And another article on the subject
http://www.globalhealingcenter.com/natural-health/juicing-raw-cannabis-eating-raw-cannabis/Juicing is working because it provides the cannabinoid acids, which are potent compounds that help regulate the endocannabinoid system in ways not fully understood just yet. When you juice properly, you consume almost no THC or CBD, it is all THCA and CBDA! That is why you don’t receive any psychoactive effects.
Argh, I can't find the article that goes into the biology of how cannabinoids regulate important functions in the body.
When I talked with Dr. Courtney recently he claimed that many people are sick today due to cannabinoid deficiency. In other words, we used to eat the plant in our natural environment. .And now that we have ceased doing so, we're experiencing all kinds of ailments.
