Strains for Ethers-Danlos syndrome

Ehlers Danlos syndrome is basically a disorder of the connective tissue that impacts the blood, skin, and bones, and muscles. It can even impact the internal organs. Cannabis can help with this, and there are some strains that are good for mitigating the pain and other effects from this as well. For those who don’t know, Ehlers Danlos syndrome is basically one that’s diagnosed based on the family history. If you have a parent who has EDS, it’s more likely for you to get it. It also comes with certain symptoms such as the following: 

  • Skin that’s fragile and does bruise easily. 

  • Dislocation of the joints because of hypermobility 

  • Hyperextensibility of the skin, so it can stretch easily 

  • Increased risk for osteoporosis and hernias. 

Some of this is based on the collagen that’s produced, or the lack of it. A lack of collagen isn’t just for those who have delicate skin, but it can impact your bones and joints.



Those with EDS tend to have fragile levels of both, but Phyto cannabinoids can help with strengthening this, and it can prevent osteoporosis, which is a condition that impacts women quite a lot. This also is good for those who want to get off opioids, as that’s one of the most common things prescribed to those that are looking to get treatment for EDS. 

The best strains 

If you’re looking to use cannabis to help with EDS, this is definitely something that can help, especially if you deal with chronic pain. White widow is one of them. it’s got almost 23% THC in it, and it’s known for being a bit intoxicating, and relieves pain. it’s good for those who want a hybrid that’s balanced, but also is pretty dynamic. 

Sour diesel is another one that does come with a lot of THC in it, and it’s got an even higher concentration of this. This is great for users who are experienced, but for beginners it can be impactful, so be mindful of that before you begin. Hindu Kush is another one. It’s calming, and it relieves pain. it does contain about 20% THC in this, so the effects of this are quite strong and psychoactive. 

Cannatonic is another good one, as this is low in THC, but rich in CBD, so if you need something that relieves pain and inflammatory conditions, this is one of the best, and it’s considered one of the most popular for this. Jack Herer is another popular one for those who have EDS, as this can offer the powerful energy boost that people need. It’s very rich in THC, and it does offer a lot of great combinations that can be a winning combo for those who want something that’ll help them get through the day without being focused on the pain constantly. 

Pennywise is another good one. It’s very effective, and it comes with the 1:1 ratio of the THC to CBD in most cases, and it doesn’t have too much to be too potent. Finally, you’ve got northern lights, which is popular, and it’s very indica heavy, helping to relax, induce relief, and also help you feel less pain. 


These are all super popular strains to use in order to tret the pain that’s associated with EDS, and it’s something that a lot of users like to use. The best way to find a strain that ultimately doe s the work for you is one that comes with a combo of both indica, along with sativa, and when you experiment, you can find the one that’s best for the symptoms at hand, and there are a lot of great benefits that come with this too.
