Are you interested in learning more about Cannaflavins and flavonoids? Then you’ve come to the right place!
 
Cannabis is one of the most popular natural products being researched right now, and one of the most exciting areas that scientists are researching is cannaflavins and flavonoids.

​One research group recently traced the origins of both Cannaflavin A and Cannaflavin B so that they could be metabolically engineered and researched. Scientists are excited because both cannaflavins are potent antioxidants.

If we’ve lost you already don’t worry, because we’re going to explain what these exciting natural compounds are right now!
 
What Are Flavonoids?

Flavonoids aren’t just something that’s found in cannabis. They’re also found in plants, fruits, flowers, and vegetables and give them their vibrant and rich colors. The vivid colors help to attract birds, bees, and also butterflies. There are thousands of different flavonoids, and dietary flavonoids are present in various foods and drinks, including cocoa, wine, blueberries, apples, spinach, and even cannabis.

So, what’s so great about flavonoids? According to a variety of different studies done on animals, flavonoids could potentially reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, cancer, and cardiovascular disease. Flavonoids are packed full of anti-oxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-mutagenic, and anti-carcinogenic properties that all assist our immune system.
 
The Therapeutic Effects of Flavonoids
​
A variety of different studies have looked at benefits which flavonoids in cannabis could potentially offer us. Studies and research suggest that flavonoids in cannabis could offer us a variety of different therapeutical benefits.

Below are some of the most abundant flavonoids that can be found in cannabis:

  • Cannaflavin-A, -B, & -C – Anti-inflammatory, anti-fungal, antioxidant, and anticancer.
  • Quercetin – Analgesic, anti-inflammatory, cardio-protective, and cancer-fighting immunoprotective, and eases skin irritation (topical use).
  • Isovitexin – Antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-hyperalgesia, and neuroprotective.
  • Apigenin – Anti-anxiety, anti-inflammatory, and anticancer.
  • Beta-Sitosterol – Anti-inflammatory.
  • Luteolin – Anti-oxidative, tumor-fighting, and anti-inflammatory.
  • Orientin – Antioxidant, antiviral, antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, cardioprotective, and neuroprotective.
  • Catechins – Anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-proliferative, cardio-protective, and helps lower cholesterol.
  • Vitexin – Antioxidant, anticancer, anti-inflammatory, anti-hyperalgesia, and neuroprotective.

    It’s essential that we note here that, like many of the compounds found in cannabis, flavonoids are non-psychotropic. What does that mean? It means that they aren’t going to get you high, and they have no hallucinogenic properties. Like CBD, one of the most abundant cannabinoids in cannabis, researchers believe that flavonoids could reduce the effects of THC, the cannabinoid responsible for the ‘euphoric high’ that people experience when they consume THC.

Like terpenes and other cannabinoids, experts believe that flavonoids could contribute to the Entourage Effect. The Entourage Effect is used to describe how many compounds in cannabis work together synergistically to boost the therapeutic properties of cannabis. It’s because of the Entourage Effect that many people believe full-spectrum cannabis products are superior to isolate cannabis products.
 
Cannabis Flavonoids Conclusion

We still have a lot to learn about flavonoids and the other compounds found in the cannabis plant, and more research is required before we can make any definitive claims.
