects of cannabis consumption and is also greatly involved in empathy, which is a multi-component process that can be influenced in different ways.”
“Given that the ACC is one of the main areas that possess CB1 [cannabinoid] receptors and is heavily involved in the representation of the affective state of others,” the study says, “we believe that the differences shown by regular cannabis users in the emotional comprehension scores and their brain functional connectivity could be related to the use of cannabis.”
Despite the qualifiers, the study concludes, “Given previous studies of the effect of cannabis on mood and emotional detection, we believe that these results contribute to open a pathway to study further the clinical applications of the positive effect that cannabis or cannabis components could have in affect and social interactions.”
In other neuroscience research this year, researchers at the University of West Attica in Greece found that medical marijuana use was associated with improved quality of life — including better job performance, sleep, appetite, and energy — among people with neurological disorders.
Another recent study published by the American Medical Association found that medical marijuana was associated with “significant improvements” in quality of life for people with conditions like chronic pain and insomnia—and those effects were “largely sustained” over time.
Other studies have found cannabis may boost the “runner's high” felt during exercise and enhance the practice of yoga.

By understanding the underlying science, consumers can make informed decisions and enjoy these products responsibly.
1. What is Delta 9 THC?
Delta 9 THC, short for Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, is a naturally occurring cannabinoid found in cannabis plants. It is the primary psychoactive compound responsible for the "high" associated with marijuana. Unlike other cannabinoids such as CBD or Delta 8 THC, Delta 9 is known for its stronger psychoactive effects, making it a popular choice among users seeking relaxation, euphoria, or pain relief.
Delta 9 THC interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS), binding primarily to CB1 receptors in the brain and central nervous system. This interaction influences mood, perception, and various physiological processes. Although it’s federally regulated, Delta 9 products derived from hemp (containing less than 0.3% THC by dry weight) are legally sold in many states, paving the way for the rise of Delta 9 gummies.
2. The Chemistry of High-Potency Gummies
Creating high-potency Delta 9 gummies involves a precise and scientific process to ensure consistent dosage and effectiveness. The process begins with the extraction of Delta 9 THC from the cannabis plant. Advanced methods like CO2 extraction or ethanol distillation are often used to produce pure and potent THC concentrates.
Once extracted, the THC is infused into gummy formulations using emulsification techniques. Emulsifiers help distribute the THC evenly throughout the gummy, ensuring each piece contains a consistent amount. Additionally, stabilizers are added to preserve potency and prevent degradation during storage. This meticulous process is what sets high-potency Delta 9 gummies apart, offering users a reliable and predictable experience.
3. How Delta 9 THC Affects the Body
The effects of Delta 9 THC are largely due to its interaction with the endocannabinoid system. When consumed in gummy form, Delta 9 THC undergoes a unique metabolic process. After ingestion, it is absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract and metabolized in the liver into 11-hydroxy-THC, a compound that is even more potent than Delta 9 itself.
This metabolic transformation contributes to the intense and long-lasting effects of Delta 9 gummies compared to smoking or vaping. Users typically feel the effects within 30-90 minutes, with peak effects lasting for several hours. Factors like individual tolerance, body weight, and metabolism can influence how Delta 9 THC affects each person.

Therapeutic Potential: Many users turn to Delta 9 gummies for stress relief, improved sleep, pain management, and appetite stimulation.
These benefits, combined with their great taste and variety, have solidified Delta 9 gummies as a favorite among cannabis enthusiasts.
5. The Role of Ingredients in Maximizing Potency
The effectiveness of high-potency Delta 9 gummies is not solely dependent on THC content. The choice of ingredients plays a crucial role in maximizing potency and enhancing the overall experience.
Quality THC Extract: Using high-quality, lab-tested Delta 9 extract ensures purity and potency.
Complementary Ingredients: Some gummies include terpenes, which can amplify the effects of THC through the entourage effect. Natural flavorings and colors make the gummies more appealing without compromising quality.
Stabilizers and Preservatives: These ingredients prevent THC degradation, ensuring the gummies remain potent over time.
Choosing gummies with clean, high-quality ingredients ensures a safer and more enjoyable experience.
6. Potential Risks and Safety Considerations
While Delta 9 gummies offer numerous benefits, it’s important to be aware of potential risks:
Overconsumption: Gummies can take longer to produce effects, leading some users to consume more than necessary. This can result in discomfort, anxiety, or paranoia.
Legal Restrictions: Always check the legal status of Delta 9 products in your state to ensure compliance.
Individual Tolerance: Effects vary from person to person. Beginners should start with a low dose and gradually increase as needed.
Purchasing from reputable brands that provide third-party lab testing can help mitigate these risks. Always follow dosage guidelines and consume responsibly.
7. How to Choose High-Potency Delta 9 Gummies
With the growing popularity of Delta 9 gummies, the market is flooded with options. Here’s how to choose the best ones:

HHCPM: En Ny Dimension i Cannabisforskningen
Vad är HHCPM?
HHCPM (Hexahydrocannabinol-P-Methyl) är en ny och spännande cannabinoid som har fått uppmärksamhet inom cannabisforskningen. Den är en modifierad version av hexahydrocannabinol (HHC), en cannabinoid som liknar THC men med en något annorlunda kemisk struktur. HHCPM innehåller en metylgrupp (–CH3) som förändrar dess kemiska och farmakologiska egenskaper, vilket gör den till en intressant kandidat för framtida terapeutiska användningar och som en potentiell ingrediens i nya cannabisprodukter.
Trots att HHCPM fortfarande är ett relativt okänt ämne, är forskningen kring denna cannabinoid i full gång, och den kan komma att spela en betydande roll i framtida cannabisbehandlingar och produktutveckling. Denna artikel utforskar HHCPM, dess möjliga effekter, och dess framtida betydelse inom cannabisindustrin.
Tumblr media
Hur skiljer sig HHCPM från andra cannabinoider?
HHCPM är nära besläktad med andra cannabinoider som THC och HHC, men den innehåller en metylgrupp som gör den kemiskt unik. Denna modifiering innebär att HHCPM kan påverka kroppens endocannabinoidsystem på ett annat sätt än sina närmaste släktingar. Det är ännu oklart exakt hur HHCPM interagerar med CB1- och CB2-receptorerna i hjärnan och kroppen, men initiala resultat tyder på att den kan ha liknande men mer subtila effekter än THC.
En av de viktigaste skillnaderna mellan HHCPM och andra cannabinoider som THC är att HHCPM kanske inte ger lika starka psykoaktiva effekter, vilket gör att den potentiellt kan användas i medicinska behandlingar utan de intensiva "höga" som ofta förknippas med THC.
Medicinska Fördelar med HHCPM
Eftersom HHCPM är en relativt ny förening finns det inte mycket klinisk forskning som konkret bekräftar dess medicinska fördelar. Men genom att studera dess släktingar, såsom HHC och THC, kan vi förvänta oss att HHCPM kan ha några liknande terapeutiska egenskaper. Dessa inkluderar smärtlindring, antiinflammation och ångestdämpning. HHCPM:s potentiella förmåga att påverka receptorer i både hjärnan och immunsystemet gör den till en intressant kandidat för behandling av en rad olika tillstånd, inklusive kronisk smärta, ångest, depression och autoimmuna sjukdomar.
En annan potentiell fördel med HHCPM är att det, på grund av sin modifierade struktur, kan ha en längre verkan än traditionella cannabinoider som THC. Detta innebär att det kan ge långvarig symtomlindring utan att kräva frekvent dosering.
HHCPM i Cannabisindustrin
Cannabisindustrin är i ständig utveckling, och nya cannabinoider som HHCPM kan spela en avgörande roll i framtida produktutveckling. Om HHCPM visar sig vara säker och effektiv i kliniska prövningar, kan den komma att användas i en mängd olika produkter, inklusive medicinska oljor, tinkturer, kapslar och andra terapeutiska former. Det är också möjligt att HHCPM kan användas i rekreationella produkter, såsom vapes och ätbara produkter, för att erbjuda en annan upplevelse än traditionella THC-baserade produkter.
Företag inom cannabisindustrin är ständigt på jakt efter nya och innovativa produkter som kan tilltala både medicinska och rekreationella användare, och HHCPM har potentialen att bli en viktig ingrediens i framtida produktlinjer.
Risker och Biverkningar
Som med alla nya cannabinoider är det viktigt att förstå de potentiella riskerna och biverkningarna av HHCPM. Eftersom forskningen kring denna förening är i ett tidigt skede, finns det inte tillräcklig information om långsiktiga effekter och säkerhet. Det är möjligt att HHCPM kan orsaka biverkningar som liknar de som uppträder med andra cannabinoider, såsom muntorrhet, yrsel, förändringar i humör eller ökad hjärtfrekvens.
Därför är det avgörande att noggrant övervaka användningen av HHCPM och att forska vidare för att säkerställa att det är säkert och effektivt, särskilt när det gäller att utveckla medicinska produkter.
Framtidsperspektiv för HHCPM
HHCPM representerar en ny och potentiellt viktig del av cannabisvärlden, och med mer forskning och utveckling kan denna förening komma att spela en central roll i framtida behandlingar och produkter. Eftersom intresset för nya cannabinoider ökar, kommer HHCPM sannolikt att vara ett ämne för vidare studier och produktinnovation inom cannabisindustrin.
En av de största fördelarna med HHCPM är dess mångsidighet – om dess terapeutiska egenskaper bekräftas kan den användas för att behandla ett brett spektrum av hälsotillstånd, samtidigt som den erbjuder en alternativ upplevelse för dem som inte vill ha de psykoaktiva effekterna av THC.
Slutsats: HHCPM:s Framtida Potential
Även om forskning om HHCPM fortfarande är i ett tidigt stadium, visar de initiala resultaten att denna cannabinoid har stor potential för både medicinskt och rekreationellt bruk. Med fortsatt forskning och utveckling kan HHCPM komma att bli en viktig komponent i framtida cannabisprodukter, och den kan erbjuda nya behandlingar för patienter som söker alternativa lösningar. För både forskare och konsumenter är HHCPM definitivt ett ämne att hålla ett öga på när cannabisindustrin fortsätter att utvecklas.

The Endocannabinoid System (ECS)
If it wasn't for weed, it could've been decades later before researchers discovered the mammalian endocannabinoid system, but it turns out it is a very important system indeed. Yes, any mammal can get high, or get the same therapeutic treatments from cannabis. But animals need even lower doses than humans, and never give your dog or cat human preparations, unless they’re 10:1 or higher CBD:THC, in a weight-proportionate dose.
The ECS is the reason cannabis is nontoxic. Almost all drugs directly affect the nervous system, and enough of any normal drug-yes, theoretically even caffeine-can kill you, although you'd have to rapidly guzzle around 30 Red Bulls in a sitting to go redline.
But cannabis doesn't directly affect your nervous system at all; it affects the ECS, and the ECS gives instructions to your various systems. Even though not all effects of cannabis may be desired, our body will not kill itself, so no matter how much THC you ingest, you could only die by rupturing your stomach eating too many edibles. One ad hoc lab study went so far as to inject a rat with 30,000 doses of THC. The rat slept 12 hours and woke up apparently unaffected.
Tumblr media
Why humans need good weed
In healthy, active people who don't watch TV, or own a smartphone, live in the country and eat a healthy diet, the ECS helps achieve homeostasis: the balancing all the body’s systems.
But reaching homeostasis in the general population is rarer and rarer in modern life. For the last 20,000 years or more since humans started forming settlements, and for 19,900 years of that our lives were pretty dull, mixed with moments of sheer terror. We worked hard all day, and at night we talked, read, crafted, repaired, and created, until darkness and fatigue put us to bed. When we weren’t killing each other in wars, we were actually pretty chill for the most part.
Our days got longer with the advent and refinement of oil and gas lamps, and finally, electric lights, which made 24-hour business operations possible: this is also known as The Grand Fuckup.
Well, it oughta be called that anyhow, because that’s when we screwed ourselves and totally and permanently wrecked any semblance of human normalcy forever. It’s almost impossible for most of us to get off this crazy train with our sanity fully intact.
In the 1920s, radio became our first electromechanical stimulant. It wasn’t bad, really; people’s imaginations took off in the same way our ancestors fantasized through reading and storytelling. But by the late 1950s, television had pretty much replaced radio and reading as primary entertainment. Since it supplied images to go with it, the worlds we created in our imagination were greatly diminished, and weird brain stimulus became the norm.
In less than 100 years, about 1/5,000th of human civilization’s existence, we went from a healthy balance, to being stimulus junkies, thanks mostly to this heinous thing I'm usually typing this on, and you're usually reading from.
Such a sad story, isn't it? The true victim in this tragedy though, is the way it has affected our endocannabinoid system.
Warning: science-y gobbledygook (that is worth understanding better)
The ECS, being the regulator of our life’s balance, is so overwrought that our body is incapable of producing enough endocannabinoids to keep up with the demands of nearly continuous sensory stimulation.
Chronic endocannabinoid deficiency could possibly be the most widespread modern human disorder, and because of all the things the ECS is responsible for controlling, many symptomatic conditions we attribute to other conditions could be the result of these endocannabinoid deficiencies.
Tumblr media
Like your nervous system, your ECS is all over your body and in your brain. The system uses two primary receptors, CB1, and CB2 that researchers have found and studied so far. These receptors are normal and naturally activated by your body’s endocannabinoids like anandamide (the ‘bliss’ drug,) 2AG, GABA, and more.
I’m not a physician, so I’m not going to spend months researching endocannabinoids to find out how they technically all work; I try to just read about the scientific findings of effects of cannabis use.
THC is a phytocannabinoid, and has a chemical structure similar to anandamide, but it's much, much stronger. But because THC bonds to CB-1 and CB-2 receptors just as well as endocannabinoids, it can affect the same systems that your body’s stuff does. It also has the capability of doing things your body’s endocannabinoids can't, depending on the stuff that‘s mixed with the THC.
Millions of humans pop open a beer, pour a glass of wine, or mix a drink after a long and stressful day at work. What we're doing with cannabis, is substituting what we lack naturally, to deal with stress and over-stimulation, in a very pleasant way.
Today I had a pretty stressful day myself, but it has been dealt with more healthily as I typed this. I'm going to jump ahead to what I'm talking about next in this description, but I really want to contrast the cannabis difference.
I have a hard time sleeping through the night. I have a lot on my plate tomorrow, so I need a good night's rest. The couple of hours leading up to bedtime are when you can overdose without messing up your ECS, so I'm doing 3 different things that are going to help me fall asleep fast, and to sleep longer.
My ECS will be clean and ready to go when I wake up, if I need to treat for pain...or if it were a less-taxing day, a wake-n-bake. If I'm in pain, I will likely take just one hit of a stimulating strain that will energize my busy morning.
Cannabis isn't a one-note high, or a one-symptom curative. THC is the motor that drives the high, but WHAT KIND of high, or what kind of treatment, is about other things, the 450+ other active ingredients in cannabis that can produce millions of effects.
Tumblr media
Marinol is 100% pure synthetic THC. If THC were the only thing that made cannabis great, the black market would be packed with pure THC, but it's not. In fact, there is no THC black market at all; people hate pure THC; it makes you feel too high, very anxious and generally uncomfortable, according to clinical trials’ patient feedback. It did however have positive results for cancer patients’ appetite stimulation and some pain relief.
The ECS is manipulated by THC, and by other cannabinoids, like cannabinol (CBN), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabigerol (CBG), cannabichromene (CBC), and Δ9-tetrahydrocannabivarin (THCV).
The other thing that affects the way THC behaves, are terpenes. Terpenes are the smells and tastes of cannabis and other plants. The way THC, cannabinoids, and terpenes react with your ECS is called The Entourage Effect. This is the coolest thing about cannabis, and why it is both the ultimate drug and the ultimate medicine.
Then there's flavonoids. Even though the name makes you think they are about taste as well, they actually are the main color component in cannabis. They definitely affect your body, but hardly anything is known yet about the nature of their effects, or how they interact with other cannabis components.
All these unknowns are because almost every cannabis study ever performed through government funding was trying to prove potential harm. In a hilarious irony, that zealous attack resulted in revealing what a great drug it is.
Ten years after cannabis became a Schedule 1 drug, deeming it therapeutically useless, the United States Government filed for and was granted for using cannabis medicinally. The patent essentially states that cannabis can be used to treat issues related to oxidative stress, like stroke, autoimmune disorders, age-related issues, and more. They did this, but still maintained its Schedule 1 classification, and still does today.
Hypocrisy much?
Practical phytocannabinoid use
I have chronic pain, and have a hard time getting to sleep. I’m also a little tense too. Tonight I started with the sleep-inducing Bigelow Chamomile and Lavender tea. We all know that a cup of herbal tea helps us wind down, but what you probably didn't know, is the active ingredient in chamomile is the terpene, bisabolol, and the active ingredient in lavender (all purple flowers, actually) is the terpene, linalool. Bisabolol is a calmative and a mild anti-depressant, and linalool is a relaxant and a great anti-inflammatory that gives you a feeling of wellbeing.
After 30 minutes I brewed a second cup, and I took a big hit of Blueberry Muffin, which contains the terpenes b-myrcene, b-caryophyllene (for my inflammatory pain)...and because the buds are purple, Blueberry Muffin has linalool too.
The cool thing is, the THC uses the tea terpenes to further the deep relaxation I'm working towards; THC don't care where it's terpenes and phytocannabinoids come from!
Right now, I have a warm and fuzzy buzz, just perfect. I just took 2x 10Mg THC, 10Mg (”50/50”) CBD gummies (that will take effect after I’m asleep,) and I’ll be taking another hit soon to blissfully drift off to sleep. CBD can be somewhat of a sleep aid itself, but I'm using it primarily for its regulating effect on THC, slowing my body’s intake rate. Smoked or vaped, THC usually lasts about 4 hours in the system, but taking it with the 50/50 CBD/THC edible turns the dose into a bit of a time-release, stretching its therapeutic effects to maybe 6 hours or so, and sometimes as much as 8 hours.
The great unknown and the great promise of cannabis, is finding the way to get the right stuff at the right time, to get the high you hoped for, or the best treatment for what hurts you. The ECS doesn't like overdosing, and that's why I'm a microdosing evangical. Hopefully I can convince you as well.
There's a bunch more to learn about the ECS: we'll get to some of it topically. Until then, let's see how good at getting high we can get.
