Detailing Products on Our Dispensary Menu: Cannabis Edibles

Welcome, dear readers and newcomers! Are you ready to explore the exciting world of cannabis? In this post, we’ll look at what cannabis edibles are and how they work — while highlighting some featured products and brands we offer here at Green Koi — Southwest Michigan’s premier cannabis dispensary.

What are cannabis edibles?

In a nutshell, cannabis edibles are tasty products that have cannabis mixed in. They come in a wide variety of delicious options such as chocolates, gummies, and beverages, making them a treat for the taste buds while being potentially therapeutic. They are often celebrated for their unique set of advantages. 

For many people, especially those who do not enjoy inhaling smoke or vapor, edibles provide an easy, discreet, and smoke-free option to consume cannabis. This opens the door to a whole new category of consumer who may be looking to experience the benefits of cannabis without using traditional smoking methods.

To fully understand how cannabis edibles work, it’s essential to explore their journey in our bodies. Contrary to smoked cannabis, which enters the bloodstream directly, edibles follow a more intricate course involving the digestive system. As the edibles pass through the gastrointestinal tract, useful compounds such as THC (the psychoactive compound responsible for the ‘high’) and CBD (the non-psychoactive compound lauded for potential therapeutic benefits) undergo a transformation.

The liver plays a critical role in this process, metabolizing these compounds and converting them into different forms before they finally make their way into the bloodstream. THC, for instance, is changed into a more potent metabolite called 11-hydroxy-THC. This metabolic process distinguishes the effects of edibles, leading to delayed onset times and potentially longer-lasting, more intense experiences.

Factors to Consider

Several factors can influence the absorption and ensuing effects of cannabis edibles. These include the consumer’s metabolism, body weight, tolerance to cannabis, and dietary habits. Always remember that it’s crucial to start low and go slow, especially if you’re new to edibles.
