Delta 8 THC

What do you need to know about THC Delta-8? Although THC Delta-9 is the most well-known cannabinoid in cannabis flower, it isn't the only powerful chemical component. One of its isomer, THC Delta-8, is also one of the four most common cannabinoids, which has some differences in chemical structure and effects.

As THC delta-8 is a lighter version of delta-9, there is a slight difference in user experience. When it comes to the intoxicating effect, anxieties, or paranoias, the delta-8 has a lighter level compared to the delta-9.

This is why you just have a moderate "buzz" and less "high" when using. So if you seek the benefit of THC but don't want to become overly intoxicated, then delta-8 is what you're looking for.

According to the National Cancer Institute, delta-8-THC can be defined as:

“An analogue of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) with antiemetic, anxiolytic, appetite-stimulating, analgesic, and neuroprotective properties. [Delta-8-THC] binds to the cannabinoid G-protein coupled receptor CB1, located in the central nervous system…This agent exhibits a lower psychotropic potency than [delta-9-THC], the primary form of THC found in cannabis.”

Delta-8-THC is chemically different from delta-9-THC by only a few atomic bonds and still offers a potent high of its own.

Now that we know a bit about Delta-8 THC here are a list of the top Delta-8 flowers;
