Pear Crumble | Cannabis Infused Recipe

0

The ingredients for our recipes are carefully selected in collaboration with experienced cooks in order to maximize the benefits of CBD for your body. What you need to know regardless of the recipe and ingredients is that you have to Absolutely heat your trim before adding it to your dishes if you want to sprinkle a dish already ready. There is no need to do this since you will mix your CBD with the dough that will go into the oven.

Why heat? Simply because before being heated, the CBD is not activated and is actually a molecule called CBDa. We’ll talk about it in more detail in a later article. 

Our goal is also to make you discover simple recipes that you probably already know by simply adding the flavor of cannabis to make you discover a new world of culinary possibilities. Ready for an unusual dessert? Here we go.

INGREDIENTS

Servings: 2 people

Pears4 rooms
Flour150g
Sugar120g
Butter75g
CBD Trim1g


Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180 °c for 25 minutes. During this time, cut your pears into slices or pieces according to your taste.

Step 2

Mix your sugar with the flour until you get a homogeneous mixture.

Step 3

Add the butter to the mixture and stir to create the shortbread.

Step 4

Once you’ve got your sandblasted dough, add the CBD trim and mix it all together.

Step 5

Place your pears in a dish suitable for an oven. This can be ramekins or a big dish if you want a cake. Place the previously obtained sandblasted dough on the pears and sprinkle lightly with CBD trim as you wish.

Step 6

Place all in the oven for 40 minutes. Enjoy hot or cold.

Art of the chef

It is clearly better to taste this hot dish with a scoop of lemon sorbet on top to add a bit of freshness and lightness. Since we leave here on a dessert, the chef strongly advises you the trim of candy Kush. These sweet flavors undoubtedly add a little something more than any other Avengarde trim.

CBD Promotes Healthy Stress Response

CBD Helps Relieve Stress

In today’s fast moving society, we as individuals are met with everyday challenges and situations that can put a ton of stress on ourselves; and as many of you know, stress is one of the worse things on our body – leading to  anxiety, high blood pressure, illnesses, deterioration of the mind and body, and so much more. With that being said, it is extremely important to maintain stress levels so that we can live long, happy, healthy lives. Along with activities such as meditation, yoga, controlled breathing exercises, and fitness; CBD helps relieve stress, and more importantly, helps promote a healthy stress response.

How CBD Promotes a Healthy Stress Response

According to Leafly, “Cannabinoid receptors (CB1, CB2, TRPV1, GP55 and others) and the biochemical machinery necessary to synthesize and generate cannabinoids are present within areas of the brain known to control emotional behavior, mood, sleep, stress, irritability, fear and even the sensation of ‘craving.’ These structures include the prefrontal cortex, amygdala, hippocampus, nucleus accumbens, and periaqueductal gray (PAG) of the midbrain. Several lines of evidence in mice and other animals have clearly demonstrated that activation of cannabinoid receptors within the brain lowers heart rate and blood pressure responses to stress and reduces panic and anxiety behavior.” In simpler terms, research shows that CBD usage can help combat the well-known “fight or flight” phenomenon to physical and mental stress. Leafly further notes that Other studies using similar models in animals have shown that CBD usage can decrease fear-avoidant and conditioned responses to pain or punishment.

This opens the door for a ton of practical and helpful usages for CBD. In another study, CBD was even proven to reduce the stress and anxiety caused from public speaking, while negating anxiety caused from other substances such as the usage of THC.

The Future of CBD

In the years to come, the world will only continue to move faster and faster. Just because we aren’t stressed out about being chased by a lion like our ancestors were, we do face daily challenges that cause an immense amount of stress such as losing a job, driving in traffic, managing our money, and other modern day problems. It is this stress that will wear down our bodies, and it is our duty to take care of ourselves. As the research continues to stack up confirming CBD as a natural agent for relieving so many benefits, many will turn to CBD instead of other conventional methods like medications, alcohol, and drug usage.

5 Benefits Of CBD You May Have Not Heard Of Before

0

As time passes by, it becomes more and more evident that cannabidiol possesses more and more benefits than one could imagine. Studies continue to discover more and more properties of this important cannabinoid which can really add to anyone’s life. Keep reading to learn a bit more about this irreplaceable substance, and feel free to check out our range of CBD products

Mad Cow Disease Prevention 

That’s right- cannabidiol actually works to prevent mad cow disease. Mad cow disease is really neurodegenerative in nature, meaning that it disrupts and impairs neuron function. What CBD does to prevent and slow this disease is inhibit those proteins (or prions) which cause the degeneration. 

Easing of Dyskinesia

What actually is dyskinesia? Well, much like with chorea, those afflicted are known to suffer uncontrollable movements that can really disrupt daily life. Cannabidiol lessens the enzymes contributing to this, allowing for users to go on with the activities many of us take for granted on a daily basis. 

Substance Abuse Recovery

Moving forward when recovering from a period of substance abuse can truly be challenging. Even with the support of family and friends, the shift from using various substances on a normal basis to learning to live without them is rough. In CBD, however we can find a tool that makes an unbelievable difference. From morphine to heroin, people who want to make a change can be helped with cannabidiol. 

Treats Acne

CBD is known to decrease the synthesis of lipids, or fats, and reduce inflammation. When these two effects are synthesized through use of CBD, we find a perfect treatment for conditions which lead to acne formation. 

Schizophrenia Treatment 

CBD is actually proven to supersede performance of several medications for schizophrenia in that it vastly reduces symptoms of psychosis for the majority of patients. This specific realm of research is still developing, but what has already been done is quite promising for the future of mental health.

Think that cannabidiol can help you in any way? There are hundreds of potential aids from this healing medicine that go beyond just these. Comment your experience with CBD below!
