Health-First Best Practices
- Start low, go slow — Especially when combining with potent functional ingredients.
- Decarb properly — Full activation at 240–250°F for 30–40 minutes preserves more beneficial compounds.
- Use quality fat — Coconut oil, MCT, or grass-fed butter improves cannabinoid absorption.
- Pair intentionally — Choose ingredients that support the same goal as the strain’s dominant terpenes.
- Track your response — Keep notes on strain, dose, ingredients, and how you feel.
