What Exactly is Cannabichromene (CBC)?

 As cannabis regulations have softened in recent years, Americans have begun to understand a whole alphabet soup of components that this wonderful plant contains: THC, CBD, CBG, CBN, and the subject of this essay, CBC Oil Wholesale. Many cannabis-derived products contain some mix of these, but what exactly do they do?

Because research on cannabichromene (CBC) is still in its early phases, the answer is a little hazy. What science has shown, however, is highly interesting and supports the concept of a "entourage effect," which states that the many components of cannabis work best when they operate together.

But first, let's go back and answer the fundamental question: what do all these letters mean?

Cannabinoids in Abundance

Cannabinoids are naturally occurring compounds in the cannabis plant that have varied effects on the human body. They primarily act through the endocannabinoid system, a network of receptors located throughout the nervous system that regulates a variety of body functions such as mood, memory, cell creation, the immune system, and many more that research is constantly uncovering.

The system contains two types of receptors: CB1 and CB2. CB1 is particularly intriguing because the cannabinoid tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) attaches to it and produces the mind-altering effects associated with cannabis. And it's those consequences that keep it unlawful at the federal level.

However, since 2018, the federal government has permitted the cultivation of cannabis containing no more than 0.3 percent THC, officially known as "hemp." This decision has allowed the other 100-plus cannabinoids a chance to shine and demonstrate their abilities.

CBD, or cannabidiol, is the most well-known of these, and we sell it here at Bona Voluntate. However, even products branded "CBD oil" may contain other cannabinoids in trace concentrations. This inclusion is due to the fact that cannabinoids operating together can amplify and negate each other's harmful effects. This is referred to as the "entourage effect."

But what about the advantages of CBC Oil Wholesale? What contribution does that cannabinoid make?

101 Cannabichromene

Cannabichromene, as previously said, has not received as much attention as CBD or THC. However, there are a few things we can say about it.

For starters, it is not psychotropic. It, like CBD, has little interaction with the CB1 receptor and hence will not make you high. THC appears to be the only cannabinoid that causes this, which is why the federal government has approved any other hemp plant product.

CBC Wholesale was assumed to have little effect on the CB2 receptor for a long time. However, new research suggests that it does activate that receptor, implying that it "may contribute to the potential medicinal benefit of some cannabis formulations."

What are the potential therapeutic applications? There are various theories, but the involvement of CB2 in pain and inflammation is one of the more intriguing potential CBC Wholesale advantages. Again, this is something that many cannabinoids share, and it likely explains why pain relief is one of the most popular medical marijuana applications. However, scientists are still trying to figure out how it works.

It's Burning, it's Burning!

However, cannabinoids do not function solely through cannabinoid receptors. Cannabichromene also interacts to the TRPV1 receptor, popularly known as the "capsaicin receptor."

Capsaicin is the compound that makes chilli peppers spicy, which provides an indication of what TRPV1 works. It aids in the detection of temperature, especially the burning sensation caused by excessive heat, inflammation, or poisons such as capsaicin. (Sorry, chilli lovers, but the peppers are poisonous, which is why they affect your digestive system.)

TRPA1 is another receptor on which the CBC cannabinoid activates. This receptor is also linked to irritation, though in slightly different ways, such as when inhaling smoke or chemical fumes.

Fortunately, CBC's interaction with these receptors appears to ameliorate rather than exacerbate these difficulties. However, scientists are still learning about how CBC works both alone and in conjunction with other cannabinoids.

What Exactly is CBC Oil?

In principle, cannabichromene oil is an edible oil infused with cannabichromene isolate, similar to CBD oil but with a different cannabinoid.

However, you're unlikely to locate it in that form right now. That's because the hemp-growing industry, which is still in its infancy in most U.S. states, is focused on producing CBD-heavy strains while ignoring CBC Wholesale. Simply put, there isn't a lot of CBC Oil Wholesale available for manufacturers to employ.

In fact, if you search the term "CBC Oil Wholesale," you will most likely be sent to CBD products instead.

The good news is that much of what has been written about cannabichromene also applies to CBD. It also does not get you high, and it acts on the CB2 and TRPV1 receptors in ways that appear to help regulate inflammation. The entourage effect of the hemp plant's various components is also used in our Superior Broad Spectrum product.

More good news: With all of the interesting research going on in the cannabis industry, the CBC Wholesale cannabinoid could be the next rising star. As we learn more and hemp growing becomes more common, we will most certainly continue to make increasingly specialised oils with specific blends for specific applications. In other words, keep an eye on this space!
