About Delta-8 THC
While Delta-8 THC, derived from hemp, and therefore federally legal, is very similar to Delta-9 THC (which is illegal in North Carolina), there is not much published research on this particular cannabinoid.
There will be.
It's popularity is growing and restrictions on research are no longer happening. It's only a matter of time before there is data available either proving or disproving a variety of health and wellness benefits.
Our customers report many of the same benefits they find with CBD -- less anxiety, better sleep, and effective pain management -- but with the addition of a psychoactive component. Delta-8, like CBD, is great for relaxation, but Delta-8 also causes a mild, euphoric high, not as intense as Delta-9, but not present in CBD.
Weedmaps.com describes the molecular difference this way:
"Delta-8-THC contains that bond on the 8th carbon chain, while delta-9-THC contains the bond on the 9th carbon chain. Although it's a subtle difference, it has noticeable effects on how the body's endocannabinoid receptors bind and respond to the molecule. In addition, delta-9-THC is less stable than delta-8-THC."
While the scientific research is slim, there is a growing body of literature on Delta-8. People are sharing and compiling experiences and developing plenty of interesting theories. Here is a small sampling of compelling articles about Delta-8.
