How Do Marijuana-Infused Topical’s Work?
Cannabis-infused lotions, salves, oils, sprays, and other transdermal methods of relief work by binding to a network of receptors called CB2. These CB2 receptors are found throughout the body and are activated either by the body’s naturally-occurring endocannabinoids or by cannabis compounds known as “phytocannabinoids” (e.g., THC, CBD).
Even if a topical contains active THC, it still won’t induce that intense “high” you’d get from smoking or ingesting cannabis. With most topicals, cannabinoids can’t breach the bloodstream; they only penetrate to the system of CB2 receptors. Transdermal patches, however, do deliver cannabinoids to the bloodstream and could have psychoactive effects with a high enough THC content.

Hi Liz and thank you for this great recipe for pain balm and all your edible videos. Sorry to hear about your condition and I hope this helped with the pain. I tried looking through the comments, but I did find an answer. What is the shelf/refrigerator life of this balm after finished product? Thank you
Could you use a candy melting pot instead of a double boiler?
What is the cocoa oil infused with?
awesome video!!! I’m going to make a batch, do you have a video on making infused coconut oil?
Excellent technique with the whipping! Thank you so much
Thank you for this recipe! I’d love to offer you a $25 gift card towards some great organic therapeutic oils. 💞
Hey Ms. Liz! can Mica be added to change the color?
Pro tip: If you want to maximize your oil yield, presoak your filter in either the carrier oil or your base oil before you pour your infusion into the filter. That’ll give you the most return, reduce the loss, and the filter won’t soak up your precious medications. I hope this helps. 🙏
Thank you so much for not only sharing the recipe but for also showing how to make it. My MIL and FIL have been having mobility issues and her knees and shoulder give her a really hard time. Cortisone shots don’t help anymore and I want to try to make this for her, in hopes that it gives her/them some relief.
Is it possible to substitute arrowroot powder for the tapioca? Thank you, again!
helloIs there anything else I can use besides the tapioca starch if you could help me out please and thank you
Can you use infused organic extra virgin olive oil instead of infused coconut oil?
If you add CBD to it, isn’t it so that you cannot add the regular edible CBD oil but a different one?

PAM ROOT
Sorry to here you have that condition. Have you tried Athletic tape? It is stretchy but firm. My ex has worn knee replacements and is on the waitlist for new ones, but she use them along her tendon areas and it helps a lot. Just a suggestion. I could be very helpful in keeping everything in check and reducing fatigue on your muscles and tendons 🙂
I have a question: I know that heat degrades THC/CBD. Would it be beneficial to add the infused coconut oil later in the heating process (20min part)?
Great video with clear explanations 🙂
What kind of tapioca starch do you use?
Most videos i see with infused coconut oil is more greenish, how was yours more creamy color?
Do feel a certain strain wrks better in your balms for inflammation?
i have grown to love your mixing music. ;))
Just found your channel. Loving it. But how much Tapioca starch did you use in this recipe?
How many oz does this make
Great video! I started using a cbd lotion from Eden’s Herbals and it makes a huge difference!
Can I use thc infused MCT oil to the cocoa and coconut oil?
Liz, I made this about 6 months ago and it truly is amazing. I had all the ingredients on hand and my husband makes his own CBD oil. We have given this salve to several of our family and they can’t believe how well it gets rid of inflammation and the pain!! We are making it again in a few days. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe and instructional video. You are a blessing to many.
Hi! Great video and work you do! Just wondered about your 2 tbsp of coconut oil.. Is it emulsified coconut oil or is it actually cocoa butter? Its just the colour and texture of yours looks so nice and I want to make it just how you did! Hope you can answer, thanks in advance. Keep up the good work!
how much mct oil would you use instead of coconut oil please? is that possible anyway? many thanks! new subscriber!
Nice!!! I suffer from a lot of chronic pain mostly caused by inflammation. Could I use corn starch instead of the tapioca starch? Thank you 🙏🏽
This is crazy, I was just diagnosed with EDS about a month and a half ago! Thanks for this video 🥰
Too many Ingredients Rachel Ray, Simple is Better keep it Organic.
Hi Liz, if you want to reduce inflammation and pain you need to get a grounding bed sheet, it has been a miracle for me and my back. Read Earthing by Clint Ober.
Lizzzzzz OMG, it came out almost perfect. I know what small quirks I made that kept it from being perfect, so my next batch is going to be AWESOMMMME! Great Recipe, Great results. Thank you for your great videos.
I made some for my mother inlaw for her cancer and Author rightists this stuff works great I have a question my sister lives in southern California I live in Northern California is it legal to mail her a jar?
What is the coconut oil infused with?
What is your ratio of your coconut infused butter
Hi, Can you please share the link to your infused coconut oil? Is it different from your canna butter recipe? Thank you.
Can you use cannabis infused MCT oil? Or dandelion infused grapeseed oil or both? What if I have dried lavender, can I infuse it into something to use in this as well? I have so much rose powder and lavender I grow.
Thanks this was exactly the video i was looking for!! 🙂
DoTERRA oils…love them.
How do I make the infused coconut oil??
Great video, Liz. My first attempt at making salve and I ran into a problem that I haven’t seen addressed anywhere. I added the tapioca to make it less greasy but all my clothes, sheets, etc. turn green after applying my salve. What did I do wrong? I used coconut oil as my infuser and then mixed with beeswax and shea butter. I want to make another batch as soon as I know what I did wrong with this one. Thanks!
Hi there was a great recipe thank you much for sharing the question I have is where do you get the recipe for the infused coconut please and thank you
Have you tried amino acids for your connective tissue? Also seamoss and a herb called comfrey root is great for tissue and bone healing in the herbal world.
im sorry i just made it 421 comments, 420 was perfect but i have to thank you for the video, great work! please dont hate me!
So now I’m healthier. Only thanks to Weedborn 🙂
Thanks so much!!!
Can this be made without cocoa butter? I am allergic to it .is there another option
