JADe (he, him)<p>"The <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/cannabis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cannabis</span></a> plant contains hundreds of chemical compounds. Among them <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/Cannabinoids" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cannabinoids</span></a> , <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/flavonoids" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>flavonoids</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/terpenes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>terpenes</span></a> are the most relevant. Delta-nine <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/THC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>THC</span></a> and <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/CBD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CBD</span></a> are the most abundant cannabinoids and therefore the most studied.</p><p>However there are other minor cannabinoids such as delta-eight thc, <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/thca" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>thca</span></a> , thcv, cbg, <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/cbn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cbn</span></a> , cbc which have been investigated to have therapeutic value (Izzo et al. 2009).</p><p>Although the compounds may have therapeutic effects taken alone (as in HEMP-derived isolate), their combined action when present together in whole plants (actually complete flower) extracts, is GREATER than the sum of their individual effects (up to 6x more potent according to recent studies). This enhanced and synergistic response is known as the <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/entourageeffect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>entourageeffect</span></a> .</p><p>The combined action of cannabinoids and other molecules in the plant may present clinical advantages such as lower adverse effects and greater efficacy on the therapeutical management of several conditions, such as <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/anxiety" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>anxiety</span></a> , <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/depression" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>depression</span></a> , <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/pain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pain</span></a> , <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/inflammation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>inflammation</span></a> , <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/cancer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cancer</span></a> and bacterial / fungi <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/infectiousdiseases" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>infectiousdiseases</span></a> </p><p>If other forms of healing interest you, beyond masking symptoms with synthetic proprietary mono-molecules, check this link for a more up-to-date text on cannabis and the entourage effect: <br> <a href="https://leafwell.com/blog/entourage-effect" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">leafwell.com/blog/entourage-ef</span><span class="invisible">fect</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/healthcare" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>healthcare</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/medical" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>medical</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/healthscience" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>healthscience</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/marijuananews" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>marijuananews</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/marijuana" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>marijuana</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/weed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>weed</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/naturalist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>naturalist</span></a> <br><a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/cannabismedicinal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cannabismedicinal</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/herbalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>herbalism</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/solarpunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>solarpunk</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/chronicillness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>chronicillness</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/regenerativemedicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>regenerativemedicine</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/pain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pain</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/weed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>weed</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/autoinmunedisease" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>autoinmunedisease</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/medicalcrisis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>medicalcrisis</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/herbalmedicine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>herbalmedicine</span></a></p>
