What are Cannabis Tinctures?

Most people underrate Cannabis Tinctures in the marijuana industry. Basically, cannabis tinctures are a form of alcohol-based marijuana extract, or more simply, alcohol with added herbs. Although they are similar, they are not the same as cannabis oils. This is because in tinctures, alcohol is both the solvent and the final ingredient, while oils should not contain alcohol in the final product. In addition to the cannabis compounds, tinctures may also contain a secondary ingredient called “carrier oil.” Carrier oils like MCT or coconut oil literally help “carry” THC and other cannabinoids into your bloodstream so you can get the full benefits. 

Tinctures offer an effective, smoke-free alternative for medical and recreational users. Although they may not be as popular today, cannabis tinctures were actually the most widely used form of cannabis medicine before the criminalization of cannabis in the early 20th century. They are just as effective and often much easier to use than other methods of cannabis consumption. Better yet, you can even make them yourself! Don’t worry, we’ll show you how to do it below. 

Cannabis tinctures can come in many different forms to suit different consumer needs. Tinctures are available as THC and CBD, but only those that contain THC have psychoactive effects. There are also many tinctures that contain various combinations of THC and CBD. The most common have an ideal 1:1 ratio of each compound, but it’s easy to find ones that contain more of one than the other. 

Positive effects of THC Cannabis Tinctures

THC tinctures offer many positive effects thanks to their powerful psychoactive properties. However, the exact effects can vary greatly depending on which strain you choose and whether it contains CBD or not. Overall, THC tinctures provide many of the same effects you get from smoking unrefined flower. These include relaxation, euphoria and omnipresent positive vibrations. Tinctures made from indica strains are more physically relaxing than the mental high that comes with sativa strains. There are many other benefits of using cannabis tinctures, which we will discuss in more detail below.

Medical Benefits of Cannabis Tinctures

Like many cannabis products, tinctures have many valuable benefits for people suffering from a wide variety of health problems. They can relieve ailments such as anxiety, depression, insomnia, etc. Tinctures are particularly useful for patients who are trying cannabis as a treatment option but do not want to inhale cannabis smoke. They also represent an attractive alternative for patients who want to avoid the side effects of some prescription medications. 

While tinctures that contain only THC can provide many medical benefits, those that contain both THC and CBD may be more medically effective.CBD has actually been proven to be a medically and therapeutically effective compound. THC/CBD are best suited for treating physical ailments such as chronic pain due to CBD’s powerful anti-inflammatory properties combined with THC’s direct effect on pain sensation. These types are also more beneficial for patients with certain skin conditions. Combining THC and CBD in a single tincture can increase overall potency through the entourage effect. This effect occurs when different cannabis compounds work together to enhance the effects of each compound. For this reason, blended tinctures are generally used more often for medicinal purposes than those containing only THC. However, all types of cannabis tinctures can still provide fantastic alternative medicine.

Cannabis Tinctures vs. Marijuana Flowers

Tinctures are generally intended for consumption and should not be inhaled into the lungs. They have higher THC levels than regular marijuana buds and are therefore more potent. However, this is not always the case as THC levels may be lower when mixed with other diluents. For some people, using tinctures has many advantages over smoking marijuana flower. Tinctures are generally odorless, making them a much more discreet way of consuming cannabis. Additionally, they help you avoid the negative effects that smoke inhalation can have on your health.

Marijuana Tinctures Compared to Other Cannabis Extracts

In general, other cannabis concentrates have higher concentrations of THC, but these can vary depending on many variables that come into play.

THC Tinctures vs. Edibles

Cannabis tinctures and herbal edibles can have many similarities when consumed and have similar THC levels. However, they may have several advantages over cannabis edibles. Edibles can take over an hour to take effect, whereas with cannabis tinctures you can feel the effects within minutes. It also allow you to consume far fewer calories than edibles and still enjoy a very similar experience.

How do you make the best Cannabis Tinctures?

Making your own cannabis tinctures is a simple process that can also be a lot of fun with the right equipment and ingredients. How to make your own DIY tincture: Before you start making it, you must first decarboxylate the marijuana. Properly decarboxylating your marijuana is crucial to achieving an effective, high-quality tincture. We won’t go into the details of the decarbonization process, but click here for a simple guide to decarbonizing marijuana. After decarboxylating the cannabis flower, grind the marijuana before mixing it with ethyl alcohol (ethanol) in a glass jar. If necessary, you can use an equal amount of edible glycerin in place of the alcohol. Close the lid of the jar and shake vigorously for about an hour. 

**Important: Make sure you use high quality ethanol from a known source to avoid using dangerous alcohol substances. Then strain the mixture through cheesecloth or other sieve and pour into a dropper bottle or other container. And this is how you get your color! There are many other methods and steps you can use to enhance the effects of the dye. You can find more information about these methods here.

How do I take Cannabis Tinctures?

Cannabis Tinctures is one of the most versatile cannabis products and can be used in many different ways. It can be taken in three ways: sublingually, orally, or by adding it to food or drink. When using the tincture sublingually, a few drops of the tincture are placed under the tongue using a pipette. For best results, try holding the liquid under your tongue for at least a minute before swallowing. Sublingual administration allows for a faster onset of action, starting as early as 15 minutes after absorption. 

The tincture can also be taken orally by simply putting it in your mouth and swallowing. This can slow the effects of it and have a similar duration of action to edibles. Finally, you can add the dye to almost any food or drink you want. This results in a similar onset to oral intake. People often mix tinctures with tea, coffee, yogurt, and other foods or drinks that mix easily.

How to store Cannabis Tinctures?

Along with topical medications, cannabis tinctures are among the easiest cannabis products to store due to their incredibly long shelf life. When stored properly, they can last for over a year without losing much of their potency and flavor. This is due to the presence of alcohol, which makes the dye extremely stable. To best preserve the color, simply store it in a cool, dark place. Excessive light and inappropriate temperatures can quickly degrade the dye ingredients. If necessary, you can store the paint in a UV-protected container to prevent damage from light. It is also important to store the tincture in an airtight container to avoid contamination.

side effects of cannabis tincture

As with most cannabis products, dry mouth and dry eyes are very common, so staying well hydrated will help minimize the effects. Additionally, be sure to take cannabis oil in moderation, as excessive doses can cause paranoia, nausea, dizziness, and anxiety. Fortunately, marijuana has extremely low toxicity, so it is very unlikely that you will need medical attention if side effects occur. Another important piece of information is that CBD and THC can interact with some prescription medications and sometimes cause side effects. Always consult your doctor before using a THC or CBD tincture.
