What Do We Mean by Cannabis Edibles?
Edibles are consumable goods that have been crafted with THC, CBD, or other cannabinoids. These products span an wide range of types — from gummies, chocolates, and baked goods. The key difference between edibles and inhalation methods is how the body processes the cannabinoids.
When you ingest an cannabis edible, the active compounds pass through your gastrointestinal tract before entering your system. Hepatic metabolism converts THC into 11-hydroxy-THC, which interacts with your endocannabinoid system more intensely than smoked cannabis. The metabolic conversion is why cannabis edibles generate effects that are more intense and more sustained compared to inhalation.
Grasping the timing is essential with edibles. Different from vaping, which delivers effects within seconds to minutes, cannabis edibles typically require anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours to take effect. The lag time is one of the most important things new users must remember before trying edibles.
