History & Background:
CBC, one of the major phytocannabinoids, was discovered in 1966; over two decades after CBD, by researchers Y. Gaoni and Raphael Mechoulam. Cannabichromene is the third most common cannabinoid in any variety of cannabis, beaten only by THC and CBD. CBCA is the parent chain of CBC. It is converted to CBC via decarboxylation. Most CBCA is converted to CBC which leaves little to no CBCA left for medical research. Since CBCA is a transition compound, its primary known purpose at this time is to produce CBC.
CBC In Hemp:
CBCA naturally develops inside cannabis and hemp. And just like CBD, CBC is non-intoxicating, and will not make you feel “high". CBCA directly correlates to hemp plants’ CBC potency and has been found at a higher level in tropical cultivars (strains). Hemp farmers can derive CBC from their plants. Numerous hemp farmers breed and grow CBC-rich strains that don’t require a trip past the keyboard. No need to head out to the dispensary or get a medical marijuana card for access to CBC. Since CBC isn’t readily available in most cultivars it is common practice for breeders to crossbreed plants yielding higher levels of the CBC cannabinoid.
Benefits Of CBC:
CBC is also known for its ability to increase levels of anandamide, an important natural endocannabinoid in the body. Research suggests it may be helpful for conditions like cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, pain, inflammation, depression, and acne. In human breast cancer studies, anandamide exhibited anti-tumor efficacy. In fact, research indicates CBC is one of the most potent cannabinoids for anti-tumor capabilities.
