Banana OG Strain Overview
As cannabis strains go, Banana OG is the cream of the crop. Renowned as a creeper that releases its effects gradually, this reportedly stress-relieving strain is a popular choice by medical cannabis patients for anxiety- and pain relief.
Its parents, Banana and OG Kush, bless this strain with potential cerebral and physical effects that may linger throughout the night. Having some snacks handy may be a good idea since this strain is rich in the appetite-boosting cannabinoid THC. It is reported to satisfy patients with appetite loss, insomnia, and muscular pain.

Banana OG Strain Effects & Common Usage
Banana OG’s high THC content may lend itself to a wide range of benefits, including pain- and inflammation-relief. The primary terpene limonene may also elevate mood and ease stress.
Hungry. THC may increase appetite by increasing levels of the hunger hormone ghrelin.
Relaxed. Limonene and caryophyllene may all promote feelings of relaxation.
Sleepy. High levels of THC and the presence of the sedating terpene myrcene may guarantee a good night’s sleep.
Anxiety. Myrcene and pinene may help reduce feelings of anxiety.
Pain. Along with the pain-relieving potential of THC, the terpenes caryophyllene, limonene, pinene, and myrcene have demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties and may help with pain relief.
Stress. The stress-relieving potential of limonene may be attributed to its influence on mood disorders such as anxiety.
Banana OG Strain Dosage Recommendations
Banana OG can have high levels of THC, ranging from 23% to 27%, so it may not be suitable for beginners or those with a lower tolerance. Start with one to two puffs and wait 15 to 30 minutes before consuming more.
The right dosage can vary greatly from one user to the next. If you have questions about finding the right dosage or product type for your needs, consider consulting with a medical cannabis doctor, or you can request a consultation with NuggMD’s Cannabis Concierge.
