5 original ways to consume cannabis

Cannabis users have never been more creative. Why roll a joint when, in countries where medical and/or recreational cannabis is legal, you can satisfy both your cravings and your natural needs? Hungry? Grab a cannabis-infused chocolate bar. Thirsty? A little ginger-canna drink. Prefer to vape? Grab your Storm. Do you prefer dyes (cannabis infused in alcohol)? Make a batch of Green Dragon. Cannabis-infused toothpicks, shampoos, ice cream, etc… But that’s not all!

Patches

For fans of precise titles, the Colorado brand Mary’s Medicinals sells 5-by-5-centimeter transdermal patches in six different varieties. These patches deliver a slow and steady release of long-term medical treatment. Patients simply need to apply the patch to a vein for it to take effect. It is a very healthy alternative to pharmaceutical options.

Dermatological creams

Developed by Oregon’s Peak Extracts, Rescue Rub is a cream designed to treat inflammation, pain, and skin problems. It was created by combining essential oils CO2-extracted with various Chinese herbs. Having trouble sleeping? Apply it to the base of your neck and welcome to the land of dreams.

Anal suppositories

Administering cannabis rectally allows for cannabinoids to travel directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the liver, and to receive 75 to 80% of the drug without cognitive impairment. In comparison, smoking or ingesting cannabis allows you to receive only 15 to 30% of effects.

Vaginal suppositories

Finally, there are natural ways to alleviate menstrual symptoms. Based in California, Foria produces vaginal suppositories made with organic cocoa butter and flavored with THC and CBD.

They are designed to relieve pelvic inflammation and pain by relaxing the muscles around the ovaries, cervix, and uterus without causing any psychoactive effects. The compounds found in cannabis activate key cannabinoid receptors in the pelvic region, which significantly reduces pain.

Sensual lubricants

Luminous Botanics, the first company in Oregon to offer a sensual cannabis oil, has discovered that the THC may enhance orgasms for men and women. Their Dew blend contains 25 mg of THC per milliliter, coconut and almond oil, and other essential oils. However, this product is not compatible with latex condoms.
