Cannatonic : Cannatonic is probably the most popular marijuana strain for its noted healing properties , again due to its high quantity of CBD ( 5-18 %). Typically , this cannabis strain rarely has more than 6 % THC content , which makes it well suited for those individuals who prefer not to experience a lot of psychoactive effects . This is a hybrid cannabis strain that can be used to treat several medical conditions , including diabetes , anxiety , chronic pain , and muscle spasm .
Purple Kush : For those individuals who are looking for an Indica dominant hybrid ( 70 % Indica , 30 % Sativa ), Purple Kush is a wellknown product for its purple leaves and dense buds .
However , keep in mind that Purple Kush is potent , delivering high THC content of up to 17 % — and first-time users should be aware of the dose to avoid overwhelming symptoms . This marijuana strain is good for evening and nighttime medicinal use due to its sedative properties . It can relieve stress , calm the mind , promotes body relaxation , and has stronger analgesic properties .
In any situation , it is imperative that you discuss your medical condition ( i . e ., diabetes , chronic pain , neuropathies , abdominal problems ) with your medical provider before initiating treatment with any cannabis or pharmaceutical product .
