Hello everyone! Today on Hemp for Humanity, we'll discuss different cannabinoids. We've talked a lot about the plant, about some of the legal aspects, about the differences between cannabis and hemp or marijuana, but now we're going to speak about the details inside the plant, about some of the other cannabinoids. CBD and THC are terms that everyone in this field has heard of. That is primarily what everyone is talking about. When you walk into the store, they usually ask about one of those two things, but the truth is that we work with so many other cannabinoids. There are so many different cannabinoids in the plant that we won't get into them all, but we will discuss three important ones that we work with and what their qualities are and what they do. So the first one is CBG, which stands for "cannabigerol," followed by CBN, which stands for "cannabinol," and then Bulk CBC Distillate, which is for "cannabachromine." So, first and foremost, let's discuss a little bit about CBC. What do you know, what are we using CBD for..., what do we recommend people use Bulk CBC Distillate for?
EFFECTS OF THE CBC
Thaddeus: Yeah, they think of CBC as the "antidepressive" cannabinoid (and when I say "they," I mean the folks that research it and stuff like that). It has some mood-boosting characteristics and shows promise in several research on depression and its effects on alleviating it (depression). Part of this is due to the idea that it is reducing inflammation in the brain, as CBC is also very anti-inflammatory. So, for example, some of the mixes that are aimed more towards pain treatment and such include a bit extra Bulk CBC Distillate. They are now primarily CBD with a little CBC thrown in for good measure. We have a couple 3Chi products labelled as "Happy," and we have that in a vape and a tincture, and what makes it a "happy" product is that it has higher CBC in it. That is Bulk CBC Distillate, as he mentioned earlier, and there is also CBN.
EFFECTS OF CBN
So CBN, I'm not sure if you caught this when we were talking about the complete names of the different cannabinoids, but CBN is cannabinol, and Wholesale CBN Isolate actually originates from THC when it ages. THC's full name is "tetrahydra cannabinol," therefore when CBN is produced, THC loses that "tetrahydra" and thus 90% of its psychoactivity. So CBN will have a slight effect on your body feel and headspace, but it will not have the same effect as THC. As I already stated, it loses 90% of that (psychoavtibity/"high"). Where Wholesale CBN Isolate really shines is in those who have severe anxiety, to the point of having chronic panic episodes or whatever, and also have trouble sleeping. So many of our sleep products contain CBD and CBN because they find it to be virtually sedative. It also has some muscle calming qualities. That is CBN.
Brent: We have a large selection of Wholesale CBN Isolate items. Gummies containing CBD and CBN are available. We have the 3Chi vape, which is the happy, I mean the sleep, we have a sleep tincture, and we have Wholesale CBN Isolate and Delta 8 goods combined. We have received a new CBN vape that we believe folks will enjoy. It is a Delta 8 CBN vaporizer. It's really peaceful and relaxing for intense anxiety or even rest, as you mentioned. So there are a plethora of CBN products and methods of administration.
Thaddeus: Quick side note: the flavour of the CBN vape that we received is "pink cookies," and it tastes extremely excellent. That is CBN. CBG is the final cannabinoid we'll discuss in terms of the other cannabinoids.
EFFECTS OF CBG
Thaddeus: This one intrigues me because of all the promise or prospective promise surrounding its neuro protecting abilities. So, in terms of attention, energy, and autoimmune properties/disorders, CBG is usually where we direct patients because it helps enormously with those. CBD can help with those as well, although we just have anecdotal evidence. There isn't a lot of "scientific" support for any of this, so I'd say it's more anecdotal. Which simply means that this is what I've learnt by talking to consumers and what they've told me about their specific conditions.
Brent: To summarise, for CBG, we have some doctors, and I won't disclose names or affiliations or anything like that, but we do have a couple local doctors that have written kind of "prescription," if you will, not on an actual script but on a card.
Brent: For patients from rheumatoid arthritis doctors, RA doctors. Thaddeus: Not a true prescription, but Brent: Fibro, Thaddeus. Fibromyalgia.
Brent: And that is incorporated into THC.
Thaddeus: Yeah, and it will be a separate film because we have "THC," "Delta 8 THC," "Delta 9 THC," and "Delta 10 THC." Then there's THC-O, which stands for "Delta 8 THC O Acetate," so things get a little complicated. Terpenes are another component of the plant that I'd like to briefly cover before moving on to other topics. So we're talking about cannabinoids, which are a big component of the plant and have their own set of effects. Terpenes are also present in the plant and contribute to the hemp and cannabis plant's unique and particular health qualities.
Thaddeus: Exactly sOTHER SUMMARY OF CANNABINOIDS
Brent: So, again, CBG, CBN, CBC are all obviously THC-free medications that are helpful for a variety of illnesses ranging from pain to RA, fibro, headaches to migraines, and so on. Then there's the full THC realm, which we'll get into next. So I know there's a lot of letters and so on and so forth, but that's obviously why we're at the store. Come in, call us, and we'll explain any of these cannabinoids to you. We'll share our products and just speak about how folks are using them.
RESOURCES FOR CANNABINOID RESEARCH
Thaddeus: Yeah, and I just wanted to like, I stated it before, but I just wanted to emphasise it. When I speak to you, this is primarily anecdotal. That's because I prefer that type of evidence because it's more practical and lifestyle-oriented. If you want to learn more about individual cannabinoids and the like, there are a few different resources you can use. 3CHi provides a lot of wonderful material on their website. Bona Voluntate, these are all fantastic sites to go to discover good hard studies that are more scientifically established if you are more interested in that kind of thing.
