Cannabidiol, or CBD, is known to be a very important component that helps consumers with its anti-inflammatory and pain-killing effects; it is also known for curbing the effects of intoxication and anxiety that are typically involved with THC consumption. It is also important to know that both CBD and THC work on the same receptors, which means that the receptors that act on CBD are the same as that of THC. The only difference is that they both have completely opposite effects on it. So seeing the way they act, we can say that both of them are balancing each other hence the intake of weed should be such that the CBD content is enough to balance out the THC effects to keep the psychotic effect of weed in control.

Lemon slices and peppercorns help.

There are different things that you get when consuming weed. CBD and THC are just two of the components. There are many other aromatic oils and other essentials like terpenes that can affect the different rivers and effects of cannabis. The Other components are equally important in enhancing or mellowing down the psychotic effects of weed. The high you feel is dependent not only on the THC content but also on the experience that might vary with change in these terpenes.

The Terpenes are also responsible for affecting the experience of weed intake. There are different ways in which you can use them to tone down the effects of THC that you don’t like, and you can become more alert and attentive after consuming weed. And since cannabis is a naturally occurring plant, there are other organic plant materials that have terpenes in them too. You can utilize the effects of these terpenes to cut down the effects of THC and control the high you get out of weed.

For instance, black paper is another plant product that has caryophyllene and pinene as their terpene components which are known for balancing out the psychoactive properties of THC. Similarly, lemon is a plant fruit that can help the effects of THC by reducing stress and hyper effects of THC because it has limonene as a basic terpene.

Black pepper contains terpenes, both of which may balance out THC’s psychoactive effects. Lemons may also help you calm down if you feel anxious on weed, as they contain the stress-relieving terpene limonene.
