Do you use marijuana for medicinal purposes? You’re not alone! There are many medicinal uses for marijuana such as relieving nausea, reducing seizures, and stimulating the appetite.
Smoking isn’t the healthiest way to enjoy marijuana’s medicinal benefits, but there’s another way! Have you thought about taking edibles?
Here are some advantages to cannabis edibles.
1. Edibles Are Discreet and Easy
Most places you go are hostile to smokers. Whether it’s a restaurant, airplane, hotel, or movie theatre, you can’t easily smoke marijuana.
Marijuana edibles are easy to carry in your pocket or purse. No one has to know you’re taking one. Simply pull it out of your pocket and slip it into your mouth.
2. Edibles Are Healthier Than Inhaling Smoke
Although there are many benefits to marijuana, smoking isn’t the healthiest way of consuming cannabis. Eating marijuana doesn’t have the same harmful side effects that inhaling smoke does.
No matter what substance you’re inhaling, hot smoke has negative effects on your lungs and respiratory health. Many of the same toxic substances in cigarettes are also in marijuana smoke. So, while smoking marijuana has some benefits, edibles are healthier.
You can also get edibles that are THC-free, such as these CBD gummies 300mg. These won’t give you the high that comes with eating weed.
3. Consistent Dosing
Marijuana edibles offer consistent dosing. Each individual gummy or food item contains the exact amount of CBD or THC (or both) that’s listed on the package. Dispensaries get edibles from licensed producers so dosing is always precise.
If you want to make your own edibles at home, you can also pick up cannabis butter or oils. Those also give you precise dosing.
Smoking weed doesn’t offer the same consistency from smoke to smoke.
4. Potent, Long-Lasting Effects
Do you need long-lasting effects? Edibles are potent and the effects last longer than smoking weed. This is because the contents of the edible go through your digestive tract first.
If there’s THC in your edibles, you’ll experience a stronger and usually more sedating effect than with smoking marijuana. You can avoid the high by using CBD edibles that are THC-free.
5. Treat the Same Issues as Smoking Marijuana
Smoking marijuana helps with a number of different problematic health issues. Some of these include:
- Suppressed appetite due to AIDS
- Nausea from cancer treatments
- Anxiety and sleep problems
- Pain
- Seizures
- Glaucoma
- Muscle spasms and multiple sclerosis
Edibles treat the same issues. When eating marijuana, it takes longer to feel the effects than when smoking – up to 90 minutes. If you don’t feel the effects right away, wait for a while before eating more.
The Benefits of Taking Edibles
Taking edibles benefits many people in the treatment of different types of health issues. Edibles are easy, discreet, and offer precise dosing with no fear of causing respiratory or lung problems.
Are you suffering from nausea, pain, or chronic disease? Are you ready to try something new for symptom treatment? Consider trying cannabis edibles to see if they help.
