Fine-Tuning the Perfect High

Fine-tuning the Perfect High through Cannabis Infused Edibles

Cannabis infused edibles are food items that contain doses of cannabis. For those who are not comfortable vaping or smoking cannabis, edibles are a good option to satisfy your craving for a good high. Thanks to the ever-dynamic innovation in cannabis culinary arts, it has actually been reported that edibles make up for one of the fastest growing product categories in recreational or medical dispensaries. Nowadays, infused edibles range from high-quality pastries to gums and mints, beverages, and other treats.

Although smoking is still the most preferred way to consume cannabis, eating infused edibles is quickly turning into one of the most popular method of ingestion. Compared to smoking, consuming edibles means that the chemicals in cannabis is absorbed into the digestive system. In fact, onset may take 2-3 hours due to the fact that food and nutrients are being carried through the liver into the bloodstream.  In the liver, THC metabolizes into 11-hydroxy-THC, which is more psychoactive than the simple THC. This means that it may take longer for the effects to kick in, and the potency gradually increases. Aside from this, the “high” could be felt for a longer period of time with infused edibles.

The strength of edibles are measured differently than other cannabis products such as concentrates and flowers. The edible packaging contain the amount per serving in milligrams, as well as the amount in the entire product in milligrams.

While the idea of a “prolonged high” through infused edibles may seem attractive to a lot of cannabis users, it has some disadvantages. For example, it is easier to overdose through edibles than other cannabis products since users may end up consuming more than what their body could handle while waiting for the effects to kick in. In addition, since basically any food item could be infused with cannabis through oil and butter, measuring the dosage could be inaccurate. This is particularly true for homemade edibles.
