"A glass in the morning is guaranteed to relieve symptoms and leave a pleasant feeling that last all day."
Cannabis based Elixirs were common medicines in the United States in the 19th and early 20th centuries. These elixirs were prepared from the leaf and bud of the Cannabis plant and offered syptomatic relief for common colds, flu, general aches and pains, rheumatism, gout, and arthritis. Sadly, Cannabis Elixirs were taken off the market with the prohibition of Marijuana. But with evidence now demonstrating the anti-inflamatory and analgesic powers of the Cannabinoids, it has become clear that the claims made for these early elixirs had real merit.
Elixirs allow for the administration of natural cannabinoids in a liquid "cough syrup" form that coats the throat and is readily absorbed into the body through the GI tract. In addition, other ingredients, including other herbs, may be added during the elixirs preparation to provide combined benefits.
