What’s Inside Medical Cannabis and How It Helps

How Medical Cannabis Functions?

The cannabis plant contains natural compounds that engage with the body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS), a system that naturally regulates functions like pain, sleep, mood, and appetite. The body utilizes its own natural messengers, known as endocannabinoids, to activate these processes. When you take medical cannabis, its active compounds act like natural body messengers, activating processes controlled by the body’s inherent endocannabinoid system.

Potential Benefits of Medical Cannabis

Medical cannabis is often used by patients dealing with symptoms of various conditions, such as: nausea and vomiting, spasticity, pain, seizure, sleep disorders, and anxiety.

What does Medical Cannabis Contain?

The key natural compounds in cannabis include cannabinoids, terpenes, and flavonoids.

CANNABINOIDS are the primary active compounds in medical cannabis. The cannabis plant contains various cannabinoids, with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) being the most prominent and well-known.

THC

It is responsible for the psychoactive effects. It affects the brain, altering mood and mental state. Cannabis products high in THC are often considered to be effective for pain relief, nausea and vomiting, appetite increase, and muscle spasms reduction.

CBD

It can boost the positive effects of the body's natural cannabinoids. It is known for its valuable benefits without the ‘high’. CBD-rich cannabis products are known to be effective in pain relief, inflammation, anxiety, and seizures.

Terpenes are responsible for the smell and flavor of cannabis, while flavonoids give it unique colors.

Other Cannabinoids: Besides THC and CBD, there are other minor cannabinoids such as CBG (cannabigerol), CBN (cannabinol), and CBC (cannabichromene) that may also have therapeutic benefits.
