Learn which rare cannabinoid is best for weight loss, sleep, or pain

Why do you use cannabis? Some like an energetic high, while others prefer a dreamy, calming state of euphoria. Others take it for pain, nausea, or other medical needs. In addition to THC and CBD, hemp and cannabis contain dozens of other cannabinoids that can aid anything from appetite suppression and weight loss to fighting insomnia or inflammation. Here we explain the unique benefits of THCV, CBN, CBG, where to buy them and how to take them.

THCV for energy and weight loss

Unlike THC, THCV can increase energy and aid weight loss.

Cannabis and weight loss usually don’t roll off your tongue together. However, there is a compound in the plant that acts as a stimulant by increasing energy while decreasing hunger. This amazing cannabinoid is THCV (tetrahydrocannabivarin).

How does THCV work? Unlike THC, which turns on the CB1 receptor and causes the release of hunger hormones, THCV turns off the CB1 receptor and suppresses appetite.

This scientific study found that THCV works in a similar way to pharmaceutical anti-obesity drugs with a far lower risk of side effects. Research shows that THCV also alters brain connections to control food intake, shows promise in treating diabetes, and appears to reduce addictive behavior.

If THCV looks like a miracle weight loss drug, why isn’t it being sold everywhere? Until recently, it was extremely difficult to find. THCV existed primarily in African landrace sativas, which the locals used to increase stamina and satisfy hunger. However, these plants grew in war-torn mosquito-filled waterways along the Congo River. In fact, the famous strain hunter and breeder Francisco Loja lost his life in the search and died of malaria in 2017.

Fortunately, breeding and technology have advanced dramatically in the few years since his death. In the summer of 2020, the Rare Cannabinoid Company was the first to bring a purified THCV oil and a 1: 1 THCV: CBD blend (with full-spectrum CBD from high quality Hawaiian hemp) to the market. It is still the only brand that has highly potent THCV products for sale. Cannabis flower strains like Durban Poison, Doug’s Varin, and Pineapple Purps contain THCV, but in much lower amounts than the Rare Cannabinoid Company tinctures. Also, the THC in them will overwhelm the weight loss effects of the THCV. A recent study found that adding CBD to THCV can sometimes counteract the nibbling effects of THC.

For weight loss, we therefore recommend a pure THCV oil or, if you consume THC regularly, a THCV with CBD oil. For a happy, energetic high, you can also combine THCV with THC or Delta-8-THC. Buy THCV here.

CBN for sleep

Let yourself be carried away to the land of dreams with CBN.

If you’re having trouble falling asleep or struggling with insomnia, CBN (cannabinol) may be able to help. This rare cannabinoid is formed when THC is broken down due to age or heat. Its warm, cozy, and sleepy feeling was compared to diazepam (brand name Valium) by the Steep Hill cannabis testing laboratory. The company describes CBN on its website as “more calming than other known cannabinoids”.

Like THCV, CBN is intoxicating only in high concentrations. It can therefore provide a good night’s sleep without the drowsiness or hangover that pharmaceutical sedatives or even melatonin can cause in some cases.

The sleepy effects of CBN come from the way it binds to the CB1 receptor. CBD can also provide anti-anxiety properties, but in a different way, as CBD affects the serotonin, dopamine, and opioid receptors. Combining CBN with CBD could promote relaxation and sleep even more than just taking either one.

Other scientific research has shown that THC, Delta-8-THC, or specific terpenes (such as linalool, myrcene, and terpinolene) can increase the sedative effects of CBN.

As part of its pharmacy range, Rare Cannabinoid Company offers a 500 mg of purified CBN oil as well as a 1: 1 CBN: CBD blend with full spectrum CBD from Maui. You can find CBN oil for sale here.

CBG for pain and inflammation

CBG shows promise for pain, inflammation, brain and body health.

CBG (cannabigerol) is an important cannabinoid for anyone who uses cannabis for pain or other medical reasons. Scientists have found that CBG reduces inflammation and oxidative stress. This is extremely important as these two problems can lead to many of the most common diseases of our time, including cancer and neurodegenerative diseases.

Chronic inflammation can also cause great pain. Arthritis patients in particular have reported success using CBG oil and CBG: CBD blends directly on their skin or by ingestion.

Meanwhile, the cannabis information website Leafly recently published an article entitled “Is CBG Better Than CBD and THC for Pain, Inflammation and Aging?” Which looks closely at the unique benefits of this rare cannabinoid.

Despite the long history of cannabis illegality, there has been a surprising amount of research on CBG. If you’re curious if CBG has ever been studied for your particular problem, the National Center for Biotechnology Information and other respected research centers have published numerous studies on CBG and specific diseases. Topics include CBG and bladder dysfunction, breast cancer, colon cancer, gastrointestinal cancer, Huntington’s disease, inflammatory bowel disease (IBS), melanoma, multiple sclerosis (MS), neuroinflammation, Parkinson’s disease, as well as CBG’s potential antibacterial, antioxidant and analgesic ( analgesic) properties.

CBG can be taken alone with the 500 mg CBG oil tincture from Rare Cannabinoid Company, as a 1: 1 CBG: CBD full-spectrum blend, or in combination with your favorite full or broad-spectrum THC or CBD products. Check out the CBG oil for sale here.

You should always discuss any supplements you are considering with your doctor or specialist before taking them.

The new frontier of cannabis

THCV, CBN, and CBG are just three of the dozen of cannabinoids found in cannabis and other plants. More and more cannabinoids as well as terpenes are being researched and are constantly available to the public.

Rare Cannabinoid Company was a precursor to this new world of rare or smaller cannabinoids. Instead of sticking to full or broad spectrum CBD or THC products, the company’s founders (who already owned Hawaii’s most famous CBD brand, Hawaiian Choice) decided to head out in a new direction.

They realized that many people wanted to refine and customize their cannabinoid intake. The Hawaiian brand was designed as a modern take on a pharmacy where people can mix and match products according to their needs. For example, you could take THCV in the morning for energy and appetite control, a CBG: CBD blend for post-workout pain, and CBN with Delta-8-THC for a dreamy sleep.

Delta-8-THC, CBDA, CBC, CBDV and more!

Rare Cannabinoid Company offers a pharmacy of pure cannabinoids – CBC, CBG, CBN, THCV, Delta-8-THC, CBDA, 3000 mg CBD and Hawaiian full-spectrum CBD blends to mix and match to your own needs.

In addition to THCV, CBN and CBG, the Rare Cannabinoid Company sells Delta-8-THC, CBDA (supposedly good for nausea and inflammation), CBC (which boosts the brain’s chemical anandamide and can lift mood), Rare Hawaiian CBD (a premium Full spectrum CBD grown on the island of Maui), extra highly concentrated 3000 mg CBD and 1 to 1 mixtures of rare cannabinoids with CBD. The Hawaiian company will soon offer CBDV (which is being screened for Epilepsy, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), Rett Syndrome, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, and Nausea) and unique terpene blends to enhance the specific effects of the selected cannabinoids.
