You’ve probably heard all about cannabis gummies – one of the best ways to get the rewards of cannabis without inhaling. Cannabis edibles have become quite popular for those who are new to cannabis or those who prefer a more accessible way to consume it. Plus, they come in a variety of forms, such as gummies, chocolates, cookies, and even beverages.
At Garden Remedies, we offer cannabis edibles at our dispensaries in Newton, Marlborough, and Melrose, serving customers across Greater Boston, MetroWest, and the North Shore.
Cannabis edibles are food and beverage products infused with cannabinoids like THC or CBD. Unlike smoking or vaping, edibles are consumed orally and processed through the digestive system.
A key reason why edibles are popular is that they are made in precisely dosed servings, making it easier for consumers to control their intake. There's an edible for everyone, from low-dose options for beginners to high-potency treats for experienced users.
When you smoke or vape, THC (Delta-9 THC) enters the bloodstream instantly through the lungs for a quick onset of effects. The THC in an edible takes a longer path to the liver and undergoes a chemical process through your unique metabolism which plays a role in the delayed effects of an edible.
The metabolized THC is now a compound called 11-hydroxy-THC. This version of the molecule is significantly more potent and more effective at crossing the blood-brain barrier than inhaled THC.
Remember, start low and go slow with edibles – their effects can take up to two hours to kick in and may last longer than other consumption methods.
Because edibles take longer to take effect, they are often chosen for a more gradual and longer-lasting experience.
