Weed And Appetite: 10 Cannabis Products To Stimulate Your Appetite
One of the most infamous side effects of cannabis is the munchies. While this state of extreme hunger has been sensationalized in pop-culture, there is real science behind the effects of weed and appetite.
We know that THC is responsible for the high that weed is best known, but lesser known is that THC is the cannabinoid responsible for the onset of hunger after ingesting cannabis.
How THC Tricks The Brain
Research has established that THC binds with CB1 receptors in the hypothalamus of the brain; releasing the hormone ghrelin, which is in charge of stimulating hunger.
By manipulating this pathway by consuming cannabis, THC can trick the brain into believing it’s hungry - hence “The Munchies.” But increased appetite after using weed isn’t just a funny side effect like it’s portrayed in the movies. For some, appetite stimulation can be necessary.
Keeping up your appetite with cannabis is a great way to make sure your nutrition doesn’t suffer during illness. Cancer patients, or those with diabetes, HIV/AIDS, depression, or anorexia, can benefit from the active ingredient in marijuana because it improves the sense of taste and stimulates the appetite. So, if you’re searching for a way to boost your appetite, here are 10 products greenRush recommends.
