Healing Benefits of the Ingredients

• Veda Warrior Infused Ghee Butter: In Ayurveda, ghee supports digestion, brain function, and tissue nourishment. When infused with cannabis, it enhances absorption of cannabinoids while delivering anti-inflammatory and calming properties.

• Cardamom: Eases digestive discomfort, relieves bloating, and uplifts the senses. It’s considered a sattvic spice that supports clarity.

• Ginger: A heating spice that promotes circulation, reduces nausea, and stimulates digestive fire.

• Black Peppercorns: Help improve bioavailability of nutrients and spices. Stimulates metabolism and clears sluggishness.

• Cinnamon: Balances blood sugar and offers warmth to counter internal coldness. It’s grounding, sweet, and circulatory.

• Cloves: Anti-inflammatory and mildly analgesic. Supports oral health and digestion.

• Star Anise: Soothes the respiratory tract and supports immunity.

• Fennel Seeds (optional): Cooling and sweet. Fennel helps balance the heat of other spices, supports women’s reproductive health, and soothes bloating.

• Black Tea: Energizing and antioxidant-rich. Supports focus while still pairing well with calming herbs.

• Milk (or dairy-free alternative): Acts as a carrier for fat-soluble herbs and cannabinoids, enhancing their effect and helping to ground the body.

Dosing Guidance

Always mix thoroughly to ensure even THC distribution. The jar itself is 100mg of THC, in order to dose correctly, please remeber that 1 tea spoon is 5mg of THC.
