What is Delta 9 THC?

Delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the main psychoactive cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. It is responsible for the high that is associated with cannabis use and is the cannabinoid that is most commonly tested for in drug tests.

THC works by interacting with cannabinoid receptors in the body's endocannabinoid system (ECS). The ECS plays a crucial role in regulating a wide range of functions in the body, including appetite, pain sensation, mood, and memory. When THC activates the cannabinoid receptors, it can produce a variety of effects, including altered sensory perception, mood changes, and altered cognitive function.

THC is typically consumed by smoking or vaporizing cannabis, but it can also be consumed in the form of edibles or oils. The effects of THC can vary depending on the individual's body chemistry and the strength of the cannabis. It is always a good idea to start with a low dose and to carefully monitor your response to the cannabis to determine the right dose for your needs.
