Readers benefit from being cognizant of the inherent ambiguity of the term "discovery" and the differences between the identification, isolation, and synthesis of particular molecules.

Discovered in 1969, cannabidivarin, or CBDV, is the varin version of the popular wellness molecule cannabidiol, or CBD. CBDV, a relatively minor phytocannabinoid, has been found to deliver a range of medicinal benefits, including potential anticonvulsant and neurological qualities and the ability to relieve nausea.

In November 2019, I interviewed Canadian senior scientist Dr. Ernest Small regarding his pinnacle—and paramountly influential—1971 book The Species Problem with Cannabis . It was this book that established the North American standard of 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) to separate hemp and cannabis. The European Union has adopted an even more strict limit of 0.2% THC or lower to qualify as hemp in that region of the world.

Although a relatively new technology, serious peer-reviewed research study reports have begun to emerge regarding nanoemulsion technology and how it might be employed in the burgeoning cannabis industry.

Isolated and identified in 1955, cannabidiolic acid, or CBDA, was the earliest discovered cannabinoid acid from the cannabis/hemp/marijuana plant species. It is the acidic precursor of cannabidiol ( CBD ) and provides a variety of medicinal benefits, most prominent of which in the research literature is a reduction of nausea.

You're a cannabis industry professional. You don't have time to mess around. But terpenes are helping shape the emerging legal cannabis industry, so it behooves you to learn about them. The Higher Learning LV™ Understanding series is for you.

Since the dawn of its use, cannabis has had a reputation for increasing appetite in humans—sometimes in significant and arguably comic ways. Colloquially referred to as "the munchies," this pronounced state is complex in its biochemical underpinnings. In fact, while some marijuana-based cannabinoids increase appetite (scientists dub such substances as orexigenics ), others actually squelch the desire to eat every Dorito and Oreo in the house ( anorectics ).

This homework assignment explored the nuanced relationship between endocannabinoids, phytocannabinoids, exercise, and health, with an overview of the theory of clinical endocannabinoid deficiency.

A deep dive into the biochemistry and medicinal efficacy of the master acidic precursor to all cannabinoids of value to humans, CBGA. Many cannabis consumers are familiar with the major cannabinoids tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), and even minor variants such as cannabigerol (CBG) and cannabichromene (CBC). Some are also aware that these medicinal molecules are formed within the nearly microscopic shimmering resin glands of the cannabis plant called trichome
