Put yourself in the driver's seat-- your medication's effects!

Cannabis medication can be confusing and expensive. Our fun education calculators can help you to save time & money.... and get better effects!

We have long been denied the right to the safe, effective medication choices offered by cannabis (more
commonly known as marijuana). As a result, we must all reprogram our thinking while we learn how to use it- which is a personal process.

This means that what works for someone else may not work well for you.

Our genetics (among other factors) control how we respond to cannabis medication. This can cause more confusion as strains (or types) of cannabis can number in the hundreds! Rather than just getting a drug prescription as usual, we must be involved in choosing our medicine- to an extent never seen before!

hands holding cannabis — Take control of your cannabis medicine!

A lack of education causes many of us to demand only high-THC strains because that is what we are most familiar with.

This is not the best approach as it can cause the medicine to be less effective and cause unwanted side effects. Cannabis contains hundreds of ingredients with each “ingredient” giving different effects. So, how do we choose which ones are best for us?

Don't confuse a cannabis "high" with healing!

Studies show that the ingredients in cannabis medication can help with more than just pain. Some of the active ingredients found inside cannabis can also be found in other plant sources-- and have been used for centuries in traditional medicine practices. These active ingredients have shown in studies to potentially help many other health problems including blood sugar and appetite control, cancer, addiction, headaches, glaucoma, and more. **

It does this by working on one of our body systems called the endocannabinoid system (ECS). This body system is responsible for keeping us in balance (called homeostasis). Many patients find help with managing other long-term, poorly controlled health conditions-- without the side effects found in pharmaceutical drugs. Learning to choose cannabis and hemp strains that contain specific ingredients--- NOT just THC---is the key. There is more to cannabis medication than just a "high."

Currently, our only options are

spend hours doing research on which cannabis types or “strains” could possibly match our
health needs
Attend time-consuming classes
Use an expensive trial and error method
Be totally dependent on questionably educated others

If only there was a simple way to get this information without spending hours hunched over the computer or the “trial and error” approach that quickly drains your pocketbook……

ARE YOU READY TO LEARN HOW TO SAVE MONEY WHILE USING CANNABIS MEDICATION?

The Cannabis Calculator 2

The Cannabis Calculator 2 can help you learn ways to cut some of the cost and get the most out of your medication by using targeted vaping temperatures and finding other plant sources for some of the ingredients (called terpenes). Vape temperature control is the key to better effects with less waste.

Herbalists and traditional medicine healers have been using plants, herbs, and essential oils to treat disease for centuries. Combining scientific research with traditional medicine practices is known as phytotherapy. Adding some of these other plant sources into your health regimen can help you get the best health benefits from your natural medicine.

Side #1

Ways to stretch those medication dollars by using the correct vaping temperatures. Vaping dry herb cannabis allows for even more cost-savings! Check out our Education Station page for more information about this. A link to our FREE Patient Journal flipbook can also be found there!!

Side #2

How to get “missing” ingredients from other plant sources. Other plants have terpenes too! Adding these plants into your healing regimen can help you gain the health benefits as well. **As a bonus, we have listed cannabis strains known to genetically contain each specific ingredient.

Did you know that "hemp" or CBD flower is cannabis too? It is just marketed differently because of legal definitions. This means that hemp flower has the same ingredients inside that MMJ cannabis does (minus the high THC levels of course)-- and can help medicinally as well! Hemp strains contain similar mixes of other cannabinoids and terpenes. Our calculators can help you learn to use all types of cannabis medication. Check out our Education Station page to learn more!

To learn fun facts about your cannabis ingredients!

CBD

Studies have shown that CBD-infused dental products, such as toothpaste and mouthwash, are extremely effective. When used in combination with another cannabinoid called CBN, studies have shown that they can help a condition called bruxism, also known as teeth-grinding

Pinene

This cannabis terpene has been shown to be an effective lung bronchodilator for asthma symptom relief. Pinene also helps to counteract the memory loss associated with THC! People with anxiety can be sensitive to this terpene and may need to avoid high levels of it- use caution.

Caryophyllene

Recent studies have shown that this common terpene helped control diabetes in rats when used with the food supplement called L-arginine. Its powerful effects were shown to normalize blood sugar and glucose tolerance as well as repair damaged pancreatic cells! Caryophyllene is the only terpene found to act directly on our endocannabinoid system (ECS) receptors as well.

Ocimene

This terpene has been shown in studies to kill the virus that causes SARS. This virus is known as the SARS-CoV virus and is in the same family of coronaviruses as the COVID-19 virus causing the pandemic (aka SARS-CoV-2).

Guaiol

Also known as champacol, this terpene has used in the past to treat syphilis and regulate menstruation (periods). This terpene has a diuretic effect which could be helpful in controlling blood pressure.

CBN

This mildly psychoactive cannabinoid is formed from degraded THCA. Often known as the “sleepy cannabinoid,” it is commonly used as a sleep aid. Researchers found that 2.5-5mg of CBN was as effective as 5-10mg of the addictive sedative diazepam (more commonly known as Valium).

THCA

This cannabinoid ingredient is the acidic or “natural” form of THC found in the cannabis plant before it is broken down by time or heat. It is non-psychoactive, meaning it won’t get you “high,” but contains many great medicinal benefits. Although more research is needed, studies point to similar health benefits in seizures, inflammation, cancer, neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer’s, nausea , vomiting, and pain.

THC

This well-known cannabinoid ingredient is famous for its psychoactive, “high” effects. High levels of this cannabinoid have been found to help PTSD sufferers find relief, especially from nightmares, as it has been shown to reduce the “dreaming” stage of sleep.

CBDA

This cannabinoid ingredient is the acidic or “natural” form of CBD found in the cannabis plant before it is broken down by time or heat. Based on animal studies, CBDA may be more potent than CBD for certain medical conditions. These include nausea, stress-induced anxiety, pain , inflammation, and seizures. It is also more easily absorbed by mouth than CBD and doesn’t weaken the THC “high” like CBD is known to do.

CBG

Known as the “mother of all cannabinoids,” this cannabis ingredient is the parent of other cannabinoids. CBG has many medicinal benefits as well-- helping with glaucoma, cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, and more!

Limonene

This terpene, along with other ingredients such as humulene and THCV, has been found to have appetite-suppressing benefits for those seeking to avoid weight gain. Limonene has an energizing, stimulating, and alerting effect and can help counteract THC-induced paranoia and anxiety.
