Plants as we know, are the natural medicine of the earth. There is a growing popularity for the medicinal effects of marijuana, yet as I stated numerous times, not all food and medicine are created equal. Without getting into the importance of where it comes from. I want to discuss how it is consumed that determines its powerful benefits for healing.

Although many people smoke the herb, they are only getting the THC instead of the cellular healing benefits of CBD. Mainly due to the burning of the plant, as this becomes carcinogenic. The best way to reap the benefits of marijuana is to ingest with edible varieties. However you do not want to consume an edible made with processed sugar, gummies, etc.. Sugar causes inflammation. Edibles can be savory or sweetened with honey or maple syrup Or simply fresh herbs. You may have to make edibles at home if it’s legal in your state or find someone who can make them healthy for your system and not just recreational.

Here’s why:
The smoke of marijuana contains many of the same volatile and particulate components found in tobacco smoke, including a variety of chemicals (phenols, aldehydes, acrolein, etc) that are damaging to lung tissue, and carcinogens, including benzpyrene and benzanthracene.3, 4 The major exceptions are nicotine, found only in tobacco, and delta-9 tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the major psychoactive ingredient, and a number of THC-like compounds, namely cannabinoids, in marijuana.
