She explains how she has normalized cannabis around her son, her interactions with other parents, and other fascinating stories and facts. Thanks for listening- we appreciate your support! See you next Sunday! 5:18 Bianca mentions how she feels smoking CBD would help with the stress of early motherhood. According to various studies, smoking CBD can help with stress, inflammation, pain, cramps, nausea, and migraines, all of which are possible symptoms that arise from pregnancy and breastfeeding. 7:37 Bianca says she loves to blend THC and CBD flower. Here’s a helpful guide If you’re interested in learning more and/or trying it for yourself: https://greenunicornfarms.com/blog/cbd-thc-mixing-guide/ 12:35 Bianca mentions she believes smoking CBD is the most effective way to reap its benefits vs. ingesting it, and she’s right. Smoking more effectively delivers it to the body by increasing the bio-availability in the bloodstream and how quickly it’s absorbed. 12:51 Bianca states that your lungs are able to detox/cleanse themselves of a certain amount of smoke each day. While we couldn’t find an exact breakdown of that fact, we did find from the American Lung Association that the lungs are self-cleaning organs, meaning that once any pollutants or toxins aren’t being inhaled, the lungs begin to heal themselves right away. 14:47 Interested in silicone bongs? We recommend supporting your local smoke shop or finding a small business online! 15:15 Lindsey mentions Delta 8 flower, which is a psychoactive compound found from specific molecules in the cannabis plant, producing a slightly different high than classic THC.

Although, keep in mind- even if you have a very low body fat percentage, THC will still linger for a significant amount of time if you’re a frequent user. 8:34 Sabrina says she was using hemp wick to consume in order to avoid butane inhalation.

Get all the info on Leafly: https://www.leafly.com/strains/cannatonic 14:04 Keira mentions she had a series on Weedmaps “Cooking with Keira”. Here’s one of her articles on making tinctures: https://weedmaps.com/news/2016/06/how-to-make-cannabis-tinctures/ 32:00 Lindsey and Keira discuss eating vs. smoking cannabis. When smoking, you inhale it directly into your lungs, and it’s absorbed into your bloodstream immediately. The process is different with edibles- the active compounds in cannabis are metabolized in the liver, and THC is change into 11-hydroxy-THC. This gives a more potent, long-lasting high.
