What is THCa?
THCA, or tetrahydrocannabinolic acid, is a non-psychoactive compound found in raw cannabis.
When exposed to heat or light, THCA converts into THC, the well-known psychoactive component of cannabis. This conversion process is known as decarboxylation and is essential for unlocking the intoxicating properties of THC.

What is CBD?
Cannabidiol (CBD) is a naturally occurring compound found in the resinous flower of cannabis, a plant with a rich history as a medicine going back thousands of years. Today the therapeutic properties of CBD are being tested and confirmed by scientists and doctors around the world.
A safe, non-addictive substance, CBD is one of more than a hundred “phytocannabinoids,” which are unique to cannabis and endow the plant with its robust therapeutic profile.
Many people are seeking alternatives to pharmaceuticals with harsh side effects — medicine more in sync with natural processes. By tapping into how we function biologically on a deep level, CBD can provide relief for chronic pain, anxiety, inflammation, depression, and many other conditions.

What is THCV?
Tetrahydrocannabivarin, or THCV, is a psychoactive cannabinoid found most prevalently in Sativa strains of cannabis. It produces a more motivated, alert, and energizing feeling of euphoria. For this reason, it is often recommended for daytime or any time when functionality is important.
THCV relieves stress and research shows it can help to reduce, or even prevent, anxiety and panic attacks. For this reason, it plays an important role in the treatment of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
It is also neuroprotective, so it is ideal for treating conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, and multiple sclerosis. Unlike THC, THCV works to suppress the appetite so it is not recommended for patients suffering from cachexia or anorexia nervosa.
