Since becoming legal in several states in the USA, cannabis has become very popular. Many prefer the edibles over smoking marijuana because smoking impacts the lungs negatively, whereas consuming it doesn’t. Consuming cannabis also helps with pain and a variety of other ailments due to it processing it through the liver creating THC-3. Marijuana is not consumable; rather it’s not useful directly.
The process of making it editable is to extract the cannabinoids from the plant by boiling it in water with a good amount of butter. The butter is fat, and the cannabinoids are fat soluble, meaning they dissolve in fat slowly, not water. The butter will absorb the oils that boil out of the plant, and the plant material is then discarded, and the butter floats to the top and is then scraped out and baked into foods.
There are many ways to get your CBD’s (cannabinoids that do not make you high but that do help with pain and other ailments) or THC’s (cannabinoids that make you high, relax you, etc.) in baked goods. One popular method is in candy, like white chocolate in Edmonds WA dispensaries. This is a delicious treat and a great way to get your medicine. You can also find cookies, pastries, even drinks like lemonade and cola. Some companies are putting it into cheese and other delicious delicacies as well.
When choosing the right type of edible for your needs, here are a few tips to take along the way to ensuring the right edible is chosen.
Flavor – Enjoying the edible is very important to receive the best results. Good flavors mean continual use. Finding the right flavor may mean trying several different styles and brands.
Packaging – To meet legal regulations, all packaging must include additional information about the product. They must also look professional. Some companies are even going as far as putting more information about their company on the packaging as well to inform the consumer as much as possible.
Dosage – When first starting, you will want to start in small dosages and then work up to higher ones. Choosing small edibles like lemon drop style candy is perfect for beginners.
