Well, outside of any study, my wife uses THC to lower her blood pressure, something Azor and the like were never able to do very well and brought along debilitating back pain.

So, we stick with the THC for blood pressure now.

Yes, she takes indica 10 mg gel-caps.

Vape for convenience and bud for bad panic attacks.

Ah... interesting. Those gel caps work wonders. THC is metabolized by the liver when orally consumed and there it's converted into 11-hydroxy-THC; which is almost molecularly identical to psilocybin. It's a MUCH, MUCH more powerful high. Ingesting 100mg is sufficient in most people to achieve mild psychedelic effects.
