What are Delta 8 THC Gummies?

What is Delta 8 THC?
Delta 8 THC is a naturally occurring cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. Delta 8 is classified as a “minor cannabinoid” - meaning it has lower concentrations of the potent cannabis plant. While Delta 8 THC is classified as a minor cannabinoid, it does have several therapeutic effects.
What are the Benefits of Delta 8 THC?
Like Delta 9 THC, Delta 8 can relieve many symptoms of common ailments. According to Professor Raphael Mechoulam, who began studying cannabis in the 60s, Delta 8 THC can relieve anxiety, stress, and even nausea from cancer treatments. As always, it is essential to consult your primary care provider before using any THC product.
Wait, What’s Delta 9 THC? What’s the Difference Between Delta 8 and 9?
Delta 8 and 9 are classified as cannabinoids - or natural chemicals found in the cannabis plant. Delta 9 THC is what gets users high and is considered the primary psychoactive ingredient in most THC products. Delta 9 produces this high by binding molecules to the body’s cannabinoid receptors.
Unlike Delta 9 THC, which composes the majority of a cannabis plant, Delta 8 is released when Delta 9 compounds oxidize. Delta 9 THC will, in turn, degrade into Delta 8 THC. There’s also another major difference between the two cannabinoids- Delta 8 THC binds to the 8th carbon chain, while Delta 9 THC binds to the 9th carbon chain.
Essentially, this means that Delta 8 THC gummies are less potent than the Delta 9 compound. Delta 8 provides a gentle high that doesn’t leave you feeling stoned or groggy but alleviates common ailments, just like Delta 9.
