What is Delta-8?

Delta-8-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-8 THC or Δ8THC) is a minor cannabinoid found in the cannabis plant. It is similar in chemical structure to delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (delta-9 THC), the main psychoactive compound in cannabis, but it has some differences in its effects and potency. Delta-8 THC is believed to have less psychotropic effects than delta-9 THC, although it can still cause some intoxication and may have potential therapeutic benefits. Delta-8 THC is typically derived from hemp or cannabis plants and is available in various forms, such as disposables, edibles, and vape cartridges.
