Obama Kush - Strain review - Terpenes & Medicinal affects.

Created by crossing the indica Afghani strain with the sativa dominant OG Kush. Originally, Obama strain was propagated in Michigan, but now it is found to be available all across the country. Obama has a very recognizable smell, like pine and berries, but also earthy to really remind you it's an indica.

Up to 21% THC and .2% CBD. Being delta 9 dominant (THC) this strain will best serve you medicinally as an anti-inflammatory and pain killer. Also, THC has been shown to reduce the amyloid plaques in the brain that cause Alzhiemer’s. In pre-clinical trials THC has been proven to reduce levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in glioma (brain cancer) cells. This is important because a reduction in VEGF means that brain cancer tumors are unable to grow the new blood vessels they need to sustain themselves, grow and spread. This discovery offers great promise for the treatment of brain cancer. THC is also a bronchodilator, anti-spasmodic, muscle relaxant, a powerful neuroprotectant and antioxidant. In fact, it has 20 times the anti-inflammatory power of aspirin and twice that of hydrocortisone.

The stone is particularly heavy. Notorious for "couch lock", this strain is best enjoyed at night 😆 I remember the first time I smoked it being so glad that I had already finished trimming. It's a great strain if you have a hard time going to bed, or need to stimulate your appetite.
