Partaking of a piece of a nature, might just be the next step in your wellness journey. Here in the state of Utah there is a long list of qualifying medical conditions that qualify you to get your med card. In fact, Utah has one of the most extensive lists in the country, with over 20 conditions ranging from cancer to PTSD. This means that if you are suffering from any of these ailments, you may be able to find relief through medical cannabis.

One of the main reasons why so many people are turning to medical cannabis is its ability to alleviate pain and discomfort caused by various medical conditions. Studies have shown that cannabinoids, the chemical compounds found in cannabis, can reduce inflammation and relieve pain by interacting with receptors in our bodies.

With summer heat comes summer brain fog!
Have you heard of THCv?
This small double-blind study examined participant MRI images and self-reporting of symptoms to measure the effect of a 10mg daily dose of THCv. The comparison of images showed increased connectivity in the cognitive control network of our brain among the sample with the THC-V dose and seems to demonstrate the efficacy of THCv for increased executive functions, such as focusing attention, planning, or working memory (ie, maintaining your train of thought).

Day 10 of our 10 days of cannabinoids!

DAY 10: What does the future of cannabinoids look like?

We can optimistically expect more forward movement with the legalization of cannabis on a state by state basis. As the National Cannabis Industry Association (NCIA) states: "More states are likely to embrace broader cannabis legalization."

The U.S. cannabis market is also projected to grow significantly, with retail cannabis sales possibly reaching $53.5 billion by 2027.

DAY 9: Ongoing Research on Cannabinoids

The amount of research being done on cannabinoids isn't showing signs of slowing down anytime soon. Just to name a few:

In 2016, a rigorous clinical trial on THCV was conducted on participants with type-2 diabetes, specifically looking for improvements in biomarkers of sugar regulation among participants.

In 2019, the U.S. National Institutes of Health began funding research into the therapeutic potential of rare cannabinoids.

As recently as September of 2023, a study was done that showed pure CBN can significantly improve sleep outcomes in first-ever placebo-controlled trial for pure CBN.

DAY 8: Less Common Cannabinoids

THC and CBD are by far the most well known cannabinoids, but there are MANY more that have some fascinating properties!

CBN, CBC, CBG, and THCV, are considered “rare” cannabinoids since they tend to be less abundant in cannabis.

CBN has been called a "weaker version of THC," and has shown sedative properties that could relieve conditions like insomnia.

CBG is known for being packed with fatty acids, antioxidants, and nutrients.

CBC is being looked at for it's ability to potentially affect the brain and nerves which in turn could reduce pain and swelling.

THCV decreases appetite and up-regulates energy metabolism, which is beneficial for patients trying to lose weight or manage their type 2 diabetes.

DAY 7: The Discovery of Cannabinoids

Cannabis is one of the first plants to have been used as a medicine. However, it wasn't until much more recently that we discovered cannabis is the unique source of a set of compounds (well over 65 of them!) that we now know as cannabinoids. There were pharmacological experiments happening with one cannabinoid at a time back in the 1940s and 1950s. In the 1960's and 1970's there was suddenly a lot more research being done - partially because cannabis was becoming very popular recreationally in the UK around this time.

Finally in the mid-1980s, conclusive evidence that cannabinoid receptors do indeed exist as researchers thought came out of biochemical neuropharmacologist Allyn Howlett's laboratory at St. Louis University. There's been plenty of research done since then but that's the answer in a nutshell!

DAY 6: What is the "entourage effect?"

You may have heard the term "entourage effect" before in the medical cannabis industry. This refers to the synergistic interaction of various cannabinoids and terpenes and how they work together to enhance the overall therapeutic effects of cannabis. Teamwork makes the dreamwork!

*****na

Welcome back as we finish our 10 Days of Cannabinoids!

DAY 5: Cannabinoids and Inflammation

Cannabinoids, especially CBD, have been shown to demonstrate anti-inflammatory properties, potentially offering relief for conditions characterized by excessive inflammation, such as arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease. As another example, THC has been shown to reduce gastric inflammation caused by the commonly used NSAID diclofenac, which in turn may help diclofenac work more effectively in the body.

DAY 4: Is it true that there's an endocannabinoid known as the "bliss molecule" and if so, does it really make us happy?

Yes and no. Anandamide, often referred to as the "bliss molecule," is one of the primary endocannabinoids produced by the body. Its name is derived from the Sanskrit word 'ananda,' meaning joy or bliss. This well known endocannabinoid does play a key role in mood regulation, stress response, and emotional well-being, contributing to feelings of happiness and contentment - but no molecule alone can truly make you happy!

*****na

DAY 3: What does the endocannabinoid system actually do in the body?

The endocannabinoid system plays a crucial role in maintaining homeostasis, impacting processes such as pain sensation, mood, appetite, and memory - so needless to say, some pretty important things!

*****na

DAY 2: What’s the difference between THC & CBD?
Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) are by far the 2 most well known cannabinoids in cannabis. THC is known for its psychoactive effects, creating the euphoric "high," while CBD offers potential therapeutic benefits without the intoxicating properties, which some medical card patients love as they can find relief for their symptoms without impairment.

*****na

Welcome to our 10 Days of Cannabinoids! For the next 10 days, we'll be sharing some quick facts about cannabinoids to help continue our mission of educating our patients.

DAY 1: What are cannabinoids?
Let’s start with the basics - what are cannabinoids, anyway? Cannabinoids are the chemical compounds found in the cannabis plant. These compounds interact with the body's endocannabinoid system, influencing various physiological processes to promote overall well-being and homeostasis.

Did you know that CBD can help benefit your body? CBD, or cannabidiol, is a natural compound found in the cannabis plant that has been known to have therapeutic effects. It works by interacting with the body's endocannabinoid system, which helps regulate various processes such as pain, mood, and appetite.

Many people are turning to CBD as a natural alternative for managing chronic pain, anxiety, and other conditions. Unlike THC, another compound found in cannabis, CBD does not cause psychoactive effects and is safe for daily use.

Studies have shown that CBD can help reduce inflammation and may even have neuroprotective properties. This makes it a potential treatment option for conditions such as arthritis and Alzheimer's disease.
