All About Cannabis Edibles
Gone are the days being limited to smoking a joint or eating a brownie. The options have increased significantly, while the popularity of cannabis edibles has gained momentum. More edible options are available today than ever before.
Cannabis edibles take the form of various foods that are infused with cannabis extracts. Edibles can either be infused with THC, CBD, or a combination of both. Your selection is now wide, and you can choose from CBD pain relief edibles to high-dose THC edibles. Many cannabis-based edibles are made from oil or butter that has been infused with cannabis or its compounds.

The Effects of Edibles
This can be the tricky part. Many people have their favorite story regarding trying edibles for the first time. It usually only takes once. The stories typically involve the length of time required for edibles to take effect. It takes a lot longer than smoking or vaping.
Once it kicks in, it lasts quite a while. With CBD there is next to nothing to worry about as far as a psychoactive effect is concerned. As far as THC is concerned, be aware that its effects will begin within an hour and continue for a few hours. If you are new to edibles, start slow, take a small amount, and see where it goes.
Edibles do not enter your system directly through your bloodstream. Rather, it is digested first then your bloodstream after about 30 minutes or so, depending on several factors including your previous food consumption, your age, your BMI or body mass index, and metabolic rate.
A Safer Way to Dose
Cannabis edibles are safe to take. But do understand that this is a whole other level of high. Your high will be a lot longer and the effect will be a lot stronger, so when it comes to dose, keep two things in mind, THC potency, and eating too much at once.
Side effects won’t last forever and are different depending on a person’s circumstances. A shortlist of side effects includes:
- Dry mouth
- Fatigue
- Nausea
- Diarrhea
- Dizziness
- Headache
Typically, starting with a lower dose is a great way to minimize any of the side effects. Cheaper Greens products have descriptions and potency listings, so it is always good to make sure you know what you are consuming.
