World of Cannabinoids and Terpenes -Alpha-pinene

18/1/2021

Oh, the wonderful world of cannabis. Let us start with terpenes, which are aromatic compounds found in every plant, including cannabis. We know that the cannabinoids, terpenes, craft cultivars have effects and potential healing abilities. There are hundreds of different terpenes and cannabinoid combinations in the cannabis plant. While each has its own benefits, together, they have the ability to make up a potent combo. Terpenes and cannabinoids are the most important determinants of a cannabis plant’s potential. Not only its taste and smell but its medicinal properties as well. When they come together in the molecular synergistic effect, know as the entourage effect, finding the right cultivar could improve the quality of your life and state of being. I am in hopes this column can help you do just that. So let's geek out together.

Alpha-pinene, sometimes referred to just as pinene or written α-pinene, is a terpene with the aroma of a fresh, earthy scent reminiscent of an evergreen tree pine forest. Besides cannabis, Alpha-pinene can be found in olive, parsley, dill, basil, rosemary, bergamot, and some citrus varieties.
Alpha-pinene has a very unusual chemical structure. There are two identical versions, known as enantiomers. These are 3D mirror images of each other and identical. The two Alpha-pinene versions are known as (+) Alpha-pinene and (-) alpha-pinene, which you may have heard of when researching this particular terpene. Another member of the pinene family also exists, known as beta-pinene. It has a different structure but the same evergreen fresh pine scent. The distinction of Alpha -pinene vs. Beta -pinene really boils down to differences in sub-types of isomers. Which is very similar to the differences between THC and CBD.

Alpha-pinene potential properties or effects may include:
  • Encouraging relaxation
  • Decreasing stress and anxiety
  • Physical pain relief
  • Anti-Inflammatory
  • Bronchodilator (helps open airways)
  • May help combat short-term memory impairment
  • Anti-cancer properties
  • Increases alertness and counteracts some of the ill-effects of THC, such as anxiety​

You can find Alpha-pinene in cultivars such as:
  • Jack Herer
  • Pineapple Express
  • OG Kush
  • Vanilla Kush
  • Blue Dream
  • Big Smooth
  • Cannatonic
  • Cotton Candy Kush
  • God’s Gift
  • Grape Ape
  • Harlequin
  • Kosher Tangie
  • Remedy

Rick Simpson Oil Meds link
26/11/2022 12:12:46 pm

Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) is a full spectrum extract of cannabis oil. It is a highly concentrated cannabis oil that contains all compounds from the cannabis plant in the extraction. It is also commonly known as Rick Simpson Oil, named after Rick Simpson who developed the product that helped cure his skin cancer. RSO has been reported to be used to treat a variety of debilitating conditions such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s, arthritis, cancer and epilepsy. The idea of “whole plant medicine”- utilizing the full spectrum of therapeutic compounds, cannabinoids, and terpenes cannabis has to offer – is what makes RSO stand out from other oils. Whole plant extracts deliver the most powerful entourage effect. RSO is not for smoking, but can be used as a topical or ingested orally. It is dark in color and often administered via an oral syringe or used in capsules. Due to its tendency to be much stronger than other cannabis oils, it is usually taken in doses no larger than a grain of rice.

Our team is here to support you through your recovery process by providing the best quality Rick Simpson Oil available. We offer Rick’s original high THC formula, which is effective enough to combat stage I-IV (1-4) type cancers. Please be wary of hemp based CBD oil, re-branded as RSO. These are commonly found in health food stores, and have very little to no THC at all. To date, Rick Simpson Oil (RSO) is the only formula that has been scientifically proven to work.
