For many people, THC is not just a stimulant. It’s easy to forget that we have marijuana precisely because of its medicinal benefits. So the more health-conscious among us can now consume both THC and bee pollen at the same time. Considered by Pollen Nation to be one of the best supplements you can take, their pollen kief capsules have a long list of healthy uses, including as a digestive aid. It is also strong in antioxidants with anti-inflammatory effects (bee pollen), and it relieves pain while stimulating appetite (THC) and possibly even healing addictions in a holistic way. While these pills may exhibit these properties, they will not help your marijuana addiction or cure a case of munchies. I found that the high from these pills hit you fast and intense, which is of course common for edibles, but this one was so strong that I had to take a nap. I woke up an hour later feeling like waking up from a bad dream, like it was hard to finally escape from the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland with my head still on it. Don’t expect to do anything but pass out with these pills, but if you’re looking for a good night’s sleep, these pills will do the trick.
