Know Your Strains

Sativa

Sativa varieties, which are known to produce uplifting highs. These aren’t the strains that make you feel mellow; rather, Sativas are usually uplifting and stimulating. If you’ve ever gotten a high that’s sent you into uncontrollable laughing fits, that was probably from a Sativa; the same with those weird, freewheeling, in-depth-conversation highs. The effects of Sativa are at once uplifting and mind-altering, which makes them particularly popular among artists and creative types. This is also the category of MMJ that’s most frequently called upon for treating mental and behavioral problems, ranging from depression to stress to ADHD.

Treatment for Medical conditions including:  Addiction & Alcoholism, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Antibiotic Resistance, Arthritis, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Bipolar Disorder, Breathing Problems, Cancer, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Endocrine Disorders, Endometriosis, Epilepsy & Seizures, Fibromyalgia, Glaucoma

Indica

Indicas tend to have more of a relaxing feel on the body. If you’ve ever had a high that made you want to curl up on the couch for relaxation—or if you’ve ever effectively used marijuana to fall asleep at night—then it was likely Indica that you were dealing with. Indica has its own range of medical uses. It can be great for pain relief, as it has more of a narcotic, bodily effect than Sativa. It can help with sleeping disorders and with the relief of stress. It’s popular among patients who suffer from something like MS, fibromyalgia, lupus, or simple insomnia.

Medical treatments include: Sleep problems anxiety, digestive & bowel disorders, pain inflammation, heart disease, parkinson's disease, depression alzheimer's & dementia, diabetes.

Hybrid

A hybrid combines some of the characteristics of Sativas and Indicas, sometimes but not always in equal measure. You will find Sativa-dominant hybrids, which offer a cerebral high but can also have a calming effect on the body. An Indica-dominant hybrid is going to be geared toward full-body pain relief, but not without a bit of a cerebral high. There are also 50/50 hybrids, for patients who really want to experience the benefits of both varieties.

Medical treatments include : Nausea, Neurodegenerative Diseases, Pets, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Prion Disease, Schizophrenia

CBD

People primarily use CBD flower for stress, anxiety, depression, and similar conditions, but it’s also common to use hemp flower for pain and serious diseases. To combat workplace stress, people are even using CBD at work.

Medical treatments include, Headaches & Migraines, Immune Function, Kidney & Bladder Issues, Liver Disease, Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Psychosis, Seniors, Skin Conditions, Stress, Stroke & Brain Injuries, Wellness, ADD & ADHD
