It is one of the many cannabinoids present in the plant and is known for its psychoactive effects.<\/p>\n<p>Delta 8 THC is less psychoactive than delta 9 THC, which is the most commonly known and studied form of THC. It is believed to have a lower potential for abuse and dependence, and a milder psychoactive effect.<\/p>\n<p>Some people use delta 8 THC for its potential therapeutic effects, including as a pain reliever and to reduce anxiety and stress. However, research on the safety and effectiveness of delta-8 THC is limited. It is not legal in all states and its use may be restricted or regulated by local laws.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that Delta 8 THC is not to be confused with CBD (cannabidiol), which is another cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant that does not have psychoactive effects. While CBD has gained popularity for its potential health benefits, Delta 8 THC is a psychoactive compound that should be used with caution.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re interested in trying Delta 8 THC, there are a few things to keep in mind when shopping for it.<\/p>\n<p>First, make sure to check the legality of Delta 8 THC in your state. While it is legal under federal law, some states have stricter laws regulating it. It is important to be aware of these laws before purchasing Delta 8 THC.<\/p>\n<p>Next, it&#8217;s important to do your research on the brand and supplier you are considering. Look for companies that are transparent about their sourcing and manufacturing processes, and make sure to read customer reviews to get an idea of the quality of their products<\/p>\n<p>This article is written by a THC specialist at Tiki Mike\u2019s THC.
