Original Message What are High CBD Cannabis Strains?

CBD is the abbreviation for cannabidiol, the cannabinoid second only to THC when it comes to average volume. Recently, research has shown CBD to have analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-anxiety properties without the psychoactive effects (the "high" or "stoned" feeling) that THC provides. While high THC strains often tout levels of over 20%, generally, CBD levels of over 4% are considered to be high.


So, what are the Medical Properties of CBD?

CBD is:

Antiemetic (Reduces nausea and vomiting)

Anticonvulsant (Suppresses seizure activity)

Antipsychotic (Combats psychosis disorders)

Anti-inflammatory (Combats inflammatory disorders)

Anti-oxidant (Combats neurodegenerative disorders)

Anti-tumoral/Anti-cancer (Combats tumor and cancer cells)

Anxiolytic/Anti-depressant (Combats anxiety and depression disorders)


Plus... it isn't psychoactive! You can use it anytime! Smoke it, Juice it, Blend it... You decide.

Unlike THC, CBD does not cause a high. While this makes CBD a poor choice for recreational users, it gives the chemical a significant advantage as a medicine, since health professionals prefer treatments with minimal side effects.

CBD is non-psychoactive because it does not act on the same pathways as THC. These pathways, called CB1 receptors, are highly concentrated in the brain and are responsible for the mind-altering effects of THC.

A 2011 review published in Current Drug Safety concludes that CBD “does not interfere with several psychomotor and psychological functions.” The authors add that several studies suggest that CBD is “well tolerated and safe” even at high doses.


What are Some Cannabis Strains That Generally Have High CBD Levels?


Strains vary from grower to grower, crop to crop and even plant to plant, so keep in mind that the actual medication’s CBD levels may vary. However, here are some strains that have been actively bred in recent years to have higher CBD levels, so they might be a good place to start. We also recommend checking with dispensaries about the specifics of their strains’ CBD levels or see if they provide test results.


Some of them are:

Charlotte's Web
Harlequin
Sour Tsunami
Cannatonic
