What if we’ve been overlooking one of the most nutrient-dense parts of the cannabis plant?

@FoodFirstUS had the opportunity to join @SweetHomeCannaB for the launch of their newest series, “In The Raw,” alongside Chris Boucher @farmtiva, to explore that very question. The conversation focused on the raw cannabis plant before heat, extraction, or a finished product and why the whole plant deserves far more attention when it comes to nutrition and research. For years, the conversation around hemp nutrition has largely centered on the seed, but Food First’s work has looked beyond the seed, examining the greens, leaves, and flowers in both fresh and dried forms, with and without seeds.

The results were worth paying attention to. Food First’s testing found meaningful levels of potassium, calcium, iron, and other micronutrients throughout the plant. In the testing, cannabis leaves and flowers contained roughly 10x the potassium found in kale or spinach. Yet there remains a significant gap in research around the nutritional potential of the raw plant. That’s why conversations like this matter. Before we heat it, extract it, process it, or turn it into a finished product, we should understand the plant itself.

The raw plant deserves a closer look.

@ProudSocialist It won’t be found with either major party, they brought us here, they’re not going to lead us out.

@daviddinenberg Cannabis is food first! Help the Food First Initiative fund a study to examine the raw nutritional content of cannabis biomass using US-grown organic hemp flowers, leaves, and seeds.

Caustholo (n.)

Pronunciation: /ˈkɔːst.hə.loʊ/
Word Type: Noun
Root Origins:
• Caust- (Greek kaustos — “burned” or “corrosive”)
• -holo (Greek holos — “whole” or “entire”)

Definition

Caustholo:
A total or systemic act of destruction—physical, cultural, or psychological—inflicted upon a people, place, or truth through corrosive force, often masked by political justification, media distortion, or silence.

It refers not only to mass death, but to the erasure of humanity, dignity, and historical truth through mechanisms of war, propaganda, occupation, and institutional neglect.

We are doing the hemp study the FDA, USDA, and USDHHS refuses to conduct!
Cannabis is food first.
Hemp seeds and green leafy materials are wholly edible and nutritious raw or infused in food.
Hemp biomass contains Omega fatty and essential amino acids, vitamins, nutrients, and minerals for a strong healthy mind and body.
The notion of smoking was mainly indoctrinated through programs by the government to further assist in prohibiting growth, consumption, and overall use. The government programmed smoking a food plant to us to convince us to keep it outlawed. The programming worked, but is inherently false.

That is also why the government refuses to actually study it too. The FDA and USDA have refused to study hemp nutrition. It is federally legal and they still refuse to use the same old rhetoric and arguments.
That is to keep us ignorant to the real facts and origins of hemp.

The notion of smoking and “getting stoned” was mainly indoctrinated through programs by the government to further assist in prohibiting growth, consumption, and overall use. The government programmed smoking a food plant to you to convince us to keep it outlawed. The programming obviously worked, but is inherently false. Folks are ignorant now.
