“Lemon-Scented Marijuana Compound Reduces Weed’s ‘Paranoia’ Effect”

A recent study backs up the Cannabis Product Matrix I’ve been working on for over 2 years. Cannabis strains high in Limonene, e.g. RS11, Blue Dream, Runtz, Super Lemon Haze, etc are generally better for anxiety and calm.

Limonene is a terpene found in plants. As the name suggests, it’s found in plants and fruit such as lemons. Plants tend to produce them as a self-defence mechanism, since they deter bacteria and predators. Terpenes are very simple hydrocarbons that can bind to receptors in our body, either triggering or inhibiting the release of neurotransmitters such as GABA.

The report mentions that dosage is an important factor. This is notoriously hard to measure in Dry Flower, but is better controlled in forms such as oil & capsules.

The secrets of cannabis continue to be unlocked at a scientific level. Which is satisfying news for the 1.5m self-medicating patients in the UK alone who already discovered this for themselves at risk of arrest.
