Why Medical Experts Prefer Cannatonic

Due to market demands, most marijuana dispensaries only carry strains with the highest THC levels achievable and zero CBD. As if to say, the more THC the better. Medically speaking, first-time users, especially if over the age of 65, experiencing these super high levels of THC are more likely to avoid future use because of the overly powerful effects and an overwhelming head “high” characteristic of these strains. Knowing that these patients may only find strains with super high THC levels and no CBD at their local dispensary, I have to advise them to “Go low, go slow and stay low” to avoid any unwanted and sometimes scary side effects. With Cannatonic, first-time users need not heed this warning.

The Balance of CBD and THC is the Special Sauce

Cannatonic is an evenly balanced hybrid strain (50% sativa/50% indica) known for its super high CBD levels (12-14%) and very low THC levels (7-8%).  The flower is characterized by vibrant shades of green interwoven with hints of purple. The resinous trichomes that cover the flower give Cannatonic a sticky texture. Its soothing fragrance is earthy and woody, with subtle undertones of citrus and pine.

Cannatonic stands out among the vast array of medical marijuana strains due to its balanced chemical composition, making it an excellent choice for patients seeking therapeutic relief without significant psychoactive effects. Recommended for daytime or nighttime use, its ideal for the treatment of chronic pain, muscle spasms, migraines, and inflammation. Additionally, it can alleviate symptoms of anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The strain’s analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties make it particularly valuable for patients seeking relief without impairing their cognitive functions.
