For example, the stress that we feel when working with the approaching deadline can kick us into higher productivity, which is not so bad.

Prescription hemp tea

Preparing complete and psychoactive cannabis tea is a little more complicated, but its therapeutic effects are definitely worth it. For example, in Jamaica pregnant women prepare this traditional drink - it helps them in the morning sickness and occasional stress. A very good choice can be those for patients who suffer from respiratory illness and want to avoid classic smoking.

Forsome of the patients are more sympathetic to this method of application because cannabis tea gives them quite a different type of therapeutic experience compared to classic marijuana smoking. The difference in therapeutic experience is mainly due to the fact that cannabis in tea is absorbed into the body through the digestive tract, resulting in a very different effect.

the effect of tea comes according to ohl30-90 minutes after ingestion. However, the time of onset of action depends mainly on the persons metabolism and tolerance as well as on the potency of the variety used. The effect then also lasts much longer than when smoking - the typical effect time movesranges from 4 to 8 hours . The long-lasting effect is then particularly beneficial for those suffering from certain types of chronic pain that cannabis provides a much safer and healthier alternative to painkillers.

Methods of hemp tea preparation

Hemp tea can be prepared in many different ways, all of which depend primarily on personal preferences. Basic methods include the following:

  • Already changedThe simple, simple leaching of cannabis in hot water - does not give the full effect, since THC is not water soluble and has nothing to do.
  • A blend of tea leaves and butter or coconut oil with already bound hemp and water.
  • A blend of classic tea leaves and hot added water cannabis tincture

Therefore, the preparation of a really good hemp tea that provides a variety of healing, psychoactive or recreational effects is a little more sophisticated - once you understand the concept of decarboxylation, you can cook one tea after another.

Cannabis decarboxylation

During the decarboxylation process, the non-psychoactive component of cannabis THCA turns into THC- it activates its psychoactive and therapeutic properties. For example, decarboxylation occurs when smokingcannabis directly. We will describe the whole concept in the next article, here only briefly:

  • Set the oven to 115 ° C
  • Crush your chosen cannabis into smaller pieces
  • Spread cannabis on the baking container of your choice, which is "lined" with baking paper and sealed thoroughly - either with a lid or at least with aluminum foil
  • Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, if you have a transparent container, you can control the color of the hemp gradually - but do not open the container! The active substances are vaporized during the course of cannabis and we want to keep them
  • After 30 to 40 minutes, the hemp should be light brown - at that moment, take the container out of the oven and allow it to cool sufficiently - the container is still closed!
  • Decarboxylated hemp can be more thoroughly crushed and stored in an airtight container for later use

Note, however, that this manual does not always apply - the optimum time and temperature may vary according to the following parameters:

  • Product moisture
  • Product quantity
  • Oven type

Furthermore, everyone has different ideas about what the effect of his cannabis tea would be. The method you choose will depend mainly on the following:

  • The desired effect of tea (recreational, psychoactive or medical)
  • Potency and type by you selected varieties
  • Amount of cannabis used
