Best strains for having sex
In a study, 68% of people said that sex was more pleasurable while having cannabis [1].
The feedback from cannabis users while having sex were overwhelmingly positive in an informal study by Psychology Today [2].
"I'm not a frequent smoker, but when I have smoked and then had sex, it's been the most amazing sex of my life."
"Definitely enhances sex. A few tokes make me feel horny the vast majority of the time, and it makes the whole experience much more enjoyable."
Two experts gave their words of advice on using cannabis for making sex an even more enjoyable experience. John Tishler, a Harvard physician and medical cannabis therapeutic specialist and John Renko, cannabis expert and co-founder of GoLove CBD Naturals shared their views on how to choose the right strain to take your session to the next level.
Terpenes are where the magic lies according to Renko. These compounds found in plants give the flavour and aroma of the strain.
Augment sex drive:
Choosing strains like Do-Si-Dos and Wedding Cake will boost your libido. Both are high-THC hybrids that will hit you fast, providing an intense feeling of warming euphoria before a blissful chill.
Fancy a bunny like session?
Some strains provide the energy to sustain with the most enthusiastic partner. Fancy a bunny like session? Then considers these strains — based on user reviews they provide a boost of energy.
- Cheese Quake
- Super Lemon Haze
- Green Crack
Next level self-pleasure:
The terpene linalool is known for its agreeable calming effect. Strains containing linalool will enhance your solo bed session between the sheets, said Renko. Amnesia Haze and LA Confidential are well known strains for enhancing self-pleasure sessions.
Consumers report a fast approaching sensation that is both super relaxing and psychedelic on the mind and body. Sounds like an appealing orgasm, no?
Anxiety prone folks:
In a study, different strains were analysed and given to participants to rate the most effective one at reducing their anxiety.
Three of the four most effective strains were “Kush” varieties, which all share a similar profile of cannabinoids and terpenes. The top strains for anxiety were: (1) Skywalker OG Kusk, (2) Bubba Kush, (3) Kosher Kush, (4) Blueberry Lambsread.
- Bubblegum Kush, an indica-dominant strain
- Sour Diesel, a pungent sativa
- Jillybean, an indica-dominant strain
