Our ancestral genetics have encoded a receptor system that lives throughout our entire body, a system that specifically seeks to interact with the cannabinoids (like THC and CBD) – this is the endocannabinoid system. For a long time, it was commonly thought that whether the cannabis plant was a Sativa, Indica or Hybrid was what ultimately defined your cannabis experience. However, research has proved that these associations are not solidified. In combination, it is a strain’s THC, CBD and terpene profile that interact with each other to craft a unique experience.
Design your cannabis experience by understanding how THC, CBD and individual terpenes contribute to your high.
What gets you high
Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, commonly known as THC, is the main psychoactive component of cannabis that gets you high. Higher levels of THC usually create more intense experiences.
Associated with wellness
Cannabidiol, or CBD, is one of the main non-psychoactive compounds in cannabis. It can mitigate some of the psychoactive effects of THC and has gained popularity for its ability to effect the physiological balance in the body by interacting with the body’s receptors.
