THC & CBD are the two main compounds

found in the cannabis plant. These compounds

are called cannabinoids. There are over 85

cannabinoids in cannabis, but THC and CBD are

the most abundant and researched.

THC is the cannabinoid

in cannabis typically

attributed to the plant’s

psychoactive effects.

CBD is the minimally

psychoactive cannabinoid

in cannabis that may relieve

anxiety, inflammation, and more.

WHAT PRODUCTS ARE RIGHT FOR ME?

At NETA, we know that the effects of different cannabis products can

vary greatly depending on the individual. Each person metabolizes,

processes and experiences marijuana differently. Different therapies

work well to deliver your desired effect. Plus, there are individual

preferences around the length of impact, day vs. nighttime relief,

method of use and type of effects experienced, among others.

Finding the right product for you will depend on the following factors:

Method, dosage, type and other factors will be explained in detail

over the following pages. When you visit our dispensaries, our Patient

Service Associates (PSAs) will be ready to offer guidance and answer

questions. Not all products/varieties featured are guaranteed to be

available at all times. Menu is subject to availability.

M E TH O D

NETA offers a variety of flower, topicals, edibles,

vaporizer products, and concentrates.

D O S AG E

Most products come in a variety of strengths and dosages. It is best to

start with a low dosage and wait a few hours to realize the full effects.

Or as we like to say: Start low and slow.

T Y P E

The two main types of marijuana are Sativa and Indica. There

are also several Hybrid strains that combine varying elements

of both. Cannabinoid profiles are also important. NETA offers

products in different THC and CBD combinations. At NETACARE.ORG, you can:

Sativas are reported to have the following therapeutic effects:

Indicas are reported to have the following therapeutic effects:

Hybrid strains are produced when two or more different

strains are cross-bred. Strains are often tailored through

cross-breeding, with one variety typically dominant, to

create the desired therapeutic effects.

SATIVA

Individual experiences will vary, so it is important to

experiment with different strains to achieve desired

results. Sativas are often recommended for daytime use.

For some individuals, indicas may result in

tiredness and unclear thinking. Indicas are

often recommended for evening use.

The effect of marijuana depends largely on which type of cannabis you consume.

C A N N A B I S T Y P E S

CBD strains are reported to be helpful in treating a number

of medical conditions and symptoms, while producing

little to no psychoactive effects (or “high”). It has also been

reported to be useful in treating seizure disorders.

A one-to-one ratio of CBD and THC. These products offer a

balance between the psychoactive and non psychoactive effects

of cannabis that some individuals report to be helpful.

Another potential option for individuals looking to avoid

a psychoactive effect is THC-A. THC-A is the main non-

psychoactive cannabinoid constituent in raw cannabis.

It converts to THC when burned, vaporized, or heated.

NETA offers THC-A edible formulations that have

been reported to have the following properties.

ALCOHOLDo not mix marijuana and alcohol.

DRIVING & MACHINERY Never drive or operate machinery under the influence of marijuana.

EATING Do not eat MIPS (Marijuana Infused Products) on an empty stomach.

Eating a full meal before consuming MIPs is recommended as it helps

in lowering the intensity of effects.

TOO MUCH? Anxiety and paranoia may accompany accidental over-ingestion. In

this event, it is best to stay calm and remain in a comfortable, safe

place. With time, these unwanted effects will pass.

PREGNANCY There may be additional health risks associated with consumption of

cannabis for women who are pregnant, breastfeeding or planning on

becoming pregnant. Please consult your doctor.
