Delta 8 THC Gummies vs Delta 9 THC Gummies

Most people don’t know this but there are four types of THC, which differ in potency and effects. Delta 8 and 9 THC are chemically similar in structure, as both have a double-bonded structure, but this bond is found at different points of the carbon chain with every form of THC. As a result of this unique design, Delta 8 THC interacts in a different manner with our body’s endocannabinoid system (ECS) than Delta 9 THC.

The effects of the two cannabinoids are different. Think of Delta 9 as the more potent and aggressive partner of Delta 8. The ‘high’ on Delta 8 does not interfere with your routine activities and leaves you with a feeling of calmness and relaxation. Whereas, Delta 9 THC can have unpleasant side effects like paranoia, dizziness, etc as reported by some users.

Are Delta 8 THC gummies legal?

Delta 8 THC gummies are not scheduled in the United Nations Convention on Psychotropic Substances, but we recommend you check your local state law to make an informed decision on using or extracting this cannabinoid. 

How long does it take for the Gummies to work?

In comparison with other edibles, these can take some time to get you high. For most people, it takes anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours for the high to begin. This time duration can differ depending on the concentration of THC in the gummy that you are consuming. We recommend you sit back, relax, and take your time with the gummies.

What factors should I consider while buying Delta 8 THC gummies?
