THC is the new hottest ingredient in town. But what is it? And what are the best ways to consume THC? This post delves further into the world of THC-infused products.
What is THC?
THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is a chemical compound derived from the cannabis plant. It is the compound that gives you that ‘high’ sensation. Many people consume it for its anxiety-reliving and pain-reducing properties. It can even help some people to get a better night’s sleep. It is not to be confused with CBD (cannabidiol) – another chemical compound that comes from the cannabis plant, which does not have any psychoactive properties.
Is THC legal?
THC legality varies a lot. Some US states and countries have legalized it for medical and recreational use. Others only permit it for medical use and require you to have a prescription to use these products. Meanwhile, several states and countries have banned its sale completely. Always look into this before you consider buying THC products online or at a dispensary.
Types of THC products
There are many products containing THC that you can try. Provided that you buy and use these products somewhere where it is legal to do so, consider exploring some of the following:
THC drinks
It’s possible to try a number of THC drinks including infused sparkling waters and lemonades. Some of these only have a very low dose for a gentle high. Others are a lot more potent. The herbal taste is usually masked with strong fruity flavors.
THC gummies
THC gummies are a popular introduction to THC-infused edibles. They are a simple and quick way to ingest THC. You can buy gummies online from most dispensaries. They come in an array of flavors and strengths. Make sure to keep them far away from children.
THC chocolate
THC can also be infused into chocolate bars. You can try such chocolates in a variety of flavors. Make sure to stick to the recommended dose. You can compare a few different THC-infused chocolates here.
THC vapes
In some states and countries, it’s possible to buy vape liquids infused with THC. Inhaling these vape liquids works much like smoking and will deliver a quicker high. It’s important to be careful when choosing vape liquids and to not choose anything too potent to begin with.
THC tinctures
A tincture is a concentrated extract in water or alcohol. Using a dropper, you can infuse THC into your own drinks and foods by buying it in tincture form. Be very careful as to how many drops you put into your food and drinks.
THC bath bombs
If you enjoy having a relaxing soak in the bath, THC bath bombs could potentially be worth exploring. In this case, the THC is soaked up through the skin. It’s unlikely you’ll get any psychoactive effects by trying THC this way, but some people do find that such bath products help them feel more relaxed.
THC topical creams
THC topical creams may help to provide targeted pain relief when applied to sore spots. They will not cause a high, but are worthwhile trying for those with chronic pain who aren’t interested in the psychoactive effects.
