Dharmanol™ Citrolene™ Update 04-14-2014
First results are in from our testing of our new product Dharmanol™ Citrolene™, which is currently in the development stage. The results are impressive, obvious, and very encouraging.
Dharmanol™ Citrolene™ combines an array of non-psychoactive elements of the cannabis/hemp plant with a natural terpene known as d-Limonene. D-Limonene is one of the most common terpenes found in cannabis/hemp and, unlike the cannabinoids, it is also found in other plants.
D-Limonene is an exciting molecule as it has been tested for its cancer-fighting qualities and the results are impressive; Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center lists over a dozen promising studies on its website.
In this application, it is the mechanism of d-Limonene that is so exiting. The molecule binds with same receptors in the human body as do pharmaceutical benzodiazepines such as Valium and Xanax. As a result, studies on lab animals have shown substantial relaxing, anti-anxiety and anti-spasmodic effects, very similar to those of the harder pharmaceuticals.
The dangers of benzodiazepines are well documented. These include tolerance, addiction, and a number of other negatives that compromise most of the benefits of these drugs in many patients. D-Limonene, however, is absolutely non-toxic, even in large doses. It is also extracted from the peels of citrus fruits such as oranges, grapefruits and lemons.
The theory here is that because d-Limonene binds with the same receptors as Valium and Xanax, it will deliver similar results. But because it is basically a non-toxic food product, the negatives of use are far less than the chemical pharmaceutical drugs.
Much testing of lab rats shows that a dose of d-Limonene mimics most all of the effects of the benzos. Our first beta testing with medical cannabis patients certainly indicates that this may be very true.
First tests are bearing out the theory just as expected. Many subjects report substantial Valium/Xanax-like results from taking the medicine, but no negatives other than moderate lethargy and an occasional “citrus burp.”
One of the most promising effects that we have been witnessing from the first trials is an immediate reversal of mood following a negative triggering event. Individuals who are prone to depression have noticed an immediate turnaround from a downwards spiral after taking Dharmanol™ Citrolene™. This effect was repeated in the reports of several patients and seems to be a major factor of the effects of the medicine.
While all the info we have been gathering is absolutely anecdotal, it is indicative that the expected effects may be just as we anticipated. There may be great benefit in a relaxing, anti-anxiety, anti-spasmodic supplement that is all natural and thoroughly non-toxic. More testing is needed, of course, especially well-designed clinical trials, and we are working on that.
Free doses of Dharmanol™ Citrolene™ are available to those who wish to help us with the testing. They are available through www.Pharmajanes.com. We would like to sincerely thank all those who have helped us with this project.
Dharmanol™ Citrolene™ is now going through packaging development and will be available to purchase through Pharmajanes and participating dispensaries within a few weeks.
Thanks again to all those who have helped us develop this exciting new product.
