Delta-8 Gummies: Everything You Need To Know

Learn what delta-8 gummies are, how they may help you and what to look for in the products you buy. Everything you need to know on delta-8 gummies, find it here.

Hemp-derived edibles have gained a lot of popularity over the last decade. With the passage of the 2018 Farm Bill, we have been able to explore a myriad of hemp extraction processes that we could have never imagined before. Delta-8 products are the latest example.

Delta-8 can offer you the ideal effects you may have been looking for, without ‘overdoing it’.

WHAT IS DELTA-8 THC?

Formally known as delta-8 tetrahydrocannabinol, delta-8 is a cannabinoid that is naturally found in the hemp plant. Often considered as the ‘cousin’ of delta-9, delta-8 is also composed of psychoactive compounds, but users consider its effect to be more mild as the THC concentration is 0.3% and lower.

Delta-8 can be consumed in many different ways. You can smoke it in its flower form, add a drop of tincture in a drink, vape it or (one of our favorite methods) eat it!

Eating delta-8 can make it easier to control your dosage and the effects are longer-lasting.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CONSUMING DELTA-8 THC?

Delta-8 research is still in its early phases. Nonetheless, many users have reported that they turn to delta-8 to help with the following conditions:

• Delta-8 May Stimulate Appetite

• Delta-8 Can Be Used As A Pain Reliever

• Delta-8 May Help Manage Nausea

• Delta-8 May Help Alleviate The Symptoms Of Anxiety And Depression

WILL DELTA-8 GET YOU HIGH?

Yes, delta-8 products can get you high as they contain psychoactive compounds. Unlike its ‘cousin’ delta-9, the effects of delta-8 are often preferred by beginners (and non) as they tend to be more mellow.

Edibles can take anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour to kick in. So if at first you don't feel anything, wait. Don’t take another gummy. Chances are, your system is taking its time processing the THC. Be patient.

HOW MUCH DELTA-8 THC SHOULD YOU TAKE?

One commonly asked question about delta 8 has to do with its dosing.

Keep in mind that everyone experiences and metabolizes things differently. The right dosage for your friend may not be the right dosage for you.

Dosage is influenced by various factors, such as: THC tolerance, body weight, potency and delivery methods.

Most manufacturers will have a recommended dosage on the packaging, creating a basic guideline for you to work off of. It’s better to start off small than to over-do it.

WHAT TO KEEP IN MIND WHEN BUYING DELTA-8 GUMMIES

The legalization of hemp-derived products has caused an overabundance of readily available delta-8 products. You don’t need to go to a specialized store to find delta-8 products, they can be found nearly everywhere, even at gas stations.

However, the hemp industry is still loosely regulated, placing all the responsibility on the customers to do their due diligence when investigating products and brands they want to purchase from.

By purchasing online, you can easily research and compare various brands. When shopping for delta-8 online, be sure to look into the brand’s core values and quality of their product. Always look for high quality ingredients and third-party lab testing to verify label accuracy before you buy.
