The critical THC: CBD ratio
According to one of the leading authorities on Medicinal Cannabis, Uwe Blesching in his book, the Cannabis Health Index (CHI), over 90% of ailments require both CBD and THC. The ratio of THC to CBD is critical and differentiates medical cannabis from recreational cannabis. THC is generally better for night time sleep (helps insomnia) and, as a result, is responsible for most of cannabis’ sleep-inducing effects and pain management. On the other hand, studies suggest CBD acts to promote wakefulness.
THC demonstrates analgesic, anti-emetic, and anti-inflammatory properties. CBD shows similar results, plus anti-psychotic, anti-seizure, and anti-anxiety properties. This is the reason why THC and CBD are like “brother and sister” / “husband and wife”.
They are a vital combination; it’s not about which of them, it’s about the right combination of these vital cannabinoids. THC is psychotic but CBD is anti-psychotic, so having both THC and CBD gives you the wonderful benefits of THC with the CBD offsetting the psychotic effects of THC. A clinical study called “Project CBD” noted that for medicinal purposes the maximum THC: CBD ratio should be 10:1. Green Health products comply with this ratio and are generally below 10:1.

Endocannabinoid system
Discovered in the early 1990s, the system is a network of receptors in the body. The receptors fit with the molecules of marijuana compounds. The system is not well understood but when activated with marijuana is believed to generate relief from pain and other problems.
Whole plant “Entourage” or synergetic effect
Our whole plant solution provides what is known as the “entourage effect” with the synergies of all ingredients of this magic plant working together as a whole, multiplying the effects to provide the desired outcome. We do not produce synthetic solutions or interfere with the plant. Many suppliers provide synthetic single molecule solutions that don’t provide a whole plant solution and are generally ineffective and toxic.
Multi Strain
All our cannabis is multi strain and comes from different strains grown all over SA. Multiple strains has the benefit of having multiple properties Eg Anti-inflammatory, Anti-backterial, Anti-psychotic, Neuroprotective etc.
Correct delivery methods
We utilise drops delivered onto the tongue as this works for mind and body. Topical cream is for skin and localised pain.
