Understanding Cannabinoids

Cannabinoids are a diverse group of compounds found in the cannabis plant that are being researched for their potential therapeutic benefits. With over 100 known cannabinoids, each with its unique properties, the potential applications for these compounds are vast.

Cannabinoid chart

Here are some of the cannabinoids that you will find in our products:

  1. CBD (Cannabidiol): CBD is one of the most well-known cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. It is non-psychoactive and has been shown to have potential benefits in reducing anxiety, relieving pain, improving sleep, and potentially aiding in the treatment of some neurological disorders.

  2. CBDA (Cannabidiolic Acid): CBDA is the acidic precursor to CBD, and it has been found to have potential benefits in reducing inflammation, anxiety, and nausea.

  3. CBG (Cannabigerol): CBG is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid that has been found to potentially have anti-inflammatory properties, may help reduce intraocular pressure, and could be beneficial in the treatment of neurological disorders.

  4. CBGA (Cannabigerolic Acid): CBGA is the acidic precursor to CBG and is thought to have potential benefits in reducing inflammation, promoting bone growth, and aiding in the treatment of cancer.

  5. CBN (Cannabinol): CBN is a mildly psychoactive cannabinoid that is created as THC breaks down over time. It has been found to potentially have sedative effects, reduce intraocular pressure, and aid in the treatment of some forms of pain and inflammation.

  6. CBC (Cannabichromene): CBC is a non-psychoactive cannabinoid that has been found to potentially have anti-inflammatory properties, and may help in the treatment of some skin conditions.

  7. Delta 8 THC (Delta-8-tetrahydrocannabinol): Delta 8 THC is a psychoactive cannabinoid that is similar in structure to Delta 9 THC, but it is less potent. It has been found to potentially have antiemetic, anxiolytic, and analgesic properties.

  8. Delta 9 THC (Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol): Delta 9 THC is the most well-known psychoactive cannabinoid found in cannabis. It has been found to potentially have analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and neuroprotective properties.

  9. Delta 10 THC (Delta-10-tetrahydrocannabinol): Delta 10 THC is a rare cannabinoid that is structurally similar to Delta 9 THC, but it is less potent. It has been found to potentially have anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties.

  10. HHC (Hexahydrocannabinol): HHC is a relatively new cannabinoid that is being researched for its potential therapeutic benefits. It is similar in structure to Delta 9 THC, but it is less potent and has been found to potentially have anti-inflammatory properties.

The potential therapeutic benefits of cannabinoids are vast and varied, and ongoing research continues to uncover new applications and potential uses for these compounds. From CBD and CBG's potential anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties to the sedative effects of CBN and the neuroprotective properties of Delta 9 THC, the potential applications for these compounds are extensive. As research into cannabinoids continues, it is likely that even more potential uses will be discovered, further expanding the potential benefits of these fascinating compounds.
