Does anyone use decarbed cannabis in gelatin caps? I have been using 1 gm of SouthEast Lights, powderized with a coffee grinder, QID (four times a day for non-medical folks) for several years now and my lungs have almost recovered from 50+ years of smoke/vape inhalation. Minimal coughing and the wheezing is finally gone!

Anyone else doing something similar to this?

I have made coconut oil gel caps.

I haven't tried that, but I've switched over to almost all tincture with just occasional vaping and very rare smoking and I don't wake up choking and hacking the way I used to. Big improvement in my mornings and I like the tincture medical effects way better. It's much more functional than smoking during the day, all day. I'll have to give it a try as I still have a bunch of gel caps left over from when I was using Kratom a long time ago. Thanks for the idea.

I have them both decarbed and raw. I don't know if they do any good or not. If you're into health stuff Google "Marijuna vs Kale". There are more vitamins pot.

I've heard of people using coconut oil and lecithin with decarb, but it seems to me that it would take up space in the 00 capsule that would better be utilized by more cannabis. ;)

I know some think that it helps aid in absorption, but I haven't found any difference with oils as a carrier medium and just never got around to trying lecithin. My wife just doesn't like doing the caps, says it just doesn't hit her as hard as vaping and she doesn't want to have to "wonder if I'm high". I've heard edibles really hammer some people and a lot of normal, experienced heads get real paranoid with them. Just doesn't affect her the same way. For me, it got to be too much trouble to decarb, oil it down, strain/filter and make then make cannacookies. It's so much easier just to grind up the colas in a coffee grinder after decarbing, cap 'em up in 00 caps and take 'em QID.

Now the effect ingesting 1 pound of SouthEast Lights cannabis every 4 months has on my ECS tolerance is a story for another post. :rolleyes:

I haven't tried capsules for oily stuff. Do they seem to not leak? Right now I'm out of edibles so I've making cinnamon raisin toast. Butter, about a gram of RSO, and a lot of cinnamon.

While ago I had one. The results were not mowing the grass in all this heat,, but I took a ride in the country on my John Deere.

I make them between 100 -125 mg each. If I go over 150, I usually wake in the middle of the night and feel anxious and have to tell myself to breathe. But the right dose and I sleep like a baby instead of waking up tossing, turning, and hurting. This is nowhere near filling the capsule up but it makes for a much cleaner process of taking my medicine.

The over 150 dose does not sound like fun. Omg
