Neuropathy

PTSD

Alzheimer’s and other dementias

Parkinson’s

Autism

Multiple sclerosis

ALS

And over 150 neurodegenerative conditions

What Is Neuropathy?

Neuropathy is a nerve problem that causes pain, numbness, tingling, swelling or muscle weakness in various parts of the body. Neuropathy affects a significant percentage of the population because it’s a side effect of many different conditions like:

Autoimmune diseases

Diabetes

Chemotherapy side effects

Physical injury

Hormonal imbalance

Kidney and liver diseases

How Can Medical Cannabis Ease Neuropathy Symptoms?

Medical cannabis may ease neuropathy symptoms by interacting with the body’s endocannabinoid system. The endocannabinoid system regulates most bodily functions, including mood, appetite, pain control, sleep and the immune system.

Cannabinoids like THC and CBG bind to receptors, which may help to alleviate pain, tingling and numbness often associated with neuropathy. Additionally, medical cannabis may improve sleep and reduce anxiety, both of which can indirectly help patients manage neuropathy more effectively.

Which Texas Original Medicine May Ease Neuropathy?

RSO (Rick Simpson Oil) products:
These full-spectrum cannabis products, including our
0:1 THC Tincture,
0:1 THC Sweet Pineapple Gummies
and our decadent

Elevate CBG products:
For patients looking for uplifting relief, the Elevate line of medical cannabis products is a great option. Elevate includes the
1:1 CBG to THC Fruit Punch Gummies
and our
1:1 CBG to THC Turmeric Shot.
CBG, known as the “mother cannabinoid,” shows promise for its potential anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective properties.

How Can Terpenes Help With Neuropathy?

Terpenes, the aromatic compounds in cannabis, may enhance its therapeutic potential and may help ease neuropathy symptoms. By working with cannabinoids like THC, CBD and CBG through the entourage effect, terpenes may amplify pain relief and reduce inflammation.
Recent studies
show that cannabis terpenes may be just as beneficial as over-the-counter analgesics and some opioids for treating pain and neuropathy.

Key terpenes that may benefit patients with neuropathy include:

Myrcene: May promote relaxation and help reduce pain.

Limonene: May offer anti-inflammatory and mood-enhancing effects.

Beta-Caryophyllene: Interacts with CB2 receptors and may relieve pain and inflammation.

Pinene: May support nerve health and offer anti-inflammatory properties.

At Texas Original, our full-spectrum RSO products,
1:2 CBN to THC Sweet Dreams Gummies
