Delta-9 THC gummies can have a variety of benefits, both for the mind and body. However, we want to split this into two sections. First, we want to focus on the main benefits of Delta-9 THC. We then want to focus on the benefits of ingesting THC in the form of an edible as opposed to smoking or vaping.Potential Benefits of Delta-9 THC
Delta-9 THC itself has quite a few benefits, so let's take a quick look.- Delta-9 THC has the potential to act as both an analgesic painkiller and an anti-inflammatory agent. This means that it may be able to reduce both pain and inflammation in the body.
- Delta-9 THC may also be an anti-nausea agent. This means that it can help prevent or reduce symptoms of nausea, therefore also helping you eat. This can be beneficial for people who have conditions related to a lack of appetite or chronic nausea.
- Delta-9 THC may also act as a sedative. This can be beneficial for people who need help getting a good night's sleep.
- Delta-9 THC, by potentially decreasing cortisol levels while also increasing serotonin and dopamine levels, can act as a mood regulator. It can help make you feel happier and much better, while also potentially relieving depressive, anxious, and stressful thoughts.
- Many people also note that Delta-9 THC makes them feel more imaginative and creative, and in some cases more social, talkative, and giggly.
Potential Benefits of Edibles (Compared to Other Consumption Methods)
Now that we know what the biggest potential benefits of Delta-9 THC are, let's take a look at the potential benefits of consuming cannabis in the form of edibles as opposed to other consumption methods.- When THC is metabolized by the liver, which is what happens when you eat it, it ends up being much more potent than when you smoke or vaporize it. Therefore, you technically get a much bigger bang for your buck.
- When you smoke or vape, a lot of those fumes go up into the air and get wasted. However, when you ingest THC, 100% of it ends up in your body.
- When you smoke or vape, knowing exactly how much THC you have inhaled is nearly impossible. However, with THC edibles, such as gummies, dosing is made easy because each piece is accurately labeled and dosed.
- When you ingest THC, not only does it hit harder, but it also lasts much longer, potentially up to twice as long or even longer.
- Edibles do not harm your respiratory tract like smoking or vaporizing due.
