You’ll find several different kinds of edibles in Los Angeles. When you step into a dispensary, you’ll be greeted with different recipes, flavors, and potency levels. But one thing you’re sure to run into is CBD and THC edibles. Here’s the difference between these two kinds of edibles to help you determine which products are right for you.
THC vs. CBD
Cannabis plants contain over 113 different chemical compounds. These compounds are known as cannabinoids. CBD and THC are two of the most prominent and useful compounds derived from the plant. You’ll find a number of products containing CBD, THC, or both that are designed to alleviate negative health symptoms. Both compounds have benefits, side effects, and best-use cases.
CBD
CBD, or cannabidiol, was first discovered in the 1940s and has become a popular natural treatment for a variety of symptoms. CBD can be derived from hemp or marijuana. Hemp-derived CBD products contain trace amounts of THC. Products with marijuana-derived CBD can have higher quantities of THC. Many patients will use CBD products to alleviate symptoms such as:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Inflammation
- Migraines
- Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)
- Seizures
CBD will not produce psychoactive effects on its own, meaning CBD by itself won’t get you high. However, you might experience a buzz or altered mental state if a product contains CBD and high amounts of THC.
THC
THC, or Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, is the primary psychoactive component in cannabis. THC can activate the brain’s reward system by releasing dopamine. High amounts of dopamine cause the pleasurable sensations of consuming marijuana. THC isn’t sourced from hemp. Many patients use THC to treat conditions, such as:
- Glaucoma
- Insomnia
- Nausea
- Cancer treatments
- Chronic pain
- Poor appetite
- Tremors
