THC gummies are candies that contain delta-9 Tetrahydrocannabinol — the famous “THC” for short. You’ll find sweet, sour, spicy, and savory varieties at your local licensed dispensary. From classic flavors like strawberry and sour watermelon to savory cinnamon to gummies with a gourmet flair like yuzu, something is pleasing for every palette.
Weed gummies come in varying shapes, sizes, and doses. In New York, a package of edibles cannot contain more than 100mg of THC in total. Within that are serving sizes, typically 5mg or 10mg, although the popularity of smaller “microdoses” is on the rise.
When you consume cannabis gummies, the journey begins in your digestive system. The THC is absorbed through the walls of your stomach and intestines and is metabolized through your liver before entering your bloodstream. This is called the first-pass effect, and it directly affects how you experience cannabis.
Here’s where things get interesting: During this process, THC is transformed into a compound called 11-hydroxy-THC – a compound known to have a more potent and longer-lasting effect than THC itself. Once 11-hydroxy-THC is formed, it circulates through your bloodstream and eventually crosses the blood-brain barrier, interacting with the cannabinoid receptors in your brain.
How you’ll feel after trying gummies with THC depends on a lot of factors. Your experience with edibles and cannabis in general, your metabolism, what you had to eat that day, and the mindset you’re in all steer the ship and influence your experience.
CBD gummies, like THC gummies (and all other cannabis gummies, for that matter), make their way through your body in precisely the same way as their intoxicating counterparts. The main difference is the cannabinoids they contain.
In a dispensary, you’ll find some CBD gummies or gummies with a ratio of CBD to other cannabinoids. But if you find CBD products outside the dispensary, those are derived from industrial hemp. In many cases, those products aren’t produced and tested under the same stringent standards as products sold in a dispensary.
It’s important to note that just as with THC gummies, CBD gummies may have varying levels of bioavailability and onset time. Each person’s body may respond differently, so starting with a lower dose is always advisable and gradually increasing as you feel is right.
Gummies hit differently. For many, the experience feels much stronger than vaping or enjoying a joint. The reason for that all comes down to how THC is metabolized in your body.
Inhaling THC enters your bloodstream, where it travels directly to your brain. That process takes around 15 minutes, and the whole experience lasts two to three hours. But because THC gummies go through your body’s digestive system, the effects take longer to have an impact, and they last for quite a bit longer.
Remember that 11-hydroxy-THC we talked about earlier? That creates a stronger effect on your body and mind. THC from inhaled or topical forms of cannabis doesn’t convert to 11-hydroxy-THC. The theory is that 11-hydroxy-THC binds more efficiently to cannabinoid receptors in the brain, leading to a pronounced and long-lasting session.
