Hi everyone and thanks for stopping by to check out another rudimentary video by @ChiariLife420. This is the first try at editing and it’s insufferable. I truly messed up when it came to sizing this and piecing this thing together so please, try to exercise a bit of patience 😅! Trying to do this on a c we ll phone is a bit difficult, especially when everything is in hieroglyphics!!!
Today we’re covering Cannabis and it’s use as a form of treatment for chronic pain. We start out by pretty much defining the difference between acute and Chronic Pain. From there we move towards what traditional treatments have been used on Chronic Pain/Neuropathy. Which brings us to Cannabis. I talk about just two of the many Cannabinoids found within the Cannabis plant, CBD and THC, and how they interact with the Human Endocannabinoid System, CB1 receptors, and CB2 receptors to have the potential to help reduce Chronic Pain inflammation, alter how receptors respond to stimuli, help to relax the body and mind, and in some cases help to reduce the actual pain sensation.
Terpenes found in Cannabis have the ability to relieve stress, anxiety, and inflammation thereby having the potential to help relieve Chronic Pain. Just some of the many would be: Beta-Caryophyllene
Eucalyptol
Limonene
Linalool
Myrcene
Pinene
What’s the best way to consume Cannabis? Only you can decide what works best for you as we all have our own individual Endocannabinoid Systems, but…we cover smoking, vaping, edibles, even topicals. To avoid the euphoric effect look for cultivars(previously known as “strains”) high in CBD and low in THC such as ACDC, Cannatonic, and Harlequin. Combing all cannabinoids however(known as the Enterege Effect), according to research, can be more beneficial especially on the subjective outlook on the condition. We’re all different however and you may not like the euphoric all the time due to work or whatever. Each person’s Endocannabinoid System is unique to them. I can only tell you about me.
***NOTE***
Do not stop any current medications expecting Cannabis to take its place!!! NEVER STOP MEDICATIONS WITHOUT DISCUSSING WITH YOUR DOCTOR!!!
So now I wanna try so how do I buy? Gotta check in with NORML.com and check your state of residence to see exactly what the law is governing Cannabis. **I DO NOT ENCOURAGE THE BREAKING OF ANY LAWS**. If legal go check out a dispensary and speak with a knowledgeable bud tender about your condition with a brief description of your pain, they will help. If only Medically legal. Speak with your Dr about a prescription. If they don’t participate consider switching Dr’s but never gamble with your health. Once you’ve successfully received your precription, follow the appropriate steps in your state of residence to receive your MMJ or however the state recognizes your participation in the program. Once those steps are taken simply go to the Dispensary and speak to a knowledgeable bud tender.
