Comparing THC and CBD Gummies

What’s an Edible?

THC and CBD gummies are both made using distillate from cannabis plants. In the cannabis community, an “edible” refers to a food product that contains a distilled, concentrated form of cannabinoids, usually THC or CBD (or both). Some people make brownies or other food items at home, but the potency can vary widely, so we recommend buying edibles made by professionals.

THC and CBD gummies are a great choice for anyone who wants to avoid smoking or vaping, for obvious reasons. That said, even smokers and vapers appreciate edibles because the effects are unique. This is especially the case with THC. 

Eating an edible is a very different experience than smoking. The effects tend to be more pronounced, and in some cases, even psychedelic with edibles, although taking a smaller dose does allow for more control over the experience. 

THC vs CBD: What’s the Difference?

THC and CBD are both cannabinoids, but they affect users in different ways. They also work synergistically together — many fans of THC find that incorporating CBD into the mix helps to relieve the feelings of anxiety that some users feel after using marijuana on its own. 

The big difference between THC and CBD gummies is that THC gummies get you high. THC, or tetrahydrocannabinol is the active ingredient that makes you feel stoned. THC gummies are more recreational, although there are certainly medical benefits, too. CBD, on the other hand, is used therapeutically to treat a number of physical, mental, and emotional conditions.

Which Type of Edible Should You Choose?

As a company that’s famous for producing the best edible gummies on the market, we want you to select the product that aligns with your usage goals. If you don’t want to experience powerful psychoactive effects, you want CBD. 

Our CBD edibles are made with a 50:1 ratio of THC and 10mg of CBD, so while they do contain a small amount of THC for balance, the effects are subtle. The big difference between our THC and CBD gummies is that CBD is frequently used for relieving anxiety, alleviating physical pain, or just relaxing your body and mind.

On the other hand, THC gummies will provide a very noticeable buzz. If you’re not used to THC edibles, we recommend starting by eating a quarter or half. After an hour or so, you can redose. Again, it’s important to stress that THC edibles are very psychoactive. If that’s your thing, you’re going to love them. Just make sure you’re prepared for the fun that’s in store!
