Cannabinoids

Cannabinoids are compounds that occur naturally in the cannabis plant, with the most well-known forms being THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) and CBD (cannabidiol). These substances have been found in both the flowers and leaves of the plant. Cannabinoids have traditionally been used for various purposes, including alleviating discomfort and promoting relaxation in humans. In recent years, there has also been increasing interest in the use of cannabinoids in animal care.

In pets such as dogs, for example, CBD may help with stress reduction, pain relief, and promoting healthy digestion. For chickens, there is evidence that cannabinoids may contribute to better overall health and well-being, although research in this area is still emerging. In horses, cannabinoids are sometimes used to relieve stress and promote recovery time after exertion.

However, the use of cannabinoids in animals is still a subject of research and discussion. It is important to always consult a veterinarian before administering cannabinoids to ensure the correct dosage and applicability for the specific animal.
