Allow me to help you out with this and by reading this article you’ll have a better understanding about the truly effective cannabis medicine. And probably you might end up in applying your medical cannabis card for benefiting userful with the therapeutic effects of the drug. 

Cannabinoids And Their Role as a Medicine

Cannabinoid, the most powerful word found in the dictionary of every medical cannabis patient. THC and CBD the two main cannabinoids of the cannabis plant are the chemical compounds that are produced by cannabis flowers. These provide relief from a variety of symptoms that include nausea, inflammation, pain and anxiety. 

The mind altering ingredient, THC is the component that makes people feel “high”. Our body also naturally produces cannabinoid chemicals known as endocannabinoids that get imitated by the cannabis compounds. Endocannabinoids mediate transmission in between the cells of our body, thus maintaining our health and internal stability. Complications and unpleasant symptoms occur when there is some kind of problem or deficiency in our body’s endocannabinoid system. 

When we consume cannabis, cannabinoids bind with the receptors in our brain and body, which are CB1 and CB2 receptors respectively. Depending upon the binding with the receptors, different cannabinoids can have discrete outcomes. The receptors in the brain, CB1 binds with THC whereas the receptors in the body, CB2 has a strong affinity for CBN (cannabinol). One can get different types of ease and comfort by relying on the cannabinoid profile of the cannabis product. 

THC increases our appetite and reduces the effects of nausea. It also decreases inflammation, muscle control problems and pain. 

Unlike THC, a cannabinoid that doesn’t give the feeling of “high” is CBD. And because of its intoxicating properties, this compound is not that popular for recreational use. It is also useful for controlling epileptic seizures, reducing inflammation and pain and even curing mental addictions. Epidiolex, the CBD based liquid medicine is used for curing the two acute forms of childhood epilepsy, which are Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and Dravet syndrome. And this medication is also approved by the FDA.

There are no less than 85 types of cannabinoids present in the cannabis plant. And many out of these have documented medicinal value. In order to provide large doses of various cannabinoids, products and strains are flourished from the cannabis plant.
