I have been vaping a strain of CBD rich flower which is a 2:1 ratio. It helps however I find that for my more intense migraines, it does not help with the pain. I am interested in trying tinctures as recommended by my MMJ doctor. Since the 2:1 is not strong enough for the really bad pain, is it recommended to get a higher cbd ratio (4:1, 8:1, etc) or a more balanced ratio tincture (1:1)?\"\n_____________________\nI would suggest a more balanced ratio like a 1:1. Many patients sing the praises of the hybrid stain, \"Girl Scout Cookies\" when it comes to pain and inflammation. Make sure the flower or oil is organic. Pesticides will only make your headaches worse. I hope you find some relief.

CBD tinctures especially those with an alcohol base gets into your system much quicker since the alcohol permeates the membranes in the mouth and then out to the bloodstream. Tinctures are a safe and effective way to dose since you can control the dose by how many drops you use and knowing how many mg/ml of CBD you get in every drop.\nCBD oil is very concentrated, more concentrated than a tincture, a little goes a long way. People with very serious conditions tend to use the oil. Since the oil has to be digested, and the liver break it down it can take longer to activate in your system.\n\nPiantaTinta\n_____________________\nAs @eeknight said, there are many ways to evaluate \"better.\" \n\nYou may want to try Elixinol's Liposomes which are specially formulated for increased bioavailability.

I have yet to find \"any\" relief for my chronic pain or migraines and getting very frustrated and spending lots of money. I have tried smoking the top 3 strains recommend with a  vaporizer with ceramic, I've tried Vaping (3 different vendors), I've tried tinctures, edibles all without success. I am hoping a doctor or pharmacists might be familiar with Stadol able to point me in a direction. \"\n_____________________\nIf your chronic pain is actually migraines, you are extremely chemically sensitive and there is a whole article in this section on migraines that you should read. Migraines are inherited on an X-chromosome as an MAO-A snp. This means you must get rid of all neurological toxins from your diet. You might want to review this following information:\nPlease, consider eliminating all free glutamate's from your diet since they are neurologically toxic especially to people who have migraines or anxiety issues.\nConsider visiting www.truthinlabeling.org for more information.  \nPlease view: www.youtube.com/watch?v=iL4SD5f2toQ\nI recommend that you get on the high-dose CBD, low THC in the tincture and take it regularly while eliminating neurologic toxins from your diet and environment. You are extremely allergic to cigarette smoke so be aware if you are smoking cigarettes you are causing your problems. If you're eating out a lot you are increasing your neurologic toxins. Do you want to be well or do you want to cover up the un-wellness with drugs? I certainly am not accustomed to comparing cannabis with prescription drugs. You don't have a drug deficiency in your body but you very likely do have cannabinoid deficiency and should respond extremely well to CBD.\nThe decision is yours because it is your life and your quality-of-life we're talking about. You could have your genetic chart done two know exactly how to get well but for many people that's just too much effort. If you want to get well, let's continue the dialogue.\nYou can know your genetics and set a program of wellness with Nutrigenomics. \nYou may also want to acquire Dr. Amy Yasko's book from Amazon, \"Feel Good, Nutrigenomics\" to show you why you want to pursue this route. Good luck, we may have lots of lifetimes but this is the one we know right now and it is worth living well.\n\ndrolson","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_6668-markdown","title":"My husband is taking THC for brain cancer and is vomiting and nauseous lately. Could it be the THC?","slug":"my-husband-is-taking-thc-for-brain-cancer-and-is-vomiting-and-nauseous-lately-could-it-be-the-thc","content":"\"My husband has been on THC for brain cancer for two months now--he has 1 month to go to complete his 60 grams--have been up to .5 grams within a 12 hour time frame for about a week now.  However, he has become very nauseous recently and has thrown up the last dosages I have given him. Also, he does not have much of an appetite and has lost weight.  His brain tumor keeps him bedridden because that's how the tumor has affected his mobility and gait.  When he sits up in bed he gets nausea. Thus, instead of curing nausea and increasing his appetite something seems to be creating the opposite effect--more nausea and vomiting.  Do you believe it could be the medical marijuana?  I mix his primarily THC with CBD oil and sometimes add a CBD tincture with the THC.  Would you please advise?\"\n_____________________\nYour husband is taking THC pills? Marinol? I would switch to a whole plant extract with CBD and THC that also contains the other cannabinoids and terpenes found in cannabis. This should be more effective.\n\nandrewvanmd\n_____________________\nSmoking or vaping cannabis can help with the immediate symptoms of nausea and vomiting. You can also put the oil on his gum and let it absorb through his mucous membranes. Obviously, this is a complex situation and there may not be one cause for his symptoms. YOu should also make sure the product you are giving him has been tested by a lab. CBD impacts the effect of the THC so you might try giving it independently. Again, inhalation can have an immediate impact on nausea.\n\ndneice\n_____________________\nUnfortunately in this population progression of disease can lead to these types of symptoms.  If you have not already done so, please contact your physician so that they can rule out acute issues such as hydrocephalus, acute bleed, increased edema, or rapid progression of disease.  Cannabis should assist with nausea and vomiting rather than exacerbate it.\n\nNP Joshua","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_6661-markdown","title":"do you have a balm and a tincture both 1:1 for arthitis ?","slug":"do-you-have-a-balm-and-a-tincture-both-1-1-for-arthitis","content":"\n_____________________\nI don't work at Green Cuisine but I can recommend some products that i like to use.

Is it a tincture?\"\n_____________________\nWe recently had a visit from the Hmbldt team and were given a demo on how these nifty pens work. First they are developed to create a certain experience so they have four pens: Sleep, Calm, Relief and Bliss. The pen itself looks futuristic and was devised to work and heat the oil inside differently from other vape pens, which are mostly designed and fabricated in China. \n\nHmbldt pens are made so that the oils are not over heated so they retain more of the cannabinoid and terpene profiles which translates into a very different flavor. The vape is also slightly cool, which is a different experience. When you inhale you are supposed to do so until the pen vibrates at which point you know you have had the accurate dosage.\n\nThis is where the pen really stands apart, as that vibration indicates one dose so you can really understand how much CBD to THC you have ingested. This allows for a well rounded and consistent experience. I really like the pens.\n\npamelahadfield","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_6614-markdown","title":"What type of tincture would be best for chronic nerve pain","slug":"what-type-of-tincture-would-be-best-for-chronic-nerve-pain","content":"\"Pain arose denovo - no trauma .

When I tried vaping a sativa/indica blend it calmed me to get to sleep...but neither the edible nor the tincture worked to keep me asleep!

In my experience w/ the patients I see through HelloMD, we've had alot of success in helping people sleep by adding small amounts of CBN along w/ THC;  try this combo (in small amounts/ dosages) first with edibles as this should provide for longer duration sleep compared to using a vape-pen or tincture.  What makes you feel you've developed a tolerance?  I wouldn't worry about this too much unless you actually notice having to purchase more cannabis products than in the past during a certain time duration to achieve the same results.  If this is the case, taking a short breather from cannabis might be just what you need.  Don't forget to exercise daily as this helps sleep and also try mindfulness & meditation right before bedtime as this has helped many of my patients.  Mindful.org has good mindfulness tips & SleepAssociation.org & SleepFoundation.org has good tips for sleep hygiene, prepping your head & sleep space for sleep.  I hope all of this helps out, please write back and let us know!\n\ndrpark","image":null}},{"node":{"id":"Question_11489-markdown","title":"migraine headaches.

If your friend has a lower tolerance or is new to cannabis and attempting to avoid psychoactive effects, I would suggest starting with 1-2 drops of our Recovery 4:1 formula. If she consumes THC to some extent or has a higher natural tolerance, 1-2 drops of Relief 1:1 may be a better option but she may feel some level of psychoactivity.
