[amygdalae]

(worth mentioning iirc the distinction between types isnt actually as much of a thing as ppl say i just think its fun to make polls and categorize things)

#thought this wld b a fun poll idea. weedsters unite #i thought i was an indica person cuz sativas can make me anxious but #ive come to appreciate how (for me) sativas are good for dancing/chores/hiking/drawing #whereas indicas can turn me into a statue

THC Benefits By: Lavendersasquatch

THC Benefits

THC is not just for getting high anymore. More and more people are turning to products containing THC to help with a wide array of mental and physical ailments. We know CBD is good for pain but why is THC becoming more popular?

THC stands for tetrahydrocannabinol, the chemical compound found in marijuana that gives you that euphoric high. Our body has a natural endocannabinoid system and there are receptors in our brain that the THC attaches to and activates, causing those feelings of pleasure, joy and euphoria.

These feelings are what users are looking for when treating various issues, especially those treating mental health problems.

You can microdose to reap the benefits without getting high, or you can smoke a giant joint and enjoy the day pain free and in a jolly mood (that’s my favourite way).

6 THC Benefits

#1 Headache treatment

We’ve all been there. Your head is pounding, the dog is barking, the kids are screeching, and someone is mowing their lawn loudly outside. Or maybe you’re at work and you’re annoying co-worker Linda won’t shut up about her cats, and someone is typing EXTREMELY loud on their keyboard.

Instead of crawling into bed and popping tylenol, why not take a quick smoke break or pop an edible. Blue Dream and Jack Herer are known to help lessen the intensity of your headache, or even take it away!  SO put the tylenol down and try some weeds in place.

Other strains to try to help your headaches are:

Blue Dream

Northern Lights

Sour Diesel

THC Benefits #2 Treating Anxiety

The relationship between cannabis and anxiety is a rocky one but if you know what strain you’re smoking and what to avoid that will trigger your anxiety, cannabis can be a super beneficial tool to help manage anxiety symptoms. I personally am able to stay on a low dose anxiety medication thanks to cannabis.

The thing to look for when trying different strains is the effects. High THC strains that are indica dominant can be safe, whereas strains that are sativa can be risky as sativas are more of a head high.

A high CBD strain such as Charlotte’s Web is a good start. Another good strain is Girl Scout Cookies and Granddaddy Purple. Finding a strain that helps you mellow out is the best. I like being able to focus thanks to cannabis and not have my mind racing a mile a minute.

#3 Sleep disorders

Another THC benefit is that it’s the best for sleep problems! Whether it’s trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, THC can help depending on what course of action you take. Edibles are your best course of action because they last the longest in your system.

Edibles take about 30-90 minutes to kick in and can last up to 8 hours depending on dosage, your body and tolerance. This is optional for sleep. I personally should take this advice and get some indica edibles made to help me sleep at night better!  Some strains that are amazing for putting you to sleep are:

Death Bubba

El Jefe

Rockstar Kush

All these strains can be found on Weed-deals in the indica section! They’re well worth trying to help you fall asleep peacefully at night.

#4 Depression

Did you know 1 in 5 Canadians will experience a mental health problem or illness?  Depression can affect anyone, it doesn’t matter your age, relationship status, income or culture.

Another THC benefit is helping combat depression. It cannot cure it but it can be an aid in helping make your daily life a lot easier to manage. I have personally experienced depression and it’s hard to bring yourself out of a dark place. Cannabis is like a little ray of sunshine and can help you relax and cheer up.

When it comes to picking a strain to help, you need to look beyond the THC content and at the terpene profile. You can read about terpenes and their benefits in a previous blog “What Are Terpenes And Why Are They So Popular?” written by yours truly.

As I was saying, the terpenes limonene is great for uplifting your mood, and pinine is good for focus!

Strains high in these terpenese are:

Jack Herer

Pineapple Express

Gorilla Glue #4

All these strains can be found at Weed-deals.ca. You can mix and match to create your own ounce so you can find the best strain for you. This is such a cool thing because a lot of mail order sites don’t do this. Just another perk of ordering from Weed-deals.

THC Benefits #5 PMS

Periods are no joke, up to 80% of women experience some form of discomfort, pain, or annoying symptoms before they even begin to shed their uterine lining each month! Symptoms include but are not limited to back aches, mood swings, headaches, swelling, nausea, vomiting, bloating, fatigue, sadness, night sweats, tender breasts and cramps.

20-30% of these symptoms fall under PMS which stands for Premenstrual syndrome.

You don’t even need to smoke cannabis to reap the benefits of using weed to help your annoying aunt Flo. We have so many options this day and age. From concentrates, edibles, and of course flower.

Weed-deals has awesome strains for PMS, that i’ve personally used and love!

My top 3 are;

Purple OG Kush

Bruce Banner

Blue Dream

THC Benefits #6 Weight loss

Typically when you think of cannabis, you think of being lazy and the munchies. However, more and more people are turning to cannabis to give them that extra boost to get through their daily exercise regime!  Athletes microdose with cannabis to help them focus and relax their muscles before working out, this allows them to reap the benefits of cannabis, without the “high” feeling. Thus promoting a better work out and giving better training results.

There are also strains that will suppress your appetite, rather than make you want to reach for the fridge. Some strains that are good for this are:

Girl Scout Cookies

Green Crack

Durban Poison

Conclusion

THC is not just for getting high! It can help a wide array of issues and health disorders. From pain, to mental health, to becoming  a healthier version of you. THC is vast and an amazing cannabinoid you should add to your daily routine. Whether it’s microdosing throughout the day, or hitting the bong like Cheech and Chong all night, THC has got your back.
