How Do Edibles Work?
When you eat an edible, THC is absorbed through your digestive system instead of your lungs. Your liver metabolizes THC and converts it into 11-hydroxy-THC, a compound known for its longer, stronger, and more body-focused effects.
What Makes Edibles Different?
Slower Onset – Unlike smoking, which kicks in within minutes, edibles take 30 minutes to 2 hours to start working.
Longer Duration – Effects can last 4-8 hours, much longer than smoking.
More Intense High – The liver conversion makes THC stronger, so always start low and go slow.
Choosing the Right Edible
There are tons of edible options, including:
Gummies & Chocolates – Sweet and easy to dose.
Baked Goods – Classic pot brownies, cookies, and more.
Drinks & Tinctures – Fast-acting, liquid-based options.
If you’re new to edibles, start with 2.5-5mg THC and wait at least 2 hours before taking more. Over-consuming can lead to an overwhelming experience, so patience is key!
