Delta-8 Capsules

The cannabis plant is rich in aromatic terpenes and naturally occurring compounds called cannabinoids, the most commonly discussed of which are cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). Delta-8 THC is the less intense isomer of Delta-9 THC, the psychoactive component of hemp. Delta-8 is often concentrated from organic CBD oil and infused into gummies, tinctures, and capsules. Although it isn't found in high enough concentrations to be harvested independently, Delta-8 distillate can be added to CBD flower to make Delta-8 Flower.

Delta-8 THC is milder and less potent than other forms of THC. Whereas Delta-9 induces a powerful high, Delta-8 has less intense psychoactive effects. The cannabinoid is said to provide users with a calm, euphoric experience. There is potential for users of Delta-8 THC to develop a tolerance to it, eliminating the sense of euphoria while still delivering its other effects. This tolerance makes Delta-8 less likely to become overused.

The legality of Delta-8 products depends on where you live and whether you're at least 21. Under the 2018 Farm Bill, hemp-derived Delta-8 THC is legal on a federal level and in most states. Unlike Delta-9 THC, the concentration levels of Delta-8 THC in a product on a dry-weight basis are not federally regulated. Therefore, various forms of Delta-8 THC (such as gummies, tinctures, capsules, and edibles) can be legally purchased by adults 21 and older in most states. However, some state governments have enacted independent bans on all Delta-8 THC products, so before purchasing Delta-8 products, check in with your state laws first.

Drug tests are designed to detect metabolites, specifically those produced by your body after consuming THC. Although hemp-derived Delta-8 is legal on a federal level, a drug test will not show whether metabolites were used to break down Delta-8 THC from hemp or Delta-8 THC from marijuana. Therefore, it is best to avoid consuming any products containing hemp-derived cannabinoids if there's a drug test in the near future.
