What Do We Mean by Cannabis Edibles?
Cannabis edibles are ingestible cannabis products that have been infused with cannabinoids. These products span an impressive range of forms — including beverages, hard candies, and mints. The key difference between cannabis edibles and smoking or vaping is the metabolic path of the cannabinoids.
When you ingest an cannabis edible, the cannabinoids pass through your digestive system before entering your circulation. Hepatic metabolism converts THC into a more potent metabolite, which crosses the blood-brain barrier more effectively than inhaled THC. The metabolic conversion is why edibles produce effects that are stronger and longer-lasting compared to other methods.
Knowing when effects begin is critical with edibles. Unlike smoking, which delivers effects within a few minutes, edibles typically take anywhere from one to two hours to take effect. That waiting period is one of the most key facts first-time consumers need to know before trying edibles.
