The cannabis for chronic pain . Extraction of oil (HBO)

Cannabis sativa is the hemp plant from which marijuana and cannabinoids (leaves, stems, seeds) are derived. The most potent form of this plant's extracts is hash oil, a liquid. The dried resins are referred to as ‘hashish.’ The dried flowering tops and leaves are smoked as a cigarette, known as a ‘joint’ or a ‘reefer.’ This plant has been used for several thousands of years both recreationally and medicinally. Cannabinoids are a structurally diverse family of compounds with a large number of biological targets. Based on their origins, cannabinoids can be classified into three groups: phytocannabinoids, endocannabinoids, and synthetic cannabinoids. Cannabinoids are aryl-substituted meroterpenes unique to the plant genus Cannabis. The pharmacology of most of the cannabinoids is largely unknown, but the most potent psychoactive agent, Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC, or THC) (CAS 8063-14-7), has been isolated, synthesized, and much studied. Δ9-THC and some synthetic analogs are used therapeutically. More than 400 active compounds have been isolated from the C. sativa plant. Sixty active compounds are unique to the plant and are collectively known as cannabinoids. Δ9-THC is the most psychoactive cannabinoid, producing euphoria, relaxation, intensification of ordinary sensory experiences, perceptual alterations, diminished pain

Low-Dose Vaporized Cannabis Significantly Improves Neuropathic Pain

We conducted a double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study evaluating the analgesic efficacy of vaporized cannabis in subjects, the majority of whom were experiencing neuropathic pain despite traditional treatment. Thirty-nine patients with central and peripheral neuropathic pain underwent a standardized procedure for inhaling medium-dose (3.53%), low-dose (1.29%), or placebo cannabis with the primary outcome being visual analog scale pain intensity.


Psychoactive side effects and neuropsychological performance were also evaluated. Mixed-effects regression models demonstrated an analgesic response to vaporized cannabis. There was no significant difference between the 2 active dose groups' results (P > .7).

Vaporizar el Cannabis mejora significativamente el dolor neuropático



Un estudio científico llevado a cabo, controlado con placebo, cruzado, para evaluar la eficacia analgésica del cannabis vaporizado en los sujetos, la mayoría de los cuales estaban experimentando dolor neuropático a pesar del tratamiento tradicional. 39 pacientes con dolor neuropático central y periférico se sometieron a un procedimiento estandarizado para la inhalación de una  dosis media (3,53%), en dosis bajas (1,29%), o cannabis placebo.

Mi niña bonita PURPLE

Puedo resumir mi experiencia con ella en "un amor a primera vista". No solo fue su color llamativo morado el que me atrajo sino sus características me cautivaron.
Tengo la suerte de vivir una década en la que la genética de la hierba ha sido tan mimada que puedo tener una hierba morada en mi mano, y con un sabor totalmente diferente a lo recordado en mis años.

Cogollo púrpura

Soy de esas personas que buscan probar las maravillas de la naturaleza, y la verdad que no cualquiera puede darle ese sabor a esta planta. 
Cultivar es como cocinar, lo hecho con amor sabe mucho mejor y se nota la buena mano que masajea la tierra, la riega e incluso le entabla conversación a la querida planta y sí repito conversación, porque es bien sabido y repetido en las clases de botánica que las plantas necesitan dióxido de carbono y eso es lo que exhalamos nosotros cuando hablamos...
Resumiendo, o tienes buena mano con las plantas o tienes la suerte de tener un colega que la tenga.

My pretty girl PURPLE


I can summarize my experience with her in "love at first sight". Not only was its striking purple that attracted me but its features captivated me.
I am fortunate to live a decade that the genetics of the herb has been so spoiled that I can have a purple grass in my hand, and with a totally different to what flavor remembered in my years.


Purple weed


I am one of those people who seek to prove the wonders of nature, and the truth that not everyone can give the taste of this plant.
Cultivate is like cooking, what's done with love tastes much better and good hand massages the earth note, waters and even he strikes up a conversation with the beloved plant and conversation repeat itself, it is well known and repeated in botany classes that plants need carbon dioxide and that's what we exhale when we speak ...
Summing up, or have a way with plants or lucky enough to have a colleague who does.
