What is Delta-8 THC?
If you are connected to the cannabis scene in either the grey market or legal side of things, you most likely have heard of Delta-8 THC. Delta-8 THC has become far more popular in contemporary cannabis news across the country and has been a topic of HOT debate. Depending on what state you are in, you might see Delta-8 THC being sold legally in stores, though some states have started cracking down on compliance and regulation. Though what is Delta-8 THC?
Like we have discussed in previous articles, Delta-8 THC is another of the many cannabinoids that are present in cannabis flower and other cannabis products. Other examples of cannabinoids are THC, CBD, CBN, and CBG. Delta-8 THC is said to have gained in popularity because of its similarity to Delta-9 THC, the main psychoactive ingredient in cannabis flower. Due to the Farm Bill of 2018 allowing for hemp derived cannabinoids to be sold legally in stores, many have taken advantage of this law in order to stock them on shelves. Delta-8 can be extracted directly from cannabis that is grown for hemp, and therefore is classified as a hemp-derived cannabinoid.
It is said that Delta-8 THC gives very similar effects to Delta-9 THC but will be far less powerful and has said to be a lighter “high”. Many users say they experience a mild sense of euphoria, happiness, and uplifting feelings. You can now find a wide variety of products in the MA recreational market with Delta-8 as a major factor.
Due to the fact that cannabis research has been outlawed for so long, data on Delta-8 THC is scarce. Far more long-term research must be done before anything can be touted as conclusive.
