Delta 8 THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is making massive waves in the cannabis market these days. Delta 8 is the mildly psychoactive cannabinoid that's available in many forms, such as, Delta 8 flower, Delta 8 oil & tinctures, Delta 8 vapes & cartridges, Delta 8 kief, Delta 8 Moroccan hash, and so much more. The good news? You can now buy Delta 8 THC in the UK & Ireland.
Available online, Delta 8 THC is gaining enormous popularity and fans. Many seem to love the mild psychoactive effect it imparts. Research has shown that Delta 8 actually improves cognitive function. It can give focus, clarity and stimulate the brain, making the user more alert.
Many will be familiar with Delta 9 THC, which is the robustly psychoactive cannabinoid produced from the cannabis plant. Otherwise known as 'pot', 'grass', 'weed', 'green', 'dope', and others. Delta 9's psychoactive effects usually leave the user in a 'stoned' state, making everyday functions difficult.
Of course Delta 9 THC is widely illegal across the globe, but it is hoped sometime in the future laws will relax.
However, there seems to be some progress in legislation with derivatives of the cannabis plant. In 2018 the American Farm Bill looked at the laws surrounding the hemp plant. Of course, CBD (cannabidiol) is a product of hemp, and it is a valuable resource globally. Sales and demand for CBD products have rocketed in recent years.
CBD is a non-psychoactive compound, it is legal, and safe to use. Many prefer the natural approach to remedy health conditions, and CBD has become a popular choice.
Delta 8 THC is a by-product of CBD. It is converted with specific chemicals which make it mildly psychoactive. However, because of it's psycho-activity Delta 8 seems to be in somewhat of a grey area where lawfulness is concerned, with respect to it altering the mind slightly, albeit in a positive way.
From around 2019 we have seen the infiltration of Delta 8 products globally. Starting off in America, when the American Farm Bill deemed anything produced from the hemp plant as legal. In theory Delta 8 is produced from hemp, via CBD.
There are now numerous Delta 8 products available in the UK & Ireland, such as, flower, oil, tinctures, edibles, vapes, cartridges, hash, and much more. Probably one of the most popular products in the Delta 8 range are edibles. There are gummies galore available to try, which are convenient and pleasant to use.
Gummies are a great introduction to Delta 8, they are individually dosed, and are easy to use. Each gummy should contain a measured dose in milligrams of Delta 8. Ranging from around 10-40mg for each gummy, it is an individual choice as to how much one consumes. It is, however, recommended that the smaller dosage is used first, it can then be adjusted to taste and tolerance.
Another great way to enjoy Delta 8 THC in edibles, is to make your own! Savoury dishes, as well as sweet, are becoming popular with the addition of this beneficial cannabinoid.
Adding Delta 8 onto the list of ingredients is pretty simple and versatile. Delta 8 flower, oil, kief, and shake, can all be good choices depending on what you want to achieve.
For instance, traditional baked brownies are a firm favourite among many. It is simple to add a few drops of oil into the mix, and create a brownie that will relax you, and maybe address a health issue.
Canna butter is another way to include Delta 8 in a chosen recipe. There are lots of techniques and direction on how to make canna butter online. It is a simple procedure that will give a convenient ingredient, to use whenever you want to.
Canna butter also has a good shelf life if kept in the refrigerator. Used sparingly it can infuse beneficial properties without altering taste significantly.
