How to interpret the CBD-THC ratio results?
Understanding The Cannabinoids Synergies Between CBD & THC
THC's high is graduated by CBD, which minimizes the negative/side effects associated with psychosis. In contrast to other conventionally prescribed medicines, it makes the experience more enjoyable while enhancing relaxation. It also aids in the discovery of sleep within its natural cycle.
Ratio CBD:THC | Implications / Characteristics | Effects |
0:1 | Strong “high” psychotropic effect | Euphoria, uplifting mood, confused thought, uncontrolled laughs. Strong side effects: Tachycardia, anxiety, tension |
1:2 | Remarkable "high" effects | Euphoria, laugh and thoughts calmer. Mild side effects: reduced risk of having tachycardia, anxiety, etc. |
1:1 | Relaxation with very light "high" effects | Little euphoria, calmness and tranquillity. Few side effects. |
2:1 | Little sedation and heaviness. | No euphoria, sedation, light-headedness, dizziness. Practically no side effects. |
1:0 | No "high" effect, at all. | High therapeutic potential use: anti-psychotic, relaxing, used in epilepsy treatments No side effects |

CANNABIS USE RECOMMENDATIONS
In the event of fungal contamination of dried flowers, it is strongly advised to avoid smoking or vaporizing the product. You might be developing respiratory illnesses.
If the THC levels in the sample are really high, proceed with care. If you become inebriated and do not feel well, remember that you cannot die or have any medical problems as a result of what you have consumed. If side effects continue, don't try to resist them; the best approach to decrease them is to embrace the new perspectives you have.
Always keep in mind that the strength of the desired/side effects will vary according to the drug, amount, environment, and individual medication.
If you are medicating with CBD, it's important that you know exactly how much CBD to THC ratio you're consuming. In that case, we would highly recommend you use a reliable cannabinoid-level testing kit to test your favorite CBD products and edibles. You can easily and affordably test cannabinoid levels at home (i.e. without sending samples to the lab) with Alpha-cat Cannabinoid Testing Kits.
And if testing is too much work for you, we also sell various CBD and CBG products that list exact cannabinoid levels. Check out our shop for Alpha-cat CBD oil, CBD capsules and CBG oil.
