JADe (he, him)<p>"The <a href="https://mastodon.cr/tags/cannabis" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cannabis</span></a> plant contains hundreds of chemical compounds.

JADe (he, him)<p>"There may be instances where only a single cannabinoid (isolate - as in hemp extract) is needed, but in general, cannabinoids work best together and deliver the entourage effect.&nbsp;Pinene&nbsp;and CBD can mitigate some of THC’s adverse effects on short-term memory. A broad spectrum of cannabinoids is also ideal for treating cancer, as&nbsp;they work synergistically to boost their antitumor properties. Combining cannabinoids and terpenoids ( as in complete spectrum FLOWER) can also improve their usefulness as&nbsp;anti-inflammatories&nbsp;and&nbsp;painkillers."<br> <a href="https://leafwell.com/blog/entourage-effect" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">leafwell.com/blog/entourage-ef</span><span class="invisible">fect</span></a></p><p>Friends, lets take care of our bodies and minds too (not only our computers and software).
