What is Cannabis Oil?
Cannabis oil is a concentrated extract obtained by extraction of the dried flowers or leaves of the cannabis plant. It is not actually an oil, but derives its name from its sticky and oily appearance. The purpose of producing cannabis oil is to make cannabinoids and other beneficial components, such as terpenes, available in a highly concentrated form.
Cannabis oil has a wide variety of applications. It can be consumed orally, either by itself or mixed into food or drink. It can also be vaporized using a vape pen or e-cigarette, and some oils can be used in topical form, for example in massage oils or skin creams.
Cannabis oil is typically greenish-brown in color and has a thick, viscous consistency. It is made up of cannabinoids, terpenes and other compounds extracted from the cannabis plant, and may also containtrace amounts of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive compound that produces the “high” associated with marijuana use.
The Different Types of Cannabis Oils
Cannabis oil can be used in various ways and has different benefits depending on the type of oil you use. There are three main types of cannabis oils: CBD oil, THC oil, and Rick Simpson Oil. CBD oil is known for its medical benefits, THC oil is known for its recreational benefits, and Rick Simpson Oil is known for its potent healing properties.
Raw Cannabis Oil
Raw cannabis oil is perishable and should be stored in a dark, cool place like a refrigerator. There are two ways to use raw cannabis oil:
-Apply it directly: Raw cannabis oil can be applied directly to the skin for localized relief of pain and inflammation. It can also be used as a massage oil.
-Ingest it: Raw cannabis oil can be added to food or smoothies and eaten. Try starting with a small amount (1/2 teaspoon) to gauge how strongly it affects you.
Decarboxylated Cannabis Oil
There are many ways to use cannabis oil, but one of the most popular methods is decarboxylation. Decarbing your weed refers to the process of heating up your cannabis in order to “activate” it. This is an important step when cooking with cannabis as it maximizes both the psychoactive and medicinal effects of THC.
Decarbing can be done in a number of ways, but one of the simplest is to place your ground cannabis on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake it in an oven at 240 degrees Fahrenheit for about 30-40 minutes. Once your cannabis is decarbed, you can use it to make a variety of edibles, topicals, and even tinctures.
Cannabis oil that has been decarboxylated is often referred to as RSO, or Rick Simpson Oil. This type of oil is named after the man who popularized it, Rick Simpson. Simpson was a medical marijuana patient who used cannabis oil to successfully treat his cancer.
How to Make Cannabis Oil
Cannabis oil is a potent extract made from cannabis plants. It can be used to treat various medical conditions and provide relief from symptoms. Cannabis oil is also used recreationally for its psychoactive effects. In this article, we will show you how to make cannabis oil at home.
The Oil Extraction Process
The process of how to make cannabis oil is fairly simple. Essentially, you need to extract the THC-rich resin from the buds and leaves of the cannabis plant. Think of it like making olive oil, but with weed instead of olives. Of course, there are many ways to go about this, and some methods are better than others.
Cannabis oil can be extracted in several ways, but most people prefer to do it using a solvent likeButane or CO2. You can also use Olive Oil, but the process is much longer and not as effective.
Once you have your solvent, you need to put the cannabis in a glass container and pour the solvent over it. Then, seal the container and let it sit for 24 hours so that the THC has a chance to bind to the solvent.
After 24 hours, open the container and check to see if all of the weed has been covered in oil. If it has, congratulations! You’ve just made cannabis oil!
The Decarboxylation Process
Before we can get into the process of making cannabis oil, we need to understand what decarboxylation is and why it’s important. Decarboxylation is a chemical reaction that removes a carboxyl group from a molecule. In the context of cannabis, this reaction occurs when THC-A is heated and transforms into THC.
THC-A is the acidic precursor to THC, and it’s non-psychoactive. This means that if you were to consume cannabis without decarboxylating it first, you likely wouldn’t feel any effects. In order to experience the psychoactive effects of cannabis, the THC needs to be activated through heating.
The decarboxylation process can be accomplished in a few different ways, but the most common method is to bake your cannabis in an oven set to 220°F for about 30-40 minutes.
How to Smoke Cannabis Oil
Cannabis oil is a highly concentrated form of the plant Cannabis sativa. It is made by extracting the oil from the plant and then evaporating the solvent. The oil can be smoked in a pipe, vaporized, or mixed with food.
Smoking Raw Cannabis Oil
Cannabis oil can be used in a variety of ways, including smoking. However, it’s important to note that smoking raw cannabis oil is not the same as smoking marijuana. While marijuana contains THC, the psychoactive compound that gets users high, cannabis oil contains little to no THC. This means that users will not experience the same psychoactive effects when smoking cannabis oil as they would when smoking marijuana.
Smoking raw cannabis oil is a popular method of consuming the substance, as it allows users to inhale the oil directly into their lungs. This method of consumption also allows users to feel the effects of the oil almost immediately.
Smoking Decarboxylated Cannabis Oil
There are several ways to smoke decarboxylated cannabis oil. The most common is to smoke it by mixing it with tobacco. This method is commonly used by those who are trying to quit smoking cigarettes. It allows the user to control the amount of cannabis oil they smoke and eases the transition from smoking tobacco to smoking cannabis oil.
Cannabis oil can also be smoked in a pipe or bong. This method is similar to smoking cannabis flower, but the oil will need to be placed on top of a screen in order to prevent it from clogging the device. Cannabis oil can also be vaporized using a vape pen or e-cigarette. This is one of the healthiest ways to consume cannabis oil, as it eliminates the risks associated with smoking.
The Benefits of Smoking Cannabis Oil
There are many benefits to smoking cannabis oil, including the fact that it can help to alleviate pain, relax the mind, and improve sleep quality. Cannabis oil can also be used to treat anxiety, depression, and other mental health disorders. In addition, smoking cannabis oil can help to improve the symptoms of chronic illnesses like cancer and multiple sclerosis.
Pain Relief
Cannabis oil is effective in treating a wide variety of medical conditions, including:
-Chronic pain
-Inflammation
-Muscle spasms
-Anxiety
-Insomnia
-Depression
Cannabis oil is also effective in reducing the negative side effects of cancer treatment, such as:
-Nausea
-Vomiting
-Loss of appetite
-Pain
By smoking cannabis oil, patients can receive the benefits of medical marijuana without having to inhale smoke. This makes it an ideal treatment option for those with respiratory conditions or who are sensitive to smoke.
Anxiety Relief
Cannabis oil has been shown to be an effective treatment for anxiety relief. A study published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology found that participants who took a 600 mg dose of CBD experienced significantly less social anxiety than those who took a placebo. Another study found that CBD was able to reduce anxiety and improve sleep in children with post-traumatic stress disorder.
Appetite Stimulation
Cannabis oil has been shown to stimulate appetite, which is beneficial for people who are dealing with wasting syndrome or other conditions that cause them to lose their appetite. If you are looking for an easy way to consume cannabis oil, smoking it may be the best option for you.
Cancer Treatment
Cannabis oil has been shown to be effective in killing cancer cells in the laboratory. It has also been used successfully to treat cancer in animal studies.
There is a growing body of evidence that suggests that cannabis oil can be used to treat cancer in humans. Anecdotal reports from people who have used cannabis oil to treat their cancer are widely available. There is also a small but growing body of scientific evidence that supports these reports.
Cannabis oil is thought to kill cancer cells by causing them to apoptose (self-destruct). In addition, it is believed to inhibit the growth of new blood vessels that supply tumors with oxygen and nutrients, which is known as angiogenesis.
Cannabis oil is available in many forms. It can be consumed orally, applied topically or inhaled via a vaporizer. The best way to use cannabis oil depends on the individual and the severity of their condition.
People who are using cannabis oil to treat their cancer should work with a medical team that is experienced in administering this therapy. Cannabis oil is not currently approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of cancer, but clinical trials are ongoing.
Epilepsy Treatment
Cannabis oil has been used to treat epilepsy for centuries. Early doctors prescribed it to their patients to help control seizures. More recently, researchers have been looking into the possibility that cannabis oil can help treat not only epilepsy but also other seizure disorders like Dravet syndrome.
So far, the results have been promising. In one study, 47% of patients who used cannabis oil saw a 50% or greater reduction in seizures. In another study, 24% of patients saw a 90% or greater reduction in seizures. And in a third study, 3 out of 4 patients with Dravet syndrome saw their seizure frequency reduced by half or more.
There are a few different ways to use cannabis oil to treat epilepsy. One is to take it by mouth in the form of capsules or drops. Another is to apply it directly to the skin in the form of a cream, lotion, or ointment. And the third is to inhale it in the form of vaporized liquid or smoke.
Whichever method you choose, make sure you start with a low dose and increase gradually as needed until you find the dose that works best for you.
