As the name suggests, Delta 8 THC is a cannabinoid related to THC, the psychoactive cannabinoid found in marijuana. However, unlike Delta 9 THC from marijuana, Delta 8 THC is derived from hemp.
There is a chemical difference between Delta 8 THC and THC from marijuana. THC has a double bond in the ninth position (Delta 9), while Delta 8 THC has a double bond at the eighth position. This slight molecular difference has a big impact on how the cannabinoid binds with receptors in the endocannabinoid system, creating a different effect for the individual.
Activating Receptors
Consuming any cannabinoid creates a change in the CB1 and CB2 receptors in the body. Delta 8 is reported to offer greater comfort throughout the day, as well as helping to create mental calmness and relaxation that allows people to focus and stay clear-headed.
At the same time, Delta 8 produces a feeling of euphoria for the individual. Some people report that it is more of a mental focus and effect rather than the body effect experienced with THC.
Delta 8 THC is about half of the potency of Delta 9 THC, which makes it a possibility to take throughout the day. Using it this way is a popular option for people who want to address stress and anxiety concerns and support their work or studying with greater mental clarity and focus.
