10. Demystifying Dabs: How Cannabis Concentrates Deliver a Cleaner, Clearer High
What makes a dab different from a joint? And is dabbing just for stoners—or could it be the cleanest, most flavorful way to consume cannabis? In this episode of The High Guide, April Pride is joined by cannabis expert Elise McRoberts to unpack the myths, methods, and meaningful moments behind cannabis concentrates. From vape pens to full-spectrum dabs, you’ll get a crash course in what these potent extracts are, how to dose them safely, and why they might actually reduce negative side effects when used correctly. This isn’t about getting wrecked—it’s about getting intentional.
🔵 Key Takeaways
-Cannabis concentrates aren’t just for dab rigs—vape pens and tinctures count too.
-A low-temp, micro-dose dab can offer clean, full-flavor effects without the overwhelm.
-Concentrates preserve terpenes and flavonoids better than many other consumption methods.
-Not all extracts are the same—know what’s in your vape oil and how it was made.
-The stigma around dabbing is outdated; with the right approach, it’s a refined, effective way to consume cannabis.
