Question about leaves…(modern nutritional info out there?)

Let’s say I take some fan leaves and juice them,
,
Or make a smoothie…
.
Any modern info to entertain than the years old videos on YouTuube that just make broad statements and hypothesize the benefits?
.
Any real info out there?

The only extent of research I’ve done on it is to use a cold press juicer and not a warm/hot press juicer as it kills the thc

Just Google research papers on the subject. I found 4 articles between reading g your post and making this one!
Here’s one:

Links to these papers?!

You found 4?

The one you linked is good, but I wanna know the nitty gritty fine details ,

As in, should I swap my spinach for the fan leaves or is this “ultra healthy” leaf theory just hype for us in the stoner community?

When I was juicing I used my fans daily for about 2 years, I definitely found it made me more regular (bowel movements) and it seemed to always give a significant boost of energy after 25-30 minutes that would last hours. Of course this is just anecdotal, I’d still be doing it if I didn’t make myself hypoglycaemic by utilizing too many sugary fruits etc. come to think of it I should start again, just gotta stay away from the fruits and add more veg , chia, hemp seed etc.

Interesting subject, makes you think what your tossing could be put to use. :thinking:

I completely agree with the energy part. It was like I smoked a super sativa drinking a fan leaf smoothie.

But it also smacked the shit out of me for about an hour with a crazy racy high :stuck_out_tongue:

You might have put some trichomes and some THCA into the smothie and for some reason it got decarboxilated or for some kind of chemical reaction It got into your system as THC…I don’t have and answer to that,but I am interested in the benefits in terms of nutritional and fibre values

100 percent what happened. maybe the friction of blending got it warm enough ( everything else was frozen so thats kind of crazy to believe :stuck_out_tongue: )
