Been doing some research into juicing raw cannabis. Anybody here juicing??? For how long?? If so what type of dosage??

I have a juicer on the way and me and my girl are gonna start as soon as it arrives. She has fibromyalgia, has back problems and a couple of other health issues. Me I'm pretty damn healthy, but cancer runs rampant in my family more so at the 60ish age.. And it sure can't hurt..

From what I've read it takes 4-6 weeks for juicing to take affect..

If anyone would like we will keep a log here and tell ya what we think and/or how we feel... One of the things we a striving for is to get her past periods of what is called fibro flare-ups. Every 2-3 weeks she hurts so bad that it is almost impossible to move about..

out.. Would love to hear about any others that are or have been juicing...

Here's a couple of links and there are many, many more. And if ya google Juicing cannabis there are lotsa vids.

Good stuff nut.... looking forward to your follow-through and reports.

VERY interested myself in this !

Im really interested in juicing cannabis as well. Keep us posted!

Will do.. Like I said I'm pretty darn healthy. At my age you have a few more aches a lil more often, but I have a high pain threshold so I don't pay much attention. Now my girl on the other hand is fucked up at times.. I mean she's tough and all but it's a snowball affect when she has these flare-ups I've spoke of.. Terrible pain leads to depression at times. Depression leads to inactive behavior(sittin',layin, around), leads to more soreness.. So preventative medicine for me and we will see with her.. Cookies helped her with pain and depression but she just doesn't like being stoned all day.. Ok juicer is supposed to be here Friday.. Oh that reminds me. I did read to buy a good juicer.. Of course after I bought mine I found one article that recommends a wheat grass juicer due to the high fiber in cannabis. I bought the most powerful of the Jack LaLanne Power Juicer. I will let you know how that goes too..

And lastly as far as strains that produce high CBN's. Cannatonic keeps comin up.. I will be juicing Purple Kush and Herijuana.. I bet that shocks those that know me..

i have a juicer but never thought about canibis juice ..i havnt used it that much ..i read online somewere about juicing aspergas for cancer ..it really works according to the article .i tried it for awhile but hadnt seen a huge jump in my condition..but maybe a little weed with it mite do the trick .they did say ya needed it everyday for a yr ..

another great way to get our meds without the smoke ..yeah great info ..i'll be watching this forsure ..

Good topic nuto.

Ive been juicin for almost a year now. I would like to report in on how it has affected me but the last year I have had so many medical issues and treatments I dont know what normal feels like.

I truly believe, our bodies are so deprived of cbn's and cbd's (maybe not the people here as much) that any intake is a good thing.

I am currently helping a friend with fibro with a capsule regime.
She takes two different capsules, one as a daily vitiam and one for flair ups

The vitiams are, #0 capsule half filled with 3 strains cannabis(shark, cheese, and P-7), 1 drop of rosemary extract(for digestion), 1 drop of Pau D'Arco extract(for immune system and intestinal track), the top off the capsule with cannabis and close up.

She is currently taking 3 capsules daily, I am taking 7 daily. Without heating the dried cannabis there is no worry about "being wasted". Don't kid yourself you take enough of them and you will know it!

As for her flair ups I start with a #0 capsule again, 3 strains but I take my bud and sugar leaf and warm it to 200-225f. for 10-15 min (just until you smell a nutty cannabis smell) cool it off, powder it and repeat the previous process.

These capsules are used along side the vitiams and are used to boost the affect when a flair up occurs. She tells me that it really helps when compared to other meds.

I also have another capsule reciepe that is even stronger. You remove the extracts and replace the 2 drops with 2 drops of a high grade cannabis oil(can not be butane made)

With capsules you must remember to put your liquids in the middle or it will eat away the capsule.

Shelly has told me that at first she was feeling odd(woozy), but after a week or so there was no side affects to her knowledge, a groggy head in the morning sometimes.

Hope you can use some of this info to help your squeeze out a little

Good luck nuto, best wishes.

Hey bro, I will be watching your thread with keen anticipation. The recent conversations on the bus have sparked an interest in juicing, but I am skeptical, as it smacks of 'if-it's-too-good-to-be-true, it-probably-is' stories.

Please pass on my best wishes to your girl. What she is going through is unfair, difficult, and exasperating.

I agree DB.. It sounds to good for sure, and I'm of the same mind when somethin' sounds to good it usually is.. BUT, I have been lookin at juicers off and on for a quite a spell now, thinking that just juicing fruits and veggies may be healthy. After I saw the vid that was on here somewhere I did some more readin and thought what the hey, got nothin to lose. Seem to find plenty of fan leave and popcorn around.. And I've wasted more money and time on more trivial things.. And it's still a juicer in the end.. I will keep everyone posted on our opinion here..

And once again if anybody has been juicing cannabis feel free to share!!!!

Sir Ganja, I just re-read your post, and I must say I am very interested in how you are helping your fibro friend. How do the capsules work for her, in terms of pain reduction, sleep aids, etc. ?

I find it exciting and frustrating that there is so much potential in cannabis, yet because mainstream science cannot or does not choose to run these experiments, it is up to us. People like yourself are at the forefront of this research, as even though the results could be challenged scientifically, the fact that you are creting new procedures/methodologies is in my opinion, fantastic!

So, if you have the patience to put up with my ignorance, would you be so kind as to start a thread about your capsule-making process, with particular emphasis on the contents and the results attained to date ? I realize I am asking a lot, so feel free to tell me to 'take a hike'...

Cheers guys, and apologies to Nutto for a partial hijack!

No hijack at all Doob. And thanks to Sir Ganga for the info and the pm.. Anxiously awaiting the juicer..

I have decided that we are gonna juice a dozen or so fan leaves and 2-3 grams of popcorn with some carrots and ingest through out the day.. For my lil Sweetbritches flare-ups. I always have cookies, now if I can get her to eat em'... Which I will..
