Changing the Way We Use Cannabis

September 7, 2021

Cannabis Oils, Edibles, & Beverages

There’s a lot more to using cannabis than just smoking or vaping dried cannabis flower.

In fact, we understand that a growing number of cannabis users prefer cannabis products that they can consume, rather than having to use weed vaporizers, rolling joints, or smoking bowls.

On the Cannabis Side believes that cannabis should be for everyone, which is why we’ve made it a priority to ensure that we offer cannabis wellness products for users that are just dipping their toes into the cannabis market.

Types of Consumable Cannabis

There are many different forms of cannabis you can enjoy, but if you’re looking to consume cannabis rather than inhale it, you can choose from cannabis oils, edibles and beverages to enjoy.

Let’s discuss a bit about each of these types of cannabis products, so that you can start to decide which form might be the best fit for your preferences.

Just remember: anytime you’re consuming cannabis products, always read the label on the package before you begin. Taking the right dosage has a huge impact on how much you’ll enjoy your experience.
A good rule to follow is to always start with low dosages and give each dose time to take effect before taking more. You can always take more later. There’s no need to rush.

Cannabis Oils

Possibly the most approachable way to try cannabis’ euphoric effects (without really feeling like you’re eating or drinking anything), cannabis oils offer a portable, often flavorless way to enjoy cannabis.

If you’re only looking to benefit from cannabis’ medicinal qualities, you should consider trying some CBD oils [link out to the CBD main page of the online store]. CBD products contain virtually no THC (only enough to help activate CBD’s helpful properties), so you won’t experience any of the psychoactive effects that are typically associated with cannabis use.

CBD products offer tons of wonderful medicinal benefits [link out to the CBD blog through ‘medicinal benefits’], which you can take advantage of without affecting your cognitive state.

Edibles

If you’re looking for something with a little more flavour, which you can actually savor, edibles are a perfect choice for you. Not only are these treats tasty, but edibles often offer a longer lasting buzz than you would get from smoking or vaping cannabis flower.

Plus, because we only offer legal, highly regulated weed products and accessories, you can always be certain that the dosages listed on each edibles’ packaging will be accurate. This makes it easy to control how much you’re eating in each sitting, so that you don’t accidentally take too much and ruin your experience.

We’re committed to offering the best selection of edibles in the area that we’ve devoted an entire section of our store to delicious cannabis goodies. Chocolate bars, gummies, and even mouthwatering baked goods are waiting for you On the Cannabis Side

Cannabis Drinks

The newest addition to the legal forms of cannabis consumables are cannabis beverages. Just like edibles, they come in a wide assortment of styles and flavours. The types that you’ll like most, depends on your personal tastes.

There are even some new forms of cannabis instilled water, which have no flavour at all. Imagine cooling off after a hot day in the sun, with an ice-cold cannabis drink!

Of course, also like edibles, it’s good to follow the instructions for dosing on the labels. While dosage of cannabis drinks and edibles are generally kept low per unit (between 5-10mg of THC), you can still overindulge if you consume multiple cannabis beverages or edibles in the same sitting.

The Basics of CBD

November 18, 2021

On the Cannabis Side of Wellness When you’re taking a trip On the Cannabis Side, we want you to know that wellness is a huge part of our core beliefs as a cannabis retailer. Cannabis provides a lot more than just euphoric, psychoactive effects. It has a whole slew of medicinal benefits that it can offer; depending on what you need from cannabis. Most often, you’ll find CBD products offered as CBD oils, edibles, cannabis topicals, and even some CBD cannabis flower strains. But before we start talking about how you can benefit from CBD cannabis products, you need to know a bit more about the nature of CBD. What is CBD? Cannabidiol (CBD) is actually the most common cannabinoid found in cannabis flower. It’s known to be the active ingredient that has effects on both your mood and your body. However, CBD products that contain virtually no THC have no psychoactive effects on the user, meaning it doesn’t impair your ability to think or function. Some recent studies have shown that CBD may alter the effects of some chemicals in our bodies, such as serotonin, which helps control our mood and stress levels. It also affects adenosine and vanilloid levels, which impacts our sleep cycles and helps to reduce pain respectively. Unlike THC, CBD doesn’t bind to our CB1 receptors within our endocannabinoid system, and instead works to improve the products of our own endocannabinoids. This also inhibits the production of an enzyme in our bodies that regulates and destroys excess endocannabinoids. In turn, this affects our physical state.
