One of reason I risk my freedom is to have enough plant material to make edibles for my wife.
We are long past the thinking * if I’m not feeling high, I’m NOT getting anything from it* path of thought.
Sort of like taking vitamin D3, you do not feel a thing, but one day you realize I’ve not had a cold or flu, sore throat, nothing in over 12 years now. Same for my wife.
She had a bout of cancer before we met. Then about a year into us living together, it reared it’s ugly head, and that was when I started to make edibles, oil extractions, and tinctures, for her.
The edibles side effects was she got rid of her night sweats,her restless leg thingy, and her cancer checks ups have so far, been negative, for about 10 years.
Is it due to edibles I have no idea, she thinks so, her doctor thinks maybe so, but we do not really know. Why stop?
