What Do We Mean by Cannabis Edibles?
Cannabis edibles are food and beverage products that have been crafted with cannabinoids. They are available in an impressive range of types — including beverages, hard candies, and mints. The main distinction between edibles and smoking or vaping is how the body processes the cannabinoids.
When you ingest an cannabis edible, the THC and CBD pass through your digestive system before entering your system. Your liver converts THC into 11-hydroxy-THC, which reaches the brain more readily than smoked cannabis. This process is why edibles deliver effects that are more intense and more sustained compared to smoking.
Knowing when effects begin is essential with cannabis-infused products. Different from vaping, which works within seconds to minutes, cannabis edibles typically take anywhere from one to two hours to kick in. The lag time is one of the most key facts beginners must remember before consuming.
