Learn how it works in the body

Cannabis works in the body by binding to cannabinoid receptors. These receptors are found in the brain and throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems. When cannabinoid receptors are activated, they alter the release of neurotransmitters in the brain. This can lead to changes in mood, perception, and other cognitive and physiological functions.

When you smoke or vape, you absorb all of the THC and other cannabinoids through your lungs. Because these compounds enter the bloodstream directly, smokers are likely to feel the effects within five to ten minutes.

In the case of edibles, the body must digest the food or drink. It is absorbed through the stomach, then through the intestine and into the liver, where it is broken down and allowed to enter the bloodstream. That means it could take anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours to fully feel the effects.

The type of edibles consumed also plays a role, because the body can break down tiny THC molecules suspended in beverages faster than it can digest the sugars and other ingredients in a heavy baked good. Furthermore, when people drink infused beverages or suck on infused candies, some THC is absorbed through the mouth.

THC is also converted by the liver into a different type of molecule than that which is absorbed by the lungs. That molecule is up to ten times more psychoactive than the THC that smokers experience. So, while THC dose is the most important factor in how high consumers get, believing that eating cannabis may intensify the high. Learn more.

3 First-Time Edibles Cannabis Tips

Edibles are an excellent choice for first-time cannabis users who want to experience the effects without smoking. Who wouldn't want to get high off of brownies, cookies, or candies? Edibles often produce a more intense high, so first-timers should be cautious about how much they consume. Check out our guide to edible dosing as well as a few other pointers to help you have the best experience possible.

1. Homemade Edibles vs. Dispensary Bought

Your first option will be to make them at home or to purchase pre-made edibles from a dispensary. Homemade edibles are relatively simple to prepare. Simply infuse cannabis into butter, olive oil, or any other ingredient before baking. You are free to create a wide range of goods. One advantage of making it at home is that you can tailor it to any diet, such as vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free. In the long run, you'll also save money. When preparing your edibles, exercise caution. Your edible may contain unsafe levels of cannabis if you do not use the proper measurements and equipment.

2. Determining the Right Edible Dosing

It is critical to find the proper dosage. Read this section carefully and make wise choices when making or purchasing edibles. Everyone's reaction to cannabis is unique. The effects will vary depending on potency, previous tolerance to marijuana, and whether or not the user has a sensitive endocannabinoid system.

Cannabis users with no tolerance should begin by consuming edibles containing 1.5 to 5 mg of THC (tetrahydrocannabinol), the psychoactive compound found in marijuana. THC levels can be increased to 60 mg or higher depending on the individual.Edibles are processed differently in the body, but a 1/2 gram joint is roughly equivalent to eating a 10 mg THC edible.

3. Drink a lot of water.

Experienced marijuana users are familiar with the phenomenon known as "dry mouth," which causes them to drink more but is not always indicative of dehydration. "Dry mouth" is a side effect of cannabis use, but doctors point out that feeling thirsty isn't the first thing that happens when the body is dehydrated. 

Drinking water not only relieves the sensation of "dry mouth," but it also keeps you hydrated. Anecdotally, drinking water has aided some users in overcoming negative experiences. Water does speed up the digestion process in general. Everyone, regardless of whether they use cannabis products, should stay hydrated. Approximately 85% of Americans are chronically dehydrated but have no symptoms.
