Why can two strains with a similar THC content act completely differently? The answer is often the entourage effect - one of the more important ideas in medical cannabis, which explains why the whole plant matters, not a single number on the label.
The entourage effect is the observation that the individual components of cannabis - cannabinoids and terpenes - act more strongly and differently together than in isolation. They cooperate, mutually modulating each other's action.
That is why the natural, full plant profile can be more effective than isolated THC or CBD alone.
The entourage effect is made up mainly of:
It is a bit like an orchestra: a single instrument sounds different from the whole ensemble playing together. We cover the components in terpenes and CBG and CBN.
From the entourage effect comes a practical conclusion: the doctor looks not only at THC content but at the whole strain profile, matching it to your symptoms - one suits daytime pain, another sleep.
We describe the mechanism it all acts on in the endocannabinoid system.
For the patient the key point is that strain choice is a job for the doctor, not a matter of the THC percentage alone. The first visit is in person - in Krakow, Bydgoszcz, Torun or Kielce, booking at 731 000 645.
