3 Things You Need To Consider Before Using Hemp Products

There are many reasons why cannabinoids derived from hemp have become so popular. From their various medicinal benefits to recreational uses, cannabinoids, in general, have been used for thousands of years. However, despite its long history, current regulation continues to limit the potential scope of use for cannabis and hemp-derived products like CBD. That’s not to say things aren’t changing, though. A variety of changes have been enacted in the past decade that allow the true benefits of CBD and Alternative Cannabinoids be seen across the globe. With the passing of the 2018 Farm Bill, CBD and other cannabinoids have thrived in an open market. Also, as legalization of recreational marijuana spreads across the globe, more countries are starting to legalize marijuana. This means that more people are using it recreationally, and the novelty idea of cannabis and hemp-derived products aren’t as far-fetched as they once were. So, what does this mean for consumers? Well, it means that ahead of full legalization, we can expect to see more and more alternative cannabinoids similar to Delta-8 hitting store shelves. But before you rush out to buy some of these new exciting products, here are 3 tips about how to consume your cannabinoids.

Understand Your Limits

If you don’t already know your limits when it comes to consuming your psychoactive cannabinoid of choice, now would be a good time to learn. While most THC analogs like delta-8 or HHC aren’t known to cause any physical harm, the possibility of affecting your mental health is a very real possibility. It’s well known that ingesting too much THC can lead to paranoia, anxiety, and hallucinations. In addition, it can also impair your motor skills and memory. We can safely assume that the same side-effects can come from related alternative cannabinoids. That said, there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to how much you should consume. Each cannabinoid is different, and the best suggestion is to take things slowly. Start with light doses, assess your feelings for about 30 to 45 minutes, and adjust from there. Use a journal to write your thoughts and feelings! Of course, each cannabinoid is different, so always do your research on potential potency and suggested dosing levels prior to consuming. For example, THC-P is said to be 30 times stronger than Delta-9. This is in comparison to Delta-8, which is said to be a notch or two below Delta-9. Considering this information, you will definitely not want to dose these two cannabinoids at equal levels!

Choose The Right Cannabinoid For You

When it comes to choosing a product, you need to consider several factors. First, you need to decide whether you want something that is more therapeutic, like cbg or cbd, or something recreational in terms of use like delta-8 or THC-O. CBD is one of the non-psychoactive cannabinoids, meaning that it won’t give you a buzz. However, it does provide numerous medical benefits. On top of that, it can also reduce pain and inflammation. Similar cannabinoids like CBG, CBN, and CBG-A are also well known for their therapeutic and potential medical benefits. In the contrary, recently popularized cannabinoids like Delta-8 THC, HHC, and THC-O are psychoactive, which means that it gets users “high.” Depending on which analog you look at, some are also known to provide a variety of other benefits. For instance, delta-10 THC is known relieve stress, improve mood, and even boost creativity. Of course, if you’re looking for a specific effect, you may be more inclined to do more research. However, each cannabinoids come with their own pros and cons. So, it’s important to weigh those pros and cons before making a decision. Our simplest suggestion is to look for a high quality CBD product if you want to enjoy a non-psychoactive experience, and consider either delta-8 or HHC products if you want a psycho-active experience, notably similar to Delta-9 THC.

Choosing a Consumption Method

When purchasing a product of your cannabinoid of choice, you need to decide between edibles, concentrates, tinctures, topicals, flower and more. Each of these options have their own benefits, and each is suitable for different situations. For example, choosing to eat a cbd edible would be a great option for those on the go frequently. It’s discreet, mobile, and you don’t have to worry about the harsh effects that may come from smoking it. This could be a great option for someone who works a heavy labor job that tolls on the body and wants to feel the anti-inflammatory benefits of CBD throughout the day. This could be in comparison to an option such as Delta-8 Flower. Although not as discreet, smoking hemp flowers is a good option for those who enjoy the variety of strains that have come easily available in the hemp industry. You can treat smoking hemp as a hobby and it’s a great way to consume your cannabinoids of choice quickly, and in an efficient way.
