Marijuana plants -The inequality of food

The use of marijuana is widely used by many for recreation or to helping minimize symptoms of disease. How we consume this powerful plant is where the confusion of its value comes into play. Most people burn the plant for smoking, which creates carbon that you ingest into the lungs and are only able to extract the mind numbing THC and miss out of the CBD healing values of the rest of the plant. This is logically not for medicinal purposes, but who’s judging? Next we have the edible variety. This is a very powerful and more healing method of usage after the bud is loosened, roasted and slow heated for an hr in butter or oil to release the chemicals in the plant, it is then used to create a batter or mixture for baking. Which type of plant is up to how you wish to feel. it is very hard to measure exact potency as well, so you will not want to eat the entire edible all at once. If you want to reduce inflammation, do not sweeten with sugar or make candy out of it. Sweeten with organic maple syrup or make something savory instead.

3 types are:

Indica: Indica creates a powerful “body” high. After consuming a strong indica strain, many consumers feel physically heavy, unwilling to move, and extremely relaxed. Indicas also tend to stimulate the appetite.

Uses: Muscle spasm, pain, anxiety, insomnia

Sativa: Sativa is known for its “head” high that is felt mostly in the brain. This makes sativa strains a bit more hallucinogenic than indica. It also means that while the brain may feel high, sativas do not cause the sluggish body high that sends indica consumers to the couch.

Uses: ADHD, appetite suppressant, depression

Hybrid: There is no one set of effects from hybrid cannabis. Because hybrid strains combine sativas and indicas, the results will depend on which strains were chosen to be bred together. Some hybrid strains can be extremely high in THC, while others may have lower percentages of THC and higher concentrations of CBD. Meanwhile, a varying range of terpenes help round out the effects of each individual strain.

Next is my favorite and most logical sub species of marijuana plant HEMP. Hemp has no psychoactive effects and has many sustainable uses from fibers and building materials, to alternative fuel sources. The most attractive usage is for human consumption. Hemp seeds can be used for a variety of food and health purposes. They can also be ground into flour and protein powder and mixed into soups. The oil pressed from the flowers can be used as a high-CBD supplement, while hemp seed oil is high in healthy fatty acids and can be used for cooking. Hemp leaves are a healthy addition to the diet.

Inequality: Since factory farms and big pharma own a large percentage of the seeds including marijuana, you are charting in unsafe territory. If you do not do extensive research on the source at which you consume marijuana, or any food for that matter, consuming marijuana can be very deadly. Food inequality is a real problem. Monsanto and Dupont control 38% of the seed market. No company should own nature and this is the very reason why commercial agriculture and industrial farming is sickening our society.

Conclusion: It’s best to avoid burning your food and herbs and use the consumption method, verses the smoking method, if you want to obtain the health benefits. It’s also vital to have the right information and curiosity to know where your food comes from.
