Origins
The oil is extracted from Afghani Skunk and CBD Auto Charlotte’s cannabis strains. Afgani Skunk is an Indica dominant hybrid (85% Indica/15% Sativa) strain created through crossing the classic Skunk X Afghani strains. CBD Auto Charlotte’s Angel is a Sativa-dominant strain (80% Sativa/20% Indica).
Composition
Althea THC 2:CBD 25 contains a 2:25 ratio in favour of CBD. This results in a formulation that equates to 2mg THC per 1ml and 25mg CBD per 1ml. However, patients should note that levels can vary slightly depending on the batch.
The carrier oil used in Althea THC 2:CBD 25 is MCT oil. It is a popular option among medical cannabis producers due to the inclusion of medium-chain triglycerides, which are easily digested by the human body. Therefore, MCT oil aids absorption and boosts the bioavailability of CBD and THC.
