There are more than 100 cannabinoids found in cannabis, but tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD) are the most widely used. But the plant also contains many additional cannabinoids that have a variety of therapeutic and health benefits. Tetrahydrocannabiphorol is one of the most recent cannabinoids to be identified by researchers who constantly discover new cannabinoids (THCP). What is…

Nature’s Intelligence – Preserving the Natural Cannabinoids and Terpenes in Our That’s Natural CBD Products

If you want to experience the Entourage Effect, we believe it is imperative that you preserve the naturally occurring cannabinoids and terpenes that exist in healthy hemp plants.  To do this, would seem simple, but so many people in the industry have taken steps to refine and adulterate their product to make it “more potent”.  Nature’s potency isn’t qualified by quantity, but QUALITY.

Newly Discovered Molecule May Answer Questions About “Strong” Cannabis – LPC

Italian scientists have discovered a new cannabis compound THCP (tetrahydrocannabiphorol) that could be 30 times stronger than THC. The researchers believe that the compound’s makeup would result in a stronger high. Until now, no naturally occurring cannabinoids have been found with more than five atoms. THCP has seven, making it 33 stronger than THC. "The challenge is that it can take a long time to isolate, especially with rare sources," said Dr. Jane Ishmael, associate professor in Oregon State University's College of Pharmacy. This newly discovered cannabis compound THCP is in such small amounts, it would be hard to locate."It's a surprise to find the natural products from a cannabis plant that we've known about for a long time." However, it’s the effects of the cannabis compound THCP that is most interesting. And if it’s so much stronger, how come its effects haven’t been felt? Perhaps they have, the authors state. "These compounds have higher affinity for the receptors in the human body," said Dr. Cinzia Citti, lead author of the research. She is a post-doctoral fellow at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia in Italy. "In cannabis varieties where THC is present in very low concentrations, then we can think that the presence of another, more active cannabinoid can explain those effects." In other words, “strong cannabis” may not just be a higher concentration of THC, but a higher concentration of the new cannabis compound THCP. “Some particularly potent cannabis varieties have a stronger effect than can be explained by the presence of THC alone,” the article states.
