Naturally Occurring Hemp Cannabinoids and Their Effects
Cannabinoids are natural chemical compounds found in hemp plants that affect your mind and body. Understanding their properties and effects can help you choose the hemp-derived products that best suit your needs.
Do you want to feel relaxed and peaceful? Need to boost your mental clarity? Maybe you find it hard to relax and sleep, or you’re looking for a legal way to feel euphoric. The ratios of cannabinoids in hemp-derived products can have different effects on your body and mind.
How can you select the right hemp-derived products for the desired effects? Let’s explore the effects of the six major naturally occurring hemp cannabinoids.
What are the 6 most effective hemp cannabinoids? The six most common and effective cannabinoids found in hemp plants are: Delta 9 THC, Delta 8 THC, CBD, CBG, and CBN.
Here’s a quick overview of these cannabinoids:
- THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol), also known as Delta-9 THC, is the main cannabinoid responsible for the psychoactive effects of the cannabis plant. Federal regulations stipulate that hemp plants must contain less than 0.3% THC by dry weight. This is much lower than traditional cannabis and does not produce a high, making hemp federally legal.
- Hemp producers have developed full-spectrum products that contain a blend of cannabinoids and meet THC requirements, but still include noticeable amounts of THC. These full-spectrum Delta-9 hemp-derived products can offer benefits like relaxation, mood elevation, release of body tension, and euphoria. This is achieved by adjusting the ratio of Delta-9 to other cannabinoids.
- Delta 8 Tetrahydrocannabinol is another naturally occurring THC in the hemp plant, but it is found in very small quantities. Delta 8 THC has a similar chemical structure to Delta 9 THC and produces similar psychoactive effects, including relaxation and mood enhancement, but they are less potent.
Because of the small amount of naturally occurring Delta 8 THC in hemp plants, manufacturers produce it using hemp-derived CBD. It is crucial that the highest quality Delta 8 products, which offer the healthiest, purest, and most potent effects, start with farm-fresh, solventless Delta 8 distillate. Due to higher production costs, very few companies on the market provide solventless extracts.
Uplift CBD is a conscious, homegrown hemp company that uses only premium, solventless extracted Delta 8 distillate in their products. These include Delta 8 chocolate bars and gummies, D8-infused flower, vape cartridges, and disposable vapes.
