Best Cannabinoid for hunger

I did not know where else to post this. Please move it if necessary.

For pure medical reasons, what is the best Cannabinoid to increase ghrelin production without the feeling of being “high?” Is there or has there been one that has been isolated?

I ask because someone I know struggles to eat 1000 calories a day due to many reasons, most being psychological. I am getting them to try drinking a half gallon of chocolate milk a day plus food intake, which would be 1250 calories and 64 grams of protein. But they struggle with food. They do not have health insurance, and like to go the natural way. While I know that some of these Cannabinoids are lab created, they exist in strains that might be explored by the individual at a later date.

Again, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask. The AI’s didn’t know shit… I know strains of cannabis that do work. But I would like to know if there are specific noids that work without the high effect.

Thank you all for your help!

THCa seems to work well for nausea for a family members chemo side effects. I just chuck a Oz of fresh rosin into 120ml bottle of MCT oil without decarbing, probably about 200mg / ML of THCa

Male or female?

Male.

I was reading about CBG. Thank you for those scholarly articles. I really enjoy NIH studies. Very trustworthy.

As far as THC-A, how does that work with not being activated and all? Are there studies that support the non-decarb uses?

I don’t know. I just heard it somewhere, tried it, and it works. Top shelf rosin zip in a bottle of MCT.. Seems to work well for nausea and for myself personally 20mg thca rosin gummies worked well for my appetite. 200-300mg works well for my family members nausea post chemo on the bad days. We do delta 9 and other cannabinoids but at different times..

Everybody’s different.

IMO your best bet is to try a handful of different things and see what works best for them. Studies and advice from people only get you so far… Never know what’s going to work for your case until you try it

In terms of $/gram CBG would be 1/3 the cost of thca rosin. DM if you need a few links.
