Infused

One of the most popular methods of medicating is through cannabis-infused edibles, and though traditional “pot brownies” and cookies remain classics, the range of delicious choices available to a patient has never been greater. From rice treats, vegan granola bites, cake pops, candy bars and chocolate-covered espresso beans, to tinctures, capsules, sublinguals and tea, there’s always something to eat at Greenwood Wellness Dispensary.

Unlike smoking cannabis – where the effects can be felt within minutes – edibles take longer to be absorbed by the body, but once they are the effects tend to last much longer, often four or more hours. This, combined with the typically mellow “body high” nature of edible cannabis, makes it especially popular as a sleep aid for patients with chronic pain or insomnia. Because of their high potency, a little goes a long way, so we recommend our patients start with a small dose and wait an hour or so to see how they feel.
