The Benefits of juicing raw cannabis
Tia Hofmann
Juicing raw cannabis can provide your body with essential nutrients and cannabinoids that benefit your health. When consumed, fresh cannabis juice poses many health benefits as other forms of cannabis consumption but does not have a psychoactive effect.
Juicing amplifies the potential benefits you can receive because it allows you to ingest a higher concentration of nutrients in a smaller dose.
What are the health benefits of raw juiced cannabis?
Clean, whole plant juicing of cannabis has been linked to various health benefits thanks to the nutrients and cannabinoids it possesses. Raw, unheated cannabis contains nutrients in green leafy vegetables and the cannabinoids THCA and CBDA.
The combination of THCA, CBDA, and nutrients found in uncured cannabis plants can aid with heart health, brain health, preventing and reducing inflammation, immune system functioning, and the encouragement of healthy cell functioning.
THCA contributes to anti-tumor and healthy cell regulation, inflammation relief, brain, and heart health, diminishing muscle spasms, nausea prevention, and proper immune system functioning.
CBDA works in the body to prevent nausea, provide pain relief, function as an anti-inflammatory, and facilitate healthy cell growth.
One condition that is believed to benefit from a high dose of cannabinoids seriously is Clinical Endocannabinoid Deficiency (CECD). CECD can contribute to several chronic conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome, migraines, endometriosis, fibromyalgia, and possibly more.
What nutrients are in Cannabis?
Technically, cannabis is part of the same plant family as leafy green vegetables. Much like spinach and broccoli, cannabis contains iron, fiber, fatty acids, enzymes, and essential vitamins and minerals, all of which are considered vital elements of a healthy diet.
Unlike vegetables, raw cannabis also contains advantages in the form of cannabinoids like THCA and CBDA, which give it a dramatic boost in potential benefits to your health.
What are CBDA and THCA?
THCA and CBDA are the raw counterparts to the more commonly known cannabinoids CBD and THC.
THCA exists in raw cannabis and does not transform into THC unless it is cooked or heated. Similarly, CBDA is the natural form of CBD and only converts to CBD when heated.
Dissimilar to THC, when you consume THCA, it does not cause a mind-altering, psychoactive effect. Nonetheless, it still poses benefits to your brain and body’s functionality. Neither CBDA nor CBD is psychoactive, and they perform in the same way inside your body’s systems.
Why Should you juice raw cannabis?
Like vegetables, when you apply heat to cannabis, it loses some of its nutrients. When you juice raw cannabis, it can retain a high concentration of its nutrients, so you can ensure you receive the maximum nutrient value.
In addition, due to the lack of psychoactive effects in raw cannabis, the body can tolerate juiced cannabis in significantly higher doses. This facilitates more potent amounts of the cannabinoids THCA and CBDA.
While the dose of THC a person can tolerate varies from one individual to the next, many people find the effects of consuming more than 10 to 25 mg of THC per dose to be too intense on a psychoactive level. However, when you drink raw cannabis juice, the body can reap the benefits of up to 500 or 600 mg of THCA and CBDA. This drastic increase in cannabinoids can make the effects more efficient and effective overall.
In conclusion juicing raw cannabis is an excellent source of medicine that anyone can add too their diet.
