Why You Might Want To Try Some Transdermal Cannabis After Your Next Workout

Transdermal cannabis is not your mother’s hemp-infused lotion she buys in bulk from Costco. It often comes in the form of a patch, oil or salve, and is applied topically.

It’s a scenario you might be familiar with: you come home after a day of snowboarding, or a post-work pickup soccer game, and you realize you’re already sporting a nice, yellow bruise from a fall or a tussle.

You might apply ice to that bruise, pop an ibuprofen, rub on some arnica, or maybe even take a bath with some Epsom salts.

But now, there’s another type of treatment you may be able to add to your recovery regimen: transdermal cannabis.

It is not, however, a “topical.” You might have heard of cannabis topicals — usually lotions or creams that you can apply to your skin. But topicals are only skin-deep; they only impact your epidermis, or the top few layers of your skin. Transdermals go deeper into the dermis layer, or the layer beneath the epidermis.

The dermis contains the body’s microcirculation system, and so transdermal cannabis actually enters the bloodstream, which can take it and its effects around the entire body. While topical cannabis will have some impact on inflammation and pain, they won’t get you high and won’t go into your muscles – they’re primarily for your skin. Transdermals, though, do have the potential to give you a high if they contain THC (depending also on your tolerance and how much you apply).

Even the method of delivery can change the impact of a transdermal cannabis product. Patches, which are used in many different types of medicine, cannabis and non-cannabis – typically are made to delivery a specific dose regularly over a long period of time. The most well-known transdermal patch is Nicoderm CQ, which is a nicotine-based treatment to help people stop smoking. There are also contraceptive patches, patches to help with motion sickness, and more.

Transdermal cannabis can also be applied as a salve, typically in order to achieve a more concentrated effect without the need to stretch it over a long period of time.

Mary’s Medicinals, for example, is a California-based brand that sells transdermal cannabis in the form of both a patch and a salve. The patch is billed as a way to provide a set amount of CBD and THC over 8-12 hours. The salve, or “compound,” meanwhile, is advertised as potentially providing relief for “nerve pain, arthritis and joint pain, menstrual cramps, psoriasis and more,” and only lasts three hours.

So far, there have been initial reports about transdermal CBD helping with everything from post-workout bruising to nerve pain and fibromyalgia.

But does it actually work?

There aren’t enough studies on this yet to say definitely, but one study showed that the use of transdermal CBD reduced inflammation and pain in rats with arthritis. The study used gel CBD and found that after four days of use, it “significantly reduced joint swelling.”

One important thing, though, to note about transdermal cannabis: it is much likelier to trigger a positive drug test than topical cannabis, because it absorbs deeper into your skin and reaches the blood stream.

Got Kids? Here’s How You Can Sneak A Smoke Sesh During COVID

The pandemic has robbed many parents of their privacy, making it difficult to keep up with their cannabis use. Here are some suggestions to help ease your pain.

Parents who smoke weed: we see you. You’re out there, smoking weed and parenting, even if you might be a little more careful in choosing the place where you hide your stash. Marijuana is very similar to alcohol for many parents; it’s something they use to unwind and de stress after a day of work. But when everyone is living together, how do you find time to sneak in a toke or two?

The pandemic has thrown a wrench in all of our lives. Weed parents aren’t exempt from this, having less time to relax and get high now that they have to cope with entertaining, educating and caring for their kids throughout the majority of the day.

Still, after some months spent coping with the pandemic and our new living situations, parents have found some ways of recuperating their “me-time.” If that includes marijuana for you, here are some tricks for smoking weed without your kids knowing.

Think about the when and where

Some parents smoke when their kids are out of the house or in their backyards, discreetly. It all depends on the person who is smoking and how comfortable they are with their marijuana use and their kids’ inevitable curiosity if they catch you smoking. There’s no wrong way to do things, but it’s always important to be safe, smoking away from children and keeping marijuana and related paraphernalia somewhere that can’t be easily accessed. You should also avoid driving or doing anything that requires attention or coordination after you’ve consumed cannabis.

Wait after the kids are in bed

It’s easier to wait once kids are in bed to get the weed out, just as it was when we lived in a pre-pandemic world. Now that schedules are off some kids are going to bed at later times, you might have to push yourself to stay awake until later in the night to enjoy your joint, but it’ll be worth it. This time can also be spent doing other things you enjoy, like having some quality time with your partner, watching TV or drinking a beer.

Method matters

While kids won’t likely go around the house saying that it smells like weed, your method of consumption matters when in close quarters with others, especially if you like to smoke. Look for other options, such as a discreet vape or small amounts of an edible. Keep in mind that edibles will be more difficult to time since schedules are pretty unpredictable now.

Cannabis won’t solve all of your problems

If you’re a parent who’s recently gotten involved with marijuana due to pandemic stress, you join a long list of people who’ve also turned to the drug for some stress relief and fun. Still, keep in mind that cannabis won’t solve all of your problems. While the drug can be used as a coping mechanism, it won’t be able to solve any issues or problems that have arisen since the pandemic began and our lives changed dramatically.

Try talking to a friend, a therapist or using a mental health app that could provide you with some orientation and some coping tools that’ll provide some relief for your mental health.

Tilray Posts Positive Clinical Trial Results For Cancer Patients

These encouraging results indicate medicinal cannabis can help improve quality of life for chemotherapy patients.

Tilray, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY) announced that Australian researchers have published preliminary results finding that one of the company’s GMP-produced products is showing promise reducing nausea and vomiting for cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy in a clinical trial.

The results were published in the Annals of Oncology which found a significant improvement in the control of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting. A quarter of the patients taking medicinal cannabis experienced no vomiting and nausea, compared to 14 percent of people who took a placebo. The pilot phase of the study ran for two-and-a-half years with 81 participants enrolled. To be included in the study, patients had to have already experienced nausea and vomiting during chemotherapy despite having taken nausea prevention medication.

“The side-effects associated with chemotherapy are some of the primary causes of treatment discontinuation”, says Philippe Lucas, Vice President of Global Patient Research and Access at Tilray, “so improving the control of nausea and vomiting can not only improve the quality of life of patients but by allowing those affected by cancer to complete their treatment it can also potentially save lives.”

While cannabis has been used before as a remedy for chemo nausea, the most prescribed medicine is Marinol, which is owned by the biotech company AbbVie (NASDAQ: ABBV). However, Marinol is a synthetic drug and patients typically quit renewing their prescriptions based on the side effects and general displeasure with the drug.

“Nausea and vomiting are among the most distressing and feared consequences of chemotherapy,” said chief investigator, Peter Grimison, medical oncologist at Chris O’Brien Lifehouse and Associate Professor at the University of Sydney. “These encouraging results indicate medicinal cannabis can help improve quality of life for chemotherapy patients.” Side effects such as sedation, dizziness and drowsiness were rated as moderate to severe in about one-third of people using medicinal cannabis, but these are considered manageable according to the researchers.

“The trial will now move to a larger phase to determine with much more certainty how effective medicinal cannabis is and whether it should be considered for use in routine cancer care,” Professor Grimison said. “The next phase of the trial is ongoing and will recruit an extra 170 people.”

The world’s largest trial of medical cannabis at the time it launched, the CannabisCINV study is a collaboration between Chris O’Brien Lifehouse, the University of Sydney, the NHMRC Clinical Trials Centre and leading New South Wales (NSW) cancer centers. Tilray is supplying the product for the trial, which is being funded by the NSW government.

Are You Allergic To Marijuana?

Some people report an ultra sensitivity to cannabis along with symptoms that are very similar to allergies.

Allergies are varied and misunderstood, with some people’s immune systems being unable to process certain substances. These substances can include almost everything you can think of, from different types of foods, drinks and even marijuana. Yes, being allergic to marijuana is a thing.

According to estimates, around 10% of people have an allergic reaction to marijuana. These can vary, with some doctors believing that piercing red eyes, runny nose, itchy skin, hives and sneezing could be some of the symptoms.

The degrees to which people react to the plant vary from case to case, sometimes occurring when they come in contact with the plant, ingest it orally or smoke it. Asthma and other lung problems have also been reported as marijuana allergy symptoms.

While most of these side effects sound like standard allergies and not much to worry about, some people report much more serious symptoms, like diarrhea and vomiting when marijuana is ingested orally. For people with these type of sensibilities having contact with marijuana in any shape is a bad idea, especially when mixed with foods like bananas, almonds, tomatoes and other fruits, since compounds in the different elements can interact and result in anaphylaxis. This condition causes plenty of serious symptoms including shock and difficulty breathing.

Since there’s not a lot of research available on marijuana and allergies, there’s no clear way of treating these conditions. There’s also no way of knowing if CBD or other marijuana compounds could cause these same reactions in people with these sensitivities. If you’ve ever felt strange and uncomfortable while interacting with the plant, it’s best to visit a doctor and get a skin prick test or to steer clear of it. There may be some sort of immunotherapy developed in the future.

Where The Presidential Candidates Stand On Marijuana Legalization

Where The Presidential Candidates Stand On Marijuana Legalization

Either way, both candidates need to eventually address what is happening with marijuana around the country especially in light of bringing back economic harmony.

The first of three debates between candidates Senator and former Vice President Joe Biden and President Donald Trump happens tonight. Whether marijuana legalization will be on the agenda for any of the three debates is, well, debatable. But it’s worth reviewing where each ticket stands on the issue.

Biden/Harris

Joe Biden needs to overcome the negative perception of the work he did as Delaware senator from 1973 to 2009, supporting the war on drugs and sponsoring a slew of bills in the late 1980s and throughout the 1990s. One of the bills he cosponsored was the notorious Anti Drug Abuse Act of 1986, one of the key bills that led to racial injustice and disparities in arrests.

But Biden has demonstrated a softening of his stance, saying on “ABC This Week” on August 23 that his administration is “going to make sure that we change the entire system in the way in which we deal with criminal justice from punishment to rehabilitate. No one should be going to jail because they have a drug addiction. They should be going into mandatory drug treatment — that’s why I set up drug courts.”

Running mate Kamala Harris said that the administration will be looking at a policy that is going to be about decriminalizing marijuana.

Biden has said that he wants to reschedule marijuana to Schedule 2, allowing marijuana to be available for medical research. That’s about as close as he has gotten to legalizing, but it’s still a far cry from his war on drugs days. His current position echoes the Democrat platform: “Democrats will decriminalize marijuana use and reschedule it through executive action on the federal level. We will support legalization of medical marijuana, and believe states should be able to make their own decisions about recreational use. The Justice Department should not launch federal prosecutions of conduct that is legal at the state level. All past criminal convictions for cannabis use should be automatically expunged.”

Harris takes a more aggressive position to legalizing, and wants to completely decriminalize and legalize both medical and recreational through the MORE Act that she introduced to Congress in July, 2019. In fact, much of the text of that act was used in the Democrats’ platform about marijuana.

Trump/Pence

The Republican candidates are hard to read when it comes to this issue. The general Republican stance on legalizing recreational marijuana has always been that it’s a gateway drug, or at the very least, okay for medical use, but that’s it.

Sponsors for all of the marijuana legalization bills in Congress tilt heavily toward Democrat congressmen, which is another indication that this issue is the proverbial hot potato inside the Republican House and Senate.

Trump said in a June, 2018, press conference alongside his helicopter that he supported the STATES Act, now with 65 cosponsors and one of a handful of marijuana legalization bills in Congress, after earlier saying that it was an issue for states to decide.

As with many things Trump, how he will actually comes down about legalizing is a toss up, even if his long-time political consultant Roger Stone is a stoner.

Some pundits speculate Trump will create an “October surprise” and legalize marijuana just to garner a few more votes and disrupt the Democrats.

Bottom line

If Biden/Harris win in November, they will likely redo a marijuana legalization bill that will be a sort of hybrid STATES Act meets MORE Act. If they get a Democratic majority in both the House and the Senate, legalization may just happen faster than most people think.. maybe state by state, maybe the entire country.

If Trump/Pence win in November, there will likely be no movement on legalization unless its tagged to a Republican version of social justice reform. The administration may go ahead with rescheduling it to allow medical research. But a Republican Senate majority, historically, would continue to kill any outright marijuana legalization bill.

Either way, both candidates need to eventually address what is happening with marijuana around the country especially in light of bringing back economic harmony.

The marijuana industry is on a roll during COVID-19, and both candidates have to address the incredible revenue that the industry is bringing in. For example, Colorado had $1.2 billion in marijuana sales from January through July, with over $200 million in July alone, racking up $1.4 billion in tax revenue since February, 2014.

New Jersey voters will be voting on legalizing adult use marijuana in November. A recreational marijuana industry in New Jersey itself, with a population of nearly 9 million people, would reach $850 million — $950 million in sales a year by 2024, according to a Marijuana Business Daily projection.

An assortment of measures, amendments and initiatives for legalizing either medical marijuana or adult use are officially on the ballot in seven states this November.

The cannabis business is forecast to have $30 billion in sales by 2023—more than triple the sales in 2018, a figure which may change by the end of this year based on consumer demand.

And as the country rebuilds after COVID, any administration will surely have to address the massive money-making genie that got out of the bottle that turned into the elephant in the oval office. That just might be the thing that saves America.

Medical Organizations Urge Mississippi Voters To Reject Legal Marijuana Measure

Medical Organizations Urge Mississippi Voters To Reject Legal Marijuana Measure

As the November ballot approaches, the battle to sway voters towards medical marijuana legalization is heating up in Mississippi.

A statewide propaganda campaign against a voter-initiated cannabis legalization measure remains underway in Mississippi. The Mississippi State Medical Association (MSMA) and the American Medical Association (AMA) have released a memo this week teaching voters how to reject the measure because the ballot is inherently confusing.

“Physicians advocate for evidence-based solutions,” MSMA President Mark Horne told local news station WLBT. “When we were asked to review Initiative 65, it was immediately clear that this is an effort focused on generating profits for an industry that has no ties to the medical or health care community in Mississippi. That is just one of many red flags that makes a NO vote essential.”

https://www.facebook.com/MSstatemedical/posts/3365417783546123

Voters will choose between two medical cannabis legalization measures at the polls this November, one spearheaded by advocates and the other by state lawmakers. Initiative 65, submitted by Mississippians for Compassionate Care, would permit patients to possess 2.5 oz of cannabis per 14-day period.

After it qualified for the ballot, lawmakers approved legislation for Initiative 65A, an alternative legalization option. While the activist-drive Initiative 65 lays out firm groundwork for a medical marijuana program in Mississippi, including what patients would qualify, the lawmaker-driven Initiative 65A has vague language with no timetable for the program.

Supporters of the original measure believe the late addition of Initiative 65A is designed to mix up voters. An FM3 poll this summer found that 81% of voters support “doctors being able to recommend marijuana to patients with medical conditions and serious illnesses,” with Initiative 65 receiving double the support that Initiative 65A.

“We know that 81% or Mississippians support the medical use of marijuana for patients suffering from debilitating diseases. We also know that in 34 other states, medical marijuana is changing lives,” Jamie Grantham, the Communications Director for Mississippians for Compassionate Care, told WLBT. “It’s not a cure-all for everything, but it is certainly helping millions who otherwise are not able to get relief from traditional pharmaceutical medications.”

Stress Vs. Burnout: What’s The Difference?

Stress Vs. Burnout: What’s The Difference?

Stress and burnout are terms that are used interchangeably, especially when discussing work. Here are some key differences between the two emotional states.

It’s an understatement to say that 2020 has been a stressful year. The pandemic, the current political climate and economical and societal uncertainties have all influenced our stress levels, which have understandably affected our work performance and the way in which we carry on with our days. It’s not uncommon for many of us to feel like we aren’t doing our best, especially when discussing work in today’s world, where words like “stress” and “burnout” are thrown around interchangeably.

According to The Huffington Post, there are some key differences between these two terms. Both refer to conditions on the same spectrum, with stress representing something more temporary, while burnout occurring after you’ve been exposed to long stretches of stress. Burnout is more difficult to treat and remedy when compared to stress.

“Suppose we continually experience stress for a prolonged period of time, without being able to change it,” says psychologist and well-being consultant Lee Chambers. “In that case, we can begin to feel empty, lacking motive, pessimistic and generally careless about life. This is burnout.”

While stress can pop up during a high pressure moment, like a presentation, it usually fades once you’re past it. Burnout tends to affect people for longer periods of time and appears to have no source or easy solution. It tends to result in isolation, poor work performance, lack of motivation and an overall dread over topics related to your work.

Looking for early symptoms of burnout isn’t as easy as it sounds, especially during a year like this. Most of the time, once you realize you’re suffering from burnout, it’s difficult to make meaningful changes.

“Maybe your actual job description doesn’t align with your passion of bringing joy to others, but is there another way you can bring joy to co-workers or clients that could scratch that itch?” recommends clinical psychologist Ryan Howes.

Other suggestions from experts include carving out time for your self-care, even if you don’t feel like it, and taking some time off work if you’re able to. A break from your work environment can help you reconnect with what you love about your job and provide you with some perspective that’ll allow you to see outside of the tough spot you’re in. A break might also help you realize what you want to do with your life, encouraging you to keep your options open and to look for a job that aligns more accurately with what you want to do with your life.

Why CBD Companies Are Sprung On TikTok

TikTok is one of the world’s leading social media platforms. Here’s why some CBD companies are taking advantage of it.

Despite the conspiracy theories that surround TikTok, it appears that the app, with its partnerships with Walmart and millions of users, is here to stay. While this is great news for tweens and bored internet surfers of all ages, it’s also good news for the CBD industry.

According to Forbes, TikTok is an e-commerce goldmine, one that doesn’t have to deal with as many restrictions as other social media sites. It’s a platform that has grown by 800% since January 2018, putting the number of users at the cool one-million mark. There’s tons of new content there every day that can be searched and tailored to your tastes as long as you know how to use the correct hashtags and trends.

“We’ve had a TikTok since about January of this year,” Lindsey Corum, CEO and founder of Cannabombz, told Forbes. “Moments before I posted it, I said to my partner, ‘I don’t know how to TikTok. We’re just going to post it, I think it’s good?’ I had it open in my drafts for an hour and a half trying to make this TikTok perfect.”

The TikTok video now has over 1.9 million views.

Cannabombz not only experienced more viewers and subscribers; their sales experienced a $25,000 spike, about 50 times the amount of their average sales when compared to the previous day.

“The numbers just kept going and going and going. I had posted it later so I stayed up all night responding to questions, interacting with comments. That helped,” said Corum. “That’s how the algorithm works, from what I understand, based on the level of interaction. I was up til 6 a.m. answering questions. I slept briefly, until 9 a.m., then I went to work.”

Corum explains that while TikTok’s algorithm remains mysterious, the video used a trending song along with the hashtag #foryou, which bumped the video up to the For You page, expanding its reach.

CBD and cannabis products are no strangers to social media apps, but one thing that can help new brands is the fact that while people still use Instagram and Facebook, TikTok remains a novelty app. While content that’s overtly cannabis will still be removed, if brands and users lean on the skincare aspect and are careful, they can build a steady base of users and costumers through TikTok. Strangely enough, you’ll find more than dancing tweens on the app.

What You Need To Know Before Getting A Cannabis Massage

While many people say that you cannot get high from cannabis topicals, one licensed massage therapist disagrees. Here’s why.

Adding a cannabis topical, such as lotion or oil to a massage can given one added benefits such as helping to manage pain, decrease inflammation, and improve relaxation. Jennifer Chan, LMT, BCTMB, offers these pointers to help ensure one can fully relax and take advantage of cannabis’ property’s by receiving a massage with cannabis topicals.

How to Prepare For a Cannabis Massage

The only difference between a cannabis massage and a massage is the topical being used will have cannabinoids in it. So prepare the same way one should prepare for a massage without cannabis. Chan usually tells people to make sure they focus on hydration 24 hours leading to their massage to make sure the body is working as well as it can be while on the table. And of course make sure to use the restroom before the appointment!

Can I Get High From a Cannabis Massage?

While many people say that you cannot get high from cannabis topicals, Chan disagrees. “I know people who make an alcohol cannabis tincture, and have to wear gloves while making it or they will absolutely get high. And I know people who have used tinctures for spot treatment, so it is technically possible.” Having said that, Hemp and CHABA topicals in massage therapy should not create any intoxication.

When it comes to passing a drug test., Chan observes that so far no one has come back and told her they’ve tested positive on a drug test. Most of cannabinoids are excreted in our feces and drug tests are mainly urine analysis. Currently, drug tests are only testing for 1 cannabinoid, THC. As an added note, certain foods can trigger false THC positives, as well.

Here Are The Halloween Activities You Should Avoid Due To COVID

The CDC has released a statement encouraging people to get creative with their Halloween celebrations and to avoid exposing themselves and others to COVID.

This year we’ll be experiencing our first ever pandemic Halloween. Since people tend to get crazy when October 31 rolls around, the CDC is taking preventative measures, encouraging state governments to implement rulings and guidelines for people to follow.

Los Angeles was one of the first states in the US to put some rules on Halloween, preventing large parties held indoors and outdoors and recommending parents to avoid trick or treating with their kids, which made some people upset.

The CDC has released a statement that explains the basic risks of Halloween during COVID. Experts say that parties and get togethers that involve less people and are held outdoors are considered less risky, even if each situation is different and there’s always a degree of risk when meeting up with members of different households.

For those who were thinking about replacing their face masks with Halloween masks, the CDC also has bad news: plastic cartoonish masks aren’t effective measures against COVID, unlike boring cloth face masks. Those who are very committed to the spirit of Halloween can double mask, but they might have trouble breathing.

The CDC listed out some of the highest risk activities people should avoid this Halloween. First is trick or treating, which people should avoid in all forms, whether they’re going door to door or handing out candy from their cars. The exchange of candy between members of different households makes it likely for germs to spread, even if people are wearing face masks and are distanced.

In short, no candy should be exchanged this year. Indoor activities, such as house parties and haunted houses, are also discouraged. Going on tractor or festival rides with members outside of your household is also risky, since this requires proximity to others and there’s higher odds of yelling and spreading particle drops.

The CDC also listed out potential Halloween activities that are safe, including pumpkin carving with household members or friends while complying with social distanced guidelines, using Zoom or Skype to show off your costume, or wearing Halloween themed cloth masks. Because that sounds super fun and not at all depressing.
