OREGON LEAF: "Toke N’ Poke"
Oregon Leaf “The Weed and Wellness Issue” #69 January 2022. In the main article, “Toke and Poke”, Jackie Bryant interviews and reviews Oshihana products.
Lindsay Wynn, the San Diego-based co-founder of Cannabis sexual wellness companies Oshihana and Momotaro Apotheca, explains that, first and foremost, THC is a vasodilator. That means it widens blood vessels, which allows for greater blood flow and, therefore, sensation. When a sex organ is aroused it receives a rush of blood. THC as a vasodilator also shows up elsewhere in the body – it’s why people’s eyes become bloodshot after smoking.
