Exploring the Non-Psychoactive Wonders of Raw Cannabis:
A Journey of Health and Wellness


Welcome to a captivating exploration of the raw cannabis plant and its incredible non-psychoactive benefits. Today, we embark on a journey that delves into the lesser-known aspects of this versatile plant, far beyond its reputation as a psychoactive indulgence. Join me as we peel back the layers and discover the hidden potential of cannabis in its most unadulterated form.

Chapter 1: Embracing the Green Goddess:

Raw cannabis, also known as “weed in the wild,” offers a myriad of health-enhancing properties that go beyond its “recreational” (I really don’t like that word!) association. By consuming the plant in its raw state, one can unlock a treasure trove of nutrients, enzymes, and cannabinoids, all working harmoniously to promote well-being.

Chapter 2: The Power of Cannabidiol (CBD):

At the forefront of the non-psychoactive wonders lies cannabidiol, or CBD. This naturally occurring compound boasts an array of therapeutic benefits without inducing the mind-altering effects typically associated with cannabis. From reducing inflammation to alleviating anxiety, CBD proves to be a valuable ally in the pursuit of holistic health.

Chapter 3: Unleashing the Healing Potential:

Raw cannabis, rich in phytochemicals, holds great promise as a powerful anti-inflammatory agent. The plant’s cannabinoids, such as cannabigerol (CBG) and tetrahydrocannabinolic acid (THCA), have demonstrated potential in managing chronic pain, mitigating autoimmune disorders, and even combating cancer cells. It’s a testament to the astounding potential that lies within nature’s pharmacy.

Chapter 4: Nature’s Multivitamin:

Beyond the cannabinoids, the raw cannabis plant brims with essential nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Bursting with vitamins A, C, and E, as well as calcium, iron, and potassium, this unassuming herb could easily earn its place on the superfood podium. Incorporating it into our diets as a leafy green or through juicing can deliver a much-needed nutritional boost.

Chapter 5: Cultivating Balance and Wellness:

Beyond its physical benefits, raw cannabis has the potential to foster mental and emotional well-being. The interplay of cannabinoids within the endocannabinoid system helps regulate mood, reduce stress, and promote a sense of calm. By incorporating raw cannabis into our wellness routines, we can cultivate balance and find respite from the hustle and bustle of daily life.

The More You Know…

As our journey draws to a close, we stand in awe of the non-psychoactive marvels that the raw cannabis plant offers. From its CBD-rich properties to its abundant nutrient profile, this resilient herb emerges as a true ally in the pursuit of holistic health and wellness. So, my fellow adventurers, let us embrace the multifaceted nature of this green goddess and explore the untapped potential of raw cannabis for ourselves. As Anthony Bourdain would say, “Life is glorious and filled with wonders. Let’s devour them all, one leaf at a time.”

Born into the chaos and creativity of the counterculture, my childhood was steeped in the sounds of the Grateful Dead and long nights backstage at Willie Nelson shows. My father captained the Dead’s Pleasure Crew and smuggled cannabis across the Mexican border in the ’60s and ’70s, leaving me with a lifelong hunger for adventure and storytelling. That love of story first carried me onto national television in 2013 with A&E’s Modern Dads, where I found my footing as a charismatic on-screen personality. Since then, I’ve poured my energy into normalizing cannabis through every medium available, hosting and producing Hittin’ the High Road, a travel-docuseries in the spirit of Anthony Bourdain that blends exploration, food, music, and culture to illuminate the diverse ways cannabis connects us. Off the road, I contribute regularly as a correspondent for High at 9 News and as a columnist and feature writer for Blazed Magazine, where my work highlights the cultural, political, and personal dimensions of cannabis. Through curiosity, humor, and a deep respect for human connection, my mission is simple: to shed light on the many ways cannabis intersects with our lives and to help move it from the shadows into the fabric of everyday American culture.
