CBD isolate works best for antipsychotic and anxiolitic therapies. All other conditions, including pain, spasm, nausea, diabetes, autoimmune conditions, even epilepsy and mood disorders require a little or quite a bit of THC or CBN ( oxidized THC).

Lets talk about dosage (less is more), delivery methods (to smoke or not), how to properly mix cannabinoids & terpenes for entourage effect in specific conditions ( pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/ ), dependency, proven risks, pharmacological interactions...

A farewell to Pepe Mujica, who recently passed away and really led by example ( ESPAÑOL MÁS ABAJO)

ENG: "He established an agenda of rights that marked his administration by fire; he promoted the 8-hour working day for rural workers when he was Minister of Livestock, and during his term of office, the day of the rural worker was declared, which is celebrated every 30 April; The law on the voluntary interruption of pregnancy (with the main rationale of accompanying women in their decision and not as a mere act of ending a life); the regulation of marijuana consumption, which put Uruguay in the international spotlight as a testing ground for the legalisation of all drugs in order to put an end to a war that only leaves deaths along the way."

ESP: "Consagró una agenda de derechos que marcaron a fuego su gestión; promovió las 8 horas para el trabajador rural siendo ministro de Ganadería, y durante su mandato se declaró el día del peón rural que se celebra cada 30 de abril; el matrimonio igualitario, la ley de interrupción voluntaria del embarazo (con la fundamentación principal de acompañar a las mujeres en la decisión y no como un mero acto de poner fin a una vida); la regulación del consumo de marihuana, con la que puso al Uruguay en la mira internacional como un campo de prueba hacia la legalización de todas las drogas para poner fin a una guerra que solo deja muertos por el camino."

No van a faltar los que entiendan el mensaje equivocado: “¿no le gusta abrazar a sus hijos?, deles marihuana”, o también, “¿sus niños están traumados por los cinturonazos?, vuélvalos marihuanos y se les quita el trauma”

NatureEndocannabinoid contributions to the perception of socially relevant, affective touch in humans - NeuropsychopharmacologySocial relationships are central to well-being. A subgroup of afferent nerve fibers, C-tactile (CT) afferents, are primed to respond to affective, socially relevant touch and may mitigate the effects of stress. The endocannabinoid ligand anandamide (AEA) modulates both social reward and stress. We thus hypothesized that AEA levels would be associated with the perceived pleasantness of affective touch in humans. Across two studies, we explored perceptions of affective, socially relevant touch and general affective stimuli. In study 1, adult participants (N = 101) were recruited based on presence (CM+) or absence (CM−) of documented childhood maltreatment (N = 52 CM+; N = 49 CM−). In study 2, healthy individuals were randomized to receive an inhibitor of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH; PF-04457845) to increase AEA levels (n = 16) or placebo (n = 29). Outcomes included self-report ratings of touch pleasantness and intensity, valence and arousal ratings of affective images, and plasma levels of endocannabinoids AEA and 2-AG, cortisol, and oxytocin. In study 1, higher AEA levels were associated with a reduced preference for affective, CT-optimal touch. In study 2, pharmacological elevation of AEA resulted in reduced preference for affective touch. These effects were specific to social processing, as AEA levels were not related to ratings of affective images. In contrast to our hypothesis, elevated AEA was associated with reduced pleasantness ratings of CT-optimal, affective touch. This provides novel, in-human data linking AEA to social processing, adding nuance to the rationale for its use as a potential novel therapeutic target in disordered in social processing.

ENG: "Over 70% Of Studies Back Medical Cannabis In Cancer Treatment, Meta-Analysis Finds." They searched 10.000 published papers. Keep that in mind, next time you read the old " more reasearch is needed".

Will gladly share a proven protocol in comments if requested. Nothing for sale. Strictly educational purposes to correct such rampant intentional misinformation.

ESP: "Meta análisis de 10.000 estudios científicos publicados reveló una tendencia significativa ( 71.4%) que apoya el potencial terapéutico del cannabis, en particular para el manejo de los síntomas relacionados con el cáncer y efectos anticancerígenos directos."

Con gusto aclaro dudas sobre cómo usarlo para este fin. Solo pregunten en comentarios. No se vende nada, el fin es educativo para contrarrestar tanta desinformación intencional.

ENG: Observational study on medical #cannabis use for 300 people over 50 proves medical #weed effectiveness. Patients favor high CBD low THC oral dosing ( balanced 1:1), to reduce arthritic/chronic pain and help sleep without having to chain smoke/vape. If CBD dominantes there is almost no psychotropic effect.

ESP: Ciencia moderna confirma que #marijuana medicinal alivia dolor crónico, artrítis y sueño. Estudio con 300 personas de más de 50 años revela que pacientes prefieren gotas o comestibles altos en CBD y bajos en THC. Extracto 1:1 de flor resulta aún más efectivo y evita tener que fumar/vapear para sostener efectos analgésicos/ansiolíticos. De dominar el CBD el efecto psicotropico es nulo o mínimo.

@Likewise Great advice ! I am down that road too: low carb chocoholic (now moving on to cocoa nibs) with 6 hours of feed window 5 days a week.

I am 58 years old and insulin resistant. The above nutritional changes plus 40 min of strenght/cardio training every other day, have given me a new lease on life.

My own two bits: walnuts, pecanas, macadamias and avocado provide a lot of healty fats and Omega3/6 balance. When taken at the end of the feeding window, they make the 18 hr fast a piece of... err meatpie 🙄 !

I also make my own cannabinoid extracts. Non psychotropic ones such as cannabinol CBN (main CB2 receptor agonist) and CBD from flower (no hemp) help regulate blood sugar, stabilize mood and protect my liver, spleen colon and pancreas.

Gladly surprised to find your testimony as health does not seem to be a priority for mastodon people...

Same. Like a lot of #ActuallyAutistic people, I don't sleep well, and #CBD shortly before bed helps. In fact, I started taking CBD soon after it became legal here, some years before I knew I was autistic.

I now use oil rather than capsules, because oil gives me finer control over the dose and it works out cheaper than other formats. You do have to be careful not to spill it on your top, though: it stains.

I've used #GinkgoBiloba for several decades. It sharpens both my reactions and my cognition.

I take #curcumin for other reasons, but I find it improves my working memory and my digestion as well. Simple turmeric is poorly absorbed and often contaminated with lead, so anyone wanting to experiment with it would be well advised to use a modern, safer, more bioavailable preparation.

US Border Patrol Called Raid 300 Miles From Border 'Targeted'.

Open Source Evidence Suggests Otherwise

« there was no prior knowledge of criminal or immigration history for 77 of the 78 people arrested.

Only one had been flagged for prior removal, suggesting that the rest had been captured after chance encounters or stops by border agents. »
