Surely, you have ever wondered: can animals ingest cannabis? What effects does it have on my pet? Can cannabis cure my pet? These and other doubts can be clarified in the following audiobook in which you will learn about the use of cannabis in animals.
The cannabis plant has been used by man for more than 4,000 years before Christ; for psychoactive, therapeutic and industrial purposes; also throughout history we can see how cannabis has been very close to the animal world. From the Greeks, who used it to heal wounds and hemorrhages in their horses, also the green seeds were immersed in water or wine and then heated to relieve ear pain and inflammation. The first known record of use in animals was in 1607 where Edward Topsell claimed that combining hemp seeds with a horse's regular ration caused rapid weight gain and in the 1800s, American veterinarians ordered medications for equine colic with high doses of cannabis.
Currently, the use of cannabis has had an increase in its medicinal applications due to the isolation of its multiple cannabinoids, such as cannabidiol, cannabigerol or cannabichromene, which are characterized by having little or no psychoactive activity. Its therapeutic potential has been evidenced in osteoarthritis pain, allergic and inflammatory disorders, epilepsy, anxiety, skin conditions, cardiovascular and respiratory diseases, arousing great interest also in the field of veterinary medicine and pet owners.
In this audiobook, you will learn a little more about the history of cannabis in animals, endocannabinoid system in animals, its receptors, phytocannabinoids, terpenes and recommended strains, all the homeostatic-physiological functions and therapeutic uses in animals, as well as the different routes of administration, dosage, cannabis toxicosis and products on the market.
