HHC (hexahydrocannabinol) is a relative newcomer to the cannabis market. It is another cannabinoid that is generating lots of interest, especially for those who seek natural remedies to health and wellbeing issues. You can now buy HHC products in the UK, Ireland, and other countries around the world.
Conditions such as chronic pain, inflammation, anxiety, and more can be helped with HHC. In addition to this, HHC can be used with other cannabis cannabinoids, such as THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), CBD (cannabidiol), Delta 8 THC, and others. Often referred to as the 'entourage effect', putting different cannabinoids together can have powerful healing benefits.
The cannabis plant has been recognised for centuries for the powerful healing benefits it gives. Used by different cultures in rituals, spirituality, and man-made medicines, it is hailed as a solution for many different health issues. It is grown wild and in abundance in many countries, although industrial cultivation of cannabis and hemp are multi-billion dollar industries.
However, cannabis is often related to the psychoactive cannabinoid Delta 9 THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), even though there are over 100 cannabinoids present in the cannabis plant. Sometimes referred to on the street as, 'pot', 'grass', 'dope', 'green', 'Mary Jane', and others, Delta 9 gives a mind-altering state known as 'being stoned'. It is the lethargic physical sensation and slow cognitive function that has made this compound famous.
Delta 9, although can be beneficial to health, is widely illegal. There are penalties for breaking the laws surrounding this cannabinoid, so cultivation, possession, supply, and use, is classed as unlawful globally, with very few exceptions.
HHC or hexahydrocannabinol to give it it's full name, is not as well known as other cannabinoids derived from the cannabis plant. It is produced synthetically by hydrogenation of cannabis extracts. The chemical structure of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol) is formed on a double bond. However, the hydrogenation process breaks down the double bonds of THC, and replaces them with hydrogen.
The result of the hydrogenation to make HHC, gives the compound a psychoactive property. It is not as robust as Delta 9, but nevertheless it is mind-altering. In addition to this, it can deliver some impressive beneficial health solutions.
You can buy HHC flower, HHC oil, HHC edibles, and more in the UK & Ireland, from suppliers online. However, it is not as abundant as for instance CBD (cannabidiol), or Delta 8 THC is at the moment. This is mainly due to there being limited information about this compound. As with the latter compounds, HHC will gain pace given time, no doubt, as we learn of it's properties and uses.
