Love Cannabis? Love Coffee? This one is for you. As a lover of both, the idea of combining them is ever-appealing, but is it safe to do so? Research on the combination of coffee and cannabis is still in its’ early stages but its been determined that we are looking at the two sides of the coin. On side believes that there is potential for the cannabis and the coffee to cancel each other out, while the other side states that combining the two may enhance some of the effects of cannabis.
Cannabis and coffee are two of the most used psychotropic substances in the world. The pair also have a long history of use by humans. As per usual, everyone reacts differently to the use of both. For example, the caffeine in coffee tends to energize most people, but may not affect you in that manner and the compounds in cannabis can make you feel lazy, but it may also affect you by giving you tunnel vision for maximum productivity. However, there are some norms to expect.
Besides the increase in heart rate, there are no reported cases of risks or extreme side effects from combining cannabis with coffee. It is always better to take caution, especially since we all react differently.
If we can manage to find the perfect balance between strain, caffeine content as well as cannabis quantity, it would be a love affair. Just like edibles, you need to find the right strain for you with the effects you’re looking for as well as experimenting with what the minimum quantity for maximum effects would be for yourself. If you have don’t make an effort to find that balance, the duo would be redundant as effects from each worsen or rule out effects of the other. Ultimately, we want the love affair that increases the desired effects from cannabis while using less cannabis to get it.
Remember, trial and error is the best tactic to figure out what the optimal dosage is for the effects you desire, as long as you make use of the tips in doing so. Also, keep your eyes out for further development in research on the interactions between cannabis and coffee.
