“Should Kade or other medically fragile Minnesota children be denied an education because the safest medication for them comes from a plant? School nurses should want to give medication with the least amount of side effects and greatest efficacy, and for students like Kade, that lifesaving medication is hemp-derived CBD and/or medical cannabis.” We mentioned […]
Bloomberg Law reports that the President’s proposed budget may finally bring about long-awaited CBD regulations from the FDA: “Cannabis regulation is a new top-line priority for the FDA as Congress demands better research and the cannabis-derived supplement CBD grows in popularity, according to President Donald Trump’s budget proposal released Monday. “The administration’s budget request carves […]
Slate tipped us off to this hilarious bit done recently on Conan O’Brian’s show. Have YOU tried CBD?
Quite simply, there are no firm rules when it comes to how much CBD is right for you but instead comes down to a combination of your body’s individual metabolism and how much CBD it requires for you to obtain the desired effect or level of relief. Fortunately for us, CBD is very amendable to this sort of personal experimentation in that it passes easily through our system without causing harm.
Being relaxed is often an elusive state for many of us. We rush about from the moment we wake until we finally fall asleep, like a child’s toy top that has stopped spinning and lost all its momentum. When morning comes, the world winds us up again and we spin top-like through the day once again.
Over a decade ago, archeologists working in China’s Gobi Desert discovered a grouping of tombs– thousands of them– dating back more than 3000 years. Among the many incredible discoveries in these graves was one containing the remains of a 45-year-old male buried 2700 years ago with an impressively large cache of cannabis– nearly two pounds!
The phenomena of 420 is proof that small things can grow into mighty mythologies and become something more than what it was originally. April 20th is now recognized and celebrated nationwide, if not internationally, by cannabis consumers as well as canna-businesses.
This idea was first put forward by Dr. Richard Evans Schultes, who called the plant, “one of [humanity’s] oldest domesticates, dating back back nearly to the beginning of agriculture.”
These compounds are generally known as terpenes, and they are found throughout the plant kingdom.
In fact, one of these places where cannabinoids can be found is in a whole different form of life from humans and plants– a fungus, and in this case the black truffle.
THC is the primary psychoactive compound that the plant produces. It is not yet known how the cannabis plant managed to so perfectly mimic and exploit our internal chemistry. Some researchers refer to the synergy between humans and THC as a “happy accident” (with an emphasis on “happy”).
We never use synthetic alternatives like chemically-modified Delta-8-THC. Accept no substitutes for nature!
1300 years ago, the seafaring raiders, traders and explorers from Denmark, Norway and Sweden collectively known as Vikings began to sweep across Europe, the Mediterranean, North America and even the Middle East. This period of furious activity is known as “the Viking age”.
The earliest Egyptian references to the healing properties of the plant are found in the fragments of an almost 4000 year old scroll of medical instructions, known to scholars as the Papyrus Ramesseum III.
